People convert JPG to PNG when a website, app or design tool asks for PNG, when they want to edit a picture without adding more compression each time they save, or before cutting out a background to make it transparent.
For ordinary photos JPG is the better format: the PNG will be much larger and will not look any sharper, because the detail lost when the JPG was made cannot be brought back.
JPG (also written JPEG) is the most widely used format for photographs. It uses lossy compression, which keeps files small by discarding fine detail the eye is unlikely to miss. It does not support transparency or animation, and virtually every device, browser and app can open it.

No. PNG keeps the image exactly as it is now, so no more quality is lost, but it cannot undo the compression already in the JPG.
No. A JPG has no transparency, so the PNG has the same solid background. You can make it transparent afterwards in an image editor.

Yes. There is no sign-up and no watermark. To keep the service available for everyone there is a 95MB limit per file and a cap on how many files one connection can process in a short period.
Your upload is used only to make the converted file. Images are processed in memory; other files are written to a private temporary folder that is deleted as soon as the conversion finishes. Nothing is kept after the result has been sent back.
For images, a little, by design: the image is re-encoded at the Quality you choose (default 75%). Audio and video are re-encoded with high-quality settings; documents keep their text and layout as far as the target format allows. Converting never restores detail that is already missing from the original.
