By using the Service, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Files You Process

When you use any of our tools, your files are processed entirely in your browser. Your PDF documents, images, and other files are never uploaded to our servers. All editing, converting, compressing, merging, splitting, and other operations happen locally on your device using client-side JavaScript libraries. Your files never leave your computer.

1.2 Automatically Collected Information

When you visit our website, we may automatically collect certain technical information, including:

• Your IP address (used for analytics and abuse prevention)
• Browser type and version
• Operating system
• Referring URL
• Pages visited and time spent on the site
• Date and time of your visit

1.3 Cookies

We use essential cookies and local storage to maintain tool settings and preferences on your device. Third-party advertising partners may also use cookies to serve relevant ads. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• Provide the Service: Deliver our browser-based file tools and maintain site functionality
• Improve the Service: Analyze aggregate usage patterns to improve performance and user experience
• Display Advertising: Show relevant advertisements to support the free availability of the Service
• Security: Detect and prevent fraudulent activity, abuse, and security threats
• Communication: Respond to inquiries submitted through our contact page

3. File Processing

Your privacy is our top priority. Here is how we handle your files:

• All file processing happens 100% in your browser — no files are uploaded to or stored on our servers
• Operations such as PDF editing, merging, splitting, image conversion, compression, cropping, watermarking, background removal, and QR code generation are performed locally using client-side JavaScript libraries (including PDF.js, pdf-lib, and others)
• Output files (edited PDFs, converted images, generated QR codes, etc.) are created in your browser and downloaded directly to your device
• We never have access to, read, or analyze the content of your files
• No copies, backups, or temporary files of your documents exist on our infrastructure at any time

4. Third-Party Services

4.1 Advertising

We may display advertisements from third-party ad networks to support the free availability of our Service. These advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to collect information about your browsing activity across websites to serve personalized ads. This information does not include any files you process with our tools.

4.2 Content Delivery Networks

We use third-party CDNs (content delivery networks) to serve JavaScript libraries required for file processing, including PDF.js, pdf-lib, JSZip, and others. These services may collect standard web server logs.

5. Data Retention

• Your files: Never stored on our servers — all processing is client-side and data is discarded when you close the browser tab
• Server logs: Standard web server access logs may be retained for up to 30 days for security and debugging purposes
• Contact inquiries: Messages submitted through our contact page are retained only as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry

6. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical measures to protect your information, including:

• All file processing is performed client-side in your browser, so your documents and images are never transmitted to our servers
• File type and size validation is enforced in the browser before processing
• The website is served over HTTPS to protect data in transit

Because your files never leave your device, the risk of server-side data breaches affecting your documents is eliminated.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right to Access: Request information about the data we hold about you
• Right to Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data from our server logs
• Right to Opt-Out: Manage cookie and advertising preferences through your browser settings
• Do Not Track: We respect Do Not Track browser signals where technically feasible

8. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete such information.

9. International Users

If you are accessing the Service from outside the country where our servers are located, your browsing data may be transferred to and processed in a different jurisdiction. By using the Service, you consent to this transfer and processing. Note that your files are never transferred — they remain on your device at all times.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.
