With two-factor authentication, role-based access and activity logs, we make sure users meet the necessary security standards. 

Writer is one product in Zoho's much larger, 45+ business and productivity application portfolio. Zoho has been a profitable, bootstrapped, privately-held company for over 20 years; we've been offering free (and ad-free) productivity apps for more than a decade. While some of our products are free, others are paid. Paid products subsidize our free apps. Free apps bring more awareness to our paid apps and brand in general. Our business model is as simple as that. There's no hidden agenda here to sell user data for ads.

To put it simply:

► We don't own your data. You do.

► We'll never sell your data

► We don't read your notes

► We'll never do advertisements

All your documents are securely stored within Zoho's infrastructure, with multiple data centers across the United States and Europe. For our users in the European region - data of accounts created with zoho.eu resides only in our EU data centers.

You can access and change your account settings anytime to update and complete your account information. Also contact us at support@eu.zohopdf.com to access, correct, amend or delete information we have about you.

Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest. The server always stores encryption keys and user data in an encrypted format. Writer is secured with TLS 1.2 and 256-bit AES encryption. In case of a data breach or leak, end-to-end encryption will keep you anonymous.

Right of Access allows individuals to be aware of and verify the lawfulness of our data processing activities. Activity logs can be monitored when a document is shared, modified, exported or accessed.

You can delete all created, uploaded, and edited data inside Writer when it's no longer relevant. 

We've also added some additional features to help making your Writer experience even more secure:

PDF Editor makes document sharing more secure with the inclusion of password protection in its link-sharing feature. This is especially helpful as document links shared without password protection might be easily accessible by anyone who gets hold of the link.

✔ Users and administrators are allowed to decide who can access the content, and for how long. 

✔ Access can be revoked any time—even after the documents are shared. Access to personal data is provided based on user roles.  

✔ You can also set an expiry date to documents shared via a link, which will make them inaccessible after the expiry date.
