A2Z Edit

Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 27, 2026

A2Z Edit is an independently operated web product. The operator and developer is WALEED SHEERAZ. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use www.a2zedit.com and related pages. Most tools are designed to run in your browser without uploading your files.

1. Summary

  • Image, PDF, OCR, and QR tools: processing is intended to happen in your browser. Your files are not stored on our servers for those tools when they run fully client-side.
  • Temporary file share & link redirects: when you choose these features, files or redirect metadata are stored so the link can work, then deleted when you forget them or they expire.
  • No login or signup — A2Z Edit has no account system; use tools directly.

2. Files you process in tools

Browser-based tools

Features such as background removal, resize/convert/compress/watermark, PDF merge/split/edit (where implemented client-side), OCR, and QR generation are designed to process data locally in your device’s browser memory. Closing the tab typically discards that working data.

Temporary file shares

If you upload a file to create a temporary share link, the file and metadata (name, size, expiry, optional custom path) are stored so others can download via your link. Uploads go through our share API (currently up to about 4.5 MB) and are stored in Backblaze B2 when configured. Objects are removed when the link expires, when you use “Forget” in My Links, or when an admin deletes them.

Link redirects

Redirect links store the destination URL, wait settings, and related metadata until expiry or deletion — not your personal documents.

Civil ID PDF Maker

Civil ID PDF Maker lays out front and back photos into a PDF in your browser. It does not submit documents to a government portal. Treat ID images as sensitive: do not use Temporary File Share for them unless you accept an upload.

Ask PDF (optional AI)

If AI keys are configured, questions and extracted PDF text may be sent to a third-party model provider to generate answers. Do not submit confidential documents to Ask PDF unless you accept that processing.

3. Cookies, local storage & similar tech

We use limited browser storage and scripts for the site to function:

  • Essential / functional: preferences and “My Links” identifiers stored in your browser (for example localStorage) so links you created on this device can be listed.
  • Service worker: may cache static assets (logo, offline page, manifest) for reliability. It uses a network-first approach for navigations and does not silently upload your documents.
  • Analytics / visit telemetry: we use Google Analytics (gtag.js, measurement ID in site config) and may also record high-level visit data (page URL, screen size, language, timezone, referrer, user agent) to understand traffic. This is not used to sell personal profiles. Google may process data under its own terms when the tag loads.
  • Advertising (Google AdSense): we may display ads from Google AdSense on content-rich pages (home, guides, hubs, and company pages). We do not place ad code on thin converter-only screens. Google (and its partners) may use cookies or similar identifiers to serve and measure ads — including personalized ads based on your visits to this and other sites. Google’s use of advertising cookies is described in Google’s Advertising policies. You can opt out of personalized Google ads at Google Ads Settings and via the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out. Our publisher id is listed in ads.txt.
  • Hosting / CDN: our host (for example Vercel) and storage providers may set technical cookies or logs required to deliver the site securely.

You can clear site data in your browser settings at any time. Analytics and (if enabled) advertising cookies are described above.

4. Information we may collect

  • Technical logs (IP address, timestamps, request paths) from hosting.
  • Optional messages you send via Contact or the support inbox listed there.
  • Share/redirect metadata you create intentionally.

5. How we use information

  • Operate and secure the website and link features.
  • Improve performance, reliability, and documentation.
  • Respond to support requests you initiate.
  • If AdSense is enabled, work with Google to serve ads (see cookies, above).
  • Comply with law when required.

6. Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may use processors such as cloud hosting and object storage (for example Backblaze B2 for shares) solely to provide the service. Providers process data under their terms and our configuration.

7. Retention

  • Browser tool sessions: not retained on our servers by design.
  • Shares & redirects: until expiry, forget/delete, or admin removal.
  • Support emails: retained as long as needed to resolve your request.
  • Server logs: kept for a limited operational period.

8. Security

We use HTTPS and industry-typical hosting controls. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. Prefer browser-local tools for highly sensitive files, and avoid sharing secrets via temporary links.

9. Android app

The optional A2Z Edit Android app (package com.a2zedit.app) displays this website in a WebView. It is not a separate copy of the tools — website updates appear in the app on the next load. On first launch the app asks you to accept this Privacy Policy and the Terms of Service. That acceptance is stored only on your device.

10. Children

The service is not directed at children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your region). Do not use the site to upload children’s personal data.

11. Your choices

  • Use tools freely — there is no login or signup.
  • Clear cookies and site storage in your browser.
  • Delete shares from My Links when available.
  • Reach the operator through the contact page for privacy questions.
  • Opt out of personalized Google ads as described in section 3.

12. International users

The site may be hosted in regions different from yours. By using A2Z Edit, you understand that information related to shares, logs, or support may be processed where our providers operate.

13. Changes

We may update this policy. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use after changes means you accept the revised policy.
