The short version: SpeedyPDF runs entirely in your web browser. The PDF and image files you open, edit, sign, or redact are processed on your own device and are never uploaded to us or anyone else. We don't have a server that receives your documents, and we can't see, store, or share them.
Your files
Every operation — editing text, redacting, signing, merging, compressing, converting, adding watermarks — happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your documents never leave your device. When you close or refresh the page, anything you were working on is gone from memory; we keep no copy.
Accounts & personal data
There are no accounts. We don't ask for your name, email, or any personal information, and we don't have a database that could store it.
Code libraries (CDN)
To work, the app loads a few open-source code libraries (for reading and writing PDFs) from a content delivery network (Cloudflare's cdnjs). This downloads program code to your browser — it does not send your documents anywhere. As with any request for a file on the internet, the CDN may record standard technical information such as your IP address and which library was requested. Some optional features (password-protecting or unlocking a PDF) load an additional library the first time you use them; again, only code is fetched, never your file.
Hosting logs
Our host (Cloudflare) may keep standard server logs — such as IP addresses and timestamps — for security and to keep the site running. This is ordinary web-server activity and is not linked to your documents.
Cookies, analytics & ads
This site currently uses no advertising and no analytics or tracking cookies. If we ever add advertising or analytics in the future, those services may use cookies, and we will update this policy and (where required) ask for your consent first. Your files will still never be uploaded — that will not change.
Children
SpeedyPDF is a general-purpose tool and is not directed at children.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update the date above. Significant changes (such as introducing ads) will be reflected here before they take effect.
