Cookie Policy
Which cookies this site loads, who sets them, and what stays on your device.
Last updated
Current state
Google Analytics 4 only loads if you choose "Accept analytics" in the cookie panel, and its cookies are set by Google rather than by us. Your choice is remembered in your browser and can be changed at any time with "Cookie settings" in the footer. Google AdSense is not currently serving advertisements on this site while we await AdSense approval, so no advertising cookies are being used at the moment. We set no cookies of our own; the only storage we control is local preference data described below.
Categories at a glance
- Essential browser storage — local preferences such as theme and recently used tools, kept on your device by this site. Active now.
- Analytics — Google Analytics 4 cookies set by Google. Active now.
- Advertising technology — Google AdSense. Advertising is not currently being served; advertising cookies are not in use for ads.
- Future AdSense usage — if AdSense is approved and enabled, it will run subject to applicable consent requirements, and this policy will be updated.
Analytics cookies (Google Analytics 4)
The gtag.js script for measurement ID G-4WNGZR2L11 loads only after you accept analytics, and then typically sets a _ga cookie, plus a _ga_<id>cookie, on your device. Google uses them to tell one visit from another and to group page views into a session; the default lifetime for these cookies is up to two years, and it is set by Google, not configured here. They let us see which tools are used and which ones error — never anything about the contents of your files.
Advertising cookies (Google AdSense)
Google AdSense (publisher ID ca-pub-2773750141920299) is not currently serving advertisements on this site, because the site is still awaiting AdSense approval. No advertising cookies are being set for ads at this time.
If and when AdSense is approved and enabled, Google and its advertising partners may set and read cookies or similar identifiers to serve ads, cap how often you see the same ad, measure performance, detect invalid traffic and, where permitted, personalise advertising. This page will be updated at that point. You can turn off personalised advertising in Google's Ads Settings without losing access to any tool on this site, and you can block or clear cookies in your browser.
Storage we control ourselves
- Strictly necessary: none beyond what your browser needs to load the page. There is no login, so there is no session cookie of ours.
- Preferences: your theme choice, recently used and saved tools, and interface settings such as your last quality value are kept in your browser's local storage on your device and are never transmitted to us.
- Fonts: web fonts are requested from Google Fonts, which serves the files and logs the request as any CDN would. No cookie is set by that request.
Controlling storage
You can clear or block cookies and local storage in your browser settings. Doing so will not stop the tools working, since image processing happens in memory; you may simply lose a remembered preference. Related reading: our privacy policy.
