Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 26, 2026

Our Commitment to Your Privacy

At DocDash ("we," "our," or "us"), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our website and document processing tools (the "Service").

1. On-Device & Secure File Processing

Most of DocDash’s tools (such as PDF merging, splitting, and image studio features) operate entirely on your local device via your browser. Your files are processed locally using client-side libraries, meaning we never upload, see, or store your documents on our servers for these features.

For advanced server-side tools (such as heavy PDF compression or conversion), files are transmitted securely via encrypted channels, processed temporarily in volatile memory, and immediately deleted post-processing.

2. Information We Collect

We collect minimal data necessary to provide and secure our services:

  • Account Data: If you create an account, we use Clerk to manage authentication. This includes your email address, user ID, and basic profile information.
  • Usage & Rate Limiting Metadata: We track basic request counts via Upstash Redis to enforce tier limits and protect our API infrastructure from abuse.
  • Payment & Billing Data: Subscriptions and payments are securely handled by our Merchant of Record, Paddle. We do not store or process your credit card numbers on our servers.

3. Third-Party Service Providers

We integrate trusted third-party services to operate DocDash efficiently:

4. Data Security

We employ industry-standard security measures, including HTTPS encryption for all data in transit, secure token handling, and strict environment access controls to safeguard your information against unauthorized access or disclosure.
