Privacy Policy
Last Updated: February 2026
At Detectmo, your privacy is our highest priority. We explicitly designed our Universal File Shrinker to operate entirely within your web browser, ensuring that your sensitive documents never leave your device.
1. We Do Not Store Your Files
When you compress a PDF, Word Document, Excel file, or Image using Detectmo, the entire compression process happens locally on your computer via HTML5 and JavaScript technologies. Your files are never uploaded to our servers, nor are they processed in the cloud. Once you close the browser tab, the compressed file exists only on your device.
2. Data Collection
Because the app runs locally, we do not collect, read, or analyze the contents of your files.
We may collect standard, non-personally identifiable web analytics data (such as browser type, time spent on the page, and geographic region) to help us improve the website's performance and fix bugs.
3. Third-Party Advertising (Google AdSense)
To keep Detectmo 100% free, we use third-party advertising companies, such as Google AdSense, to serve ads when you visit our website. These companies may use aggregated information (not including your name, address, email address, or telephone number) about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.
- Third party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to your website or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and/or other sites on the Internet.
- Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Ads Settings.
4. Changes to This Policy
We reserve the right to modify this privacy policy at any time. Changes will be posted immediately to this page.
