The Core Principle
We sell software, not data. Our tools process everything on your device, and we have no interest in seeing, storing, or monetizing what you work on.
No File Uploads
Every web-based tool in our suite (NexPDF, NexStrip, NexCompress) uses modern browser APIs to process your files locally in your browser tab. Your files never transit our servers. We cannot see them, and we certainly do not store them.
No Accounts or Tracking
We do not require accounts to use our free utilities. We do not use invasive tracking pixels or third-party cookies for advertising. We may collect minimal, anonymized server logs (like page views) purely for performance monitoring and to prevent abuse of our infrastructure.
Local Storage
Some tools may use your browser's local storage or IndexedDB to save your preferences or temporary work files (like a PDF being edited). This data stays on your device and is never synced to any cloud service by us.
NexData Desktop App
Our desktop application, NexData Recovery, is designed to run entirely offline. It does not require an internet connection to scan or recover files. License verification happens via a secure, local-first mechanism.
