Privacy Policy

Your privacy is our priority. Learn how we protect your data with our client-side processing approach.

Last updated: September 15, 2025

1. Information We Collect

Word2MD.net is designed with privacy-first principles. We collect minimal information:

  • No Personal Data: We do not require registration, accounts, or personal information
  • No File Data: Your documents are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded to our servers
  • Basic Analytics: We may collect anonymous usage statistics (page views, general location) to improve our service
  • Technical Data: Standard web server logs (IP addresses, browser type) for security and performance monitoring

All document conversion happens locally using client-side JavaScript, ensuring your files remain private and secure.

2. How We Use Your Information

Since Word2MD.net processes documents locally in your browser, we use minimal data only for:

  • Service Delivery: Providing the web application and conversion tools
  • Performance Monitoring: Ensuring optimal loading times and functionality
  • Security: Protecting against malicious activities and maintaining service integrity
  • Improvements: Understanding usage patterns to enhance features and user experience

We never access, store, or process your document content. All conversions happen entirely within your browser using libraries like mammoth.js and turndown.js.

3. Data Security and Local Processing

Word2MD.net provides maximum security through client-side processing:

  • Local Processing: All document conversions happen in your browser, never on our servers
  • No Data Storage: We do not store any document content or personal files
  • HTTPS Encryption: All website communications are encrypted using SSL/TLS
  • Browser Security: Your documents remain within your browser's secure environment
  • No Account Required: No passwords or personal data to potentially compromise
  • Batch Processing: Handle up to 100 files simultaneously, all processed locally

This architecture ensures that your sensitive documents never leave your device, providing the highest level of data security.

4. Your Rights and Control

With Word2MD.net's privacy-first design, you maintain complete control:

  • Full Data Control: Since no personal data is collected, there's no data to access, update, or delete
  • Document Privacy: Your files remain entirely under your control and never leave your device
  • No Tracking: We don't track individual users or create personal profiles
  • Browser Control: You can clear browser data anytime to remove any local storage
  • Opt-out: Simply stop using the service - no account deletion or data removal requests needed

This architecture ensures you have maximum privacy rights by design, not just by policy.

5. Data Retention and Storage

Word2MD.net's client-side architecture ensures minimal data retention:

  • No Server Storage: We do not store any uploaded documents on our servers
  • Local Processing Only: Files are processed entirely within your browser's memory
  • Immediate Cleanup: Document data is cleared from browser memory after conversion
  • No Persistent Data: No conversion history or file metadata is retained
  • Temporary AI Data: When using AI features, image data is processed temporarily and not stored

This ensures that your documents exist only on your device and are never permanently stored elsewhere.

6. Information Sharing and Third-Party Services

We maintain strict data protection standards:

  • No Document Sharing: Your files are never shared, uploaded, or transmitted to any third parties
  • AI Image Processing: When using AI image description features, only image data is temporarily sent to secure AI services
  • No Personal Data Sales: We do not sell, trade, or transfer any personal information
  • Service Providers: We may use trusted third-party services for website hosting and analytics (with anonymized data only)

All processing libraries (mammoth.js, turndown.js, etc.) run locally in your browser without external data transmission.
