Introduction

At PDFyogi, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our PDF processing tools and services. We believe in transparency and want you to understand exactly how your data is handled.

Information We Collect

Personal Data

We collect minimal personal information. This may include your IP address, browser type, device information, and general location data for analytics and service improvement purposes. We do not require account creation or personal registration to use our services.

Usage Data

We collect anonymous usage statistics such as which tools are used, processing times, and general usage patterns. This data helps us improve our services and understand user needs better. No personal or identifying information is included in this data.

File Data

Your uploaded files are processed entirely in your browser using WebAssembly technology. Files never leave your device and are not uploaded to our servers. We do not have access to, store, or process your file contents on our servers.

How We Use Your Information

  • To provide and maintain our PDF processing services
  • To improve our tools and develop new features based on usage patterns
  • To analyze usage trends and optimize performance
  • To provide technical support and respond to user inquiries

Data Security

Browser-Based Processing

Our most important security feature is that all PDF processing happens directly in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to our servers, eliminating the risk of data breaches or unauthorized access to your documents.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect any data we do collect. This includes encryption, secure servers, and regular security audits.

Data Retention

Since your files are processed locally in your browser, we do not retain any file data. Anonymous usage statistics are retained for up to 2 years for analytical purposes. You can request deletion of any personal data we may have collected by contacting us.

Under various privacy laws including GDPR and CCPA, you have certain rights regarding your personal data:

  • Right to Access: You can request information about what personal data we have collected about you.
  • Right to Rectification: You can request correction of any inaccurate personal data we hold.
  • Right to Erasure: You can request deletion of your personal data under certain circumstances.
  • Right to Data Portability: You can request a copy of your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format.

Third-Party Services

We use minimal third-party services to operate our website:

Analytics Services

We may use privacy-focused analytics services to understand how our website is used. These services collect only anonymous, aggregated data and do not track individual users.

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. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
