Introduction

Welcome to Length Converter (lengthconverter.io). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring a secure experience while using our free online length unit conversion service. This Privacy Policy explains our data practices and your rights regarding any information collected when you use our website.

Our Commitment to Privacy

Length Converter is designed with privacy in mind. Our length conversion tool operates entirely within your browser, performing all calculations locally on your device. We do not collect, store, or process any personal information from our users.

Information We Do NOT Collect

Unlike many online services, we do NOT collect:

  • Personal identification information (name, email address, phone number)
  • Account or registration data (no accounts required)
  • Conversion history or calculation data
  • Device identifiers or tracking information
  • Location data
  • Payment or billing information (our service is completely free)

Minimal Data Collection

1. Anonymous Analytics

We use privacy-focused analytics to understand general usage patterns:

  • What We Track: Page views, general geographic regions (country-level), browser types, and device categories
  • How It's Used: To improve our service and ensure compatibility across different platforms
  • No Personal Data: All analytics data is aggregated and anonymous

2. Technical Cookies

We use minimal, essential cookies:

  • Functionality Cookies: Store your preferences (such as preferred units or decimal places) locally in your browser
  • No Tracking Cookies: We do not use cookies for advertising or cross-site tracking
  • Your Control: You can clear these cookies at any time through your browser settings

3. Server Logs

Our web server automatically collects standard technical information:

  • What's Logged: IP addresses (anonymized), request timestamps, and pages accessed
  • Retention: Server logs are automatically deleted after 30 days
  • Purpose: Security monitoring and troubleshooting technical issues

How the Length Converter Works

Our length converter tool:

  • Runs entirely in your web browser using JavaScript
  • Does not send your conversion data to our servers
  • Works offline once the page is loaded
  • Stores preferences only in your local browser storage

Third-Party Services

Content Delivery Network (CDN)

We use Cloudflare to deliver our website quickly and securely worldwide. Cloudflare may collect minimal technical data according to their privacy policy, but this data is not accessible to us for individual user identification.

No Advertising Networks

We do not use any advertising networks or tracking pixels on our website.

Data Security

While we don't collect personal data, we maintain high security standards:

  • HTTPS encryption for all connections
  • Regular security updates and monitoring
  • No user databases to breach or compromise

Children's Privacy

Our service does not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. The Length Converter is a general-purpose tool available to all ages without requiring any personal information.

International Users

Length Converter is accessible worldwide. As we don't collect personal data, there are no international data transfers to be concerned about. All conversions happen locally in your browser.

Your Rights

Since we don't collect personal information, traditional data rights (access, deletion, correction) don't apply. However, you always have the right to:

  • Use our service anonymously
  • Clear your browser cookies and local storage
  • Contact us with any privacy concerns

Do Not Track

We respect "Do Not Track" browser settings. When detected, we ensure no analytics or non-essential cookies are used.
