Privacy Policy

Information We Don't Collect

Unlike many online services, PDFDrive is designed with privacy as the top priority:

• We do not upload, store, or access your PDF files
• We do not collect personal information like names, emails, or addresses
• We do not track your document content or processing activities
• We do not require user registration or accounts

How Our Tools Work

All PDF processing occurs entirely within your web browser using JavaScript:

• Files are loaded directly into your browser's memory
• Processing happens locally using client-side libraries
• Results are made available for download directly from your browser
• No data is transmitted to our servers during processing

Website Analytics

To improve our service, we collect minimal, anonymous usage data:

• Page views and navigation patterns (via Google Analytics)
• General location data (country/region level only)
• Browser type and device information
• No personally identifiable information is collected

Cookies and Local Storage

We use minimal cookies and browser storage for essential functionality:

• Essential cookies for website functionality
• Analytics cookies to understand usage patterns
• Local storage for temporary file processing
• No tracking cookies or third-party advertising cookies

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

• Google Analytics: For anonymous website analytics
• Google AdSense: For displaying relevant advertisements
• Vercel: For website hosting and content delivery

These services have their own privacy policies and may collect data as described in their respective policies.

Data Security

Since we don't collect or store your files, there's no risk of data breaches:

• All processing happens locally in your secure browser environment
• Files are automatically cleared from browser memory when you close the tab
• Our website uses HTTPS encryption for all communications
• No file storage means no risk of unauthorized access

Your Rights

Because we don't collect personal data, most privacy rights are automatically protected:

• No personal data to access, modify, or delete
• No user accounts to manage or close
• Complete control over your files and processing
• Right to use our services anonymously

Children's Privacy

Our services are safe for users of all ages since we don't collect personal information. However, we don't specifically target children under 13, and we encourage parental supervision for younger users.

International Users

Since all processing happens locally in your browser, your data never crosses borders through our services. Our website is accessible globally, but no personal data is transferred internationally.

We may update this privacy policy occasionally. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last modified" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
