Your documents, completely secure
Our platform protects document uploads with HTTPS encryption in transit and an automated, temporary file cleanup policy.
Platform Protection Standards
Under the hood of heyPDF's document security operations.
HTTPS Encryption in Transit
All files uploaded to heyPDF are encrypted in transit using secure Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3) protocols. Your connection is encrypted from your browser to our API endpoints.
Automatic File Removal
We do not store your documents permanently. Files are processed temporarily and are automatically cleaned up after processing completes.
Isolated Processing Sandboxes
Files are processed inside temporary, isolated memory containers. No persistent server storage is utilized for conversion operations, preventing file cross-contamination or unauthorized access.
Zero Document Analysis
Your data is strictly yours. We do not sell, rent, share, or analyze any user-submitted files. Document parsing operations are 100% automated via programmatic logic with zero human intervention.
Our File Lifecycle
An overview of how files flow through our infrastructure.
Document Security & Privacy Policies
Files are sent to our API endpoints encrypted via TLS. They are buffered in memory and immediately moved to an isolated Cloudflare R2 storage container.
Document Security & Privacy Policies
A serverless container reads the file, completes the requested action (merge, split, convert, lock), saves the output file, and marks the original file for deletion.
Document Security & Privacy Policies
The user receives a direct download link. Files are processed temporarily and are automatically cleaned up after processing completes.
Compliance & Privacy Commitments
heyPDF operates in full compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) guidelines. We believe that privacy is a fundamental human right.
