Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 17, 2026
What we don't collect (your files)
We do not operate a backend for file processing. There is no upload endpoint. PDFs and other documents you open in any tool are read, processed, and downloaded again entirely within your browser tab. We never receive a copy of your files, their contents, extracted text, passwords you type into a tool, or any data derived from the document.
We do not require an account, and we do not ask for your name, email address, or other personal information just to use a tool.
What is stored locally on your device
The site may store a few preferences in your browser's localStorage only on your device (for example dark/light theme and language). Those values are not used to process your files and are not required for tools to run.
Traffic analytics (not your documents)
To operate and improve the site we use Cloudflare traffic analytics:
- Edge / zone analytics that come with hosting on Cloudflare Workers (request counts, bandwidth, status codes, rough geography, popular paths). This is standard hosting telemetry.
- Cloudflare Web Analytics (cookieless measurement of page views and performance, when enabled for this site). That may load a small Cloudflare script (for example from
static.cloudflareinsights.com) to report aggregate page metrics.
These analytics are about site traffic (which HTML pages load, roughly from where). They are not about the PDF, Word, Excel, or image files you open inside a tool. There is no analytics packing of file bytes, extracted text, or tool form fields, because that work never leaves your tab.
We do not use third-party advertising trackers, social pixels, or cross-site fingerprinting. See also Cloudflare's privacy policy.
Third-party infrastructure
Loading this site involves a small number of third parties whose technical logs we do not fully control:
- Hosting provider (Cloudflare). Static assets and the Worker are served via Cloudflare. Cloudflare keeps ordinary access logs (IP, requested path, timestamp, user agent) and provides the aggregate analytics described above. Document contents are not part of that. See Cloudflare's privacy policy.
- jsDelivr (CDN). Open-source libraries (pdf.js, Tesseract.js, pdf-lib, and similar) load from jsDelivr. Your browser requests those library files from jsDelivr subject to jsDelivr's privacy policy. We pin versions and verify hashes before execution; we do not control jsDelivr's own logs. Your document files are never sent to jsDelivr.
Neither pathway is used to inspect what you do with a file after the page has loaded.
Children's privacy
This site does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children, because it does not collect personal information at all.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page. Since the core fact (nothing is uploaded) is a property of how the site is built rather than a promise we could quietly break, we don't expect this policy to change often.
