š Key privacy commitment
Your files are processed locally in your browser and never uploaded to our servers (with the narrow exception of server-side conversion tools described in Section 2). We collect no personal information.
1. Overview
PDF and Image + ("we", "our", "the site") is a free online tool suite for PDF and image processing available at pdfandimage.com. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what we never do with your data.
The short version: your files never leave your device. We do not collect, store, or process any of the documents or images you work with on this site.
2. Your Files
All PDF and image processing on PDF and Image + happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. When you upload a file to a tool, it is loaded into your browser's memory and processed there. No file data is transmitted to our servers.
Exception: a small number of tools that require server-side conversion (such as PDF to Word, Word to PDF, PDF to Excel, and PDF to PowerPoint) send your file to a self-hosted processing server. In these cases:
⢠Your file is transmitted over an encrypted HTTPS connection.
⢠It is processed immediately and the result is returned to your browser.
⢠The file is never stored on disk and is deleted from server memory immediately after conversion.
⢠No logs of the file content are kept.
3. Analytics & Usage Data
We use the following analytics services to understand how the site is used in aggregate:
Google Analytics (Google LLC) ā We use Google Analytics 4 to collect anonymised usage statistics such as page views, session duration, and geographic region. Google Analytics sets cookies on your browser. IP addresses are anonymised. You can opt out via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Ahrefs Web Analytics ā We use Ahrefs Web Analytics for privacy-friendly traffic measurement. Ahrefs does not use cookies and does not collect personal data.
Neither service receives any of your file content. All data collected is aggregate and anonymised.
4. Advertising
PDF and Image + is supported by display advertising provided by Google AdSense. Google may use cookies and similar technologies to show you relevant ads based on your browsing history.
You can manage your ad personalisation settings at g.co/adsettings or opt out of personalised advertising via the NAI opt-out page at optout.networkadvertising.org.
