Cookie Policy

Last updated: 27 Jul 2026

PDFDocFuse uses a small number of cookies to make the site work. We don't use advertising cookies, and we don't sell any data collected through cookies.

Cookies we always use

Cookie	Purpose	Expires
Session cookie (PHP session ID)	Keeps you logged in as you move between pages.	When you close your browser, or on logout
pdf_guest	An anonymous ID so we can enforce the free plan's daily file limit for visitors without an account. Not linked to your identity.	1 year
pdf_remember	Only set if you check "Remember me" at login — keeps you signed in across browser restarts.	30 days, or until you log out

Cookies used only if the site owner has enabled them

These come from optional third-party features that aren't active by default:

Cookie	Purpose
Google Analytics (_ga, _gid, etc.)	Aggregate traffic stats, if the site owner has added a Google Analytics ID in Settings.
Google reCAPTCHA	Bot detection on signup/login, if the site owner has enabled reCAPTCHA in Settings.
Razorpay / Stripe checkout cookies	Set temporarily by the payment provider while you're completing a subscription purchase.

Managing cookies

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, but the session and pdf_guest cookies are required for the site's core tools to work — blocking them will break uploads and login.
