Overview
At MP3 Converter, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your data when you use our online audio conversion service.
Key Privacy Principle
Our converter operates entirely in your browser using client-side technology. Your audio files never leave your device and are never uploaded to our servers or any third-party services.
This policy applies to all users of our MP3 converter service, regardless of how you access or use the service. By using our converter, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
Information We Do NOT Collect
Unlike many online services, our converter is designed with privacy-first principles. Here's what we explicitly do NOT collect:
Audio Files and Content
- We do not upload, store, or process your audio files on our servers
- We do not analyze the content of your audio files
- We do not retain copies of your original or converted files
- We do not have access to file names, metadata, or audio content
Personal Information
- We do not require user registration or account creation
- We do not collect names, email addresses, or contact information
- We do not track individual user behavior or create user profiles
- We do not use cookies for tracking or identification purposes
Conversion Activity
- We do not log which files you convert or how often you use the service

- We do not monitor conversion success or failure rates per user
- We do not store any history of your conversion activities
Technical Information We May Collect
To ensure our service functions properly and to improve user experience, we may collect limited technical information that cannot be used to identify you personally:
Anonymous Usage Statistics
- General website traffic and page views (without identifying individual users)
- Browser type and version (for compatibility purposes)
- Operating system information (to optimize performance)
- General geographic region (country level only, for localization)
Error Reporting
- Anonymous error logs to help us fix technical issues
- Performance metrics to optimize the conversion process
- Browser compatibility information to ensure broad support
All technical information is collected in an anonymous, aggregated manner that cannot be linked to individual users or specific conversion activities.
How Our Technology Protects Your Privacy
Our converter uses advanced client-side technology to ensure maximum privacy protection:
WebAssembly Processing
We use FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly (WASM) to perform all audio conversion directly in your browser. This means:
- All processing happens on your device, not on our servers
- Your files remain under your complete control at all times
- No network transmission of your audio content occurs
- Conversion works even when offline (after initial library load)
Local Storage Only
Any temporary files created during conversion are stored only in your browser's memory and are automatically cleared when:
- You close the browser tab or window
- You navigate away from our website
- The conversion process completes
- Your browser's memory management clears temporary data
No Server-Side Processing
Unlike traditional online converters that upload your files to remote servers, our service:
- Requires no file uploads or downloads during conversion
- Eliminates the risk of data interception during transmission
- Prevents unauthorized access to your files by third parties
- Ensures your files never exist on any server we control
Third-Party Services
Our website may use certain third-party services for functionality and improvement purposes:
Content Delivery Networks (CDN)
We use CDNs to deliver the FFmpeg WebAssembly library and other static resources. These services:
- Only deliver code libraries, not your personal content
- May log basic access information (IP address, request time)
- Are necessary for the converter to function properly
- Do not have access to your audio files or conversion activities
Analytics Services
We may use privacy-focused analytics services to understand general usage patterns:
- Data is collected anonymously without personal identification
- No tracking across other websites or services
- Used only to improve service performance and user experience
- You can opt out using browser settings or privacy extensions
Font and Icon Services
We use external services for fonts and icons (such as Font Awesome and Google Fonts):
- These services may log basic request information
- No personal or conversion data is shared with these services
- Used only for visual presentation of our website
Data Security
We implement multiple layers of security to protect any information that may be collected:
Website Security
- HTTPS encryption for all website communications
- Regular security updates and monitoring
- Secure hosting infrastructure with industry-standard protections
- No storage of sensitive user data that could be compromised
Code Integrity
- Use of verified, open-source FFmpeg libraries
- Regular security audits of our codebase
- Protection against malicious code injection
- Transparent operation with no hidden functionality
Your Rights and Choices
You have complete control over your privacy when using our service:
File Control
- You retain full ownership and control of all your audio files
- You can stop any conversion process at any time
- You can clear browser data to remove any temporary files
- You can use the service without providing any personal information
Browser Settings
- You can disable JavaScript to prevent the converter from running
- You can use private/incognito browsing mode for additional privacy
- You can clear browser cache and storage after use
- You can use ad blockers or privacy extensions without affecting functionality
Data Requests
Since we don't collect personal data or store your files, there is no personal data to access, modify, or delete. However, if you have questions about our privacy practices, you can contact us using the information provided below.
Children's Privacy
Our service does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. Since our converter operates entirely client-side and doesn't collect personal information from any users, it is safe for users of all ages. However, we recommend that children use the service under parental supervision.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us immediately so we can address your concerns.
International Users
Our service is available to users worldwide. Since all processing happens locally in your browser, your data never crosses international borders through our service. However, please note:
- Our website is hosted in data centers that may be located in different countries
- Third-party services (CDNs, analytics) may operate internationally
- No personal data or audio files are transmitted internationally
- Local privacy laws in your jurisdiction continue to apply
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal and regulatory reasons. When we make changes:
- We will update the "Last Updated" date at the bottom of this policy
- Significant changes will be highlighted on our main page
- Continued use of the service constitutes acceptance of the updated policy
- We will never change our core principle of client-side processing
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your privacy.

Commitment to Privacy
Privacy is not just a policy for us—it's a fundamental design principle. Our entire service is built around the concept of keeping your data under your control. We believe that audio conversion should be private, secure, and convenient, which is why we've invested in client-side technology that eliminates the need for file uploads.
