Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters. Converter text is processed locally in your browser, with transparent disclosures on advertising partners.

Overview

Katakana Converter is designed with privacy as a core principle. All transliteration tools run directly in your web browser using client-side JavaScript, meaning text typed into the converters is processed locally and never sent to our servers. We do not operate user accounts, databases, or collect personal information directly. To sustain our free tools, this site uses Google AdSense to display third-party advertisements, which utilizes cookies and related technologies to serve and personalize ads as explained below.

Data Collection & Converter Tools

Katakana Converter does not operate accounts, maintain user databases, or collect personal information. Specifically for our conversion tools, we do not collect or store:

  • Text typed into any of our converter tools
  • Conversion results, phonetic breakdowns, or transliteration outputs
  • Personal names or documents you convert

All converter text processing executes entirely in your browser memory and never leaves your device.

How the Converter Works

All text processing happens locally in your browser. When you type English text, Romaji, Kanji, or Hiragana and use our conversion tools, the conversion is performed entirely by JavaScript running on your device. Your text is never transmitted over the internet or sent to any server.

Advertising

This site uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and its third-party advertising partners use cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve personalized ads based on visits to this and other websites across the internet.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to this site and other sites on the internet. Users can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting https://www.google.com/settings/ads (or via aboutads.info).

Cookies

Katakana Converter does not directly set first-party tracking cookies or store personal user profiles. However, third-party advertising partners, including Google AdSense, set and read cookies on your browser to deliver, personalize, and measure advertisements. You can configure or disable cookies at any time through your web browser preferences.

Third-Party Services

We work with trusted third-party providers to serve fonts and advertisements:

  • Google AdSense — Used to display programmatic advertisements. Google and its partners collect standard HTTP request data and use cookies to serve and personalize ads. For more information, please see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services and Google's Privacy Policy.
  • Google Fonts — We load web fonts (such as Inter and Noto Sans JP) from Google Fonts to display Japanese and Latin typography cleanly. Google may collect standard server request data (such as IP address and browser type) to deliver font files.
