Privacy Policy
Effective Date: January 2026
At pdfcanada.ca, we believe that your business is your business. Because we process files locally on your device using WebAssembly technology, your documents never actually upload to our servers.
We don't use cookies to track you across the web. We don't sell your data. We don't even ask for your email. It's just you and your PDF.
Local Processing Guarantee
We do not operate backend servers for file processing. Everything happens right here in your browser using WebAssembly.
Information We Collect
We collect minimal information necessary to provide our service: basic usage analytics (page views, general location by country), and any information you voluntarily provide when contacting us. We do NOT collect or store your uploaded files—all file processing happens locally in your browser.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
While we do not use cookies for file processing, third-party services on our website may use cookies and similar tracking technologies. These include advertising partners who help support our free service.
Third-Party Advertising
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website and other sites on the internet.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings at https://www.google.com/settings/ads. Alternatively, you can opt out of third-party vendor cookies by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page at https://optout.networkadvertising.org.
Your Privacy Rights (GDPR/CCPA)
Depending on your location, you may have the right to: access the personal data we hold about you, request correction of inaccurate data, request deletion of your data, opt out of personalized advertising, and lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Since we process files locally and collect minimal data, most user data requests can be addressed by simply clearing your browser cache.
Children's Privacy
Our service is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age.
