Privacy Policy for 5iTech.in
**Last Updated:** June 22, 2025
Your privacy is of utmost importance to us at 5iTech.in. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our website and services. By accessing or using 5iTech.in, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
1. Information We Do NOT Collect or Store
Our core principle is to provide you with secure and privacy-focused tools. Therefore, we explicitly state:
- No Personal Files Stored: When you use our converters (e.g., Excel to PDF, Image converters), your uploaded files are processed transiently and are **immediately deleted from our servers** after the conversion is complete or after a very short, specified period (e.g., a few hours). We do not retain copies of your original or converted files.
- No Personally Identifiable Information (PII) for Tool Usage: We do not require you to create an account or provide any personally identifiable information (like your name, email address, or contact details) to use the majority of our free tools and converters.
- No API Keys or Credentials: You will never be asked to provide any personal API keys or credentials for our services.
2. Information We May Collect (Non-Personal)
While we do not store your files or directly collect PII for tool usage, we may collect certain non-personal information to improve our services and website experience:
- Usage Data: We may collect general, anonymized data about how you interact with our website and tools (e.g., which tools are used, how often, approximate session duration). This data is aggregated and used solely for analytical purposes to understand user trends and enhance our service offerings.
- Technical Data: We may collect non-identifying technical information such as your browser type, operating system, IP address (anonymized), referral source, and access times. This helps us optimize our website’s performance and troubleshoot technical issues.
3. How We Use Collected Information
The non-personal information we collect is used exclusively for the following purposes:
- To operate, maintain, and improve the functionality and performance of our website and tools.
- To analyze usage patterns and understand user preferences to enhance user experience.
- To monitor for and prevent technical issues or fraudulent activity.
- To comply with legal obligations, if any.
4. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your non-personal information to outside parties. We may share anonymized, aggregated usage data with third-party analytics providers (e.g., Google Analytics) to help us understand our website traffic and user behavior, but this data cannot be used to identify you personally.
We may disclose information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (i) comply with a legal obligation, (ii) protect and defend the rights or property of 5iTech.in, (iii) prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Service, or (iv) protect the personal safety of users of the Service or the public.
5. Third-Party Links and Advertising
Our website may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not operated by us. We also use advertising services like Google AdSense to monetize our free tools. These third-party sites and services have their own privacy policies. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.
6. Security of Your Data
We are committed to protecting the security of your data. While no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, we implement industry-standard security measures, including SSL encryption for data in transit, to protect the non-personal data we collect and to ensure the secure, transient processing of your files. Our commitment to not storing your files is our primary security measure for your content.
7. Children’s Privacy
Our Service is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you learn that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under the age of 13 without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.
8. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the “Last Updated” date at the top. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
