I had camscanner and at some time it started trying to upload my pdfs to the cloud. It seems it was bought by tencent around that time.

At first the app store privacy policy was a broken link. Later they got it to work, and it basically used broken english to say: we can collect anything.

uninstall and never looked back.

One tip:

The iOS native Notes app can scan documents into a .pdf file.
