Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2025-11-23

This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your data when you use My PDF Tools at https://mypdftools.xyz. Our goal is to keep things as simple and privacy-friendly as possible.

1. Data controller

The data controller is the operator of this website (referred to as “we”, “us” or “our”), located in the Republic of Croatia. If you have any questions about this Policy, you can contact us at: contact@mypdftools.xyz.

2. What data we process

2.1. PDF files and images you upload

When you use our tools (e.g. merge, compress, split, rotate, image to PDF), you upload PDF files and/or images to our server so we can process them. These files stay on our server only as long as needed to perform the requested operation and to provide you with a download link.

We automatically delete temporary files after a short period (typically around 1 hour). We do not manually review your files and we do not use them to train models, build profiles, or for marketing.

2.2. Technical and usage data

When you visit the website, our servers automatically log some technical data, such as your IP address, browser type, approximate location (based on IP), date and time, and the pages you access. This is standard web server logging and is used for security, debugging, and basic statistics.

3. Cookies and analytics

The service is designed to work without tracking cookies or invasive analytics. We may use strictly necessary cookies (for example, to keep the site secure and functioning), but we do not use cookies to track you across other sites.

If we add privacy-friendly analytics in the future (for example, simple aggregate usage statistics), we will update this Policy to describe them clearly.

4. Legal basis (GDPR)

If you are in the EU/EEA, including Croatia, we process your data under the following legal bases:

• Performance of a contract – to provide the PDF tools you request (processing files, generating a download link, etc.).
• Legitimate interests – to keep the service secure, prevent abuse, and maintain and improve the site in a way that does not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.

5. How long we keep your data

• Uploaded files: temporarily stored for processing and download, then automatically deleted after a short period (around 1 hour).
• Server logs: kept for a limited time for security and diagnostics, then deleted or anonymized.

6. Sharing your data

We do not sell your data. We may share limited technical data with service providers (for example hosting providers) when necessary to operate the service. These providers are bound by data processing agreements and cannot use your data for their own purposes.

7. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you, or to object to certain types of processing. Because we intentionally store as little personal data as possible, these rights are usually limited to server logs and any data you voluntarily send us (for example by email).

8. Contact

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or your data, contact us at: contact@mypdftools.xyz.

This Privacy Policy is provided for convenience and does not replace legal advice. If you operate the service commercially, consider reviewing this document with a qualified lawyer.
