Are my XML 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 XML to JSON 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 XML to JSON lose quality?

No. JSON stores the same content without discarding anything, so the result is identical in quality to the original. XML attributes and text nodes both become keys, which is a judgement call the converter makes for you.

Do I need to install anything to open JSON files?

No installation is needed for the conversion itself — it runs in the browser you already have. Opening the JSON afterwards needs whatever software normally handles JavaScript Object Notation on your device.
