We respect user privacy and believe that people should understand what happens when they use an online file-processing service. This Privacy Policy explains the types of information that may be collected, how uploaded files are handled, how information may be used, and the choices and responsibilities users have when using Online File Editor.

By accessing or using Online File Editor, you acknowledge this Privacy Policy.

If your file contains sensitive or confidential information, do not upload it to Online File Editor.

Use an appropriate offline application, locally controlled system, enterprise platform, or specialized secure service instead.

1. Information We May Collect

The information collected depends on how you use Online File Editor.

Account Information

If you register for an account, we may collect information such as:

• your name or account name;

• email address;

• account identifier;

• authentication information;

• account type;

• subscription status;

• registration information;

• login timestamps;

• account preferences;

• processing limits; and

• information required to administer your account.

Authentication credentials should be protected through appropriate technical safeguards.

2. Files You Choose to Upload

Some Online File Editor tools require a supported file to be uploaded so that the requested operation can be performed.

For example, a user may upload a file to:

• compress a PDF;

• merge PDF documents;

• convert a PDF to another format;

• convert a document to PDF;

• resize an image;

• compress an image;

• crop or rotate an image;

Files are processed for the purpose of completing the operation selected by the user.

Uploading a file does not transfer ownership of the file to Online File Editor.

3. Temporary File Processing

Online File Editor is designed as a temporary file-processing service.

It is not intended to function as permanent cloud storage, file backup, document archiving, or long-term file hosting.

Uploaded source files and generated output files are automatically scheduled to expire after the temporary processing and download period used by the website.

Users are responsible for downloading any processed output they wish to keep before it expires.

Always keep your own original copy of an important file.

Automatic deletion is intended to reduce unnecessary file retention, but no internet-based system can guarantee absolute security or instantaneous deletion from every temporary technical process.

4. File-Processing Information

We may process or retain limited technical information related to a file-processing job without permanently storing the contents of the source or output file.

This may include:

• approximate file size;

• file type;

• processing duration;

• technical error details;

• account associated with a processing request;

• quota information;

• security information; and

• abuse-prevention information.

This information may help us operate, secure, troubleshoot, maintain, and improve Online File Editor.

This information may be used for security, troubleshooting, fraud prevention, service administration, abuse prevention, performance monitoring, and service improvement.
