Privacy
Every tool reads and writes your PDF inside the browser tab you have open. The file is never uploaded. These pages run no usage data scripts, set no tracking cookies, and ask for no account. The only thing that ever leaves your browser on purpose is an email you write yourself.
Your files stay yours
Every tool runs in your browser. The file you choose is read by code on this page and never sent away for processing, for measuring, or for any other reason.
It is not written to disk by us. Nothing of it remains once you close the tab. There is no feedback attachment, no error upload and no background sync that could carry it out.
No usage data on these pages
Most sites watch you use them. This one does not. There is no usage data script on any page, no counter of tool runs, no session recording, no A/B testing and no advertising network.
Your visits, your settings, your run times and your errors are known only to your own browser. That is not a setting you must switch on; it is the absence of the code that would do the watching.
If measuring ever starts here - for example to learn which tools people actually use - this page will name the tool, list exactly what it records, and offer a way out, before the first event is ever sent. Until then, the previous paragraph is the whole policy.
What the network carries
Serving a web page means your browser asks for files, and those requests travel like any web traffic. The pages are served through Cloudflare, so Cloudflare sees the standard facts of each request - your IP address, the page asked for, the time - under Cloudflare's own terms.
Nothing on this site adds to that: no usage data beacon, no third-party widget, no font or script fetched from another company's server.
You do not have to take any of this on trust. Open the developer tools, switch to the network panel, clear it, then choose a file and run a tool.
Every request that leaves is listed there with its size and destination: this site's code, and nothing carrying your document.
A shorter version of the same test: load a tool page, then disconnect from the network before you choose a file.
The tool still runs and still produces a download, because everything it needs is already in the tab.
A tool that uploaded your file could not do that.
| What | Leaves your browser? |
|---|---|
| Your PDF and everything in it | Leaves your browser?Never - file, name, text, metadata, previews, output |
| Tool runs, settings, timings | Leaves your browser?Never - nothing measures them |
| Pages you open | Leaves your browser?Cloudflare sees standard request facts while serving them |
| Email you send us | Leaves your browser?Only the message you write yourself |
The mail you choose to send
The one deliberate way out is [email protected].
Whatever you put in that message - the tool page, the error text, your browser - is what we receive, and nothing else.
Write in any language; never attach the document itself. The support page explains what helps and what to leave out.
No account, no name
No tool needs an account, and none asks for your name. Without accounts there is no user database to leak, to sell or to be ordered to hand over. An email address exists only inside messages you send, and only for the reply.
Metadata inside your PDF
A PDF can carry your name, your software, your file path and the date you made it, whether or not you meant it to.
That data stays inside the file, which stays with you.
A tool that finds and strips it runs in this tab as the Privacy scan tool, and Remove metadata takes it out before you send the file to a stranger.
Asked often
- Do you upload my PDF?
- No. Opening, processing, checking and downloading all happen in your browser tab. Disconnect from the network after the page loads and the tool still works, which an uploading tool could not do.
- What usage data do you run?
- None. No usage data script, no run counter, no session recording, no cookies set by us. If that ever changes, this page will name the tool and what it records before anything is sent.
- Does Cloudflare see anything?
- Cloudflare serves the pages, so it sees standard request facts - IP address, page, time - as it does for any site it serves. That traffic carries no document content, because no request here ever contains it.
- Is there an account or a login?
- No, and there is nothing to log into. No name is asked, no database of users exists.
- Can I delete everything you hold about me?
- There is nothing to delete unless you wrote to us. Your files never arrived, your runs were never recorded. An email you sent can be deleted on request - just ask from the same address.
