Privacy Policy

Overview

Welcome to Extract Your PDF ("we," "our," or "us"), accessible at extractyourpdf.in. We provide a free, browser-based tool that allows you to extract pages from PDF files and convert them into PNG, JPG, or JPEG image formats — all without requiring you to upload your files to any server.

This Privacy Policy describes what information we collect when you visit and use our website, how we use that information, and what choices you have regarding your data. By using Extract Your PDF, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

We encourage you to read this policy carefully. If you have any questions or concerns, you can reach us through the contact information provided at the end of this document.

Information We Collect

We collect only the minimum amount of information necessary to provide and improve our service. The information we may collect falls into two categories: information you provide directly and information collected automatically.

Information You Provide Directly: Extract Your PDF does not require you to create an account, register, or provide any personal details such as your name, email address, or payment information in order to use our core tool. If you choose to contact us — for example, through our developer's contact link — you may voluntarily provide your name and contact details, which we will use solely to respond to your inquiry.

Information Collected Automatically: Like most websites, we may automatically collect certain technical information when you visit our site. This may include:

• Your IP address and approximate geographic location (country or region level)
• Your browser type, version, and operating system
• The pages you visit on our site and how long you spend on each page
• Referring URLs (the page that linked you to ours)
• Device type (desktop, tablet, or mobile)
• Date and time of your visit

This information is collected through standard web analytics tools and server logs. It is used in aggregate, anonymised form to understand how visitors use our site and to improve our user experience. We do not use this information to identify you personally.

How We Use Information

We use the limited information we collect for the following purposes:

• To operate and maintain the website: Ensuring the site loads correctly, functions as expected, and remains secure.
• To analyse and improve our service: Understanding which features are most used, identifying technical issues, and making informed product decisions to improve the experience for all users.
• To respond to inquiries: If you contact us, we use your contact details to respond to your message.
• To detect and prevent abuse: Identifying unusual traffic patterns, bot activity, or attempts to misuse the service.
• To comply with legal obligations: Where required by applicable law, we may need to retain or disclose certain information.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for their marketing purposes. We do not use your information for targeted advertising, profiling, or any form of automated decision-making that would significantly affect you.

We will never use the technical information collected about your visit to infer anything about the contents of any PDF files you process using our tool, because — as described in detail below — those files never reach us in the first place.

File Processing & Local Storage

This section is arguably the most important part of this Privacy Policy, because it addresses what happens to the PDF files you work with when using our tool.

Our tool uses JavaScript libraries that run entirely on the client side (your device) to render PDF pages and convert them into image files. The conversion process, page selection, and image export all happen within your browser tab. Our web server has no involvement in any of these operations beyond serving you the initial HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files that make up the web page.

This means:

• We cannot see the contents of your PDF documents.
• We do not store copies of your files on our servers.
• We do not log the filenames of any documents you process.
• We do not know how many pages your documents contain or what they look like.
• When you close the browser tab, all data related to your session — including the loaded PDF and any generated images — is immediately cleared from your device's memory by the browser. Nothing persists.

This architecture is by design. We built Extract Your PDF with a privacy-first approach precisely so that you can use our tool with complete confidence, even for sensitive documents such as contracts, medical records, financial statements, or personal papers.

Because no file data ever reaches our servers, we have no ability to delete your files upon request — they simply do not exist on our end. Your files remain entirely under your control at all times.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Our website may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience and to gather analytics data. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a website. We use the following types of cookies:

• Essential Cookies: These are necessary for the website to function correctly. They do not collect personal information and cannot be disabled without affecting site functionality.
• Analytics Cookies: These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting anonymised information about pages visited, time spent on the site, and similar metrics. We may use third-party analytics services for this purpose (see the Third-Party Services section).
• Preference Cookies: These may be used to remember your preferences, such as output format selections, to improve your experience on return visits.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website. Most modern browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies through their privacy or security settings.

We do not use cookies to track you across other websites, serve you advertisements, or build a profile of your interests outside of our own service.

Third-Party Services

Our website may incorporate services provided by third parties to help us operate and analyse our service. These third parties may collect information about your visit in accordance with their own privacy policies. The types of third-party services we may use include:

• Web Analytics: Services such as Google Analytics may be used to collect anonymised usage statistics. These services may set their own cookies and collect data such as your IP address, browser type, and page visits. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
• Content Delivery Networks (CDNs): We may serve JavaScript libraries or fonts through CDNs. When your browser loads resources from a CDN, the CDN provider may log your IP address as part of standard network operations.
• Web Hosting Provider: Our website is hosted by a third-party provider. This provider may have access to standard server logs, including IP addresses and access timestamps, as part of normal hosting operations.

We do not share your personal information with any third parties for their own commercial purposes. Any data sharing with third parties is limited to what is necessary to operate and improve our website and is governed by appropriate data processing agreements.

Third-party services linked from our website — such as our developer's Instagram contact page — are governed by their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites.

Data Security

We take the security of your data seriously. We implement a range of technical and organisational measures to protect the limited information we collect against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include:

• Using HTTPS (SSL/TLS encryption) for all connections to our website, ensuring data transmitted between your browser and our server is encrypted in transit.
• Keeping our website software and dependencies up to date to address known security vulnerabilities.
• Limiting access to any server-side data to authorised personnel only.
• Regularly reviewing our security practices as technology and threats evolve.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you become aware of any security issue related to our website, please contact us immediately.

Given that your PDF files never leave your device, the greatest protection for your documents is inherently built into our architecture. The best way to keep your files private is to use our tool, which is designed precisely for this purpose.

Your Rights

Depending on your country or region of residence, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data. These rights may include:

• Right to Access: You may have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Right to Correction: You may have the right to request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
• Right to Deletion: You may have the right to request that we delete personal data we hold about you, subject to certain legal obligations.
• Right to Restrict Processing: You may have the right to request that we limit how we use your personal data in certain circumstances.
• Right to Object: You may have the right to object to our processing of your data for analytics or other purposes.
• Right to Data Portability: You may have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format.

As noted throughout this policy, the personal data we hold about visitors is very limited — primarily anonymised analytics and server logs. Because we hold so little identifiable data, fulfilling most requests is straightforward. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information below.

If you are located in the European Union or United Kingdom, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority if you believe we have not handled your data in accordance with applicable law.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or for other operational reasons. When we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information. Your continued use of Extract Your PDF after the posting of any updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.

If we make any significant changes to this policy — particularly changes that would meaningfully affect your rights or the way we handle your data — we will make reasonable efforts to inform you, such as by displaying a notice on our website.
