Are my SVG files uploaded anywhere?

No. This conversion runs entirely inside your browser, so the file never leaves your device. You can confirm it yourself: open the network tab of your browser's developer tools and watch that nothing is sent while the file converts.

Is converting SVG to ICO free?

Yes, without a limit on how many files you convert and with no watermark on the result. Files up to 100 MB are covered by the free plan.

Does converting SVG to ICO lose quality?

SVG and ICO describe content in fundamentally different ways, so the conversion is a reconstruction rather than a copy. The result is faithful, but not byte-for-byte equivalent.

Do I need to install anything to open ICO files?

No installation is needed for the conversion itself — it runs in the browser you already have. Opening the ICO afterwards needs whatever software normally handles Windows Icon on your device.
