Privacy Policy for ConvertToTune
Effective Date: May 1, 2025
Who We Are
This website, located at https://ConvertToTune.com, is owned and operated by ConvertToTune (“we,” “our,” or “us”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect personal information when you interact with our services. By accessing or using our website, you agree to the practices outlined in this policy.
Information We Collect and Why
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data entered in the comment form, along with the IP address and browser user agent to help detect spam. An anonymized string (hash) of your email may be shared with Gravatar to check if you use their service. After your comment is approved, your Gravatar profile picture will be visible next to your comment. Read more about Gravatar’s privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
Media Uploads
If you upload images to ConvertToTune.com, please ensure that location metadata (such as EXIF GPS) is removed. Uploaded images may be downloadable by other users, who could extract location data from them.
Contact Forms
Details submitted through contact forms are used solely to respond to your inquiries. They are treated in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience and will last for one year. When logging in, we set temporary cookies to determine if your browser accepts them—these are discarded when you close your browser. Login and display preference cookies last between two days and a year, depending on your selections. If you choose “Remember Me,” your login remains active for two weeks. Logging out will remove login cookies.
If you edit or publish content, a temporary cookie will store the post ID of the article you edited. This cookie expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Sites
Some posts on ConvertToTune.com may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles) from third-party platforms. These embedded items behave the same as if you had visited the third-party site directly. These sites may collect your data, use cookies, and track your interaction with the embedded content.
Analytics
We may collect analytical data about how visitors use the site to understand user behavior better and improve our services.
Data Storage and Retention
We retain comment data and its metadata indefinitely to streamline the approval of future comments. For registered users, any personal information associated with their profile can be accessed, edited, or deleted at any time—except for the username, which is fixed. Administrators may also access and manage user information as needed.
Your Rights
If you have an account or have left comments on our site, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that we erase your data, excluding information we are required to keep for legal, security, or administrative purposes.
Data Sharing
We do not sell or share personal information with third parties, except as described in this policy or when required by law. Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Security
We take reasonable precautions to protect your information. However, no method of data transmission or electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee its absolute safety.
Third-Party Links
ConvertToTune.com may include links to other websites not operated by us. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those sites. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies independently.
Children’s Privacy
Our site and services are intended for individuals aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 18. If we learn that a minor has provided us with personal information, we will promptly delete it.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices or services. All updates will be posted on this page with the revised effective date. Please check back periodically for updates.
