Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how PdfDojo ("we," "us," or "our") handles information when you use our website at pdfdojo.com and related PDF tools and document processing services we offer in the browser or through your account (the "Services"). By using the Services, you agree to this policy.
This is a template policy. Have it reviewed by qualified legal counsel before relying on it for compliance.
Information we collect
Account and billing. If you create an account or subscribe, we may collect identifiers such as name, email address, and payment-related information processed by our payment provider (we do not store full card details on our servers).
Usage data. We may collect technical data such as IP address, browser type, device type, and approximate location derived from IP, plus logs related to product usage for security, debugging, and billing.
Files you upload. When you upload PDFs or other documents for processing (for example, merge, split, or compress), we use those files only to perform the operation you requested. Our product is designed to limit how long files are retained after processing; details may depend on your plan and configuration. Refer to your agreement or in-product documentation for retention specifics applicable to your account.
