Your Documents, Your Privacy. Guaranteed.
We believe privacy is a fundamental right. Unlike cloud-based OCR services, your sensitive documents never leave your device.
100% Local Processing
The entire OCR process, from image analysis to text extraction, runs directly in your web browser. **Your files are never uploaded to our servers.**
No Data Retention
Since nothing is ever uploaded, there is no data to store. We have no access to your documents, extracted text, or resulting files.
Offline Ready
After the initial load, the core OCR engine works completely offline. Process documents even without an active internet connection.
Detailed Privacy Policy
1. Information We DO NOT Collect
- **Document Content:** The images or PDFs you upload for OCR.
- **Extracted Text:** The final text output generated by the OCR process.
- **Output Files:** The Word, Excel, or PDF files generated.
- **Personal Identifiable Information (PII)** submitted within your documents.
2. Information We DO Collect (Non-Personal)
We only collect anonymized, non-personal data necessary for maintaining and improving the service:
- **Usage Analytics (Anonymized):** We use a privacy-focused tool (like Plausible or self-hosted analytics) to track page visits, button clicks, and general browser type. This data cannot be traced back to an individual user.
- **Performance Metrics:** Anonymized data on the speed and success rate of the OCR engine (e.g., "OCR completed successfully in 3.4 seconds"). This helps us improve the core engine.
- **Error Reporting:** Non-identifying technical logs if an error occurs, containing only the error code and stack trace.
3. Security Measures
- **TLS/SSL Encryption:** Our website is served over HTTPS to ensure a secure connection between your browser and our server for the initial file download.
- **Secure Engine:** The OCR engine is sandboxed within the browser environment, limiting its access to your device's filesystem.
- **Zero-Trust Architecture:** Since the most sensitive operation (OCR) occurs on your side, server-side breach risks related to document content are eliminated.
4. Third-Party Services
We intentionally limit third-party scripts to maximize privacy and speed:
- **Payment Processor:** Payments (if any) are handled by [E.g., Stripe/PayPal]. We never see or store your full credit card information.
- **[Name of Anonymized Analytics Tool]:** Used for anonymous usage tracking (as detailed above).
