Privacy Policy

The short version

Image tools (compression, WebP→PNG, PDF merging) run entirely inside your browser — your files never leave your device. Document-to-Markdown conversion requires server-side processing: your file is sent to our processing engine to generate the Markdown. We do not store your files or your results on our own servers.

Files

• Local tools. All image tools and PDF merging run locally using WebAssembly in your browser. Nothing is uploaded — there is no server involved at all.
• Document conversion. PDF and DOCX conversion happens on our processing infrastructure, because high-accuracy parsing requires a vision-language model that cannot run in a browser tab. Your file is transmitted to our parsing provider, the result is returned to you, and we do not retain copies on our servers. Keep this in mind for highly sensitive documents.
• Result links. Conversion results are delivered through time-limited download links served by our infrastructure and expire automatically.

Data we collect

Very little. We use aggregate, cookie-free analytics (Cloudflare Web Analytics) that does not build user profiles and does not require a cookie banner. We do not run advertising trackers. We do not offer accounts, so we collect no sign-up data. Free usage is limited per network address to prevent abuse.

Third parties

This site is hosted on Cloudflare (content delivery, analytics, rate limiting). Document parsing is performed by our parsing provider (MinerU). No other third parties process your data.
