Yes, absolutely secure. The conversion process is entirely client-side, meaning your CSV data never leaves your browser. No servers are involved, and no data is stored after your session ends.
The parser correctly handles CSV complexity including quoted fields containing newlines, commas, escaped quotes, and special Unicode characters. Headers are auto-detected from the first row and used as JSON object keys.
The limit depends on your browser's memory, as processing happens locally. Most CSV files up to 50MB work efficiently. Extremely large files (100MB+) may experience slight performance degradation.
Empty fields are preserved in the JSON output (as empty strings or null depending on context). If rows have different numbers of columns, the tool adapts by including all detected headers and leaving missing cell values empty.
The tool auto-detects headers from your CSV's first row. You can manually adjust the output by editing the CSV data before conversion or post-processing the generated JSON.
Dates are preserved as strings in the JSON output. This ensures compatibility across systems. For date calculations or formatting, process the JSON string values in your application with a date library like Moment.js or the native Date object.
Your data never leaves your browser. All processing is done locally on your machine, ensuring maximum security and speed. No server calls, no tracking, no risk.
