Privacy Policy for hlsconverter.com
Last updated: July 13, 2025
1. Our Core Privacy Promise
The primary function of hlsconverter.com is to convert your video files. We have architected our service so that your video files are never uploaded to our servers. The entire conversion process happens locally on your own computer using your web browser's built-in capabilities. We cannot see, access, or store the content you convert.
2. Information We Collect
While we do not access your video files, we do collect a limited amount of non-personal information to operate and improve our service:
- Anonymous Conversion Count: We maintain a public counter of successful conversions. When your conversion completes, our service sends a request to our backend to increment this number. This request contains no personal data, no file information, and is not linked to your IP address or user session.
- Website Analytics: We use analytics tools, such as Google Tag Manager and Vercel Analytics, to understand how visitors interact with our website. This may include information like your browser type, pages visited, and general geographic location (e.g., country). This data is aggregated and anonymized and is used solely to improve the user experience. For more details, please see our Cookie Policy.
3. How We Use Your Information
The limited information we collect is used for the following purposes:
- To operate and maintain the service.
- To display public usage statistics as a feature of the site.
- To monitor and analyze usage and trends to improve the website.
- To ensure the security of our service.
4. Data Storage and Security
The anonymous conversion count is stored securely using Cloudflare KV. All other analytics data is managed by our third-party providers (Google, Vercel) under their respective privacy policies.
5. Your Rights
Because we do not collect personal information through the core function of our service, your rights regarding data access, correction, and deletion are primarily related to the analytics cookies. Please see our Cookie Policy for information on how to manage these.
