Privacy Policy

Introduction

FitMyPDF provides a free PDF compression tool. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your choices. Our primary design goal is to process PDFs in your browser so your files stay on your device.

How Your PDF Is Processed

The current public FitMyPDF compression workflow runs inside your web browser using client-side processing. When you use the PDF compression tool, the PDF content is not uploaded to FitMyPDF for processing or stored by FitMyPDF on the server.

Your browser still connects to our website to load the application itself, and normal website requests may create standard access logs as described below. Those requests are separate from the PDF content being processed in your browser.

If we introduce a public feature in the future that requires PDF files to be uploaded for server-side processing, we will clearly identify that workflow and update this policy to explain how those files are handled.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors use the site. Google Analytics collects information such as:

• Pages visited and time spent on each page.
• Browser type, device type, and operating system.
• Approximate geographic location (city-level).
• Referring website or traffic source.

This data is anonymized and aggregated. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. We do not send PDF content, file names, or file metadata to Google Analytics.

Google's use of this data is governed by the Google Analytics Terms of Service. You can learn how Google uses data at Google's partner site policy.

Cookies

We use cookies only through Google Analytics to track site usage and improve our service. These are analytics cookies, not advertising cookies. You can control cookies through your browser settings or use the Google Analytics opt-out described below.

Advertising (Future)

We may display advertisements via Google AdSense in the future. If AdSense is activated, it may use cookies and web beacons to serve personalized ads based on your browsing activity. This Privacy Policy will be updated at that time, and we will add a consent management platform (CMP) for visitors in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland as required by applicable law.

As of now, no advertising cookies or ad scripts are active on this site.

Third-Party Vendors

The following third-party services may process data when you use this site:

• Google Analytics — site usage analytics (collects anonymized browsing data as described above).
• Hosting infrastructure — delivers the website and may process standard request information such as IP address, browser information, request path, and timestamps for security and operations.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

Children's Privacy

FitMyPDF is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, contact us so we can delete it.

Data Retention

Analytics and infrastructure data may be retained according to our service settings and the policies of the providers involved. The current public browser compression workflow does not send PDF content to FitMyPDF for storage or retention.

International Users

Our analytics and infrastructure providers may process website-related information in countries other than the one where you live. Their handling of that information is governed by their own privacy policies and applicable data-transfer requirements.

Your Choices

You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on. You can also block cookies through your browser settings. Note that the PDF compression tool works entirely in your browser and does not require cookies or analytics to function.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes take effect when posted on this page. If the changes are material, we will provide notice (such as a banner on the site).
