Frequently asked questions
Can I unlock a PDF without knowing the password?
If it's an open password, you need to know it. If the PDF opens but won't let you print or copy, you can remove those restrictions without one.
Is it legal to remove the password?
Yes, for your own documents or ones you're entitled to use, like protected statements or payslips. Don't use it to bypass others' rights.
Is it processed in my browser or on a server?
Unlock PDF uses a hybrid engine: whatever can be done in your browser happens there, with nothing uploaded; when the server is needed, files travel encrypted, are processed in memory and deleted after one hour.
Is it free? Are there any limits?
Yes: free, no sign-up, and no watermark on the result. Without signing up, each file can be up to 50 MB (up to 20 files per task); signing in for free or with PRO raises it to 100 MB, and the PRO plan expands request limits and unlocks AI tools.
