Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 8, 2026

CocoPDF ("CocoPDF", "we", "us") provides free online PDF tools. This Privacy Policy explains what happens to the files you upload and what limited information we collect when you use the site. By using CocoPDF you agree to the practices described here.

The short version

The full policy is below, in the wording a compliance team will ask for. In plain language, this is what it says.

  • Your file goes to our server, gets processed, and comes back to you. Nobody looks at it, and nothing inside it is read, indexed, or sold.
  • Both your upload and the file we generate are deleted within an hour, whether or not you download the result. There is no archive and no backup copy.
  • We never ask for a name, an email address, or a card number, because there are no accounts to create.
  • Our servers log ordinary technical details such as IP address and browser type, which is how abuse gets blocked and outages get diagnosed.
  • Ads pay for the site, so advertising partners set cookies in your browser. Those are theirs rather than ours, and your browser settings can block them.
  • Your documents are not training data for anything, and they are not passed to anyone else.

This summary is here for convenience. Where it and the full text below differ, the full text is the one that governs.

Files you upload

When you use a tool, your file is sent to our server, processed to perform the operation you requested, and returned to you. Processing runs in isolated containers. We do not read, analyze, sell, or share the contents of your documents, and we do not use them for any purpose other than completing the operation you asked for.

File retention and deletion

Both the file you upload and the file we generate are automatically deleted from our servers within one hour. We do not archive, back up, or retain copies of your documents beyond this short processing window.

Information we collect

CocoPDF does not require registration, and we do not ask for a name, email address, or payment details to use the tools. Like most websites, our servers and infrastructure providers may automatically record standard technical information, such as IP address, browser type, referring page, and the time of a request, for security, abuse prevention, and to keep the service running.

Cookies and advertising

CocoPDF is free because it shows ads, and those ads come from Google AdSense. Google and other ad vendors use cookies to show you ads based on your earlier visits to this site and to other sites. Google's advertising cookies are what let Google and its partners choose those ads.

You can turn off personalized ads from Google in your Google ad settings. Many other ad vendors honor the opt-out at aboutads.info/choices, and visitors in Europe can use youronlinechoices.eu. Google explains what it does with this data in How Google uses information from sites that use its services.

If you visit from the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland, you are asked whether you agree to these cookies before personalized ads load. You can change your answer later with the "Privacy and cookie settings" button at the bottom of the page. Analytics tools also set cookies so we can count visits and see which tools get used. You can block or delete any of these cookies in your browser.

Third-party services

We rely on third-party providers for hosting, content delivery, and advertising. These providers may process limited technical data on our behalf as part of delivering the site. We do not share your uploaded documents with them.

Data security

Traffic to CocoPDF is served over HTTPS. Files are processed in isolated environments and removed promptly after processing. No method of transmission or storage is ever completely secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect data while it is in our care.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding personal data, such as the right to access or request deletion of information held about you. Because uploaded files are deleted automatically within one hour and we do not maintain user accounts, we hold very little personal data. If you have a question about your data, contact us using the details below.

Children

CocoPDF is a general-purpose document utility and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children, because we do not operate accounts or collect personal details in order to provide the tools.

Where processing happens

Files uploaded for processing are handled on our servers rather than in your browser, which is what allows conversions to run at native speed. The exception is the document scanner, where edge detection and perspective correction run locally on your own device and images are only transmitted at the point you choose to create a PDF. In every case, files are deleted automatically within one hour and are never used for any purpose beyond producing the output you requested.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Material changes to how files are handled will be reflected here before they take effect, and continued use of the service after an update means you accept the revised policy.
