We ve all been there: you need to convert a HEIC photo from your iPhone to JPG, or turn a DOCX invoice into a PDF. You search Google, click the first free online converter, upload your file, and download the converted version a few seconds later.
But have you ever thought about where your file goes?
Most online converters process your files on their servers. This means your private documents, personal photos, and sensitive data are transmitted over the internet and stored on third-party servers. Even if they claim to delete files after 1 hour, you have no way to verify it.
