Privacy Policy
The short version
We do not collect, store or sell your personal data. Your files never leave your device — all processing happens entirely in your browser. We use Google AdSense to display ads, which uses cookies. That's it.
Who we are
PlopPDF is part of PlopTools — a collection of free, browser-based utility tools. PlopTools is operated by individuals based in Australia.
If you have any questions about this policy, you can reach us at serviceploptools@gmail.com.
What data we collect
We collect no personal data directly. Specifically:
- We do not ask you to create an account or log in
- We do not collect your name, email address or any personal information
- We do not store the files you upload or process — they never leave your browser
- We do not track individual users across sessions
All file processing on PlopTools happens client-side — meaning entirely within your browser on your own device. No file data is ever transmitted to our servers or any third-party server.
