How long are analysis results stored?

Analysis results are stored permanently in our database. Once you upload and analyze a PDF, the results remain accessible indefinitely at the unique URL (htpbe.tech/result/[unique-id]).

This permanent storage has several benefits:

• You can reference analysis results months or years later for audits or legal proceedings
• Shared links remain valid indefinitely, ensuring recipients can always view results
• Historical analysis can be compared if you check the same document multiple times

What is stored permanently: Analysis metadata, risk scores, modification status, creation/modification dates, creator/producer information, structural findings, and detection results.

What is NOT stored permanently: The actual PDF file content. As mentioned in our privacy policy, uploaded PDF files are automatically deleted from storage approximately one hour after upload. Only the analysis results remain.

This approach ensures you have long-term access to verification results while protecting your document privacy and minimizing storage of sensitive file content.
