Privacy Policy
1. Commitment to User Privacy
At DocReducer (accessible at https://docreducer.tech/), visitor privacy, security, and digital confidentiality are our highest priorities. This Privacy Policy document details the types of information recorded by DocReducer and explains our transparent practices regarding data processing, cookies, and third-party advertising partners.
2. Client-Side Processing Guarantee (Zero Server Uploads)
Unlike conventional file conversion services that upload your personal files to third-party cloud servers, DocReducer operates 100% locally within your device's web browser using modern HTML5 Canvas, JavaScript, and WebAssembly technologies. When you select, compress, or convert a file:
- Your photographs, identity documents, applicant signatures, and academic certificates NEVER leave your device.
- No photo data or biometric information is transmitted to, stored on, or inspected by our servers or any third-party infrastructure.
- All temporary memory allocations are wiped clean as soon as you download the file, clear the editor, or close the browser tab.
3. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising
Google is a third-party advertising vendor on DocReducer. Google uses cookies, known as DART cookies, to serve relevant advertisements to visitors based on their visits to our website and other sites across the Internet.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its network partners to serve ads based on prior browsing history and contextual relevance.
- Visitors may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting the official Google Ad Settings page.
- Alternatively, you may opt out of third-party vendors' cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out portal.
4. Web Analytics & Server Logs
Like standard web infrastructure, DocReducer may record non-personally identifiable log entries (such as IP addresses, browser types, operating systems, referring URLs, and timestamps). These logs are utilized solely for diagnosing server performance, preventing malicious automated abuse, and maintaining overall platform reliability. No personally identifiable data or uploaded files are ever tied to these logs.
5. Cookie Consent & Google Consent Mode v2
We implement a transparent cookie management system compliant with Google Consent Mode v2. You have the right to accept or decline non-essential advertising and analytics cookies. Essential functionality (such as browser-based compression and format conversion) operates smoothly regardless of your cookie preferences.
6. GDPR Data Protection Rights
Under the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), users are entitled to rights of access, rectification, erasure, and restriction of processing. Because DocReducer does not collect, transmit, or store personal files or accounts, your data remains under your absolute personal custody at all times.
7. California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA / CPRA)
Under the CCPA and CPRA, California residents have the right to know what personal information is collected, request its deletion, and opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. DocReducer does not sell, trade, or monetize personal data or uploaded media in any manner.
8. Children's Online Privacy Protection (COPPA)
DocReducer does not knowingly collect or solicit any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. Because our service processes images locally without account creation, children's personal information is never stored or processed remotely.
