Privacy Policy
Last Updated: · Version 2.0
1. Who We Are
ConvertToAirFryer.com ("we," "us," "our") is operated by DigiCatalyst Systems, located in Ontario, Canada. We are the data controller for personal information collected through this website. For privacy questions, contact our Privacy Officer at support@converttoairfryer.com .
2. Information We Collect
We collect limited information to operate, secure, and improve the Site:
- Server log data: IP address, browser type, device type, ISP, referring/exit pages, date/time, click data. Collected automatically by our hosting provider. Retained up to 90 days for security and troubleshooting.
- Cookies and similar technologies: see Section 4.
- Advertising data: collected by Google and other ad partners via cookies and identifiers (see Section 5).
- Affiliate link clicks: we collect nothing when you follow a link marked "Ad". The affiliate program or seller records the click on its own site (see Section 6). The reports we receive show clicks, orders and commissions by link, without your name or contact details.
- Communications: if you email us, we retain the email and your address only as long as needed to respond.
We do not retain Sensitive Personal Information (as defined by the CPRA). Our advertising partners and the affiliate programs in Section 6 are independent controllers for any data they collect through their own cookies and identifiers. The Site is not directed to children (see Section 12).
3. Lawful Bases (EEA/UK Visitors)
We process personal data under the following GDPR Article 6 bases:
- Consent: for non-essential cookies, personalized advertising, and similar technologies.
- Legitimate interests: for site security, fraud prevention, aggregate analytics, and placing affiliate links (see Section 6).
- Legal obligation: where we must retain data to comply with applicable law.
5. Google AdSense and Third-Party Advertising
Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies and identifiers to serve ads on this Site based on your visits here and elsewhere on the Internet. Google's and its partners' use of advertising technologies is described at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites .
- Opt out of personalized Google advertising: adssettings.google.com
- Opt out of other participating vendors (US): optout.aboutads.info . (EU): youronlinechoices.eu
- For EEA/UK/Swiss visitors, personalized ads are served only with your consent. Non-personalized ads may still be shown if you decline.
6. Affiliate Links
Some pages about choosing an air fryer or its accessories link to sellers through affiliate programs. If you buy after following one of these links, the seller pays us a commission, at no extra cost to you. Each affiliate link has the word "Ad" in its text, and a short note before the first one on the page says what it means. Links without that label earn us nothing. The converter, the food conversion guides and the safety guide carry no affiliate links.
This site sets no cookie for these links and runs no script from any affiliate program: each one is a plain link, and nothing is sent anywhere until you click it. When you do, your browser leaves this site and goes to the program or the seller, which records the click so that a later purchase can be credited to us. Most do this with a cookie on their own domain. Those cookies are theirs, not ours, and their privacy notices apply. In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, a cookie on their site that is not strictly necessary is theirs to ask your consent for.
Links to Amazon carry only our Associates tag, the ID Amazon uses to credit a sale to us, with no reference to the page or the spot on it. A link through one of the other programs below would carry our account ID with that program and a short reference naming the page and the spot, such as nvc-comparator for the comparison table on the Ninja vs Cosori page, so its reports show which link earned. Neither the tag, the ID nor the reference says anything about you, and we add nothing else. The reports we see list clicks, orders and commissions by date, and by link or product. They do not include your name, email address or postal address, and we do not try to match them to anyone.
Legal basis in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland: to the extent we play any part in what a program records when you click, we rely on our legitimate interest in earning a commission on a purchase you choose to make (GDPR Article 6(1)(f)). In Canada, we collect no personal information through these links and give none to the programs: your browser contacts them only when you click.
The affiliate programs our links can go through
A link marked "Ad" goes through one of the five programs below and no other. Today every such link goes to Amazon. Sovrn Commerce, Impact, Awin and CJ are listed in advance because we may add links through them. Each item says what that program's own privacy notice says it collects, how long it keeps it, and how to opt out or use your rights. We read each notice on October 17, 2026.
- Amazon Associates. Links to Amazon carry our Associates tag in the address. If Amazon then sends you to its store for your country, that store's privacy notice applies. Amazon's Privacy Notice says it uses cookies and other identifiers to recognize your browser or device. Its state privacy disclosures say it keeps personal information for as long as needed for the purposes in that notice, and give no fixed period. To opt out of Amazon's cross-context behavioral ads, use Your Ads Privacy Choices on amazon.com or turn on Global Privacy Control in your browser, which Amazon says it treats as that opt-out. Amazon.com Privacy Notice, state privacy disclosures, Your Ads Privacy Choices.
- Sovrn Commerce (Sovrn, Inc.). A Sovrn Commerce link goes to Sovrn first, which tracks the click and any purchase to credit the sale, and it can pass through the seller's own affiliate program as well, which may be one not named here. Sovrn's privacy policy says it keeps personal information only as long as needed for the purposes it was collected for, with no fixed period. It also says Sovrn is a registered data broker that licenses pseudonymous data from its services, and that some of its sharing of device identifiers counts as a "sale" or "sharing" under California law. To stop Sovrn Commerce tracking, choose "Disable Tracking" in Sovrn's Privacy Center, which sets an opt-out cookie Sovrn honors on every site that uses Sovrn Commerce, or turn on Global Privacy Control, which Sovrn says it honors. The Privacy Center also takes access, correction and deletion requests. Sovrn's privacy policy, Sovrn's Privacy Center, Sovrn opt-out.
- Impact (Impact Tech, Inc.). Impact says it acts for the seller as a "service provider" or "data processor", that the visitor data it handles can include IP addresses and account or membership numbers without a key that identifies you, and that it does not rent or sell personal information. It says visitors' personal data is deleted or anonymized automatically after ninety days. To see, correct or delete your data, Impact asks you to contact the seller whose site you visited. You can also set your browser to refuse cookies or to warn you when one is sent. Impact's privacy policy.
- Awin (Awin Ltd and the Awin Group). Awin says it tracks a click from a publisher to a seller with cookies served from its own tracking domain, a tag on the seller's site, and device fingerprinting, which recognizes a device from attributes of its browser such as screen size, resolution and settings. It can link a journey that starts on one device and ends on another. Awin says it does not learn your name or identity: it keeps a pseudonymous record of the click, the country it came from and the device, plus the order value and product type when you buy, and relies on legitimate interests for this tracking. It keeps tracking data for up to three years, then deletes or anonymizes it, and may keep some in pseudonymous form for up to five years for its own analysis. Its US notice says it does not sell or share personal information as California and other state laws define those terms. Awin's notice names no opt-out tool for this tracking; to object to it or use your other rights, write to the privacy address in that notice. Awin says it may need your IP address or device ID to find your data. Awin's privacy policy (UK and EU), Awin's privacy policy (US).
- CJ (Commission Junction LLC). For the UK and the EU, CJ's notice names Epsilon International UK Ltd as the controller. CJ says it mainly uses cookies, pixels and tags to match a sale to the publisher that referred it, and that it processes only pseudonymous information, such as IP addresses, cookie IDs, referring website addresses, order IDs and browsing activity, which it does not link to your name, email address or phone number. Its US notice says it keeps that information for 6 years and then disassociates it from you; its UK and EU notice says up to six years. The UK and EU notice says CJ places its own cookies only with your consent, apart from certain essential cookies, and that you can withdraw consent with "Review Consent Preferences" in the footer of its website. The US notice says CJ does not "sell" personal information as the CCPA defines it, and gives an online form and the phone number 1 (833) 983-0087 for access and deletion requests. CJ's notice (United States), CJ's notice (UK and EU).
For readers in the United States: we pass nothing about you to these programs, so following a link marked "Ad" is not a sale or sharing of your personal information by us. What each program says about selling or sharing is in its item above. In short, Sovrn says some of its sharing counts as a sale or sharing under California law and honors Global Privacy Control, Amazon treats Global Privacy Control as an opt-out of its cross-context behavioral ads, Impact and Awin say they do not sell, and CJ says it does not sell as the CCPA defines it.
To ask about a click you made from this site, write to us at the address in Section 16 and we will pass your request to the program it went through. Each program also takes requests directly, as described above.
7. International Transfers
Our ad partners, including Google, process personal data in the United States and other jurisdictions. Cloudflare, which hosts the Site and runs its analytics, also processes data in the United States and other jurisdictions. Where EU/UK personal data is transferred outside the EEA/UK, we rely on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and, for US transfers, the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. Google's DPF certification covers AdSense data flows, and Cloudflare is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, its UK Extension and the Swiss-US Data Privacy Framework. When you follow an affiliate link, your browser sends data straight to the affiliate program, which may process it in the United States or elsewhere under its own notice (see Section 6); we transfer nothing to it. A copy of the safeguards is available on request.
8. Your Rights: European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland
You have the right to:
- Access your personal data and receive a copy.
- Rectify inaccurate personal data.
- Erase personal data ("right to be forgotten").
- Restrict processing in specified circumstances.
- Data portability: receive data in a structured, machine-readable format.
- Object to processing based on legitimate interests.
- Withdraw consent at any time (without affecting prior lawful processing).
- Object to automated decisions: you have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produces legal or similarly significant effects. AdSense personalization does not produce such effects. You can still turn it off at any time: in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, the Cookie Settings link in the footer reopens Google's consent message, where you can withdraw consent to personalized ads.
You may lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. For example, the UK ICO at ico.org.uk .
We respond to verifiable requests within 30 days; complex requests may be extended by up to 60 additional days with notice.
9. Your Rights: California (CCPA/CPRA)
California residents have the right to:
- Know the categories and specific pieces of personal information we collect, the sources, the business purposes, and third-party recipients.
- Delete personal information, subject to exceptions.
- Correct inaccurate personal information.
- Opt out of sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell personal information for money; however, our use of Google AdSense to serve personalized ads may qualify as "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising under the CPRA. You may opt out through the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link in the footer: in the US states covered by Google's consent tool, it opens Google's opt-out dialog (once you have opted out, it brings you here instead); everywhere else it brings you to this section. Google states that it honors the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal on its ad requests for users in the US states it lists; California is not on that list as of this policy's date, so use the footer link. The personal information handled for us (server logs, aggregate analytics and any emails you send us) is not sold or shared, so there is nothing of ours for a GPC signal to switch off.
- Limit use of Sensitive Personal Information: we do not retain SPI. Our advertising partners are independent controllers for any data they collect.
- Non-discrimination: we will not deny service, charge different prices, or provide a lesser experience for exercising your rights.
We acknowledge requests within 10 business days and respond within 45 calendar days (extendable by 60 days with notice). Submit requests to support@converttoairfryer.com .
Categories of personal information disclosed for a business purpose in the past 12 months: identifiers (IP address, device identifiers), internet/electronic activity (browsing on this Site), inference data (approximate location, interests). Disclosed to: Cloudflare (hosting, through Cloudflare Workers static assets), Google (AdSense advertising and its consent tool), and Cloudflare Web Analytics (aggregate page analytics that uses no cookies).
10. Canadian Visitors (PIPEDA / Quebec Law 25)
We process personal information in accordance with PIPEDA and, for Quebec residents, Law 25. Our designated Privacy Officer is Kaustubh Ghodke, reachable at support@converttoairfryer.com . You can ask to access, correct or delete your personal information, and you can withdraw your consent at any time using the controls described below. We respond to requests within 30 days. Withdrawing consent to personalized advertising means Google stops personalizing the ads it shows you; non-personalized ads may still appear. You also have the right to complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada at priv.gc.ca or, for Quebec residents, the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec.
Quebec Law 25 (section 8.1 of the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector): when this Site shows ads, Google's advertising technology on the page can profile you, which means inferring your interests from your browsing on this and other sites, to choose the ads you see. The technology is Google's and runs when a page with ads loads. You can turn this profiling off with Google's Ad Settings at adssettings.google.com, with the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada's WebChoices tool at youradchoices.ca/en/webchoices (which opts your browser out of interest-based ads from participating companies), or with your browser's third-party cookie controls, and back on again in Google's Ad Settings. The "Cookie Settings" link in the footer opens a consent dialog only where a regional consent message applies (the EEA, the UK and Switzerland); everywhere else, Canada included, it brings you to Section 4 of this policy.
11. Security
We use commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures (including TLS encryption in transit, restricted administrative access, and regular security updates) to protect personal information. No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.
12. Children
This Site is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA, subject to member-state law). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
13. Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Log file data: up to 90 days. Analytics data: Cloudflare Web Analytics keeps complete page-view data for 7 days, then aggregates it down to about 10 percent, which stays viewable for six months.
14. Breach Notification
We maintain an incident response process. In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to rights and freedoms, we will notify the relevant supervisory authority (within 72 hours under GDPR) and affected individuals as required by applicable law. Under PIPEDA, we will also notify the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada and affected individuals of any breach of security safeguards involving real risk of significant harm, and maintain breach records as required by the Breach of Security Safeguards Regulations.
15. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Each change is listed below with its date and version, and the "Last Updated" date at the top moves with it. Before October 17, 2026, changes were marked by that date alone; that earlier text counts as version 1.
Version history
- October 17, 2026, version 2.0: New Section 6 on affiliate links names the five programs a link marked "Ad" can go through (Amazon Associates, Sovrn Commerce, Impact, Awin and CJ) with what each says it collects, how long it keeps it and how to opt out. Section 2 adds affiliate link clicks. Section 4 adds affiliate cookies, describes the converter's recent-conversions list in local storage and adds the offline copy of the converter. Former Sections 6 to 15 are now 7 to 16.
