Privacy

Short version: your PDFs never leave your device. This page explains exactly what happens (and what doesn't) when you use PDF Text Extractor.

Your documents

• All PDF parsing (pdf.js) and OCR (Tesseract.js) run locally in your browser. There is no backend, no API, no upload endpoint — the site is static files served by GitHub Pages.
• Nothing you drop, paste, extract, copy or download is ever transmitted, stored, or seen by us.
• Close the tab and everything is gone.

Cookies and tracking

• No cookies, no analytics, no fingerprinting, no ads, no third-party trackers of any kind.

Network requests the app does make

For transparency, these are the only network requests involved:

• jsDelivr CDN — on first load, the open-source libraries (pdf.js, Tesseract.js) and OCR language data are downloaded, then cached by your browser. These requests contain no information about your documents. jsDelivr's own privacy policy applies to them.
• GitHub Pages — serves this website's static files; GitHub's privacy statement applies to standard web server logs.

Verify it yourself

The entire application is open source under the MIT license — read the code on GitHub, or open your browser's network inspector while extracting: you'll see zero requests carrying your document.
