Security

How the browser-only architecture reduces exposure, and where its boundary ends.

Last updated 24 August 2026

Plain-language noticeThese terms are designed for a South African service with global users. Mandatory rights under your local law still apply.

Local-first design

  • PDF parsing, editing, signing, and export happen in the browser.
  • Document URLs, blobs, signatures, form data, and exports are excluded from the service-worker cache.
  • There are no third-party runtime scripts, analytics SDKs, or remote document processors in V1.
  • Reloading, closing, or starting over clears the working session held by Valo Sign.

Application controls

The production design uses restrictive content-security rules, same-origin workers and fonts, no interactive PDF scripting, disabled XFA processing, local image validation, bounded file and image sizes, and export validation before download.

Your part

  • Use an up-to-date supported browser and trusted device.
  • Keep your original PDF and review the completed export.
  • Treat downloads as sensitive and remove them when no longer needed.
  • Consider disabling untrusted browser extensions when handling confidential material.

Limits

No browser application can protect against a compromised device, malicious extension, operating-system capture, memory inspection, or another person with access to your downloads. Local processing reduces server exposure; it does not make a device invulnerable.
