Many students use our tool. For example, a 17 year old applying for NEET or JEE often needs to shrink a photo and signature for the NTA form. So we take children’s privacy seriously, and this page explains exactly how we protect it.
The most important fact for parents
Your child’s files never leave their device. Our compressor runs inside the web browser. Photos, signatures, marksheets, and ID cards stay on the phone or computer the whole time. We never receive them, see them, or store them.
In other words, the most sensitive part of using an online compressor, uploading personal documents to a stranger’s server, simply does not happen here.
Who our site is for
Our website is a general audience tool for anyone who needs to resize a file. We do not design it for children, and we do not target content at them.
- Under 13: Children under 13 should not use the site on their own. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under 13.
- Ages 13 to 17: Teens may use the tool, ideally with a parent or guardian’s knowledge, especially when they handle official documents.
The laws we follow
Different countries protect children in different ways. Here is how each main law applies to us:
| Law | Who counts as a child | What it requires |
|---|---|---|
| Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), United States | Under 13 | Verifiable parental consent before collecting personal information from children |
| General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Article 8, EU | Under 16, or as low as 13 depending on the country | Parental consent for consent based processing such as personalized ads |
| Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, India | Under 18 | Verifiable parental consent, and no tracking, behavioral monitoring, or targeted ads aimed at children |
Since our tool never collects the files themselves, the only personal data in question comes from analytics and advertising cookies. That is why the next section matters.
Analytics and ads
Like most free websites, we use Google Analytics 4 and Google AdSense. These services can set cookies on any visitor’s browser, including a teen’s. We never use these tools to knowingly profile children. In addition:
- We do not create content designed to attract children under 13.
- We do not knowingly allow personalized advertising aimed at children.
- Visitors in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland can reject analytics and ad cookies through our consent banner, and the tool still works.
Parents can also turn off personalized ads for any Google account through My Ad Center. If your child has a Google account set up through Family Link, Google already limits ads for that account.
If a child emails us
The only way a child could send us personal information is by email. If we learn that a child under 13 contacted us, or a child under 18 in India without parental consent, we delete that email and any personal details in it. We reply only to tell them to ask a parent to contact us instead.
Safety tips for parents and students
We also want to share a few habits that keep students safe on any compressor website, not just ours:
- Prefer tools that process files on your device. Before you use any compressor, try the offline test: load the page, turn off the internet, and compress a file. If it still works, your file never left the device.
- Never email or WhatsApp ID documents to strangers who offer to “resize” them for you.
- Apply only on the official exam website. Fake portals copy the design of real ones to steal personal data, so open the link from the official notification.
- Check the photo before uploading. Make sure nothing else personal, such as an address or another document, appears in the background.
- Keep the original file safe on the device or in your own cloud storage.
Your rights as a parent
If you believe your child sent us personal information, you can ask us to:
- Tell you what information we hold
- Delete that information
- Stop any further contact
Simply email compresspdfto200kb@gmail.com with “Child Privacy” in the subject line. We act on these requests within 30 days, and usually much sooner.
