Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 2, 2025

Our Privacy Commitment

At PDFZap, your privacy is our top priority. We have designed our service with privacy at its core. Unlike traditional PDF tools that require uploading your files to remote servers, PDFZap processes all your documents directly in your web browser.

Key Point: Your PDF files never leave your device. All processing happens locally using modern browser technology.

Information We Collect

Files and Documents

We do NOT collect, upload, or store any of your PDF files or documents. All file processing occurs entirely within your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your files remain on your device at all times.

Usage Analytics

We may collect anonymous usage statistics to improve our service, including pages visited, features used, and general browser information. This data is aggregated and cannot be used to identify individual users.

Cookies

We use minimal cookies necessary for the website to function properly. We do not use tracking cookies or share any data with third-party advertisers.

How We Process Your Files

What We Do

  • Process files entirely in your browser
  • Use modern JavaScript APIs for PDF manipulation
  • Allow instant download of processed files
  • Clear all file data when you close the tab

What We Never Do

  • Upload your files to any server
  • Store your documents in any database
  • Share your files with third parties
  • Access your file contents for any purpose

Data Retention

Since your files are processed locally and never uploaded to our servers, there is no data retention period for your documents. Once you close your browser tab or navigate away from PDFZap, any file data in memory is automatically cleared. We have no ability to access or recover your files.

Third-Party Services

We may use the following third-party services:

  • Vercel: Website hosting and analytics
  • Cloudflare: Content delivery and security

These services do not have access to your PDF files as all processing is done locally.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Use our services without creating an account
  • Process your files with complete privacy
  • Know that your documents are never stored or shared
  • Contact us with any privacy concerns

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
