I am fine to convert whatever PDF's I have and read them on the kindle too?

It's fine to put books obtained elsewhere for free onto your Kindle. Provided you're sure that they're not pirated, but were legitimately available for free.
If you've obtained copies of recent, popular books for free from a site that doesn't belong to the author or publisher, they are almost certainly pirated.
E.g. If you've downloaded the Harry Potter books for free from some random website, they're pirated.
