Last updated: January 30, 2026

Our Commitment to Your Privacy

At MD File Viewer (mdfileviewer.com), we take your privacy seriously. Our free online Markdown Live Preview editor is designed with privacy as a core principle. We believe that your documents and files should remain yours alone.

How We Handle Your Data

Client-Side Processing

Our MD File Viewer operates entirely within your web browser. This means:

  • Your Markdown files are never uploaded to our servers
  • All file processing, rendering, and preview generation happens locally in your browser
  • We have no access to the content of your documents
  • Your files remain completely private and under your control

No Account Required

Unlike many online tools, MD File Viewer does not require you to create an account, provide an email address, or share any personal information to use our service. You can start editing immediately with complete anonymity.
