All tools on PDF Tool World — including the PDF Merge and ID Card Custom Layout tools — process your files entirely inside your own browser. Your files are never uploaded, transmitted, or stored on our servers or any third-party server. Once you close or refresh the page, nothing you uploaded remains anywhere.
This tool asks for information only to decrypt your own official ID Card PDF locally in your browser. This information and your ID Card file are never sent anywhere — the decryption and cropping happen entirely on your device using JavaScript libraries loaded from public content delivery networks. We do not see, log, or retain your ID Card data in any form.
This site may display advertisements served by third-party providers such as Google AdSense. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies to show ads based on your visits to this and other websites. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and Google provides opt-out options at adssettings.google.com.
We may use basic, privacy-respecting analytics to understand overall site traffic (e.g. number of visits, general location by country). This data is aggregated and not tied to your uploaded files, which — again — never leave your device.
The tools on this site load open-source JavaScript libraries (such as pdf-lib and pdf.js) from public CDNs to function. Loading these scripts may expose your IP address to the CDN provider, as is standard for any website using external scripts.
