PrivacyPDF

Free, private, and secure PDF compression — 100% in your browser. No uploads. No storage. No tracking.

🌐 Live demo:https://privacypdf.org

PrivacyPDF is a PDF compression tool that runs entirely on the client side. Your files are processed in the browser and never leave your device — no uploads to any server, no storage, no tracking.

✨ Features

• 100% local processing — all compression happens in your browser.
• Batch compression — drop multiple PDFs and compress them together.
• Adjustable quality — Light / Balanced / Extreme compression levels.
• ZIP export — download all results as a single ZIP.
• Privacy by design — no server ever sees your documents.
• Open source — the full frontend codebase is on GitHub.

🔒 Why open source?

PDF tools usually require uploading sensitive files to a third-party server. PrivacyPDF takes the opposite approach: because the code is open, anyone can verify that files are processed locally and never transmitted. That is the strongest possible privacy guarantee.

🚀 How to Use

Use it online at https://privacypdf.org, or self-host it:

# 1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/bite-arcade/privacy-pdf.git
# 2. Enter the directorycd privacy-pdf
# 3. Serve the static files (any static server works)
python3 -m http.server 8080
# Then open http://localhost:8080

⚠️FOR LOCAL TESTING ONLY, DO NOT EXPOSE TO PUBLIC INTERNET. This is a static site; a local server is enough to preview it on your machine.
