Secure PDF tools that run in your browser

PDF20 is built around local browser processing for supported tools, so your documents do not need to be uploaded to PDF20 servers for common PDF tasks.

Why file privacy matters

PDFs often contain contracts, invoices, resumes, IDs, medical forms, school documents, financial records, or internal company files. Uploading those files to a random converter can create unnecessary privacy risk.

What local browser processing means

For supported tools, PDF20 uses JavaScript, WebAssembly, and browser APIs to read and process files on your device. The file content is used for the task in your browser instead of being uploaded to PDF20 servers for conversion.

What PDF20 does not do with your files

PDF20 does not use your selected PDF content for advertising, does not sell document contents, and does not store your files on PDF20 servers for supported local-processing tools.

What data PDF20 may collect

Like most websites, PDF20 may process website data such as cookies, analytics events, IP-based logs, account details, OAuth sign-in information, payments, or support messages. This is separate from the content of the PDF files you choose for local processing.

Safety tips for shared or public devices

  • Avoid opening confidential documents on public computers.
  • Clear browser downloads, history, and site data after handling sensitive files.
  • Do not leave processed files in a shared Downloads folder.
  • Use a trusted personal device for legal, HR, finance, or identity documents.
  • Close the browser tab when you finish a private PDF task.

Security FAQ

Are my PDF files uploaded to PDF20?

For supported tools, no. Files are processed locally in your browser and do not need to be uploaded to PDF20 servers for conversion.

Does local processing mean no internet is used?

The website and tool code load from the internet, and analytics or account features may connect to online services. The selected file content for supported tools is processed locally.

Can browser cache store file data?

Browsers may keep temporary data, generated results, downloads, or local database entries. Avoid sensitive files on shared devices and clear site data when needed.

Where can I read the full policy?

The Privacy Policy explains website data, account data, analytics, advertising, OAuth sign-in, logs, and the distinction between file content and service data.
