PDF HUB 24 automatically deletes all uploaded files within 1 hour. Learn how our automatic file deletion works to protect your privacy.
Every file you upload to PDF HUB 24 is automatically and permanently deleted within 1 hour. No exceptions, no extensions, no copies retained — this applies whether or not you've downloaded your processed file.
Deletion is based on upload time, not download status. All temporary files, processing artifacts, cached data, and intermediate outputs are deleted along with the primary files — nothing related to your document remains on our servers afterward.
Files are permanently removed from the filesystem, not merely marked as deleted; storage space is overwritten, making recovery impossible even with forensic tools. Once deleted, files cannot be recovered by anyone, including our own team — we do not maintain backups of user files, so always download your processed output before the deletion window expires.
