Last updated: August 23, 2026
Welcome to Unit Convertix. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines how our application collects, uses, and safeguards information when you use our mobile and web application.

1. Information We Collect
A. Personal Information
Unit Convertix does NOT collect, store, transmit, or share any personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, physical address, phone number, biometric data, or precise geolocation.
B. Locally Stored Data (On-Device Only)
To enhance your user experience, the application stores certain non-personal configuration data locally on your device:
- Conversion History & Favorites: Your pinned units and recent calculations.
- App Preferences: Theme preferences (Dark/Light mode), selected decimal precision, and default unit configurations.
- Cached Currency Exchange Rates: Temporarily cached exchange rates to enable offline functionality.
> Note: All this data resides strictly on your local device storage and is never uploaded to any external or remote server.
C. Network & API Requests
- Live Currency Rates: When fetching live currency exchange rates, the application makes standard HTTPS requests to public currency exchange rate APIs. These requests do not contain any personal information, user identifiers, or device tracking IDs.
---
2. Permissions Used
The application requires minimal device permissions to operate:
-Internet Access (`android.permission.INTERNET`): Used solely to query live foreign exchange (Forex) currency rates.
- Local Storage (`SharedPreferences`): Used strictly to save user settings and favorite conversions locally on the device.
We do not request access to your contacts, camera, microphone, photos, storage files, or device location.
---
3. Third-Party Services & Links
- The application may fetch rate updates from reputable open-source or public exchange rate data providers. These third-party endpoints only process the incoming HTTP request (standard IP address routing) and do not receive any user account or personal data from us.
- Unit Convertix does not integrate third-party analytics trackers, behavioral profiling, or advertising SDKs.
---
4. Children’s Privacy
Unit Convertix is a general-purpose utility tool suitable for all ages. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13 (or under the applicable age limit in your jurisdiction), in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and Google Play Families Policy.
---
5. Data Retention & Deletion
Since all user preferences and history are stored locally on your device:
- You can clear your data at any time by navigating to your device's Settings > Apps > Unit Convertix > Storage > Clear Data.
- Uninstalling the application will permanently remove all locally cached preferences and history from your device.
---
6. Security
The security of your device is important to us. Because we do not transmit or store personal data on remote servers, your risk of server-side data breaches through our app is non-existent. Network communications for currency rates are conducted over secure HTTPS protocols.
---
7. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
