This Cookie Policy explains how heyPDF (\"we\", \"us\", or \"our\") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website (https://heypdf.vercel.app). We are committed to transparency and want you to know exactly how we collect and use your data.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or mobile device by your web browser when you visit a website. They serve multiple purposes, such as remembering your preferences, analyzing site traffic, and securing pages.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies to enhance website navigation, run stable conversion workspaces, and measure performance. Specifically, we classify our cookies into the following categories:

Essential Cookies

Strictly necessary for the core functionality of the website, such as managing session tokens, user authentication state, and storing files upload states temporarily. The site cannot function properly without them.

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous information about how users interact with our tools. This helps us optimize performance, fix conversion failures, and identify layouts issues to improve user experience.

3. Third-Party Cookies

In addition to our first-party essential cookies, third-party services may place cookies on your device. For example:

Google Analytics: Set by Google Inc. to measure pageviews, search actions, and click actions. These do not contain any personally identifiable information.
Stripe / Payments: Essential functional cookies set by Stripe during payment processing (if you subscribe to a premium plan) to prevent fraud.

4. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can manage your preferences through your browser settings:

Chrome: Go to Settings > Privacy and Security > Third-party cookies.
Safari: Go to Settings > Privacy > Prevent cross-site tracking and Block all cookies.
Firefox: Go to Settings > Privacy > Enhanced Tracking Protection.

Please note that disabling cookies may result in certain features of heyPDF (such as remembering uploaded file orders or logging into the premium dashboard) failing to work correctly.

5. Policy Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technical standards or legal compliance requirements. Please review this page periodically to stay informed about our cookie practices.
