Counted with the browser's Performance API during the last job. It sees every request the page makes, but not what is inside them, so anything that is not a static download is counted above.
To check yourself: open DevTools → Network, clear the list, run the tool, and inspect each request. None will contain your file. You can also switch to offline after the page loads; tools whose engine is already downloaded keep working.

See who wrote and last edited a Word file
Word saves author names, the last person to modify the file, and timestamps. Check them before sending a document outside your organisation, or to see where a received file came from.
- Checking a CV or proposal doesn't carry a previous author's name.
- Seeing when a document was created and last saved.
Reads the core document properties
The report shows the Word file's core properties: title, subject, author, keywords, description, the last person who saved it, and its created and modified dates, where set.
- To remove names, use File › Info › Check for Issues › Inspect Document in Word.
Properties can be edited by anyone
Metadata isn't proof of authorship or dates. Fields that were never filled in show as empty.
- Remove personal information with Word's Inspect Document before sharing externally.
DOCX metadata viewer: questions
What information does a Word file store about me?
Often your name as author and last modifier, plus created and modified dates, and sometimes title, subject and keywords.
How do I remove my name from a Word document?
In Word, use File › Info › Check for Issues › Inspect Document and remove Document Properties and Personal Information.
Can I trust the dates?
They're what the saving software recorded and can be changed, so treat them as a hint, not proof.
Is the file uploaded to read its properties?
No. The properties are read in your browser.
