Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 21, 2026. This policy explains how GoToPDF handles files, cookies, advertising, and contact messages.

Local File Processing

GoToPDF's PDF tools are designed to process files locally in your web browser. When you choose a PDF or image, the file is read by JavaScript running on your device. The file is not uploaded to GoToPDF servers for merging, splitting, rotating, compression, or conversion.

Because processing happens on your own device, performance can depend on your browser, available memory, file size, and document complexity. If a file is very large or password protected, the tool may fail before producing an output file.

Information We May Receive

If you contact us by email, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your email address, message, browser details, and screenshots. We use that information to respond to your request, fix bugs, improve pages, and handle privacy questions.

Like most websites, hosting providers and browser infrastructure may process basic technical information such as IP address, user agent, referring URL, requested pages, and timestamps for security, delivery, and troubleshooting.

Cookies and Advertising

GoToPDF may display advertising, including Google ads. Third parties may place and read cookies on your browser, use web beacons, or use IP addresses as a result of ad serving on this website. Google may use data from partner sites to personalize or measure ads. You can learn more at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Depending on your region, Google or its partners may also provide consent, personalization, and advertising preference controls.

Third-Party Libraries

GoToPDF uses client-side JavaScript libraries such as pdf-lib and PDF.js to perform PDF operations in the browser. These libraries are loaded to provide the tool functionality. External content delivery networks may receive standard network request information when those scripts are loaded.

Children's Privacy

GoToPDF is a general-audience utility website and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Data Retention

Files selected in the PDF tools remain on your device and are not retained by GoToPDF. Email messages may be retained as long as needed to respond, maintain records, prevent abuse, or improve the website.
