PRO

We can't stop a document from leaking. We make sure you know exactly who did it — and can cut off their access instantly.

Invisible fingerprinting

Every protected copy carries a unique, invisible trace back to who it was sent to — survives copy-paste, not just the file itself.

Revoke access, anytime

Cut off the share link instantly, even after it's already been opened — anyone who tries it next gets locked out immediately. (Applies to the link itself, not a copy someone already downloaded — nothing can reach into a file once it's left our servers.)

Real-time alerts

Get notified the moment someone copies, screenshots, or opens your document on a new device.

Geofencing

Restrict who can open a document by country.

Burn-after-read

Set a view limit or an expiry date — the link stops working the moment either is hit.

Photo verification on open

The only PDF tool that shows you exactly who's opening your document — a photo, straight to you, approve or deny in 60 seconds.

Camera check on open

Opt-in confirmation that a real person is reading it, not a phone aimed at the screen.

Legal evidence export

One click bundles the access log and fingerprint match into a DMCA-ready exhibit if a leak needs to be traced.

Document analytics

Every document you send tracked in one place — views, shares, which countries opened it, and exactly when.

Tracking beacon

Opt-in check-in the moment a document is opened in Adobe Acrobat or Reader — works even on a downloaded, offline copy. Adobe-specific; other PDF viewers won't trigger it.

Auto-lock on copy or screenshot attempt

Turn it on for any document and the share link revokes itself the instant a copy attempt or screenshot shortcut is detected in the viewer — same as hitting Revoke yourself.

Free, permanently

The conversion tools aren't a trial. They're half of what this is.

No account needed for any free tool. Sign up only when you want fingerprinting, revocation, or the rest of the Pro toolset.

Your files are safer here than they are on your desktop.

Every tool, free or Pro, runs on the same infrastructure. Nothing is held back for paying customers when it comes to how your files are handled.

TLS encrypted in transit

Every upload and download

AES-256 on protected files

Frequently asked questions

The ones people actually ask us.

What do I get with the free tools?

Every conversion, merge, split, compress, and security tool on the site — full functionality, no watermark forced onto your output, no signup, no limit on how many times you use them.

Why would I upgrade to Pro?

The free tools handle getting your document into the right format. Pro is for when the document leaves your hands and you still need to control it — invisible fingerprinting, instant revocation, and alerts if someone copies or screenshots it.

Is my data safe with iGuardPDF?

Files are sent over an encrypted connection, processed, and deleted — we don't keep a copy or use your documents for anything else. Files run through Password Protect are encrypted with AES-256, the same standard banks use.

What happens to my files after I upload them?

They're processed and then deleted from our servers. We don't archive uploads, and free-tool files are never used to train any AI model.

Do I need an account to use the tools?

No. Every free tool works with no signup. You only need an account for Pro features, since those require us to track and manage access to a document over time.
