Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how PDF App Tools collects, uses and protects information when you use our website.

Last updated: November 2, 2026

Placeholder notice: this policy is a starting template. Review it with a qualified professional and update it before enabling file processing or advertising.

1. Information we collect

We aim to collect as little information as possible. Depending on how you use the website, this may include:

  • Usage information such as pages visited, browser type, device type and approximate location derived from your IP address, collected through server logs or analytics.
  • Information you send us, for example when you email us through the Contact Us page.

We do not require you to create an account and we do not ask for your name to use any tool.

2. Files you use with our tools

Our working tools (JPG to PDF, PNG to PDF, PDF to JPG, PDF to PNG, Merge PDF, Split PDF, Compress PDF, Rotate PDF, Delete PDF Pages, Add Watermark, Add Page Numbers and Protect PDF) process your files entirely inside your web browser, on your own device. Passwords you enter in Protect PDF are also used only in your browser and are never sent to us. Your files are not uploaded to our servers, we never see their contents, and nothing is stored once you close or reload the page.

On tool pages that are not working yet, files you select are only read by your browser to show their name and size. If a future tool ever needs to process files on a server, this section will be updated first to explain where files are processed, how long they are kept and when they are deleted. We will not sell your files or use their content for advertising.

3. Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We may use essential cookies needed for the website to work, and, where permitted, cookies for analytics and advertising. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings.

4. Advertising

We may display advertisements provided by third parties such as Google AdSense. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies to show ads based on your visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your browsing. You can learn more and manage personalised advertising in your Google Ads Settings. Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before such cookies are used.

5. How we use information

  • To operate, maintain and improve the website and its tools.
  • To understand which tools are most useful.
  • To respond to messages you send us.
  • To keep the website secure and prevent abuse.

6. Sharing of information

We do not sell personal information. We may share limited information with service providers that help us run the website (for example hosting, analytics or advertising partners), or when required by law.

7. Data retention and security

We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes described above and use reasonable technical measures to protect it. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.

8. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal information, or to object to certain processing. To make a request, contact us at moorly@pdfapptools.com.

9. Children's privacy

The website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page shows when it was last changed.
