Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 2025
This Privacy Policy describes how DevConverter (“we”, “us”, or “our”) handles information when you use our website at devconverter.org (the “Service”). We are committed to protecting your privacy. Our core principle is simple: all conversion tools run entirely in your browser, and the data you enter into any tool is never transmitted to our servers.
1. Information We Collect
Data you enter into tools: All processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Text, files, and other input you provide to any tool on this site are never sent to our servers. We have no access to this data.
Local storage: Some tools save your last 10 conversion results to your browser’s localStorage for convenience. This data remains on your device and is never transmitted to us. You can clear it at any time through your browser settings.
Server logs: Our hosting provider automatically collects standard web server logs, which may include your IP address, browser type (User-Agent), referring URL, pages visited, and access timestamps. These logs are used for security, abuse prevention, and aggregate traffic analysis. We do not use these logs to identify individual users.
Analytics: We may use privacy-respecting analytics tools to understand aggregate usage patterns (e.g., which tools are most used, traffic volume). Any analytics we use collect only anonymized, aggregated data and do not track individual users across sessions or sites.
2. Advertising (Google AdSense)
This website displays advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites on the internet.
Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or www.aboutads.info.
For more information on how Google uses data when you use our site, see Google’s Privacy & Terms.
3. Cookies
We use the following types of cookies:
- Strictly necessary: Essential for the website to function. These cannot be disabled.
- Functional: Used to remember your preferences (e.g., tool settings). Stored in localStorage, not cookies.
- Advertising: Set by Google AdSense to serve relevant advertisements. You can opt out as described in Section 2.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling advertising cookies will result in less relevant ads but will not affect the functionality of our tools.
4. How We Use Information
We use the limited information we collect to:
- Operate and maintain the website
- Monitor and prevent abuse, fraud, and security threats
- Understand aggregate usage to improve the service
- Comply with legal obligations
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties except as necessary to operate our hosting infrastructure and serve advertisements, as described in this policy.
5. Data Retention
Server logs are retained for up to 90 days for security and operational purposes, after which they are automatically deleted. Data you store locally in your browser (localStorage) persists until you clear it through your browser settings.
6. Your Rights (GDPR and Global)
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding any personal data we hold about you:
- Right of access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Right to rectification: Request correction of inaccurate data.
- Right to erasure: Request deletion of your personal data.
- Right to object: Object to processing of your personal data.
- Right to data portability: Request transfer of your data in a portable format.
- Right to withdraw consent: Withdraw consent for data processing where consent is the legal basis.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. Because we collect minimal personal data, most requests can be fulfilled by clearing your browser’s localStorage and cookies for this site.
EU residents have the right to lodge a complaint with their national data protection authority if they believe we have not complied with applicable data protection law.
7. Children's Privacy
DevConverter is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
8. Third-Party Services
Our website is hosted on infrastructure provided by third parties (such as Vercel or Cloudflare). These providers may process your IP address and request data as part of their standard operations. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.
We do not embed third-party tracking pixels, social media buttons, or other external resources that would allow third parties to track you across the web, except for Google AdSense as described above.
9. International Data Transfers
Our hosting infrastructure may be located in multiple countries, including the United States. If you are accessing the Service from the European Economic Area (EEA) or other regions with data protection laws, please be aware that your information may be transferred to countries that may not provide the same level of data protection as your home country.
Where required, such transfers are safeguarded by standard contractual clauses or other appropriate legal mechanisms.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
