What happens to your file

Plenty of online tools promise that your document “never leaves your computer”. A promise is a policy, and policies change. This page tells you which parts we have actually measured, which parts we have not, and how to check the claim yourself instead of believing us.

Measured

  • Reading a PDF makes zero network requests

    The extraction step runs in the browser. We ran it with every request logged — including requests back to our own server, and requests made by the background worker that does the decoding — and counted zero. The test also plants a deliberate request and requires the log to catch it, so a silent or broken logger fails the test instead of passing it.

  • The PDF engine is served from this site, not from a third-party CDN

    The library that reads your PDF is hosted here with its version and checksum recorded. No request goes to an outside host while your file is open.

  • There is no account and no file storage

    Nothing to register for, no copy of your document kept, nothing to delete afterwards.

Not yet measured

These are the honest gaps. They are listed here rather than left out, because a privacy claim with quiet exceptions is worth less than no claim at all.

  • PDF export does not run in the browser yet In progress

    Reading and editing are local. The step that builds the finished PDF still runs outside the browser, so we do not claim the complete round trip is local. When it moves across and is measured the same way, this page will say so — and the claim on the front page will change with it, not before.

  • Real-world PLR files have not been tested at scale

    The engine is tested against files where we control exactly what went in, which proves it recovers what we put there. It does not prove it copes with every layout every PLR seller ships.

Check it yourself

You do not have to take any of this on faith. The claim is about observable behaviour, so you can observe it:

  1. Open the editor page.
  2. Open your browser's developer tools and go to the Network tab.
  3. Clear the list, so what follows is only what happens next.
  4. Open your file in the editor.
  5. Watch the list. Reading the document should add nothing to it.

If you ever see your document going somewhere it should not, that is a bug worth reporting loudly — and the measurement above is what makes it visible rather than invisible.

The ordinary website part

Separately from your documents, this is a website, and visiting it works like visiting any other. If analytics, embedded content or contact forms are added later, this page will list what they collect before they go live rather than after.

Your content, your responsibility

EditPLR does not inspect what you open, and does not check whether your PLR licence allows you to edit or republish it. That judgement is yours — the licensing page explains what to look for in your own terms.
