Are my documents sent to a server?
No. "Protect from editing" processes your files directly in your browser: they stay on your device.
Is there a size limit?
The limit mostly depends on your device’s memory. Everyday documents (up to several tens of MB) work without any issue.
Do I need to create an account?
No. The tool is usable right away. A free account is only used to find your history again.
