Privacy policy
Last updated: July 2026
Introduction
Shrinklyy ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our website and PDF compression tools.
Browser-Based Processing
Shrinklyy processes all PDF files locally in your browser using client-side JavaScript. When you compress a PDF on Shrinklyy, your file is never uploaded, transmitted, or stored on any server operated by us. The file stays entirely on your device throughout the compression process. Once you close the browser tab or navigate away, the file data is removed from memory.
No File Storage
We do not store, copy, or retain any PDF files you process through our tools. We have no ability to access, view, or recover your documents. This is a fundamental design principle of Shrinklyy your files are yours and stay with you.
Information We Collect
Since all PDF processing happens client-side, we do not collect or receive the contents of your files. However, we may collect limited anonymous usage data to improve our service, such as:
- Pages visited and features used
- Browser type and version
- Device type (desktop, tablet, mobile)
- Anonymous aggregate statistics (e.g., number of files compressed)
- Referring website or search engine
Cookies and Tracking
Shrinklyy does not use cookies for tracking purposes. We may use essential cookies required for the basic functioning of the website, such as session management. Any third-party services we use (such as analytics or advertising networks) may place their own cookies, governed by their respective privacy policies. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings.
Google AdSense
Shrinklyy may display advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and other sites on the internet. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services for analytics and advertising, including Google Analytics and Google AdSense. These services have their own privacy policies governing the use of your information. We encourage you to review their policies:
No Account Required
Shrinklyy does not require you to create an account, sign up, or provide any personal information to use our compression tools. We do not knowingly collect personal information as part of the compression process.
Data Security
Because your files are processed locally in your browser, there is no data transmission risk during compression. Our website is served over HTTPS to ensure secure communication between your browser and our servers for page content. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect our website and infrastructure.
Children's Privacy
Shrinklyy is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.
Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct, or delete information we hold about you. Since we do not store your files or collect personal information beyond anonymous usage data, there is typically no personal data for us to delete. If you have questions, please contact us.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
