Plain English Summary
01

About This Service

Convert Units Lab ("we", "us", "the site") is a free unit conversion tool based in Victoria, Australia. The site is provided for educational and informational purposes only.

By using convertunitslab.com you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.


02

Accuracy of Conversions

We take reasonable care to ensure conversion results are mathematically correct. However, we make no warranty — express or implied — that results are error-free, complete, or suitable for any particular purpose.

Do not rely solely on this site for critical decisions. Conversions involving safety-critical applications — engineering tolerances, medication dosages, legal measurements, financial calculations — should always be independently verified against authoritative sources.

Conversion factors are based on internationally recognised standards (SI units, imperial definitions) at the time of publication. We reserve the right to correct errors without notice.


03

AI-Generated Explanations

Some pages on this site include explanatory text generated by artificial intelligence (Anthropic's Claude). These explanations are intended to provide general real-world context for conversion results.

AI-generated content is not reviewed by a qualified professional before publication. It may contain factual inaccuracies, outdated information, or reflect limitations of the underlying AI model. It must not be treated as professional, medical, legal, financial, or safety advice of any kind.

We configure the AI to avoid giving personal recommendations or directive guidance. However, no AI system is infallible. If you receive AI-generated content that appears to give personal advice, please disregard it and consult an appropriate professional.


04

Health & Medical Information

This site includes conversions and reference information related to body temperature, body weight, and pharmaceutical measurements. This content is provided as factual reference information only.

Nothing on this site constitutes medical advice. Reference information about body temperature ranges, body weight statistics, or medication weights does not account for your individual circumstances and must not be used as the basis for any medical decision.

If you have concerns about your health — including fever, weight, or medication — consult a registered medical practitioner or qualified healthcare professional.

In an emergency, call 000 (Australia), 999 (UK), or 911 (US).


05

Intellectual Property

The site design, code, engine logic, contextual content, and structure of Convert Units Lab are owned by the site operator. Unauthorised reproduction, scraping, or commercial use of the site's content or code without permission is prohibited.

Mathematical conversion formulas and physical constants are facts and are not subject to copyright. You are free to use conversion results in your own work.

If you'd like to use our conversion logic or content in a project, contact us — we're open to discussing it.

06

Privacy & Data

We do not require you to create an account or provide personal information to use this site. Conversion history is stored locally in your browser only and is never transmitted to our servers.

Our full privacy policy — including details of any analytics, advertising, or third-party services — is available at convertunitslab.com/privacy.

If we introduce email collection in future (for example, a newsletter or product waitlist), we will update this policy and provide a clear opt-in mechanism compliant with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and applicable international privacy laws.


07

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law — including the Australian Consumer Law — the operator of Convert Units Lab excludes all liability for any loss or damage arising from your use of this site, including but not limited to:

Loss or damage arising from reliance on conversion results, AI-generated content, or reference information provided on this site — whether the loss is direct, indirect, consequential, or incidental.

Where liability cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law (for example, consumer guarantees for services), our liability is limited to the cost of re-supplying the service — which, as this is a free service, is nil.

Nothing in these terms limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law or any other non-excludable statutory right.


08

Third-Party Links & Services

This site may include links to third-party websites such as postal carrier calculators, health reference sites, or other external tools. These links are provided for convenience only.

We have no control over third-party websites and accept no responsibility for their content, accuracy, or availability. Visiting a linked site is at your own risk and subject to that site's own terms.

The AI explanation feature uses Anthropic's Claude API. Use of this feature is additionally subject to Anthropic's Consumer Terms of Service.


09

Advertising

This site may display advertising in the future, including through Google AdSense or similar services. Advertising does not influence conversion results or AI-generated content. Advertisers do not pay to have their products promoted in our content.

If advertising is introduced, we will update our Privacy Policy to disclose any associated data practices, including any use of cookies by advertising partners.


10

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms at any time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

Significant changes — for example, the introduction of paid features or email data collection — will be communicated clearly before taking effect.


11

Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. Any dispute arising from your use of this site will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Victoria, Australia.

If you are accessing this site from outside Australia, you are responsible for compliance with any local laws that apply to your use of the site.
