Who operates this website

PracticalConvert is the website operator for practicalconvert.com. For privacy questions, correction requests or data protection requests, contact contact@practicalconvert.com.

Converter inputs

Values entered into converter fields are used to calculate results in your browser. This can include dimensions, weights, recipe amounts, clothing measurements, time values, time zone choices and similar measurement inputs. Do not enter sensitive personal information into converter fields.

Information we may receive

PracticalConvert may receive information you choose to send by email, such as your email address, message content, page URL, input values you report and the result you expected. Hosting, security and performance providers may also process standard technical information such as IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referring page and approximate time of visit.

Contact messages and error reports

If you contact PracticalConvert by email, the information you send is used to respond to your message, investigate reported calculation issues, improve page content or maintain reasonable business records. When reporting a calculator issue, avoid sending sensitive personal information and include only the page link, input values and expected result needed to review the issue.

How information is used

Information is used to operate the website, calculate results, respond to messages, investigate reported issues, improve converter accuracy, protect the website from abuse, understand general performance and maintain business records where necessary.

Cookies, analytics and advertising

PracticalConvert does not currently require advertising, analytics, remarketing, affiliate tracking or similar non-essential cookies for the basic converter tools to work. Essential website technologies may still be used for hosting, security, caching, page delivery or browser functionality.

If analytics, advertising, affiliate tracking, remarketing pixels or similar non-essential technologies are added later, the relevant policy pages should be updated to identify the active services and explain what they are used for. Where required by law, PracticalConvert should ask for consent before these non-essential technologies run, and users should be able to reject non-essential cookies as easily as they can accept them.

If Google AdSense or similar advertising services are added, third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to PracticalConvert or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to this website and other websites. Ads may be personalized or non-personalized depending on the user’s region, consent choices, browser settings and the advertising services used.

Legal bases and privacy rights

Depending on your location, privacy laws may give you rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, objection, opt out of certain processing, or withdraw consent where consent is used. PracticalConvert will review reasonable requests sent to the contact email above. Some requests may be limited by security, legal, technical or record-keeping reasons.

If you are located in a region with specific privacy rights, including the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, California, India or other jurisdictions with privacy laws, you may contact us to make a privacy request or grievance. PracticalConvert does not currently provide user accounts, payments or profile storage for basic converter use.

Data sharing

PracticalConvert does not sell personal information directly through the website. Information may be shared with service providers that help host, secure, analyze or operate the website; with professional advisers if needed; or when required by law, legal process or to protect rights, safety and security.

If advertising, analytics, affiliate tracking or email tools are added, the relevant third-party providers should be listed in this policy or cookie notice before those services are enabled in production.

External links

PracticalConvert may link to third-party websites, tools, references, advertisers or affiliate partners. Those websites are not operated by PracticalConvert and may follow their own privacy, cookie, advertising and security practices. Review the relevant third-party policies before sharing information with them.

Data retention

Contact messages may be retained for as long as needed to respond, improve the website and maintain reasonable business records. Technical logs are retained according to the settings of hosting, security and analytics providers. Data that is no longer needed should be deleted or anonymized when practical.

International visitors

The website can be accessed from different countries. Your information may be processed in countries where PracticalConvert or its service providers operate. Privacy protections may vary by country, but reasonable steps should be used to protect information handled for website operation.

Children’s privacy

PracticalConvert is intended for general audiences and does not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so the request can be reviewed.

Security

PracticalConvert uses a static website approach for the converter pages and does not require account passwords for basic use. No website can guarantee perfect security, so avoid sending sensitive information through converter fields or email.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated when tools, analytics, advertising, email subscriptions, user accounts or other features change. The updated date will show when the policy was last revised.
