Is this PDF safe to email?
Short answer
Run the privacy checker below for a 0–100 score (hidden text, PII, metadata, scripts). If the file is large, compress for Gmail or Outlook. For a full pipeline, use Confidential Send. Nothing is uploaded to mypdf.space.

How it works
- 1
Drop your PDF into the privacy checker above — it stays in your browser.
- 2
Read the 0–100 privacy score and each checklist category.
- 3
Use the fix links (Redact, Auto-redact, Deep Clean, Confidential Send), then re-check before sharing.
Files never leave your device
Your PDF is processed in this browser tab. Files never leave your device, and mypdf.space does not receive uploads. No account, no watermark, no server-side copy.
Limits worth knowing
- “Safe” means the local checklist — not a legal guarantee.
- Recipient security still depends on how you send the file.
