1. Information We Collect

We collect a limited amount of information to operate and improve our Service:

• Files you upload: When you use a tool that processes a file (such as our PDF or image tools), the file is uploaded to our servers temporarily, processed, and automatically deleted within 24 hours.
• Usage data: We automatically collect information such as your IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring website, using standard server logs and analytics tools.
• Account information: If you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and password (stored securely using one-way hashing).
• Cookies: We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our Service and store certain information. See our Cookie section below for details.

We use the collected data for the following purposes:

• To provide, operate, and maintain our tools and Service
• To process the files you submit through our tools and return the result to you
• To improve, personalize, and expand our Service
• To understand and analyze how you use our Service

3. File Storage & Deletion

Files uploaded to our PDF, image, and document tools are stored only temporarily on our servers for the sole purpose of processing your request. All uploaded files and their generated outputs are automatically and permanently deleted from our servers within 24 hours. We do not access, view, share, or use the content of your files for any purpose other than completing the requested operation.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our Service and hold certain information. Cookies are small files placed on your device. We use the following types of cookies:

• Advertising cookies: If we display advertisements (e.g. via Google AdSense), third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, some portions of our Service may not function properly.

5. Third-Party Services
