By using our website, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect minimal information to provide and improve our services. The types of information we may collect include:

  • Non-Personal Information: Our image conversion tools process files client-side, meaning your images are not uploaded to our servers. We do not collect or store your image files.
  • Usage Data: We may collect anonymized data about how you interact with our website, such as pages visited, time spent, and browser type, through cookies and similar technologies.
  • Device Information: Information like your IP address, device type, operating system, and browser version may be collected automatically to optimize our services.
  • Ad-Related Data: Through Google AdSense, we may collect data for personalized ads, such as cookies and device identifiers, as described in the “Advertising” section below.

We do not collect personally identifiable information (e.g., name, email address) unless you voluntarily provide it, such as through our contact form.

We use the collected information to:

  • Provide and maintain our image conversion tools.

Your images are processed locally in your browser and are not stored or accessed by us.

8. Data Security

We implement reasonable measures to protect your data, such as secure protocols and anonymization. However, no online service is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Your images are processed client-side and not stored, minimizing risks.
