Privacy Policy

Last Updated: July 17, 2026

1. Introduction

Wexira is a free online browser-based PDF toolkit. We are a part of and operated by VertualHands.com, and our website is accessible through the subdomain wexira.vertualhands.com. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you visit our website and use our tools.

By using Wexira, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), or California, additional rights apply to you as described in the sections below.

2. All PDF Tools are 100% Free

We believe that basic document editing and PDF utilities should be accessible to everyone without financial barriers. All the tools offered on Wexira (wexira.vertualhands.com) are completely free to use. There are no paid upgrades, no subscription requirements, and no locked features.

3. 100% Client-Side Local Data Processing

Our unique architecture utilizes cutting-edge WebAssembly (WASM) technologies to process files directly inside your browser. Because of this:

• Your PDF files never leave your computer or mobile device.
• We do not have servers that accept or store your document data.
• Your files are completely secure from data breaches and unauthorized server access.
• No document content is ever transmitted over the internet.

4. Google AdSense & Advertising

To fund the hosting, domain, maintenance, and development of these free tools, we display advertisements via Google AdSense on our pages. To serve these ads:

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to our website or other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• Personalized ads: If you have given consent, Google may use your browsing data to show you personalized advertisements tailored to your interests.
• Non-personalized ads: If you have not given consent or have opted out, you will still see ads, but they will not be based on your browsing history. Non-personalized ads use contextual information rather than user data.
• Third-party ad vendors and ad networks may also use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to collect information for ad measurement, reporting, and personalization.
• Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
• Alternatively, users can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting the www.aboutads.info portal or the Your Online Choices site (for EEA users).

5. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous visitor data. This helps us understand how users navigate our site, which tools are used most frequently, and what technical optimizations are needed. Google Analytics may collect the following types of anonymous data:

• Pages visited and time spent on each page.
• Referral source (how you arrived at our site).
• Approximate geographic location (country/city level, not precise).
• Browser type, device type, and screen resolution.
• Interactions with site features and tools.

Google Analytics uses cookies (such as _ga and _gid) to distinguish unique users and sessions. This data is processed in aggregate and cannot be used to identify you personally. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

6. Cookies We Use

Below is a summary of the types of cookies used on our website:

7. Your Rights Under the GDPR (EEA/UK Users)

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom (UK), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR provide you with specific data protection rights.

Data Controller: VertualHands.com is the data controller responsible for your personal data collected through Wexira (wexira.vertualhands.com). You can contact us at [email protected].

Lawful Basis for Processing: We process personal data under the following legal bases:

• Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR): For placing non-essential cookies (advertising and analytics). You can manage your consent at any time through our cookie consent banner.
• Legitimate Interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR): For operating and securing the website, and serving non-personalized ads to fund our free tools.

Your Rights: Under the GDPR, you have the right to:

• Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate personal data.
• Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): Request deletion of your personal data, subject to legal obligations.
• Restriction of Processing: Request that we limit the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.
• Data Portability: Request transfer of your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
• Objection: Object to processing of your personal data based on legitimate interest.
• Withdraw Consent: You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. You can withdraw consent by clearing your cookies or using our cookie consent banner.

Right to Lodge a Complaint: You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in your country of residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement if you believe our processing of your personal data violates the GDPR. A list of EU Data Protection Authorities can be found on the European Data Protection Board website.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond to your request within 30 days.

8. Your Rights Under the CCPA (California Users)

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) provide you with specific rights regarding your personal information.

• Right to Know: You have the right to request that we disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the categories of sources, the business purpose for collecting it, and the categories of third parties with whom we share it.
• Right to Delete: You have the right to request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions.
• Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing: You have the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information. While we do not sell personal information in the traditional sense, the use of advertising cookies may constitute "sharing" under the CCPA. You can opt out via our cookie consent banner or by adjusting your ad preferences at Google Ads Settings.
• Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. You will not receive a different level or quality of service.

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information: Wexira does not sell your personal information. However, certain uses of advertising cookies by third-party ad partners (such as Google AdSense) may be considered "sharing" of personal information under the CCPA. You can opt out by rejecting non-essential cookies via our cookie consent banner, or by contacting us at [email protected].

To submit a verifiable consumer request, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within 45 days.

9. Data Retention

Since all PDF processing occurs locally in your browser, we do not retain any document data whatsoever. Your files exist only in your browser's memory during processing and are discarded when you close the tab or navigate away.

For analytics data, Google Analytics retains aggregated data per Google's default retention settings (currently 14 months for user-level data). Cookie consent preferences are stored locally on your device for up to 1 year. We do not maintain any separate user databases or file storage systems.

10. International Data Transfers

We use third-party services (Google Analytics, Google AdSense) that may process data internationally, including in the United States. Google LLC participates in and complies with data transfer mechanisms including:

• Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs): As approved by the European Commission for transfers of personal data to countries outside the EEA.
• EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework: Google LLC has certified its compliance with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.

For more information on how Google handles international data transfers, please refer to Google's Data Transfer Frameworks.

11. Children's Privacy

Wexira is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in the EEA). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal data from a child under the applicable age, we will take steps to delete such information as soon as possible. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at [email protected].

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of Wexira after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
