Privacy Policy
In short: our color converters run in your browser, and the colors you type in are not sent to us. We collect only limited technical information, plus anything you choose to send us, such as a message through our contact page. We do not sell your personal information.
1. Who we are
This website, CMYK2Pantone (cmyk2pantone.com), provides free online color conversion tools and color reference resources. In this policy, “we”, “us” and “our” mean CMYK2Pantone. CMYK2Pantone is an independent website and is not affiliated with Pantone LLC.
This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it and what choices you have. By using the website, you agree to this policy.
2. Information we collect
Information you give us
If you contact us by email or through a contact form, we receive your name, email address and the contents of your message. If we enable comments or a newsletter in the future, we will collect the details you submit there.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our servers and tools may record technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, pages visited, referring page, and the date and time of your visit. We use this to keep the site secure and working properly.
3. Our color tools
The values you type into our converters, such as CMYK, RGB, HEX or Pantone references, are processed in your browser. They are not sent to our server or stored by the converters. We do not ask you to create an account to use them.
4. Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We and our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to:
- keep the website working and secure,
- remember basic preferences,
- understand how visitors use the website, and
- show advertising, if we display ads.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some parts of the site may not work as well if you do. Where the law requires it, we ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies.
5. Analytics
We may use analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to learn how people find and use the website, for example which pages are visited and for how long. These services may collect your IP address, device information and cookie identifiers. We use the results in aggregate to improve the website. You can learn more in How Google uses information from sites that use its services, and you can opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
6. Advertising
We may show ads on this website now or in the future, including ads served by Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and other sites on the internet.
You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info. Ads may be shown that are not personalized, depending on your choices and where you live.
We do not control the cookies set by advertisers, and we do not give them your name or email address.
7. How we use information
- To operate, maintain and secure the website and tools.
- To reply to your messages and requests.
- To understand usage and improve our tools and content.
- To show and measure advertising, if we display ads.
- To meet legal obligations and protect our rights.
Where privacy laws require a legal basis, we rely on our legitimate interest in running and improving the website, on your consent (for example, for non-essential cookies) and on the need to respond to your requests.
8. Sharing your information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited information with:
- Service providers that help us run the website, such as hosting, security, analytics and email providers, who may only use it to provide their services to us.
- Advertising partners, such as Google, through cookies and similar technologies, as described above.
- Authorities or other parties when the law requires it, or to protect our rights, users or the website.
Some of these providers may be located outside your country. Where required, we use safeguards that the law allows for international transfers.
9. Retention and security
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes in this policy, or as the law requires. Messages you send us are kept for as long as needed to deal with your request. We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information, but no website or internet transmission is completely secure.
10. Your rights
Depending on where you live, such as the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, India, California and other regions, you may have the right to:
- ask what personal information we hold about you and request a copy,
- ask us to correct or delete it,
- object to or ask us to limit certain uses of it,
- withdraw consent you gave us, at any time, and
- complain to your local data protection authority.

11. Children’s privacy
This website is not directed at children under 13, or under the minimum age set by the law where you live. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
