Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 2026

Your privacy is fundamental to our mission. Learn how our 100% client-side platform handles your data with complete transparency.

100% In-Browser

Processing happens in client memory using WebAssembly & JS.

Zero Server Uploads

No files or document contents ever leave your physical device.

AdSense Compliant

Clear cookie disclosures with opt-out mechanisms provided.

1. Local File Processing & Zero-Upload Guarantee

Your privacy is our priority. All PDF processing (merging, splitting, compressing, etc.) is executed 100% locally within your web browser. We do NOT upload, store, or view your files on any server. Your data never leaves your device.

How Client-Side Processing Protects You
  • PDF files are loaded directly into browser RAM and rendered on local HTML5 Canvas elements.
  • No backend API endpoints, cloud file stores, or database records exist to receive your files.
  • All memory structures are automatically cleared when you close or reload the browser tab.

2. Cookies and Advertising

We use cookies to save your UI preferences. Additionally, third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visits to our site and other sites across the Internet. You can manage or opt out of personalized advertising using the following official resources:

3. Aggregate Usage Statistics

We may collect anonymous aggregate statistics such as page views, device types, and browser metrics to optimize performance and responsiveness. No personal identification information or document contents are ever recorded or associated with these statistics.

4. Data Security Standards

We employ modern browser security sandboxing and secure HTTPS transmission for all static web assets. Because file manipulation occurs entirely in client-side WebAssembly and JavaScript, your documents are shielded from external network interception.

5. Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage users to periodically review this page for the latest information on our privacy practices.
