At PDFEase, we operate under the principle of Data Minimization. We only collect the absolute minimum information required to process your documents, ensuring your digital footprint remains as small as possible.
1. Information Collection & Use
File Processing Data: When you upload a document, we process it on our secure servers. This data is handled in volatile memory or temporary ephemeral storage for the sole purpose of executing your requested task (e.g., converting, merging, or compressing).
Communication Data: If you utilize our support channels, we collect your email address and the contents of your inquiry to resolve your request. This information is never used for marketing purposes.
User Identity: PDFEase is an "Account-Free" service. We do not maintain user profiles, passwords, or personal databases.
2. Secure Retention Policy
Our automated cleanup protocol is strictly enforced to protect your privacy:
- ▶ All file transfers use HTTPS (SSL/TLS 1.3) encryption.
- ▶ Your PDFs are processed in cryptographically isolated sessions.
- ▶ Files are automatically deleted within 1 hour after processing—no exceptions.
- ▶ We do not keep backups of your documents or metadata.
3. Cookies & Tracking
To prioritize user privacy, PDFEase does not use third-party tracking cookies, Google Analytics, or advertising identifiers. We utilize only Strictly Necessary Cookies required for site functionality.
In the future, we may add lightweight, privacy-friendly analytics to improve the tools—we will update this policy accordingly.
4. Data Sharing & Compliance
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your documents or personal information to outside parties. We comply with major global privacy standards, including GDPR and CCPA.
Because we delete files automatically, the "Right to be Forgotten" is built into our core architecture by default.
