No. Everything runs in your browser - your file never leaves your device. How this is verifiable
A Shapefile is the classic GIS format from ESRI, actually a set of files (.shp geometry, .dbf attributes, .prj projection and more). This tool reads a Shapefile - easiest as a .zip containing those parts - and converts its points, lines and polygons, together with their attribute table, into a single GeoJSON FeatureCollection.
GeoJSON is the open, web-friendly standard understood by Leaflet, Mapbox, QGIS, PostGIS and most mapping tools. Drop the zipped Shapefile and get a .geojson file you can load directly into a map or a data pipeline, with attributes preserved as feature properties.
Everything runs entirely locally in your browser (no upload, even offline) - your data never leaves your device. Coordinates are passed through as stored; if the Shapefile is not in WGS84 (longitude/latitude), reproject it first, since GeoJSON expects WGS84.

Limitations: Reads a Shapefile (best as a .zip bundle with .shp/.dbf/.prj) into a GeoJSON FeatureCollection, with attributes kept as feature properties. Coordinates are passed through; non-WGS84 data should be reprojected first, since GeoJSON assumes WGS84.
No. The conversion runs entirely locally in your browser - even offline. Your data never leaves your device.
Best a .zip containing the Shapefile parts (.shp, .dbf, .prj and more); a single .shp also works but lacks attributes and projection.
Yes. The attribute table becomes the properties of each GeoJSON feature.
GeoJSON expects WGS84 (longitude/latitude). Coordinates are passed through unchanged, so reproject a non-WGS84 Shapefile first.
