## Description

PDF Secure is a free, ad-free Chrome extension that puts privacy first. It allows you to password-protect PDFs so the file won’t open without the password, and it works on any platform. All processing happens on your device, with no data collection.

Using PDF Secure is easy: pick a PDF, choose a strong password, and export the secured file anywhere—files app, cloud drives, email, AirDrop, etc. You can also remove password protection when needed. It supports dark mode, and it’s completely free with no ads or in-app purchases.
