How EditPDFly handles files and the limited technical information needed to operate the site.
Last updated: September 2, 2026
PDF Editor
Opening, previewing, and editing a PDF in the Online PDF Editor occur in your browser. The editor does not upload the file merely to display or edit the page.
If you choose Export to Word from the editor, the uploaded source PDF follows the temporary conversion process described below. Normal PDF test export remains in the browser.
PDF to Word conversion
The converter uploads the selected PDF to create a DOCX. Smaller files go directly to the conversion function. Larger files are uploaded directly from your browser to private temporary Vercel Blob storage so the service can support PDFs up to 20 MB without routing the file through a size-limited application request.
Private temporary files require authenticated server access and use randomized paths. The source Blob and temporary working directory are deleted when the conversion response finishes or the conversion fails. If a browser is closed after upload but before conversion begins, automated deletion cannot be guaranteed immediately. Infrastructure backups and security logs, if enabled by the hosting provider, follow that provider's retention controls.
Information we process and why
The service processes a selected PDF only to provide the editing or conversion action you request. Basic request and error information may be processed to keep the service secure, diagnose failures, and prevent abuse.
Technical logs
Hosting and application logs may contain request time, route, response status, browser details, and error diagnostics. Product analytics should not record file names, document text, file contents, document screenshots, or signed file URLs.
Cookies and accounts
The current tools do not require an account. EditPDFly does not use an uploaded PDF to train an AI model.
Support messages
If you email support, the message and address are handled by the configured email provider. Do not send confidential documents unless a secure support method has been agreed.
Service providers and security
EditPDFly relies on hosting and email providers to operate the site. They process only the information needed for their service. Reasonable technical safeguards are used, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security.
Your choices
You can choose not to upload a document, remove identifying details before processing, and contact support with privacy questions. Because the current tools do not require accounts, there is no account profile to delete.
Changes
This policy will be updated when hosting, storage, analytics, account, or payment behavior changes.
