Privacy & security

Your files are private working data, not public content.

For supported tools, PDFora validates the selected file and performs document processing inside your browser. Document contents are not intentionally uploaded to PDFora servers, and results are downloaded directly to your device. No web service can promise absolute security, so keep originals of important documents.

FAQ

Useful answers before you upload.

PDFora keeps the workflow straightforward, and these details explain the practical limits before you start.

Do I need to install software?

No. PDFora runs in a modern browser. The current PDF engine processes files locally on your device.

Do I need an account?

No account is required for PDFora’s core document tools.

How large can my files be?

The interface accepts files up to 50 MB each. Processing speed and practical capacity depend on your browser, device memory, document complexity, and the selected tool.

Are my documents visible to other users?

No. The platform does not provide a public document list. PDF processing happens locally in your browser, and document contents are not uploaded to PDFora servers.

Common questions

Know what the tool does before you process a file

Are files uploaded? Supported document operations are designed to run in the browser on the device. Normal website hosting still handles technical web requests needed to deliver the site.

Are conversions always perfect? No. PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images, and scans represent content differently. Important output should always be reviewed.

Can Unlock PDF open a file without the password? No. It is intended for authorized files when the current password is known.

Is a visual signature a certificate-based digital signature? No. Different recipients can require different signing methods.
