Your PDFs stay on your device.
Many online PDF services upload documents to a server for processing. LocalPDF takes a different approach: the actual document processing happens in your browser. This is especially useful for invoices, contracts and other sensitive documents.
Note: JavaScript libraries used for PDF processing are loaded from external CDNs. Your IP address may therefore be transmitted to the CDN provider, but your PDF files themselves are not transmitted.
