What happens to your Markdown
Short version: on the public converter, nothing leaves your tab. If you sign in, your projects sync to our database so you can pick them up on another device - that is the trade-off accounts make explicit.
The public converter
The page at md2document.com runs the Markdown parser, the PDF engine and the preview entirely in your browser. The Markdown you paste, the images you drag in and the PDF or DOCX that comes out all stay in your tab. You can verify by opening the browser network panel before clicking Export - you will not see a request that contains your text.
Signed-in projects
If you sign up and use the dashboard, your project state - the Markdown text, the template, design, font choice and field values - syncs to our database (Cloudflare D1). That lets you reopen the same project on another device. It also means your text is no longer just in the tab.
We do not read those projects, do not train on them and do not share them. They sit in your account and stay there until you delete them. The conversion itself still runs in your browser when you click Export - the database stores the source, not the rendered output.
What we collect across the whole site
- Anonymous traffic stats via privacy-respecting analytics. Page visits, referrer, country. No identifiers.
- Server logs- standard Cloudflare access logs. Retained per Cloudflare's defaults.
- Account data if you sign up - email, name (if provided), the projects you create. Managed via Clerk for auth and stored in Cloudflare D1.
What we don't collect
- The Markdown you paste in the public converter without signing in.
- The images you drop in.
- The PDF or DOCX you export - we don't see it.
- Tracking cookies. We do not set any.
- Your IP beyond standard request logs.
How to verify
Open the browser's network panel before exporting on the public converter (no account, no sign-in). You will not see a request that contains your Markdown. If you are signed in, you will see project-save requests as you edit - that is the sync.
