Privacy at TechRex
Privacy Policy
At TechRex Free PDF Editor (pdffreeeditor.com), your PDFs stay yours. This page explains how we handle files, analytics, cookies, and any data related to your use of our free PDF tools.
No account required
Use all tools without creating an account or sharing personal details.
Files stay with you
Editing and core PDF conversion run in your browser; we don't store your PDFs on our servers.
No tracking profiles
Analytics are aggregated and used only to understand overall usage, not to identify you.
Minimal cookies
Limited cookies for analytics and functionality. You can block them and still use the tools.
This Privacy Policy applies to all tools on pdffreeeditor.com, including but not limited to Edit PDF, Merge PDF, Sign PDF and our converters (for example PDF to Word and PDF to Image).
1. File handling
For most operations, file processing happens directly in your browser using client-side technology:
- Your PDFs, images, and documents are processed locally on your device for editing, annotating, signing, and saving as PDF.
- We do not create a permanent copy of your files on our servers for these core editing features.
Some optional conversions (for example exporting a PDF to other file types such as Word, PowerPoint, or image formats) may require temporary server-side processing to complete the conversion. When this happens:
- Files are transmitted over an encrypted connection (HTTPS).
- Files are processed only for the purpose of completing your requested conversion.
- We do not use your files to build advertising or tracking profiles.
2. Personal data & accounts
TechRex Free PDF Editor is designed to work without user accounts:
- No sign-up or login is required to use the tools.
- We do not ask for your name, address, or payment information when you use the editor.
- The only personal data we receive is what you voluntarily choose to send us, for example when you contact us by email.
If you email us, we will see your email address and any information you include in the message. We use this only to respond to your inquiry and improve our services.
3. Analytics & usage data
We use privacy-conscious analytics (such as Google Analytics with IP anonymization) to understand how pdffreeeditor.com is used and to improve performance.
- Analytics data is aggregated and does not allow us to identify individual users.
- Typical data points include pages visited, approximate region (based on anonymized IP), device type, and browser type.
- We do not use analytics to track you across other websites.
4. Cookies
Our site uses minimal cookies to keep things running smoothly:
- Functional cookies may be used to remember basic preferences (for example, last used tool).
- Analytics cookies help us measure visits and feature usage in an aggregated way.
You can block or clear cookies in your browser settings at any time. Most features of TechRex Free PDF Editor will continue to work even with cookies disabled.
5. Third-party services
We may use trusted third-party services for:
- Analytics and performance measurement.
- Optional file conversions (for example, converting a PDF to another format).
These providers are only allowed to process data on our behalf for the specific purpose we use them for (such as analytics or conversion) and under appropriate data protection safeguards.
6. Data retention
Because tools work without accounts, we generally do not maintain ongoing profiles or histories of your activity.
- Files processed entirely in your browser are not stored by us.
- Files sent for optional conversions are kept only as long as needed to perform the conversion and deliver the result.
- Emails and support messages may be stored for a reasonable period to help us respond, improve features, and maintain security and abuse prevention.
7. Your choices & rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights such as access, correction, or deletion of personal data we hold about you (typically limited to support correspondence).
To exercise these rights, or to ask a question about your privacy, email us at contact@pdffreeeditor.com or help@pdffreeeditor.com.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect new features, legal requirements, or improvements to our services. When we make changes, we will update the “Privacy Policy” page on pdffreeeditor.com. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
