When using the PDF.js viewer with documents hosted on Amazon S3, it is unclear if mozilla will stake a claim on the data and documents that are being viewed. We had originally tried to use Google Drive Viewer, but after reading a section of their privacy policy (shown below) determined it to be a non-starter.

Will mozilla make similar claims to google regarding the documents that we present our viewers through the PDF.js viewer.

pdf.js is a local pdf viewer - a document isn't rendered by a webserver like with google docs & mozilla does not raise claims regarding documents you render with pdf.js.

Thanks Philipp. I am still a little unsure what it means to be a local pdf viewer, but it is good to see that mozilla does not follow the same trend as google has regarding its viewer.
