Privacy Policy
The Office File is a free template library. This policy explains what information is collected when you use the site, how it is used, and the choices you have. It was last updated on 28 October 2026.
Information we collect directly
The site does not require an account, a sign-up, or an email address to browse or download templates. We do not operate a mailing list and we do not ask you to submit personal information to use the site. If you contact us through theContact page, we receive only what you choose to send in your message (such as your name, email address, and the content of your request), and we use it only to reply to you.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, this site is served through a hosting provider (Vercel), which may log basic technical information when pages are requested, such as IP addresses, browser type, and requested URLs, for security and performance purposes. The site also loads fonts from Google Fonts; Google may receive your IP address and browser information when fonts are loaded, as described in Google's privacy policy.
The site does not use its own analytics cookies and does not track you across other websites. Downloading a template does not send us your name, your company, or the contents of your edited document: editing happens on your own device, in your own software.
Advertising and cookies
When advertising is active on this site, third-party advertising partners, including Google AdSense when ads are displayed, may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to serve ads, measure their performance, and, where you have consented, personalise ads based on your interests. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this site and other sites.
You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google'sAds Settings, and you can control cookies through your browser settings at any time. When advertising is active on this site, visitors in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom will be shown a consent prompt for advertising cookies where required by law; if you decline, you will still be able to use the site, and ads shown will not be personalised.
How we use information
Information described above is used to operate and secure the site, to respond to messages you send us, to understand which templates are popular so we can prioritise new ones, and to fund the site through advertising. We do not sell personal information to anyone, and we do not share contact messages with third parties except where required by law.
Data retention
Contact messages are kept only as long as needed to answer them. Server and hosting logs are retained by the hosting provider under its own retention policy. Advertising cookies are set and controlled by the advertising partners, not by this site, and their lifetimes are governed by those partners' policies.
Children
This site is a workplace resource intended for adults. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has contacted us, please let us know via theContact page so the message can be deleted.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated when the site changes, for example if analytics or new advertising partners are added. Material changes will be reflected by updating the date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
