Is my PDF uploaded to a server?

No. Page numbers are added entirely in your browser using pdf-lib, so your file never leaves your device.

Can I start numbering from a number other than 1?

Yes. Set any whole number as the starting value and each page increments from there, so you can match existing documents or skip cover pages.
