Localvert

Privacy policy

Localvert is built so that there is very little to write a privacy policy about. Your files are converted inside your own browser and are never uploaded to us. We have no server that could receive them, and no account system.

Your files

Files you drop into Localvert are read directly by your browser and processed in memory on your device. They are never transmitted to us or to anyone else. You can verify this yourself: open your browser's developer tools, switch to the Network tab, and convert a file — you will see no upload request.

What is stored on your device

We store two things in your browser's local storage: the interface language you picked, and a licence key if you activate one. Both stay on your device and are never sent to us. Clearing your browser data removes them.

Advertising

This site shows ads through Google AdSense. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalised advertising in Google's Ads Settings, or manage cookies through your browser. Ads are not shown to users with an active premium licence.

Analytics

We do not run any analytics, tracking pixels or fingerprinting scripts. We do not build a profile of you and we have no database in which to keep one.

Licence validation

If you enter a premium licence key, that key alone is sent to Lemon Squeezy, our payment provider, to confirm it is valid. This happens only when you enter or re-check a key, and no file data is involved.

Third-party resources

For video conversion the browser downloads the open-source ffmpeg engine from the jsDelivr CDN. This transfers program code to you; it never transfers your files anywhere. Text recognition (Image to Text) downloads the open-source Tesseract engine and the language data you choose from the same CDN, and stores them in your browser for next time. Speech to text downloads the Whisper speech model from Hugging Face the first time you use it; your recordings are never sent. Background removal downloads its AI model from Hugging Face in the same way.

Hosting

The site is served by Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes your IP address and basic request details (such as which page was requested) to deliver pages and protect the site from abuse. We do not use those logs to track or profile visitors.

Changes

If this policy changes we will update the date shown below. Because we hold no contact details for you, we cannot notify you individually.

Browser extension

The Localvert browser extension converts images you right-click on, inside your own browser. It collects no personal data, has no analytics, and sends nothing to us. It reads an image only when you choose to save it, and only to convert that image.
