Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 1, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Currency Converter ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website (the "Service"). By using our Service, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Information We Collect
Our Currency Converter tool performs all calculations locally in your browser. The amounts you enter for conversion are never uploaded, stored, or transmitted to us. We only fetch public exchange-rate data from a third-party API to perform the conversion.
We may collect non-personal information automatically, including:
- Your browser type, device type, and operating system.
- Pages visited, referring URLs, and time spent on pages.
- Approximate geographic region (country-level) derived from your IP address.
Exchange-Rate Data Requests
To show live exchange rates, your browser makes a direct request to a public exchange-rate API (open.er-api.com). That request may include your IP address as part of standard internet communication. The API provider's handling of this data is governed by its own privacy policy. We cache the rate data locally in your browser for one hour to minimize these requests.

We use cookies and local storage to operate the Service, remember your preferences, analyze traffic, and serve relevant advertisements. When you first visit our site, a cookie consent banner appears allowing you to accept or decline non-essential cookies.
- Essential storage: Remembers your cookie consent choice and caches exchange rates for faster conversions.
- Analytics cookies: Help us understand how visitors interact with the site so we can improve it.
- Advertising cookies: Used by third-party ad partners to display personalized ads.
