File privacy & security

Updated 28 September 2026.

Local file processing

PixelReady's current conversion code reads and processes the files you select in your browser. It does not send their contents to a conversion server. Text recognition also runs on your device. The software must read file contents to carry out your chosen task.

Temporary files and downloads

Selected files and results can remain available while the page is open. The tools release some temporary references when results or files are replaced. Closing the tab ends the active session, subject to browser behavior. We do not promise secure memory erasure, a one-hour deletion timer, or deletion immediately after download. Original files and downloaded copies remain on your device until you delete them.

Website requests

Your browser downloads website code, fonts and recognition resources. Hosting and access services may process connection details such as IP addresses, request times and browser information to deliver and protect the site. This statement describes the conversion tools; it is not a claim that visiting a website creates no connection records.

Connection security

HTTPS uses TLS to protect the connection between your browser and the website endpoint. This is encryption in transit, not a claim of end-to-end document encryption. Device security, browser extensions and downloaded copies are outside the tool's control.

Advertising and analytics

This version has no active advertising or analytics scripts. Before adding these services, this statement and the applicable consent controls must be updated to reflect the services actually used. The tools do not send file contents to advertising services.

Future server-based tools

A future tool that requires a server upload will need to explain that before file selection, including the destination, purpose and retention period. The local-processing description above applies to the current tools.
