Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Free PDF Worker ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our practices. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our website and services at freepdfworker.com.

By using our services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use our services.

2. Information We Collect

Automatically Collected Information

When you visit our website, we may automatically collect:

3. How Your Files Are Processed

This is what makes Free PDF Worker different from other online PDF tools:

• Local Processing: All PDF operations (merging, splitting, compressing, etc.) happen entirely in your web browser using JavaScript.
• No Uploads: Your files are never uploaded to our servers or any third-party servers.
• No Storage: We do not store, cache, or retain any of your files or their contents.
• Memory Only: Files are loaded into your browser's memory temporarily and are cleared when you close the page or navigate away.

This means that even we cannot access your files. Your documents remain completely private.

4. Cookies and Tracking

Essential Cookies

We may use essential cookies that are necessary for the website to function properly. These cookies do not track your personal information.

Analytics

We may use privacy-focused analytics tools to understand how our website is used. These tools:

• Do not use cookies for tracking
• Do not collect personal information
• Anonymize IP addresses
• Do not share data with third parties

No Advertising Trackers

We do not use advertising cookies or tracking pixels. We do not sell or share your data with advertisers.

5. Third-Party Services

Our website may use the following third-party services:

• Content Delivery Networks (CDNs): We use CDNs to deliver JavaScript libraries (like pdf-lib and PDF.js) that power our tools. These CDNs may log access requests but do not have access to your files.
• Web Fonts: We use Google Fonts to display text. Google may collect usage data according to their privacy policy.

We carefully select third-party services that respect user privacy.

6. Data Security

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your information:

• HTTPS encryption for all website traffic
• Regular security updates and monitoring
• Limited access to any collected data

Since your files are processed locally and never transmitted to our servers, the primary security responsibility for your documents lies with your own device and browser security.
