Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2 November 2026. This policy covers the FormReady website and all of its tools.

FormReady is a free set of tools that helps you prepare photos, signatures and documents for exam applications. This page explains, in plain language, exactly what happens to your information when you use the site. The short version: your files never leave your device.

1. Your files are never uploaded

Every FormReady tool — the exam photo and signature resizer, the image compressor, the signature background cleaner, photo-to-PDF, PDF merge, PDF compress, the passport print sheet, OCR PDF-to-text, the PDF editor, the document pack, the document validator, the document match checker, the certificate validity checker, PDF split, PDF-to-image, the age calculator, the QR generator, video-to-audio and download from link — runs entirely inside your web browser, on your own phone or computer.

When you select a photo, signature or PDF, your browser processes it on your device and lets you download the result. The file is not sent to us, not sent to any server we control, and not stored by us anywhere. We have no copy of your files and we cannot see, recover or delete them for you — once you close the page, the working copy in your browser is gone — with one exception: the PDF Editor keeps a draft on your device so you can pick up where you left off; see section 2.

2. What is stored on your device

FormReady stores the following small things in your browser, on your device only:

• Your language choice (English or Hindi), so the site opens in the language you picked.
• Simple counts of how many times you have used each tool on this device, so we can show your own usage to you. These counts contain no file names, no images and no personal details.
• Document Pack progress: which exam you chose and, for each document, whether it is ready and its final file size. This is stored on your device as formready.pack.v1. It contains no file names and no file contents, and it is never sent anywhere.
• OCR language data: the first time you use the OCR tool, your browser downloads its text-recognition language files once and keeps them on your device (in IndexedDB, your browser's on-device database) so that repeat visits are faster. These files are public model files, the same for everyone — they are not your data, and no document is ever stored with them.
• Validator handoff: if you choose to tap “Fix in Exam Resizer” in the Document Validator, the file you chose is held temporarily in your browser's on-device database (IndexedDB) and is deleted as soon as the Exam Resizer opens it. It is never sent anywhere.
• PDF Editor draft: if you use the PDF Editor, it keeps a draft on this device so you can pick up where you left off if the tab closes. The draft contains the PDF you opened, the changes you made, and your recent undo steps, and it is kept in this browser's on-device storage (IndexedDB) on this device only. It is never uploaded and never sent to any server. The draft is deleted automatically after 7 days, and it is deleted sooner if you start fresh, close the document, or clear this site's data in your browser. Anyone who uses this browser on this device can open the draft during those 7 days, so please do not rely on it staying private on a shared device. Your signature is not kept in the draft — if you restore a draft, you will be asked to sign again.

This information never leaves your device and is never sent to us. You can remove it at any time by clearing site data / browsing data for this site in your browser settings — clearing site data removes both the local storage items and the IndexedDB items described above. Doing so will not affect any files you have already downloaded.

3. What we do not collect

• No accounts: FormReady has no sign-up, no login and no user profiles, so we hold no names, passwords or account records.
• No payments: FormReady is free in Phase 1 and does not ask for or process any payment, card or bank details.
• No analytics on our own servers: FormReady itself runs no analytics server, so we do not record which pages you visit or how you use the tools on any server we control. Aggregate usage measurement by Google Analytics is described in the note below this list. Advertising on this site is served by Google AdSense, which may use cookies to serve ads — see section 4.
• No tracking cookies of our own: FormReady itself does not set cookies to track you. The only advertising cookies are those used by Google AdSense — see section 4, where you can also find how to opt out. If FormReady itself ever starts setting tracking cookies, this policy will be updated first.

Since October 2026, FormReady also uses Google Analytics to measure aggregate, anonymous usage — such as which pages are visited — and does not identify you personally.

4. Requests your browser makes to other services

To display the site and run its tools, your browser loads fonts and the OCR software and its language data, which are stored on FormReady's own server, and software libraries from a third-party public code library (the cdnjs CDN) — including libraries for working with PDFs, the PDF editor, ZIP downloads and QR codes. This is a normal part of how websites work, but we want to be honest about it: when your browser requests one of those libraries, that provider receives technical information needed to answer the request — typically your IP address, browser type and the time of the request — under that provider's own privacy policy. We do not add your files or any FormReady usage information to those requests, and your exam files are never part of them.

The company that hosts this static website may also keep standard, short-term server logs (such as IP address and pages requested) to deliver the site and protect it from abuse. We do not use hosting logs to identify or profile users.

When you use the Download from Link tool, your browser fetches the file directly from the website your link points to. FormReady has no server in between, and we do not see or store the link you paste or the file you save. That website receives the technical information needed to answer the request — typically your IP address, browser type and the time of the request — together with the link itself, under that website's own privacy policy.

When you use the FormReady Assistant, what you type in the chat is sent to an external AI service so that it can reply to you, and its replies come back to your browser the same way. If you attach a file in the chat, only the file's name, type and size are sent to that service — the file itself is processed on your device by FormReady's tools, is never uploaded, and its contents are never sent. We do not store the conversation on any server: it stays in the page while it is open and is gone when you close or reload it. Please do not type or paste personal details into the chat, such as names, phone numbers, roll numbers or text from your documents.

Advertising: FormReady is connected to Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor's prior visits to this website and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve ads based on visits to this site and/or other sites on the internet.

You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings (adssettings.google.com). You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising on the industry opt-out page at aboutads.info.

Cookie choices on this site are managed by CookieYes, a Google-certified consent management platform. It asks for your consent before advertising and analytics cookies are used, and remembers what you chose. You can review or change your choices at any time using the “Cookie choices” link in the footer of any page.

5. If you contact us by email

If you email us, we will receive your email address and whatever you choose to write in your message. Please do not email us your exam documents, photos, signatures, ID proofs or application details — we never need them, and the tools work without them. We use support emails only to reply to you and to fix problems you report.

6. Your rights

Because FormReady does not collect or store your personal data on any server, there is normally nothing held by us to access, correct or erase. The small preferences stored on your own device (see section 2) are fully under your control and can be cleared in your browser at any time. If you have emailed us and want that email thread deleted, write to us from the same email address and we will delete it, unless we must keep it for a legal reason.

7. Children

Some exam applicants are under 18. FormReady is designed to be safe for them in one simple way: it does not ask for or collect personal information from anyone, of any age. No file, name or contact detail is collected by the tools.

8. Changes to this policy

If a future version of FormReady adds anything that changes this picture — for example accounts, payments, analytics or any feature that sends data to a server — this policy will be updated before that feature goes live, and the change will be shown clearly on this page with a new date.

Update — 23 October 2026: before the full launch, section 4 of this policy was extended to describe two features in full — the Download from Link tool, where your browser fetches a file directly from the website your link points to, and the FormReady Assistant, where your chat text (and an attached file's name, type and size, never its contents) is sent to an AI service so it can reply. FormReady still has no accounts, no payments, no analytics and no server that receives your files.

Update — 23 October 2026: the PDF Editor now keeps a draft of your work on your own device so an accidental tab close doesn't lose it (see sections 1 and 2). Nothing is uploaded, and FormReady still has no server that receives your files.
