Privacy Policy

Your PDF Never Leaves Your Device

pdftoimage.app processes all PDF files entirely within your browser using Mozilla's PDF.js library and the HTML Canvas API. Your PDF files are never transmitted to any server, never stored on any external system, and never seen by anyone other than you. The moment you drop a PDF into the converter, it is read directly from your local filesystem into browser memory. All rendering, image encoding, and ZIP packaging happens on your device. Nothing is uploaded.

You can verify this yourself: open your browser's DevTools (press F12), navigate to the Network tab, then drop your PDF and click Convert. You will observe zero outbound file transfer requests to any server during the entire conversion process. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads — the converter will continue to work perfectly because it has no dependency on any external server once the page assets are cached.

This is not a policy commitment about what we do with files we receive. We structurally cannot access your PDF because we have no upload endpoint, no file storage, and no server-side processing pipeline. Zero data retention is guaranteed by architecture, not just policy.

Why This Matters for Sensitive Documents

PDFs routinely contain information that should never pass through a third-party server: legal contracts and NDAs, medical records and test results, financial statements and tax documents, business proposals with confidential data, and personal identification documents. Most online PDF tools — including well-known services — upload your file to their infrastructure to process it. Even services that claim to delete files immediately after processing create a window of exposure during transit and processing.

pdftoimage.app eliminates that window entirely. If you are handling documents subject to HIPAA, attorney-client privilege, financial confidentiality obligations, or simply documents you would not want a stranger to read, this tool is designed for you.

Data We Do Not Collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit:

• Your PDF files or any of their contents
• The images generated from your PDF
• Your name, email address, or any personal identifiers
• File names or metadata from your documents
• IP addresses associated with document conversions
• Any information about the content of files you process

No account is required to use this tool. We do not ask for an email address, we do not set user-specific identifiers, and we have no record of what you have converted.

Analytics (Google Analytics 4)

We use Google Analytics 4 to collect aggregated, anonymized usage data — specifically page view counts, session counts, approximate geographic region (country level), and browser/device type. This data helps us understand how the tool is being used so we can improve it.

Google Analytics does not receive any information about your PDF files, the images you generate, or any document content. The analytics data we collect is limited to standard website interaction metrics: which pages were visited, how long sessions lasted, and what browser and device type was used. No personally identifiable information is collected through our analytics configuration.

Google Analytics sets cookies in your browser to distinguish sessions. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Advertising (Google AdSense)

This site displays advertisements served by Google AdSense (Publisher ID: ca-pub-5035661017594256). Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites. These cookies are set by Google, not by pdftoimage.app, and are governed by Google's own privacy policies.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your browsing activity. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings. For more information on how Google uses data when you visit sites that use its advertising services, see Google's Privacy & Terms.

GDPR and CCPA

Because we do not collect personal data beyond standard analytics (page views, session counts, country-level geography), our data footprint is minimal. We do not sell personal information. We do not share personal information with third parties beyond Google Analytics and Google AdSense, whose data practices are governed by Google's own GDPR and CCPA compliance frameworks.

Under GDPR, the legal basis for our analytics processing is legitimate interest in understanding aggregate usage patterns to improve the service. You may opt out of analytics tracking at any time using the Google Analytics opt-out tool linked above. Under CCPA, we do not sell personal information and do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising beyond what Google AdSense manages under its own compliance obligations.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy occasionally as the service evolves. Material changes will be reflected by an updated date at the top of this page. We will not retroactively apply policy changes to weaken protections that existed when you used the service.
