Privacy Policy

Privacy is one of the key distinctive feature of SimplePDF - you may have noticed that there is no cookie banner: that's because we don't use any third-party services to track you.

None

How will we use your data?

  • To allow you to log into your account (if you decide to create one)
  • Improve the product using the events generated by your usage of SimplePDF: otherwise we would not know what works and what does not

How do we store your data?

The data sent to our server is securily stored in a database located in Europe (Frankfurt) and only accessible by whitelisted IP addresses. There are no passwords stored in the database as the login mechanism relies on email addresses and single-time access tokens only.
