FAQ
Find answers to common questions about We Love PDF's tools, features, security, and billing.
Yes, your files are completely safe. Because our core tools run directly inside your browser, the vast majority of operations process documents locally on your device without ever uploading them. For tools requiring server engines (like OCR and AI), files are encrypted during transit, processed in memory, and permanently deleted within 1 hour. We never sell or share your data.
Tools labeled Browser working perform 100% of their calculations on your machine. This means they are completely private, operate offline, and do not upload any bytes to our servers. Tools labeled Server-ready require more computationally intensive engines (such as OCR libraries, headless web renderers, or AI models). These operate through our secure backend endpoints.
No account is required! You can use all of our browser-side tools for free, with no email, credit card, or registration required. Simply drag your file and download the result. Accounts are only needed if you wish to upgrade to our Pro plan to access server-side features and higher file limits.
Yes, absolutely. You can cancel your subscription at any time directly from your account settings page. Once cancelled, you will retain access to Pro features until the end of your billing cycle, and you won't be charged again.
Our AI PDF Assistant (Ask PDF, Summarize PDF, Quiz generator) extracts text from your uploaded PDF and securely passes it to an AI model to answer questions or generate structured outlines. Your documents are used strictly to generate your response and are never used to train future AI models.
Security
Your trust is our priority. Learn how we protect your sensitive documents at every step.
We Love PDF is built from the ground up with a privacy-first architecture. We follow strict industry standards to ensure that your documents remain secure, private, and confidential.
Whenever you merge, split, delete pages, rotate, watermark, or convert files using our browser-based tools, your files are processed inside your browser's sandboxed memory. No files are transmitted over the web, guaranteeing absolute data sovereignty.
When you use our backend tools (like OCR or AI templates), files are stored temporarily on our servers in an encrypted volume. Files are automatically and permanently deleted 1 hour after processing. There is no manual or automatic archiving of customer files.
All communications between your browser and our servers are encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3/HTTPS). Data on our temporary servers is encrypted at rest using AES-256 standards.
We respect user rights. We do not track document content, index private information, or compile personal profiles. You retain 100% ownership of your files.
Privacy

We use local storage strictly to remember your settings (such as active category filters and selected tools) and session identifiers. You can configure your browser to block cookies, though some subscription management portals may require them to log in.
Files processed via our server-side tools are hard-deleted from our storage units precisely 60 minutes after execution. We maintain no backups of processed documents.

About Us
Meet the team dedicated to making document processing simple, private, and accessible to everyone.
We believe document tools should be fast, elegant, and secure. Most online tools require you to upload private contracts, financial invoices, or personal resumes to unknown servers just to rotate a page or compress a file. We created We Love PDF to solve this by building a browser-first toolbox that keeps your files where they belongβon your own device.
We think privacy should be the default, not a premium upgrade. We run calculations locally whenever possible.
No complex submenus. Drag your file, choose your setting, and hit download. It's that simple.
Our tools are real, and our interfaces are designed to provide fully functional outputs instantly.
We Love PDF is fully responsive and translates across devices, from widescreen monitors to smartphones.

Comparisons
An honest comparison of privacy, speed, offline capabilities, and features.
While iLovePDF is a widely used PDF website, it uploads every file you process to cloud servers. This means your private contracts, resumes, and medical records leave your device, creating a data risk. WeLovePDF is built with a browser-first architecture where core tools process files locally on your machine, ensuring 100% data sovereignty.
| Feature | WeLovePDF | iLovePDF |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Processing | Local Browser Sandbox (100% Private) | Cloud Servers (Files Uploaded) |
| Security Risk | Zero (No files leave your computer) | Medium (Server security dependency) |
| Offline Working | Yes (Works without internet for local tools) | No (Fails without internet) |
| Account Required | No (Free tools available without registration) | Forced login/restrictions for larger tasks |
| AI & OCR Features | Yes (Gemini LLM & Tesseract OCR) | Basic OCR / No built-in LLM chat |
Yes, for local tasks like merging, splitting, and rotating pages, WeLovePDF is much faster because it does not waste time uploading files over the internet or waiting in server queues.
Comparisons
Learn about our privacy-first local browser advantage over Smallpdf's cloud model.
Smallpdf is a well-known commercial PDF manager, but it heavily restricts free users to a few documents per day and forces expensive subscriptions.

No. There are no daily limits for our browser-side tools. You can process, merge, and split as many files as you need.
