Currency Exchange Rates

The Currency Converter feature fetches exchange rates from Frankfurter (frankfurter.dev), a free, open-source exchange-rate service based on data published by central banks, including the European Central Bank.

When the app refreshes rates, a standard internet request is made to the Frankfurter service. This request does not include any personal information, account details, or calculation data — it only asks for the latest exchange rates. Like any internet service, the request is technically routed through the provider's infrastructure (Cloudflare), which may process your IP address to deliver the response.

Downloaded rates are stored only on your device so the converter keeps working offline. We do not transmit, collect, or store your conversions on any server.

Exchange rates are provided for general information only and may differ slightly from rates offered by banks or payment providers. They should not be relied upon for trading or financial decisions.

4. In-App Purchases

The App offers in-app purchases securely processed via the Google Play Store. We do not store or manage any payment information.
