Introduction
Welcome to CurrencyX. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy will inform you about how we look after your personal data when you visit our website and tell you about your privacy rights.
Information We Collect
CurrencyX is designed with privacy in mind. We collect minimal information:
- Local Storage Data: Your customization preferences (theme, colors, favorites) are stored locally in your browser and never sent to our servers.
- API Usage: When you use the currency converter, requests are made to OpenExchangeRates API to fetch current exchange rates. This data is cached locally for performance.
- No Personal Information: We do not collect, store, or process any personally identifiable information.
How We Use Your Information
The limited data we collect is used solely to:
- Provide you with accurate currency conversion rates
- Save your customization preferences for future visits
- Improve the performance and user experience of our service
Cookies and Tracking
CurrencyX does not use cookies for tracking purposes. We only use browser's local storage to save your preferences locally on your device. You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings or by using the "Reset to Defaults" option in our settings panel.
Third-Party Services
We use OpenExchangeRates API to provide currency exchange rate data. Please review their privacy policy to understand how they handle data. We do not control and are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services.
Data Security
Since we don't collect personal information, there's minimal risk to your privacy. All preference data is stored locally on your device and never transmitted to our servers. We use HTTPS to ensure secure communication between your browser and external APIs.

You have the right to:
- Clear all locally stored data at any time
