Unit Converter — Privacy Policy & Terms of Use
Effective date: April 10, 2026 | Last updated: April 10, 2026
This document contains both the Privacy Policy and the Terms of Use for Unit Converter. Please read both sections carefully before using the App.
Part I — Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Unit Converter ("the App"), developed and published by Approve The Move ("we", "us", or "our"), handles information when you ("you" or "the user") download, install, or use the App on any supported device.
We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy applies to all versions of Unit Converter distributed through the Apple App Store and any future platforms.
By downloading, installing, or using Unit Converter, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the App and remove it from your device.
2. Information We Collect
We do not collect, transmit, or process any personal data. Unit Converter is designed from the ground up as a privacy-first, fully offline application. Specifically:
- No account creation — You are never required or asked to sign up, log in, create an account, or provide an email address, phone number, or any other personal identifier.
- No analytics or tracking — We do not use any analytics frameworks, crash reporting services, telemetry tools, device fingerprinting, or usage tracking of any kind.
- No advertising — The App contains no advertisements, no advertising SDKs, no ad identifiers (IDFA), and no advertising networks.
- No networking — The App does not connect to the internet, does not make HTTP requests, does not use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth for communication, and does not transmit any data to any external server, cloud service, or remote endpoint.
- No in-app purchases — No financial, billing, or payment information is collected or processed.
- No location data — The App does not request, access, or store your geographic location.
- No contacts or photos — The App does not access your contacts, photo library, camera, microphone, or any other device sensor beyond haptic feedback.
3. On-Device Storage
Unit Converter stores a small amount of non-personal preference data locally on your device using Apple's UserDefaults system. This data is stored within the App's private sandbox, is not accessible to other apps, and never leaves your device.
Data stored locally includes:
- Theme preference (System, Light, or Dark)
- Accent color selection
- Haptic feedback toggle (on or off)
All unit conversions are calculated in real time using Apple's built-in Measurement and Dimension APIs. No conversion history, input values, or results are ever saved, logged, or persisted.
This data is declared in our Privacy Manifest (PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy) under API category NSPrivacyAccessedAPICategoryUserDefaults with reason code CA92.1 (access to store and retrieve user preferences), as required by Apple.
How to delete: You can erase all locally stored preferences at any time by deleting Unit Converter from your device. No residual data is retained after uninstallation.
4. Third-Party Services & SDKs
Unit Converter does not integrate, embed, or communicate with any third-party services, SDKs, APIs, or frameworks that collect, process, or transmit user data. The App uses exclusively Apple-provided first-party system frameworks:
| Framework | Purpose | Data Collection |
|---|---|---|
| SwiftUI | User interface rendering | None |
| Foundation | Measurement & Dimension APIs for unit conversion | None |
| StoreKit | In-app review prompt (Rate App) | None |
We do not use Firebase, Google Analytics, Facebook SDK, Unity, AdMob, Crashlytics, Sentry, Amplitude, Mixpanel, or any other third-party data collection tool.
5. Apple's Data Practices
While Unit Converter itself does not collect data, please be aware that Apple may independently collect certain information related to your use of the App Store, such as download statistics and crash logs. This data collection is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy, not ours, and is outside our control.
We have declared in App Store Connect that Unit Converter collects no data linked to or tracking the user, as reflected on the App's App Store product page under "App Privacy."
6. Children's Privacy
Unit Converter is rated 4+ by Apple and is designed to be suitable for users of all ages. The App does not contain violence, gambling, horror, mature themes, profanity, or any other objectionable material.
Because we do not collect any personal information from any user of any age, we are compliant with the following regulations regarding children's privacy:
- COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, United States) — We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. Since the App collects no personal information from anyone, no COPPA violation can occur.
- GDPR-K / Age of Digital Consent (European Economic Area) — We do not process personal data of minors under 16 (or the lower age set by individual EEA member states). Since no personal data is processed, no parental consent is required.
- Apple's Guidelines for Apps Used by Children — The App contains no data collection, no third-party analytics, no advertising, and no external links within the core conversion experience.
Parents, guardians, and educators can allow children to use Unit Converter with full confidence that no personal information is collected, stored, or shared.
7. Your Rights Under Applicable Laws
We respect and support the privacy rights granted to individuals under applicable data protection legislation worldwide.
7.1 European Economic Area (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and equivalent local laws grant you the following rights regarding personal data:
- Right of access (Article 15) — Request a copy of personal data held about you.
- Right to rectification (Article 16) — Request correction of inaccurate personal data.
- Right to erasure (Article 17) — Request deletion of your personal data.
- Right to restrict processing (Article 18) — Request that we limit how we use your data.
- Right to data portability (Article 20) — Receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
- Right to object (Article 21) — Object to processing based on legitimate interests.
- Right to withdraw consent (Article 7) — Withdraw previously given consent at any time.
Since we do not collect, store, or process any personal data, there is no data for us to provide, correct, restrict, delete, port, or cease processing. Your local preferences can be erased by deleting the App. If you believe we hold data about you in error, please contact us and we will investigate promptly.
Legal basis for processing: We do not process personal data. The on-device preference storage operates under legitimate interest (providing a functional user experience) and does not constitute data processing under GDPR as the data never leaves the device or reaches us.
Data controller: Approve The Move (contact details in Section 24).
7.2 California (CCPA / CPRA)
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) grants you specific rights regarding personal information:
- Right to know — You may request disclosure of the categories and specific pieces of personal information collected.
- Right to delete — You may request deletion of personal information collected.
- Right to correct — You may request correction of inaccurate personal information.
- Right to opt out of sale or sharing — You may direct us not to sell or share your personal information.
- Right to non-discrimination — You will not be discriminated against for exercising your privacy rights.
We do not collect, sell, or share personal information. We have not sold or shared personal information of any consumer in the preceding 12 months, nor do we intend to do so.
California's "Do Not Track" signals and Global Privacy Control (GPC) are respected by default, as the App does not track users in any capacity.
7.3 Other Jurisdictions
Regardless of your location, the same principle applies: we do not collect personal data, so there is no data to exercise rights over. If your local laws grant you additional privacy rights, please contact us and we will cooperate fully.
8. Data Security
Although we do not collect or store personal data on any server, we employ the following security measures to protect your experience within the App:
- Sandboxed storage — On-device preferences are stored within the App's iOS sandbox, which is isolated from other apps and protected by the operating system.
- No network exposure — The App makes no internet connections whatsoever, eliminating the risk of remote data breaches, man-in-the-middle attacks, or unauthorized server access.
- No persistent sensitive data — No passwords, tokens, credentials, or financial data are ever stored or processed.
9. Data Retention
We do not operate servers, databases, or cloud storage of any kind. We do not retain any user data. All data associated with Unit Converter exists exclusively on your personal device:
| Data Type | Storage Location | Retention Period |
|---|---|---|
| User preferences (theme, accent color, haptics) | Device (UserDefaults) | Until App is deleted |
When you delete the App, all associated data is permanently removed from your device by the operating system.
10. International Considerations
Unit Converter is available worldwide through the Apple App Store. Since the App does not collect or transmit any data to external servers, there are no international data transfers to disclose. All data remains on your local device at all times, regardless of your geographic location.
Part II — Terms of Use

- Exploit the App or any part of it for commercial purposes without our prior written consent.
14. Accuracy of Conversions
Unit Converter uses Apple's built-in Foundation Measurement and Dimension APIs to perform unit conversions. While these APIs are designed to produce accurate results, we do not warrant the absolute accuracy of any conversion result.
You acknowledge and agree that:
- Conversion results are provided for general informational and educational purposes only.
- You should not rely on this App for safety-critical, medical, engineering, scientific, or legal calculations where precision is essential.

All rights, title, and interest in and to Unit Converter — including but not limited to the software code, visual design, user interface elements, graphics, and documentation — are and shall remain the exclusive property of Approve The Move.
The name "Unit Converter", the Approve The Move name and logo, and all associated branding are trademarks of Approve The Move. Nothing in these terms grants you any right to use our trademarks without prior written permission.
16. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim all warranties, including but not limited to:

You acknowledge that the App is a utility provided for convenience and that your use of the App is at your sole risk.
17. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL YOUSIF AMEEN, APPROVE THE MOVE, OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY:

- Damages arising from your use of or inability to use the App;
- Damages arising from reliance on any conversion result provided by the App;
- Any other damages arising out of or in connection with these terms or the App;
regardless of the theory of liability (contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or otherwise), even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
In jurisdictions that do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for certain damages, our liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law. In no event shall our total aggregate liability exceed the amount you paid for the App (which is zero, as the App is free).
18. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Approve The Move, and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and suppliers from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to:
- Your use of or access to the App;
- Your violation of these Terms of Use;
- Your violation of any applicable law or the rights of any third party.
19. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
These terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Qatar, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these terms or the App shall be resolved as follows:
- Informal resolution — You agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute informally by contacting us at support@approvethemove.com. We will attempt to resolve the dispute within 30 days.
- Binding arbitration — If informal resolution fails, any remaining dispute shall be resolved through binding arbitration administered in Doha, Qatar, in accordance with the rules of the Qatar International Court and Dispute Resolution Centre (QICDRC), unless otherwise required by your local laws.
Nothing in this section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement of intellectual property rights.
For EU/EEA residents: Nothing in these terms limits your right to bring proceedings before the courts of your country of residence, as required by Regulation (EU) No 1215/2012.
For US residents: You and we each waive the right to a jury trial and the right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration.
20. Termination
These terms are effective until terminated. Your rights under these terms will terminate automatically and without notice if you fail to comply with any provision.
Upon termination, you must cease all use of the App and delete all copies from your devices. Sections 15 through 19 shall survive any termination of these terms.
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the App (or any part thereof) at any time without notice or liability.
21. Severability
If any provision of these terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions, which shall continue in full force and effect.
22. Entire Agreement
These terms, together with the Privacy Policy above and Apple's Licensed Application EULA, constitute the entire agreement between you and Approve The Move regarding your use of Unit Converter.
