Private by design

Your files never leave your device

Most online PDF sites upload your documents to their servers. DocuVault doesn’t. Everything happens inside your browser, so there is nothing for anyone to see, store or leak.

Check it yourself

Use a tool once, then turn off your Wi-Fi or switch to airplane mode and use it again — it still works. Developers can watch the Network tab: no file is ever sent.

How we keep DocuVault private and free
  1. Step 1

    You choose a file

    Your browser opens it directly from your device — like opening it in an app.

  2. Step 2

    Your device does the work

    The processing code runs inside this browser tab. No server ever receives your file.

  3. Step 3

    You save the result

    The new file goes straight to your downloads. Close the tab and everything is gone.

Frequently asked questions

Is DocuVault really free?

Yes. Every tool is free with no sign-up, no watermarks and no daily limits. DocuVault is supported by ads, and because your device does the processing, we don’t have expensive servers to pay for.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. Files are opened and processed inside your web browser on your own device. They are never sent to our servers or anyone else’s, which is why DocuVault is safe for contracts, IDs, medical and financial documents.

Do I need to install anything?

No. DocuVault works in any modern browser — Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox and Samsung Internet — on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iPhone and iPad.

Does it work without an internet connection?

Yes, after your first visit. The tools are saved by your browser, so you can keep using them in airplane mode. Text recognition in languages other than English needs a one-time download of the language data.

Is there a file size limit?

There’s no fixed limit. Because your device does the work, the practical limit depends on its memory. Most computers and recent phones handle files of a few hundred megabytes.

Can I use DocuVault for work documents?

Yes. Because files aren’t uploaded, there’s no third party to vet and no data to leak. Always follow your organization’s policies for handling sensitive information.
