This Privacy Policy explains how ConvertFilesTool (https://convertfilestool.com) collects, uses, and protects any information when you use our platform. We have written this to be direct and readable, not to bury important details in legal language.
What Data We Collect
Files You Process
The majority of tools on this platform process your files entirely within your browser using client-side JavaScript. For these tools, your files are never transmitted to our servers. They are read by your browser, processed locally, and returned to you as a download. We have no access to their contents at any point.
For tools that require server-side processing (where browser-only processing is not technically feasible), files are uploaded over an encrypted HTTPS connection, processed, and the result is returned to you. These files are automatically deleted from our servers immediately after the operation completes. We do not retain, analyze, log, or share the contents of processed files.
Usage Data
We collect standard web analytics data that most websites collect: pages visited, time on page, browser type, device type, and approximate geographic region (country-level only). This data is aggregated and anonymized. It helps us understand which tools are used most and where we should invest development effort. We do not track individual users across sessions.
Contact Information
If you contact us by email at info@convertfilestool.com, we retain the content of your message and your email address for the purpose of responding to your inquiry. We do not add you to any mailing list, and we do not share your contact information with third parties.
Cookies
We use a small number of cookies to make the platform function correctly and to measure traffic through our analytics provider. These include:
- Functional cookies: Required for the site to work, including basic session and preference storage
- Analytics cookies: Used by our analytics provider to measure aggregate page traffic and usage patterns
- Advertising cookies: Used by our advertising partners to display relevant ads on the platform
You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. Disabling functional cookies may affect the usability of some tools.
Advertising
ConvertFilesTool is free to use and supported by advertising. We work with advertising partners who may display ads on the platform. These partners may use cookies or pixel tags to measure ad performance. We do not share personally identifiable information with advertising partners. Advertisers do not have access to your files or the results of your file operations at any point.
Third-Party Services
We use a small number of third-party services to operate the platform, including analytics and content delivery services. These services operate under their own privacy policies. We do not sell, rent, or trade any user data with third parties.
Security
All data transmitted between your browser and our servers uses HTTPS encryption. For server-side file processing operations, files are handled in temporary storage and deleted immediately on completion. We do not maintain databases of processed files, user accounts, or personal profiles.
Children's Privacy
ConvertFilesTool 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 at info@convertfilestool.com and we will delete it promptly.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the platform after a policy update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
