Privacy
Your documents are processed on your device
PDF Atelier runs its PDF engine inside your browser. Opening, editing, converting, redacting and exporting all happen locally, so the file bytes never leave your machine to run a tool.
What we never receive
The following never reaches our servers, on any plan:
- Your PDF or image files, or any part of their content.
- File names, page text, form values, signatures or redacted text.
- Passwords you type to open or protect a document — they are used in memory only.
What product analytics contains
We record which tool was used and whether it finished, plus coarse buckets such as an approximate page count or duration range. Payload keys are whitelisted in code, so document-derived values cannot be added by accident.
- Examples of what is sent: tool identifier, success or failure, page-count bucket, duration bucket.
- Examples of what is not sent: file names, text, images, thumbnails, coordinates of redactions.
What an optional account stores
An account is only needed to buy or restore a plan. It stores your email address, your plan and its validity, and per-day usage counters used to apply limits. It does not store your documents or any document metadata.
Payments
Card details are handled by our payment provider. PDF Atelier receives a customer reference and the state of your plan, never card numbers.
Deleting your data
You can request deletion of your account and its billing records from the contact page. Because documents are never uploaded, there is nothing document-related to delete on our side.
