h3 Is PDFy a free service? What is your business model?
|
|
p Yes, it is free, and it will always stay free! PDFy is non-commercial and runs entirely off donations - there's no intention to make a profit, and everything is done on a shoestring budget.
|
|
p If you'd like to contribute to keeping the lights on, please do make a donation by <a href="/donate">clicking here</a>!

h3 Do you show advertisements?
|
|
p No, and we never will. We consider advertisements to be unethical, in that they are explicitly designed to manipulate people for personal gains - that's not something we wish to support.
|
|
p Jason Scott has <a href="http://www.textfiles.com/thoughts/advertising.html">written a bit more on the subject here</a>. He's not affiliated with PDFy, but shares the same point of view on advertising.

|
h3 Do you keep track of who uploads a document?
|
|
p Not really. We only keep standard <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_log">access logs</a>, but do not explicitly keep track of who uploads what document. The full privacy policy can be found <a href="/tos">here</a>.

h3 Something is broken! Can you fix it?
|
|
p Sure. Either <a href="mailto:pdfy@cryto.net">e-mail us</a> (private) or <a href="http://github.com/joepie91/node-pdfy/issues">file an issue ticket</a> (public).

h3 I accidentally uploaded the wrong document! Can you remove it?
|
|
p Instructions for that can be found <a href="/abuse">here</a>.

|
|
h3 Why don't you give an automatic deletion link to the uploader, like Imgur does?
|
|
p This would give the false impression that a document is really deleted. All public documents are automatically mirrored to the Internet Archive, and all documents (both public and unlisted) could have been downloaded by any reader, so there's no guarantee that it will really be gone. By not providing a deletion link, we hope to encourage people to think carefully before uploading something to the internet publicly, and to prevent 'oversharing'.
|
|
p If you <em>really</em> need a document removed, you can find instructions <a href="/abuse">here</a>.
