Privacy Policy

Introduction

At PDFin, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our PDF tools and services.

Client-Side Processing

PDFin processes all PDF files directly in your web browser using client-side JavaScript. This means:

• Your files are never uploaded to our servers
• All processing happens locally on your device
• Your files never leave your computer or mobile device
• We have no access to your documents or their contents

Information We Don't Collect

Because all processing happens in your browser, we do not collect:

• Your PDF files or their contents
• Personal information from your documents
• File names or metadata
• Usage patterns or file processing history

Information We May Collect

We may collect minimal information for website functionality:

• Basic analytics (page views, tool usage) - anonymized
• Browser type and version for compatibility
• Theme preference (light/dark mode) - stored locally
• Authentication information (if you choose to create an account)

Cookies and Local Storage

We use browser local storage to:

• Remember your theme preference (light/dark mode)
• Store authentication tokens (if you log in)
• Improve your user experience

No cookies or local storage are used to track your PDF files or document contents.

Third-Party Services

PDFin may use third-party services for:

• Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) for JavaScript libraries
• Analytics services (anonymized data only)
• Authentication services (if you choose to create an account)

These services do not have access to your PDF files or document contents.

Data Security

Since all PDF processing happens in your browser, your files are never transmitted over the internet to our servers. This provides the highest level of security and privacy for your documents.

Children's Privacy

PDFin is safe for users of all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Since we don't collect PDF files or personal data, this is not a concern with our service.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
