Privacy Policy – Your Files Stay on Your Device
The short version: We don't see, store, or upload your files.
Our Privacy Promise
Unlike other PDF tools, we do not transfer your files to our servers. All processing (compression, merging, masking) happens locally in your web browser. This means your PDFs and images are processed using your device’s CPU, not our servers. Your documents literally never leave your device.
No Server Uploads
When you "upload" a file on GoPDFGo, it is simply being loaded into your browser's memory. We do not have a backend database storing your PDFs, images, or credit card statements.
No Human Access
Since we don't have your files, we can't read them. There is no admin panel where our team can view what you are working on. Total privacy by design.
What We Collect
We do not require accounts or logins, and we never collect your personal identity or the contents of your documents. We do not run our own tracking or analytics cookies. To see how our pages perform in Google Search, we use Google Search Console, which reports only anonymous, aggregated data and does not place cookies on your device.
Does GoPDFGo store my files?
No. Your files are processed locally in your browser and are never uploaded, stored, or logged on our servers.
Cookies and Advertising
GoPDFGo itself does not set tracking cookies, and your files are processed entirely in your browser. To keep our tools free, however, we show ads through Google AdSense— and Google’s advertising technology does use cookies. We want to be transparent about exactly what that means.
What cookies are used
A cookie is a small text file stored in your browser. The only cookies on GoPDFGo come from Google and its advertising partners — these are “third-party” cookies, not ours. Google uses them, along with similar technologies, to serve and measure ads, limit how often you see the same ad, and detect fraud. Where personalized ads are shown, Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
How to control or opt out
- Manage or turn off personalized ads at Google Ads Settings.
- Opt out of third-party ad cookies at aboutads.info/choices or youronlinechoices.com.
- You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. Blocking ad cookies will not affect any GoPDFGo tool, because every tool runs entirely on your own device.

Children’s Information
GoPDFGo does not knowingly collect any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13. If you believe that your child has provided personal information on our website, please contact us and we will promptly remove such information from our records.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page, and continued use of the website indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
