Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 29, 2026

This page is maintained by PDF Powerhouse to explain how our free browser-based PDF tools handle your data and what third-party services we use.

Your PDFs stay on your device

PDF Powerhouse processes PDFs entirely in your web browser using client-side libraries such as pdf-lib and pdf.js. Your files are never uploaded to our servers, and we cannot access the contents of any document you open, edit, merge, split, or convert.

What we collect

  • Account information (optional): If you sign in, we store only the authentication details required to identify you for MCP server access. We do not collect passwords.
  • Usage data: We may collect anonymous, aggregated statistics about which tools are used and how the app performs. This data does not include your PDF contents or personal identifiers.
  • Cookies and advertising: We use Google AdSense to display ads. Google may use cookies and similar technologies to serve personalized ads based on your visit to this and other sites.

Google AdSense

PDF Powerhouse participates in the Google AdSense program. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings. You can also learn more about how Google uses data at Google Advertising Policies.

Data retention and deletion

Because PDF processing happens locally, we do not retain your documents. Any optional account data is retained only as long as needed to provide access to authenticated features. You can request deletion of your account data by contacting us.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you. To make a request, email us at the address below with enough detail to identify your account.

This policy may be updated from time to time. Continued use of PDF Powerhouse after changes means you accept the revised policy.
