Privacy Policy
September 15, 2026
Convert.rest was designed so that there is almost nothing to write in a privacy policy: your documents are processed entirely in your browser and are never uploaded to our servers.
1. The core principle: client-side processing
When you convert a file with Convert.rest, the conversion runs locally in your browser using JavaScript and WebAssembly technology. Your file’s content, name, and metadata never leave your device. We have no server that receives, stores, or processes your documents â this is a technical fact, not merely a policy promise.
2. Data we do not collect
We do not collect document contents, uploaded files, email addresses, or account data, because no registration exists on this site. Converted files exist only in your browser memory and disappear when you close the tab.
3. Anonymous usage analytics
If analytics are enabled, we record only anonymous, aggregate events (for example: "a conversion completed") with anonymized IP addresses. No document data, filenames, or personally identifying information is ever included. You can block these scripts with any content blocker without affecting the converter.
4. Browser storage
The site stores a single preference in your browser’s local storage: whether you dismissed the language suggestion banner. No tracking cookies are used.
5. Your rights
Under GDPR and similar regulations you have the right to access, rectify, erase, and restrict the processing of your personal data. Since we hold no personal data about you, there is typically nothing to request — but you may contact us at any time with privacy questions.
6. Changes and contact
If this policy changes, the update will be published on this page with a new revision date. Contact: privacy@convert.rest.
