Privacy Policy
Short version: markdowntodoc does not collect, store, or transmit your Markdown content. Conversion runs entirely in your browser. The only network requests we make are the page assets and the image fetches you explicitly trigger.
Effective:
1. Data we collect
None. The Markdown you paste into the editor is processed by JavaScript running in your browser. The text never reaches our servers — we have no backend that receives it.
The Word document you download is generated in your browser using the open-source docx library. The binary file is handed to your browser's download manager; we never see it.
2. Cookies and local storage
markdowntodoc does not set any cookies, does not use localStorage,sessionStorage, IndexedDB, or any other browser persistence mechanism. Closing the tab discards everything.
3. Analytics and tracking
markdowntodoc does not load Google Analytics, Plausible, Fathom, Meta Pixel, Hotjar, or any other third-party analytics or tracking script. There are no tracking pixels embedded in the page.
4. Third-party services we load
The page itself makes the following outbound requests:
- Self-hosted fonts via
next/font(DM Sans, JetBrains Mono, Merriweather). These are served from our own domain (or your CDN edge) at build time — no request goes to Google Fonts at runtime. - Image proxy at
/api/image-proxy— only invoked when your Markdown contains remoteimgURLs and only for the exact URLs you wrote. The proxy streams bytes from the origin to your browser without logging request bodies, headers, or responses. It does not retain a cache beyond the lifetime of the request.
5. Server logs
Standard web server access logs (IP address, user agent, requested URL, response status) may be retained by our hosting provider for up to 30 days for operational and abuse-prevention purposes. These logs are not associated with your content and are not used for advertising or profiling. The image proxy adds no application-level logging.
6. Children's privacy
markdowntodoc is a general-purpose productivity tool. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13, because we do not collect personal information from any user.
7. Your rights
Because we do not collect personal data, there is nothing to access, correct, export, or delete. If you have questions about this policy or want to report a privacy concern, see our contact page.
8. Changes to this policy
If we ever change this policy in a way that affects user data, the "Effective" date at the top of this page will be updated and a notice will be added to the changelog. Since the current policy is "we collect nothing", any meaningful change will be a regression that warrants public disclosure.
9. Contact
