Our Commitment to Security & Privacy

Last Updated: March 24, 2026

When you upload a file to a document tool, you need to know how that file is handled. This page explains the basic security and privacy measures used by TextToPDF in plain language.

Encrypted Data Transfer

File uploads, downloads, and page requests are sent over encrypted connections. That reduces the risk of someone reading the traffic while it moves between your browser and the service.

Short Term File Handling

TextToPDF is designed around temporary processing rather than long term document storage. The exact handling depends on the tool you use.

Text to PDF

Text entered into the editor or uploaded through a text file is processed to create the PDF you requested. The service is not built as a permanent document locker.

PDF to Text

Searchable PDF files are processed so the existing text can be returned as editable output. The file is used for extraction and is not treated as public content.

Scanned PDF and OCR

OCR jobs may use temporary storage and background processing while the file is being read. That can include short term cloud storage while the job is running and while the final result is being returned.

Browser Side Draft Saving

The Text to PDF editor may save draft content in your own browser through local storage. That feature is meant to protect your work if the page refreshes before download. This draft data stays on your device until you clear it, replace it, or remove browser storage.

Access Control and Internal Handling

TextToPDF is designed to keep document handling limited to the systems needed to process the request. The service is not set up around public sharing of uploaded files, and routine use does not depend on manual review of document contents.

Logging and Abuse Prevention

Like most online services, TextToPDF may keep technical logs related to requests, system health, rate limiting, and abuse prevention. These logs help us detect failures, protect the service, and respond to misuse.

Security Limits

No online service can promise perfect security. That includes document tools. If a file contains highly sensitive legal, financial, medical, or private information, you should decide carefully whether an online service is appropriate for that file.
