Is there a file size limit?

A single file may be up to 100 MB, and a batch up to 50 files. Those are guardrails rather than a paid tier — the work happens on your machine, so an enormous document is limited by your own memory before it is limited by us.

Is it safe to use for a document with personal details in it?

That is the design goal: the document stays on your device, so a statement, a contract or an ID photo is never transmitted for processing. Nothing here needs an internet connection once the page has loaded, apart from engines that fetch their own model data.

Will it work on a phone?

Yes. The layout adapts to a small screen and the processing runs in the mobile browser, so a photo or a downloaded document can be handled on the device it arrived on.

Is Type Signature safe to use for a document with real names in it?

It is the category of tool where privacy matters most, which is why the work is done locally: the document is never transmitted, and neither is the password you type into it.

This places your signature image on the page (an electronic signature). It is not a certified digital signature with a cryptographic certificate — viewers will show it as an image, and “Signed” status badges require a certification authority.
