Why Your Image Converter Should Be 100% Private (And Ours Is!)

Your Photos, Your Privacy: A Digital Imperative

In today's digital world, we share more photos and documents than ever before. From personal snapshots to sensitive business documents, our images carry a wealth of information. So, when you use an online tool to convert an image or PDF, have you ever stopped to think about where that file really goes?

For most online converters, the answer might surprise – and concern – you.

The Hidden Risk: Server-Side Processing

The vast majority of online image and PDF converters operate by server-side processing. This means:

1. Your File is Uploaded: When you click "Convert," your image or PDF is first uploaded from your computer to the converter's remote server.
2. Conversion Happens Remotely: The server performs the conversion.
3. File is Downloaded: The converted file is then sent back to your computer for download.

The Problem? During that upload and server processing, your file exists on someone else's server. For how long? Who has access? Is it encrypted? These are questions most services don't answer clearly, leaving your private data vulnerable.

Potential Risks of Server-Side Conversion:

• Data Breaches: Servers can be hacked, exposing your uploaded files.
• Privacy Violations: Your images could be accessed, analyzed, or even sold by the service provider.
• Legal & Compliance Issues: For businesses, uploading sensitive documents can violate GDPR, HIPAA, or other data protection regulations.

Imagine converting a scanned passport, a confidential business report, or personal family photos. Do you really want those residing on a third-party server, even temporarily?
