Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

PDF Tools ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our browser-based PDF tools.

2. Information We Don't Collect

Unlike most online services, we operate on a strict zero-data principle:

• No file uploads: Your PDFs are processed entirely in your browser using client-side technology
• No personal data: We don't require registration, email, or any personal information
• No server storage: We have no servers to store your files or data
• No tracking cookies: We don't use analytics or tracking technologies

3. Local Processing

All PDF processing occurs directly in your web browser using WebAssembly and JavaScript. Your files never leave your device, and we cannot access them even if we wanted to. This is our core privacy guarantee.

4. Technical Information

We may collect non-identifiable technical information to improve our service:

• Browser type and version (for compatibility)
• Device type (desktop/mobile)
• Anonymous usage statistics (feature popularity)

This data cannot identify you personally and is not linked to any files you process.

5. Third-Party Services

We do not use third-party analytics, advertising networks, or external processing services. Our tools are completely self-contained.

6. Data Security

Since all processing is local, your security depends on your own device. We recommend:

• Keeping your browser updated
• Using secure, private browsing when handling sensitive documents
• Verifying you're on https://pdftools.com before use

7. Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed to children under 7 years old. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
