How the Colour Picker and Converter Works
Our Colour Picker and Converter is a browser-based tool for selecting, previewing, and converting colours between different formats.
Browser-Based Selection
This tool uses the standard HTML5 color input (<input type="color">) and custom UI components to help you choose a colour:
- Format Conversion: When you select a color, we use JavaScript to convert it to multiple formats:
- HEX: The standard 6-digit hexadecimal code.
- RGB: Red, Green, and Blue intensity values.
- HSL: Hue, Saturation, and Lightness representation.
- CMYK: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (Black) values.
- Conversion Logic: We use mathematical formulas to calculate each format based on the selected RGB values.
Privacy and Security
Your color choices and design data stay entirely in your browser:
- No Data Transmission: The colors you select and convert are processed locally and never sent to our servers.
- Security: You can safely pick and convert colors for your brand or client projects without worrying about your color choices being logged.
- No Storage: We do not store or see your color conversion history.
Verification
You can verify that this tool is 100% private by checking your browser's Network tab (F12). No network requests are made when you change the color or convert between formats.
