How do I use the converted BibTeX in LaTeX or Overleaf?

Is this conversion private and secure?
Yes. The metadata resolution and conversion take place directly within your web browser. None of your citations or search queries are stored or tracked. In cases, when the Owlstown server is used to resolve citations, we cache the data for a few days for performance reasons, but the data is not stored permanently.
