Privacy Policy

How FilePat handles information

FilePat handles information only to the extent necessary to provide the service. This policy is updated to reflect the services actually used on the site, the information they collect, and their purposes.

Handling of file data

The currently supported features do not use a system that uploads and stores conversion files on a FilePat conversion server. Files processed in the browser are not continuously stored by FilePat as online storage.

Cookies, analytics, and advertising

When cookies, local storage, analytics, or advertising services are used, this policy describes the actual services, information collected, purposes, and available settings. Services that are not used are not described as if they were in use.

External services

Some features may load JavaScript libraries from external CDNs, such as for PDF or ZIP processing. If advertising or analytics services are introduced, necessary communications with those providers may occur.

A practical guide to using FilePat

FilePat brings together small file tasks that are useful in everyday work but often feel too minor to justify installing a separate desktop application. Images, PDFs, ZIP files, and simple data formats can be handled from the browser through the appropriate tool page.

Where this tool fits

What to check first

Keep the source file when you may need another version later. Give processed files clear names and open the result before sending it, especially when the work involves page order, file contents, or an exact output size.

A simple way to work

On a phone, check the result in the same context where you plan to use it. Long file names, multi-page PDFs, and small text can look different on a narrow screen, so a quick review before sharing is worth the extra moment.

What to check after processing

A simple way to choose a tool is to start with the final outcome. Need a smaller file? Use compression. Need a specific size? Resize it. Need a different format? Convert it. Starting from the job rather than the software name usually makes the workflow easier to understand. On a phone, check the result in the same context where you plan to use it. Long file names, multi-page PDFs, and small text can look different on a narrow screen, so a quick review before sharing is worth the extra moment.

Next steps

A file often needs more than one small change. When needed, continue with the next relevant step—such as resizing or compressing an image, or reordering a PDF after combining it. Keeping the workflow simple and checking each finished file makes recurring work easier to manage.

When you are unsure

When the right setting is unclear, start with what the recipient actually needs. For a submission, that may be a required size or page order; for sharing, it may simply be a file that opens correctly and is easy to read. Checking the few requirements that matter is usually better than adding unnecessary processing.
