There is no law that requires providers to scan users private documents, even uploaded.

However, if they do review the material and see child porn they're obligated to report it.

Any chance you have a good link explaining this? I saw the parent comment earlier and wanted to add this. But I only recently learned that the US federal government cannot require or incentivize providers to scan user's private documents, so didn't want to post without clear sources.

It's covered in 18 U.S. Code § 2258A - Reporting requirements of providers
