Privacy Policy

At JPDFConvert, your privacy is of the utmost importance to us. We understand the sensitivity and confidentiality of the documents you process using our platform, and we are committed to ensuring that your data remains entirely private, secure, and under your control. This policy outlines the practices we follow to protect your information and how we maintain transparency with every user who trusts our service.

No Uploads, No Storage
One of the defining features of JPDFConvert is that our PDF conversion tool is entirely browser-based. This means that your files are never uploaded to our servers. All file processing takes place locally within your browser using JavaScript. As a result, we do not store, access, or transmit your files to any external server. Once you complete your conversion and download the output PDF, no record or trace of your file remains — not on our servers and not in our systems.

Minimal Data Collection
We do not collect personal data unless you explicitly provide it. For example, if you choose to contact us through our contact form or email, we may receive your name, email address, and message content. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry and is never shared, sold, or used for marketing purposes. We do not use tracking pixels, fingerprinting, or invasive analytics tools that identify users.

Cookies and Analytics
JPDFConvert does not use cookies for tracking or personalization. We may use basic, non-identifying analytics such as page load times and total visit counts to monitor the performance of our service. These metrics are entirely anonymous and do not associate with any personal identifiers. We intentionally limit the scope of analytics to maintain your anonymity.

Third-Party Services
Our site does not rely on third-party scripts or cloud-based APIs to handle your files. All features operate natively within your browser, ensuring there’s no data leakage. If we ever introduce optional third-party features in the future (e.g., for premium functions or integrations), we will disclose this clearly and allow users to opt-in.

Ad Networks and Monetization
JPDFConvert may display ads in the future to support our free service. These ads, if introduced, will be provided by networks that comply with industry-standard privacy regulations like GDPR and CCPA. We will ensure that users can review and control their ad preferences. No user data will be shared with advertisers.

Children’s Privacy
Our service is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect or store personal information from children. If we discover that a user under 13 has provided personal information, we will delete that data immediately and prevent further use of our services by that user.

Your Rights and Choices
Since we do not collect data passively or require registration, your control over your personal information is built into the design of our service. If you do contact us and later wish to remove your information from our system, simply email us at haekzzang@naver.com and we will honor your request promptly.

Security Measures
Although we don’t store files, we take website security seriously. JPDFConvert is protected with HTTPS encryption to secure communication between your browser and our platform. We conduct regular security reviews and updates to ensure our code and dependencies are free from vulnerabilities.

Transparency and Policy Updates
This privacy policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or our own practices. Any updates will be clearly posted on this page with the date of modification. We encourage users to check this page periodically to stay informed.

Contact Information
If you have any questions, concerns, or feedback regarding this privacy policy, feel free to reach out through our Contact page or email us directly at haekzzang@naver.com. We value open communication and are happy to assist with any inquiries related to your privacy.

Conclusion
Your trust is central to everything we do at JPDFConvert. We’ve built our platform around the principles of transparency, minimalism, and security. By not storing files, avoiding invasive tracking, and operating entirely within your browser, we deliver a level of privacy that many online tools cannot match. We’re proud to offer a secure, simple, and privacy-respecting solution for your PDF conversion needs.

1) Data Flow, End-to-End

When you choose files, your browser creates in-memory references to the file data. JPDFConvert reads those bytes locally, renders images to an off-screen canvas or parses DOCX content, then assembles the PDF entirely within your device. No upload endpoints are contacted for file contents, and no background sync occurs. Closing or refreshing the page frees memory managed by your browser’s garbage collector.

2) What We Don’t Collect

• No account, login, or password is required.
• No document contents, filenames, or metadata are transmitted to our servers.
• No fingerprinting identifiers (e.g., canvas fingerprinting) are used.
• No cross-site tracking pixels or beacons are embedded in the conversion flow.

3) Minimal, Anonymous Telemetry

To keep the site fast and stable, we may measure page load times, generic device class (e.g., “mobile/desktop”), and aggregate error counts. These metrics are anonymized and cannot be linked to a person or a specific document. We keep telemetry separate from any user communications you voluntarily send us.

4) User Communications & Retention

If you email us or use the contact form, we store your message only for the period needed to respond and maintain support quality. On request, we will promptly delete your message and any associated logs. We do not enrich, sell, or share communications with third parties.

5) Security Hardening

• Transport: All pages are served over HTTPS/TLS to protect integrity and confidentiality.
• Dependency hygiene: Third-party libraries are monitored for CVEs and updated as needed.
• Isolation: File handling runs in the browser; third-party scripts, if any, are sandboxed and have no access to your files.
• Content Security Policy (CSP): We employ restrictive policies where feasible to reduce script injection risks.

6) Your Controls

• Use private/incognito windows for sensitive one-off conversions.
• Clear recent files or downloads in your OS if the output is confidential.
• Apply a password to exported PDFs in your PDF editor when needed.
• Verify you’re on the correct domain before selecting files.

7) Children’s Privacy (Details)

We do not design features that encourage children to submit personal data. If a parent or guardian contacts us regarding a minor’s information provided via email, we will delete it without delay and restrict further correspondence unless explicitly requested by the guardian.

8) Future Features & Opt-In

If we introduce optional integrations (e.g., selecting a file from a cloud drive), they will be strictly opt-in and transparent. Access tokens, if used, will be limited in scope and duration, and file bytes will still be processed locally whenever technically possible.

9) Incident Response

If we detect a security issue affecting the website experience (e.g., dependency vulnerability or script injection), we will remediate immediately, rotate relevant keys, and provide a plain-language notice on our site describing scope and fixes. Because we don’t store user files, incident blast radius is inherently constrained.

10) International Considerations

Our approach minimizes international data transfer risk by avoiding file uploads. If you contact us from outside our hosting region, your email will be routed by your provider’s standard infrastructure. We do not move or mirror your message to third-party processors for marketing or profiling.

11) Regulatory Mapping (Overview)

• GDPR: We are data-minimizing by design and process personal data only when you contact us. Lawful basis: legitimate interests (support) or consent (when explicitly given).
• CCPA/CPRA: We do not sell or share personal information. Users may request deletion of communications.
• LGPD, PIPEDA, etc.: The same principles apply: minimal collection, purpose limitation, security safeguards, and deletion on request.

12) Advertising Boundaries

If ads are enabled in the future, they will not interact with the file conversion flow. Any ad components will operate in isolated contexts and comply with applicable consent frameworks. You’ll be able to adjust ad preferences where applicable.

13) Practical Tips for Sensitive Work

• Load the page, then go offline before selecting files (client-side conversion still works).
• Save output to an encrypted folder (e.g., BitLocker, FileVault) or a secure vault.
• For redaction, ensure you permanently remove text layers—not just overlay boxes.
• Use strong, unique passwords for PDFs shared externally.

14) Changes to This Policy

We may update this page to reflect product or legal changes. Material updates will be clearly indicated with a revision date. Your continued use of the service after changes take effect signifies acceptance of the updated terms.
