Privacy Policy
Last Updated: July 18, 2024
Welcome to unitsconverter.in ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data in an open and transparent manner. This Privacy Policy is designed to help you understand what information we collect, why we collect it, and how you can manage it. This policy applies to all of our services, including our website, applications, and any other services we may offer (collectively, the "Services").
By using our Services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. We have made our best effort to write this policy in clear and plain language. If you have any questions or concerns about our policy or our practices with regards to your personal information, please contact us.
1. Information We Collect
Our philosophy is to collect as little user data as is necessary to provide and improve our Services. The information we collect can be broadly categorized as follows:
A. Information You Provide to Us
Currently, unitsconverter.in is a tool that does not require user registration or the creation of a personal account. As such, we do not directly collect personally identifiable information such as your name, email address, physical address, or phone number. Any interaction that might involve providing information, such as through a contact form or feedback survey, is purely voluntary. In such cases, we would only collect the information you choose to provide, for the sole purpose of responding to your inquiry or using your feedback to improve the service.
B. Information We Collect Automatically
When you access and use unitsconverter.in, we may collect certain information automatically from your device. This information is primarily non-personally-identifying and is used for analytics and service improvement. This data may include:
- Log and Usage Data: Like most websites, our servers automatically collect log data when you access our Services. This data may include your device's Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type and settings, the date and time of your request, how you used the Services, and cookie data. While an IP address can sometimes be used to estimate a general location, it does not identify you personally.
- Device Information: We may collect information about the device you are using to access our Services, such as the type of device, its operating system, and browser type. This helps us ensure our website is optimized for different devices and browsers.
- Usage Data: We collect information about how you interact with our Services. This includes which converters are used most frequently, what features are popular, and how users navigate the site. This information is aggregated and anonymized. It is crucial for helping us understand which tools are most valuable to our users, allowing us to prioritize improvements and develop new features that meet user demand. We do not track which specific conversions an individual user performs.
- Cookies and Similar Technologies: We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our Services and hold certain information. Cookies are small files placed on your device. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Services. We use cookies primarily for site functionality and to gather analytics data. Our partners, including AdSense, may also use cookies to serve personalized ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for a variety of business purposes, described below:
- To Provide, Operate, and Maintain our Services: We use the collected data to ensure our converters are functioning correctly, to display content properly on your device, and to enable navigation throughout the site.
- To Improve, Personalize, and Expand our Services: By analyzing aggregated usage data, we can understand which features are most popular and which are underutilized. This insight guides our development process, helping us to improve existing tools and decide which new converters to build. It helps us answer questions like, "Should we add more engineering converters or focus on financial ones?"
- To Understand and Analyze How You Use Our Services: Analytics help us monitor and analyze trends and user activity. This allows us to troubleshoot technical issues, identify performance bottlenecks, and make data-driven decisions about the design and functionality of our website. For example, if we see many users dropping off from a particular page, it might indicate a design flaw we need to fix.
- For Security Purposes: Log data, including IP addresses, may be used to protect the security of our Services, to prevent fraud, and to detect and block malicious activity such as denial-of-service attacks.
- For Advertising: We may use third-party advertising companies, such as Google AdSense, to serve ads when you visit our website. These companies may use information (not including your name, address, email address, or telephone number) about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.
- To Communicate with You: If you have voluntarily contacted us, we will use the information you provided to respond to your questions, comments, or feedback.
3. Sharing and Disclosure of Information
We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise share your personal information for marketing purposes. We are committed to maintaining your trust, and we want you to understand when and with whom we may share the information we collect.
- Third-Party Service Providers: We may share non-personally identifiable, aggregated data with third-party vendors and service providers that perform services for us or on our behalf. This is limited to services such as web hosting and analytics (e.g., Google Analytics). These third parties are contractually obligated to use the data only to perform the services for us and are prohibited from using it for any other purpose.
- As Required By Law and Similar Disclosures: We may access, preserve, and disclose your information if we believe doing so is required or appropriate to: (a) comply with law enforcement or national security requests and legal process, such as a court order or subpoena; (b) protect your, our, or others' rights, property, or safety; (c) enforce our policies or contracts; or (d) assist with an investigation or prosecution of suspected or actual illegal activity.
- Merger, Sale, or Other Asset Transfers: In the event that we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing due diligence, reorganization, bankruptcy, receivership, purchase or sale of assets, or transition of service to another provider, your information may be transferred as part of such a transaction, as permitted by law and/or contract.
4. Data Retention
We retain the information we collect for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected. Aggregated and anonymized analytics data may be retained for longer periods to analyze long-term trends. Any personal information you voluntarily provide through contact forms will be retained only for as long as necessary to address your inquiry.
5. Security of Your Information
We use a variety of security measures to protect the information we collect. We have implemented administrative, technical, and physical security procedures to protect information stored on our servers. However, please be aware that despite our best efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.
6. Children's Privacy
Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will take steps to delete that information as quickly as possible.
7. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
