This Privacy Policy explains how Please Convert This (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses and protects information when you visit pleaseconvertthis.com (the “site”). By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.
Information we collect
Converter inputs. Values you type into our converters are calculated in your browser and are not sent to or stored on our server.
Technical data. Like most websites, our web server automatically records standard log information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page and the date and time of your visit. We use this to keep the site secure and working properly.
Emails you send us. If you contact us by email, we receive your email address and anything you include in your message. We use this only to reply to you and do not add you to any mailing list.
We do not offer user accounts and do not ask you to submit personal information to use the site.
Currency exchange rates
The currency converter uses exchange rates from the European Central Bank, obtained through the Frankfurter API. Rates are fetched by our server, not your browser, and no information about you is included in that request.
Advertising
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this and/or other sites on the internet.
You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info or, in Europe, www.youronlinechoices.eu. For more information, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
Visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland are asked for consent before personalised advertising cookies are used, and can change their choice at any time.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. This site does not set its own cookies for visitors; cookies on the site are set by our advertising and analytics partners as described in this policy. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking cookies will not stop the converters from working, though you may still see non-personalised ads.
Analytics
We may use Google Analytics to understand, in aggregate, how visitors find and use the site (for example, which converters are most popular). Google Analytics uses cookies and collects information such as pages visited and approximate location. You can opt out using the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
How long we keep information
Server logs are kept only as long as needed for security and troubleshooting. Emails are kept only as long as needed to deal with your enquiry. Data collected by Google is retained according to Google’s Privacy Policy.
International transfers
Our hosting provider and partners such as Google may process information in countries other than your own. Where this happens, they are responsible for applying appropriate safeguards under applicable law.
Your rights
Depending on where you live — for example under the EU and UK GDPR, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), or South Africa’s Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) — you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal information we hold about you, to object to or restrict its use, to withdraw consent, and to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. To make a request, contact us using the details below.
Children’s privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your country), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
Third-party links
The site may link to other websites. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those sites.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date.
