Privacy Policy
Your files never leave your device
The PDF Encryption Analyzer on this site reads your file entirely within your browser using the JavaScript File API. No data is sent to any server. No file contents, passwords, or metadata are transmitted or stored.
Information We Collect
We do not collect personal information. Like all websites, our server receives standard HTTP request logs (IP address, browser type, page visited, timestamp). These logs are used only for security and performance monitoring and are not sold or shared.
Cookies & Analytics
This site may use Google Analytics to understand traffic patterns (pages visited, geographic region, device type). This data is aggregated and anonymous. We may also display Google AdSense advertisements, which may use cookies as described in Google's privacy policy. You can opt out of personalized ads through Google's Ad Settings.
Third-Party Links
This site may contain links to third-party services. When you visit those sites, their own privacy policies apply. We are not responsible for their data practices.
Data Retention
Since we don't collect personal data, there is nothing to retain or delete. Server access logs are automatically rotated and deleted after 30 days.
GDPR / CCPA
We do not process personal data in a way that would trigger GDPR or CCPA data subject rights obligations. If you have any privacy concerns, contact us via the information below.
