Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters when you use PDFJenny. This page explains what information may be handled when you visit our website, use one of our PDF tools, or upload a document for processing.

PDFJenny offers a range of online tools for working with PDF and document files. Because different tools can work in different ways, the information involved in processing may also vary. Our approach is to handle only what is reasonably needed to provide and maintain the service.

Information We Receive

You can browse much of PDFJenny without directly providing personal details such as your name or address.

Like most websites, however, some technical information can be generated automatically when you visit. This can include your browser and device type, operating system, approximate location, pages visited, referral source, IP address and information about how you interact with the website.

We use this type of information to understand how PDFJenny is being used, find technical problems, maintain website performance and improve the experience for visitors.

Files You Upload

When you upload a document to PDFJenny, the file is used to carry out the task you selected, such as converting, merging, compressing or editing a PDF.

Not every PDFJenny tool necessarily processes files in exactly the same way. Some functions may operate within your browser, while others may require temporary processing through server or service infrastructure.

Where temporary processing or storage is necessary, our aim is to keep the file only for the time reasonably required to complete the requested task.

We do not use the contents of uploaded documents for unrelated advertising purposes or sell the contents of your files to advertisers.

Because no online service can guarantee absolute security, we recommend considering the sensitivity of a document before uploading it to any online file-processing service.

How We Use Information

Information generated through the website can help us operate PDFJenny and improve how it works.

For example, we may use it to understand which tools are useful to visitors, diagnose errors, improve loading and performance, protect the website from misuse, measure website activity and support advertising.

Information may also be handled where reasonably necessary to meet applicable legal or regulatory requirements.

Cookies

PDFJenny may use cookies and similar browser technologies.

Some are needed for website functionality, while others may help with analytics, remembering preferences, measuring performance or supporting advertising.

Certain cookies can also be provided by services we use rather than directly by PDFJenny.

Where consent is required, visitors will be given appropriate choices before relevant non-essential technologies are used. Browser settings can also be used to control or remove certain cookies, although doing so may affect some website functionality.

Analytics

We may use Google Analytics or similar analytics services to understand how visitors find and use PDFJenny.

Analytics information can include details such as pages visited, tools used, general geographic area, device and browser information, referral sources and interactions with the website.

We use these insights to understand website performance and identify areas that can be improved.

Advertising and Google AdSense

PDFJenny may display advertising through Google AdSense or other advertising providers.

Google and its advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver and measure advertisements. Depending on a visitor's location, preferences and consent choices, these technologies may also be used to personalise advertising.

Advertising providers may receive information about visits to PDFJenny and interactions with advertisements in accordance with their own policies and applicable privacy requirements.

Where consent is legally required, relevant advertising technologies will be used according to the choices made by the visitor.

Advertising and Privacy Choices

Visitors in certain regions may be shown a consent message that allows them to make choices about advertising and related data processing.

PDFJenny may use a Google-certified Consent Management Platform (CMP) for this purpose, including where required for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland.

Depending on the options available in a visitor's region, users may be able to consent, decline consent or manage their preferences.

These choices can be changed through the privacy or consent controls provided on the website where available.

Third-Party Services

Running an online document platform can involve third-party services for areas such as analytics, advertising, website infrastructure, security and certain technical functions.

These providers may receive or process information where necessary to perform the service they provide to us. Their handling of information may also be governed by their own privacy policies and legal obligations.

PDFJenny does not control the privacy practices of independent third-party websites or services.

Keeping Information Secure

We take reasonable steps to protect information handled through PDFJenny and to reduce unnecessary access to it.

At the same time, internet transmission, browser-based processing and online storage cannot be guaranteed to be completely secure. For that reason, we do not describe any online system as providing absolute or 100% security.

How Long Information Is Kept

Different types of information may need to be retained for different periods.

Our general approach is not to keep information longer than reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was handled, taking into account operational, security and legal requirements.

Where a PDFJenny tool requires temporary server-side file processing, any related retention should be limited to what is reasonably necessary to provide that functionality.

More specific information may be provided for individual tools where their processing requirements differ.

Children's Privacy

PDFJenny is designed as a general-purpose document utility and is not specifically directed at children.

We do not intentionally seek personal information from children where parental or guardian consent would be required by applicable law.

If a parent or guardian believes that a child has provided personal information inappropriately, they can contact us so the matter can be reviewed.

Your Privacy Rights

Privacy rights differ depending on where you live.

Applicable laws may give you rights relating to certain personal information, including requesting access, correction or deletion, or objecting to particular types of processing.

You may also have controls over cookies and personalised advertising through the consent options presented on PDFJenny.

If you would like to make a privacy-related request, please contact us through our Contact Us page.

Links to Other Websites

PDFJenny may occasionally link to websites or services operated by other organisations.

Once you leave PDFJenny, the privacy practices of the external website apply. We recommend reviewing its privacy information if you plan to provide personal details or use its services.

Updates to This Policy

PDFJenny may change over time, and this Privacy Policy may be updated when our services, technology, advertising arrangements or legal requirements change.

When we make changes, the revised policy will be published on this page and the date at the top may be updated.
