Your files never leave your device.

1. Overview

PDFImageToWord.com ("PDFImageToWord", "we", "us") provides a free, browser-based tool that converts PDFs and images into editable Word documents. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Our core design principle is privacy: the files you convert are processed entirely inside your browser. We do not upload, store, analyze, or share your documents.

2. Information We Collect

We collect the minimum information required to operate the site. Specifically:

• Files you convert: None. Your PDFs and images are processed locally on your device using JavaScript and WebAssembly. The files are never transmitted to our servers or any third party.
• Preferences: Your selected language and light/dark theme are stored in your browser's local storage. This data never leaves your device.
• Usage analytics: If analytics are enabled in the future, they will be aggregate and anonymized (for example, page views) and will never include the contents of your documents.

3. Local Processing

All OCR (optical character recognition) is performed by Tesseract.js, which runs entirely in your browser. When you convert a PDF, the pages are rendered and read locally. The resulting Word document is generated on your device and downloaded directly to you.

This means sensitive documents — medical records, legal contracts, financial statements — are never exposed to a network request. Your privacy does not depend on our promises; it is enforced by how the tool is built.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

We do not use cookies for tracking or advertising. The only local storage we use is to remember:

• Your preferred language (for example, en, de, fr).
• Your light/dark theme preference.

You can clear this data at any time through your browser's site settings.

5. Third-Party Resources

The converter loads open-source libraries (such as Tesseract.js, PDF.js, and the docx generator) from public content delivery networks. When your browser downloads these libraries, it makes a standard request to the CDN, which may log basic technical information such as your IP address in line with the CDN provider's own policies. These requests do not include your files or any document content.

6. Data Retention

Because your files are processed locally, there is nothing for us to retain. We hold no copies of your documents before, during, or after conversion.

7. Children's Privacy

PDFImageToWord is a general-purpose tool and does not knowingly collect personal information from children. Since no accounts are created and no personal data is collected, there is no personal information to store or protect.

8. Your Rights

Depending on where you live (for example, under the GDPR or CCPA), you may have rights regarding your personal data. Because we do not collect or store personal data, there is typically nothing to access, correct, or delete. If you have questions about how your data is handled, contact us and we will respond promptly.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post any changes on this page and update the "Last updated" date above. Material changes will be highlighted on the site.
