Privacy Policy for ConvertWiz

Effective Date: March 29, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how the ConvertWiz Chrome Extension ("the Extension") handles user data. We are committed to a privacy-first approach, collecting only the minimum data necessary to improve the extension.

1. Core Functionality — No Data Collected

All unit, currency, and timezone conversions are performed locally within your browser. The values you see on web pages are never sent to our servers. Your browsing history is never tracked or logged.

2. Install & Usage Telemetry

When you install the Extension for the first time, a one-time anonymous signal is sent to our server to help us understand our user base. No data is collected on subsequent launches or updates.

Additionally, when your cumulative usage reaches certain milestones (1,000 conversions, 10,000, 50,000, etc.), a single anonymous signal is sent for aggregate analytics. The milestone count itself is stored locally across your devices via your browser's sync storage and is never sent to our servers except as part of these milestone pings.

The following information is included in this signal:

Field Example Purpose
Extension version 1.2.0 Track which version is being installed
Browser language en-US, fr-FR Understand the languages our users speak
Timezone Europe/London Understand regional distribution
Platform Windows, macOS Ensure compatibility across operating systems
Country Germany Understand geographic distribution. Derived from your IP address via a third-party geo-lookup service (ipapi.co); the IP address itself is not stored
No IP address, name, email, or browsing history is stored. The data above cannot be used to identify you personally.

3. Feedback and Bug Reports

When you voluntarily submit a report or feedback via the Extension, the following data is collected:

Field Required? Purpose
Report type Yes Categorise the submission (e.g. incorrect conversion, feature request)
Original & converted values Yes (for conversion reports) Reproduce and fix the reported issue
Comment No Additional context you choose to provide
Email address No Used only to follow up on your submission. Stored locally on your device for convenience; sent to us only if you provide it
Page URL Optional (consent checkbox) Helps us reproduce the issue on the exact page. Only sent if you explicitly check the "Share page URL" option in the report dialog. If unchecked, only the website domain is sent
Feedback is submitted only when you click "Send". Nothing is sent automatically while you browse.

4. Permissions and Their Purpose

To provide its core functionality, the Extension requires the following permissions:

6. Data Retention and Your Rights

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the right to access, correct, or delete your data under the GDPR. To exercise these rights, please contact us directly.
