Terms of Use
1 Scope & Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Use (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of the website ConvertForMe.net (the "Website"), including all content, tools, features, and services made available on or through it. The Website is operated by:
By accessing or using the Website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must immediately discontinue your use of the Website.
These Terms apply to all users of the Website, regardless of their country of residence. Users located in the European Union benefit from additional rights under applicable EU consumer protection law, which are not limited by these Terms.
2 Description of the Service
ConvertForMe.net provides a free, online unit conversion tool (the "Service") allowing users to convert values between different units of measurement across various categories (such as length, weight, temperature, area, volume, speed, and others).
The Service is provided free of charge and is intended for general informational and personal use only. No registration or account is required to use the basic conversion features of the Website.
The Website displays third-party advertisements facilitated by Google AdSense. These advertisements help fund the operation of the Service. We do not endorse the products or services advertised.
3 Accuracy Disclaimer
While we strive to ensure that all conversion results provided by the Website are accurate, we make no representation, warranty, or guarantee — express or implied — as to the accuracy, completeness, reliability, suitability, or timeliness of any conversion result, formula, or information displayed on the Website.
Conversion results may contain errors, rounding differences, or inaccuracies resulting from changes in internationally recognised standards, unit definitions, or the limitations of floating-point arithmetic. Certain conversion factors (in particular those used in scientific, legal, or trade contexts) are subject to periodic revision by standards bodies.
You are solely responsible for verifying any conversion result before relying upon it for any purpose.
If you identify an error or inaccuracy in our conversion data, we welcome you to notify us via the contact details in Section 13. We will investigate and correct confirmed errors at our earliest convenience.
4 No Professional Reliance
The Service is designed for general informational and everyday personal use. The conversion results provided by this Website are not intended to be used as the basis for professional, commercial, scientific, medical, legal, engineering, financial, or any other specialised decision-making where precision, regulatory compliance, or professional standards are required.
The operator of this Website expressly disclaims all responsibility for any consequences arising from the use of conversion results in professional, commercial, scientific, medical, legal, technical, or regulatory contexts.
If you are using unit conversions in a professional, industrial, medical, legal, or any other regulated context, you must independently verify all results using certified instruments, authoritative standards (such as those published by NIST, ISO, BIPM, or equivalent national bodies), or by consulting a qualified professional. You must not rely solely on this Website for such purposes.
Examples of uses for which this Website is not suitable as a sole source include, without limitation: pharmaceutical dosing calculations, civil or structural engineering design, legal contracts specifying unit measurements, laboratory analysis, aviation or navigation calculations, and trade or customs documentation.

11 Governing Law & Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, without prejudice to any mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which you reside as a consumer.
If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, you also benefit from any mandatory protective provisions of the law of your country of residence, and nothing in these Terms deprives you of the protection afforded by those mandatory provisions.
Subject to any mandatory rules of jurisdiction applicable to consumers under EU or German law (in particular Article 18 of EU Regulation 1215/2012 on jurisdiction and the recognition of judgments), any disputes arising from or in connection with these Terms that cannot be resolved amicably shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of Germany.
EU Online Dispute Resolution
The European Commission provides an Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform for consumers and traders in the EU, accessible at: ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are neither obliged nor willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board (Verbraucherschlichtungsstelle), pursuant to § 36 of the German Consumer Dispute Resolution Act (VSBG). However, we encourage users to contact us directly to resolve any dispute.
12 Severability & Entire Agreement
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable under applicable law — in particular pursuant to § 307 of the German Civil Code (BGB) — that provision shall be deemed severed from these Terms to the minimum extent necessary. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
Where a severed provision formed a material part of these Terms, the parties shall endeavour to agree upon a valid replacement provision that most closely reflects the original intent.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and the operator with respect to your use of the Website and supersede all prior agreements, representations, or understandings.
