Just don't use an Adobe PDF viewer (the default PDF document viewer in Ubuntu works fine):
"II. Phorm has established industry-leading standards regarding storage, retention and deletion of data.
Storage, retention and use of consumer data are currently key concerns in the online advertising industry. Phorm’s
systems collect browsing information such as URLs visited, search terms entered, OS version, relevant keywords of a
particular page and randomly-generated unique IDs. Importantly, however:
§ This specific data cannot be accessed by our ISP partners.
§ Even this non-personally-identifiable information is automatically purged from the production system immediately.
(Research and debug logs may be kept on a separate system for a maximum of 14 days).
§ Once the system purges this data, it is not possible for us to release it, either accidentally or deliberately."
