Privacy Policy
Last updated: 9/5/2025
Introduction
At How To Convert, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our file conversion service. The most important thing to know is that your files are processed locally in your browser and never uploaded to our servers.
Information We Collect
Files You Convert
Your files are processed entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. We do not upload, store, or have access to any files you convert. All conversion happens locally on your device.
Usage Analytics
We may collect anonymous usage statistics to improve our service, such as which file formats are most commonly converted. This data is aggregated and cannot be used to identify individual users.
Technical Information
We may collect basic technical information such as your browser type, operating system, and IP address for security and performance optimization purposes.
How We Use Your Information
- To provide and maintain our file conversion service
- To improve our service based on usage patterns
- To ensure the security and proper functioning of our website
- To communicate with you about service updates or issues
Data Security
Since your files never leave your device, they are inherently secure from external threats. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect our website and any minimal data we do collect. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.
Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services for analytics, error tracking, or other operational purposes. These services may collect information as described in their respective privacy policies. We ensure that any third-party services we use comply with privacy standards.
Cookies
We use cookies to enhance your experience on our website. These may include cookies for remembering your preferences, analyzing website usage, and ensuring proper functionality. You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences.
Your Rights
Since we don't store your files or personal data, there's minimal information to manage. However, you have the right to know what information we collect and how it's used. If you have any questions or concerns about your privacy, please contact us.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
