Overview
PaperKit PDF Tools ("we", "this site") provides free browser-based PDF utilities at tools.friendsempirecorp.com. This policy explains what information is — and is not — collected when you use the site.
Information we collect
We do not require an account, and we do not ask for your name, email address, or any personal details to use the tools.
How your files are handled
All PDF processing happens locally in your web browser using JavaScript. The files you select are read into your browser's memory, processed on your device, and the result is downloaded back to your device. Your files are never uploaded to our servers, and we never see, store, or share their contents.
Cookies
This site does not set its own tracking cookies.
Advertising and Google AdSense
We may show advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google uses cookies — including the DART cookie — to serve ads to you based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info/choices.
Third-party links
Our pages link to external resources (for example, font and JavaScript libraries served from content delivery networks). Those third parties have their own privacy policies.
Children's privacy
This site is a general-audience utility and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The effective date at the top will always show the latest revision.
