Cookie Policy
Our approach to cookies is simple: We use the bare minimum needed to make our tools work properly.
This Cookie Policy explains how Number to Words Converter ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. We keep things simple and transparent because we believe you should know exactly what's happening when you use our tools.

The Good News First
We use far fewer cookies than most websites. Here's what you won't find on our site:
- No tracking cookies that follow you around the internet
- No advertising cookies from Google, Facebook, or other ad networks
- No analytics cookies that build detailed profiles about you
- No social media cookies that share your activity with platforms
We built our tools to be useful, not invasive. The cookies we do use are there to make the website work properly, not to track you.
What Are Cookies (In Simple Terms)
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit them. Think of them like little notes a website leaves for itself so it can remember things about your visit.
Some cookies are essential (the website won't work without them), while others are optional (they make things more convenient). We only use the essential ones plus a few that make your experience better.
It's worth noting that cookies can't do things like install viruses, access other files on your computer, or steal personal information. They're just simple text files that websites use to remember things.
The Cookies We Actually Use
Here are the cookies you might encounter on our website, broken down by what they do:
Essential Cookies
Purpose: These cookies make our website work. Without them, basic functions wouldn't operate correctly.
What they do: Remember your settings between page visits, keep you logged in (if we had login functionality), and maintain your session.
Duration: Usually session-length (deleted when you close your browser) or short-term.
Preference Cookies
Purpose: Remember your choices to make the website work better for you.
What they do: Remember your preferred currency setting, letter case preference, or other tool settings between visits.
Duration: Usually 30-90 days, so you don't have to reset your preferences every time.
That's really it. We don't use performance cookies, marketing cookies, or any of the other cookie categories that many websites rely on for tracking and advertising.
What We Don't Track (And Why This Matters)
Many websites use cookies to build detailed profiles about their visitors. We don't. Here's what we specifically don't track:
- Your browsing history on other websites
- The specific numbers you convert (these are processed locally on your device)
- Your location beyond country-level for basic analytics
- Your personal information like name, email, or address
- Your device information beyond basic browser type and version
We believe this approach respects your privacy while still allowing us to provide useful tools. You can convert sensitive financial information (like cheque amounts or invoice values) without worrying that we're tracking what you're doing.
Third-Party Cookies (The Ones We Don't Control)
While we don't intentionally include third-party cookies, some might appear through services we use to run the website:
- Hosting provider: Our web hosting company might use basic cookies for security and performance
- Cloud services: If we use any cloud services, they might set their own cookies
- Embedded content: We don't currently embed content from other sites, but if we did, they might set cookies
If we ever decide to use services that involve third-party cookies, we'll update this policy first and give you clear information about what those cookies do.
Importantly, we don't use services like Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or advertising networks that are known for extensive tracking.
How to Manage Cookies
You have control over cookies. Here are your options:
Browser Settings
Every browser lets you manage cookies. Here's how to access cookie settings in popular browsers:
| Browser | How to Access Cookie Settings |
|---|---|
| Google Chrome | Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data |
| Mozilla Firefox | Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data |
| Safari | Preferences → Privacy → Cookies and website data |
| Microsoft Edge | Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data |
What Happens If You Disable Cookies
If you choose to disable cookies:
- Our tools will still work for basic conversions
- You might need to re-enter your preferences each time you visit
- Some convenience features might not work as expected
- The website should still function for its main purpose: converting numbers to words
Since we don't use tracking cookies, disabling cookies won't affect your privacy much on our site - you're already not being tracked!

Our Philosophy on Cookies
We built Number to Words Converter to solve a simple problem: converting numbers to words accurately. Along the way, we realized that many websites have become overly complicated with tracking and data collection.
Our approach is different: Use the minimum technology needed to provide a useful service. Cookies can be helpful for remembering preferences and making websites work better, but they shouldn't be used to build detailed profiles about people.
We believe this approach is better for everyone. You get privacy-focused tools that work well, and we get to provide useful services without compromising our values.
Thank you for using our tools. We appreciate that you've chosen a service that respects your privacy.
