Privacy Policy
Last Updated: August 26, 2026At Zip To PDF (accessible from https://www.ziptopdf.org), one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of information that is collected and recorded by Zip To PDF and how we use and protect it.
🛡️ Our Privacy Guarantee
Zip To PDF operates 100% client-side. When you convert ZIP archives to PDF on our website, your files are processed entirely inside your browser's local sandbox memory using WebAssembly and JavaScript. Your files never leave your device and are NEVER uploaded to any external server.
1. Information We Do NOT Collect (Client-Side File Processing)
Unlike traditional online document conversion services that require uploading files to remote servers, Zip To PDF is engineered with a strict privacy-first architecture:
- No File Uploads: Your ZIP archives, extracted documents, images, text files, and final converted PDF files remain strictly inside your device's browser memory.
- No Server-Side File Storage: We do not operate storage servers, databases, or cloud buckets holding your documents.
- No Account Required: You can use all conversion tools without providing your name, email address, password, phone number, or payment details.
2. Log Files and Standard Web Requests
Like almost all standard web hosting providers, our hosting infrastructure (Vercel Edge Network) automatically logs standard visitor requests. The information collected by log files includes:
- Internet Protocol (IP) addresses
- Browser type and version
- Internet Service Provider (ISP)
- Date and timestamp of visits
- Referring/exit pages and HTTP status codes
This data is not linked to any personally identifiable information. The purpose of this information is for analyzing trends, administering the site, preventing DDoS attacks, and ensuring server uptime.
3. Cookies and Web Beacons
Zip To PDF itself does not use functional cookies for session tracking. However, third-party service providers (such as Google Analytics and Google AdSense) may place cookies on your web browser to deliver essential performance metrics and relevant advertising.

6. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Compliance (EEA Users)
