✦ Our Story

Built by One Person.
Used by Everyone.

ClearPDFs started as a simple idea — that everyday document tasks shouldn't require expensive software, forced sign-ups, or privacy trade-offs. So we built the alternative.

Founder’s Note
“I built the tools I wished existed — free, fast, and honest.”
ClearPDFs was founded and built independently by Heang Kimhak, a web developer from Cambodia. What began as a small project to simplify PDF workflows has grown into a practical platform focused on browser-based utilities. Development continues with a focus on performance, simplicity, and real-world usability.

Privacy & Data

We Handle Your Files With Care

We prioritise transparency and responsible data handling. Here’s exactly how we treat your files.

Browser-Based Processing

Many tools process your files directly inside your browser using JavaScript. Your files never leave your device for these tools.

No Permanent Storage

When temporary uploads are required, files are not permanently stored on our servers and are deleted after processing.

We Never Sell Your Data

We do not sell, share, or monetise user files or personal data. Your documents are yours — full stop.

Clear Privacy Per Tool

Privacy practices are explained clearly on each individual tool page so you always know exactly what happens to your data.

All pages on ClearPDFs are served over HTTPS with SSL encryption to protect your connection at all times.
