What are cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of data that websites can store in a browser. Similar technologies, such as local storage, may remember settings or support website functions.
Essential cookies
ToolNest uses an authentication session cookie for its private administrator area. This helps protect access to the content management system. Visitors using public tools do not need to create an account.
Analytics and advertising
We do not currently claim to run Google Analytics or Google AdSense on this website. If we add analytics, advertising or other non-essential tracking, we will update this policy and provide any consent controls required by applicable law before activating them.
Third-party services
Hosting and infrastructure services may process technical requests. If external media, embedded content or advertising services are introduced, their providers may use cookies subject to their own policies.
Managing cookies
You can view, delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential authentication cookies may prevent administrator login. When optional tracking is introduced, available consent choices will be explained here.
Cookies compared with local storage
A cookie is typically sent with relevant web requests according to its domain, path and security settings. Browser local storage and session storage can hold data on your device without automatically attaching that data to every request. Websites may use these technologies for different purposes. Your browser provides tools to inspect and clear stored information.
Administrator sessions
The private content management area uses an authentication session cookie so authorized administrators can remain signed in while managing articles. Public visitors do not need an administrator session or an account to use ToolNest utilities. If an administrator blocks or deletes the required session cookie, they may need to sign in again.
What essential means
Essential cookies are used for functions necessary to provide a requested service, such as maintaining a secure authenticated session. Whether a cookie is strictly necessary depends on its purpose, not merely on its name. Optional advertising, personalization or analytics technologies may require separate disclosures or consent depending on applicable law.
Third-party network requests
Some features, including PDF processing, can load software resources from a third-party content delivery network. A network request to that provider may disclose technical information such as an IP address or browser headers even if no advertising cookie is involved. Cookies are only one part of online privacy; our Privacy Policy also discusses technical logs and third-party resources.
How to inspect or delete cookies
Most browsers allow you to view site data in their privacy or developer settings, remove data for a single website, or block categories of cookies. Menu names differ by browser and device. Removing stored data may reset preferences or sign you out of administrative functions. Private browsing modes may reduce persistence on your device but do not make network activity invisible to service providers.
Future advertising and analytics
If ToolNest introduces advertising or measurement services, this page should identify the providers, purposes and relevant choices before those services are used where required. Merely planning to apply for an advertising program does not mean its tracking technologies are already active. Please check the updated date when reviewing this policy.
