FAQ

What is the most common leak?

Author names in core properties and tracked changes that were never accepted.

Why do macros matter?

They do not run in the browser, but they will run on the recipient machine if the file is opened in Office.

Is the document uploaded?

No, the package is unpacked in the page.

Files never leave your device

Processing happens in your browser using the File API, WebAssembly and Web Workers. There is no upload endpoint.
