User’s Files Handling and Keeping
We do not read, look into or copy your files. You can delete your uploaded files yourself at any time.
We convert more than 10 million files (300 TB of data) every month. We delete input files and all temporary files instantly after any file conversion. We delete output files instantly when the user clicks 'X' in the web panel, otherwise, output files are deleted after 24 hours automatically. This implies that you can delete your files on your own anytime.
We can’t make a backup copy of your files even if you ask us to do so. To save a backup copy or all the contents of the file we need your user agreement. Your files are exclusively bound to your IP address. Only the user, who initiated the conversion, can download the result file.
