Frequently Asked Questions

General questions about the site. Looking for something tool-specific? Each tool page (Clock, Calculator, Converter) has its own FAQ too.

Are these tools free to use?

Yes, completely free, with no usage limits, no premium tier, and no account required.

Do I need to sign up or create an account?

No. Every tool works immediately with no login, no email address, and no registration of any kind.

What data do you collect?

The site does not currently run analytics or tracking scripts, and nothing you type into any tool is collected or stored. See the Privacy Policy for full details.

Do calculations happen locally, in my browser?

Yes, for the clock, calculator, and unit converter. Only the currency converter makes a network request, to fetch live exchange rates.

Can I use these tools on my phone or tablet?

Yes. Every page is fully responsive and works the same way on a phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop monitor.

Why is the website so lightweight?

It's built with plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — no framework, no build step, minimal code — so it loads quickly even on a slow connection.

Will more tools be added?

Possibly, if they fit the same idea: genuinely useful, fast, and simple. Nothing is added just to pad the site out.

Is the website open to everyone?

Yes — it's free and publicly accessible to anyone, with no region restrictions or access requirements.
