Privacy Policy

Effective date: November 1, 2025

Overview

Your privacy matters. PDFTools is designed to process documents, images, and files directly in your browser using client‑side technology. By default, your files do not leave your device and are not uploaded to our servers.

What We Process

  • Documents and images you open in the tools are handled locally in your browser memory.
  • Temporary object URLs are created for downloads and are revoked after use.
  • No account or login is required to use the tools.

Analytics and Cookies

We do not use invasive tracking. If basic, privacy‑friendly analytics are enabled in the future, they will collect aggregate usage metrics only and never your files or personal content.

Third‑Party Libraries

The app relies on reputable open‑source libraries (such as pdf-lib, pdfjs-dist, jszip, and others) to perform local processing. These run within your browser and do not transmit your files by themselves.

Data Retention

We do not store your documents. Any data resides only in your browser session and is cleared when you refresh the page, close the tab, or revoke object URLs.
