Easier than Preview
Preview can combine PDFs, but you have to open the sidebar, show thumbnails and drag pages from one window into another, one file at a time. Here you drop all the files at once, put them in order and save.
It all happens in your browser on your Mac, so it's just as private as Preview: nothing is uploaded.
