Is PDF Finder a mass downloading tool ethical? Is it legal? Absolutely. Here is why.
Automation is not "Hacking"
It's crucial to understand the difference:
- Manual: You open a page, see a link, click "Save as".
- PDF Finder: Does the same thing, but automatically and very fast. It reads the public code of the page.
- Hacker: Attempts to bypass security, guess passwords, or break access. PDF Finder never does this.
Our Responsible Commitment
- Public Files Only: We only find what is visible.
- Respect for Access: If a site requires a password, you must log in via your browser *before* sharing the URL. The app does not bypass login.
- Scan Limit: Recursive scanning is limited to 5 levels to avoid overloading visited servers.
PDF Finder is a neutral productivity tool. Use it responsibly, respecting copyright and site terms.
