Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work properly, provide a personalized user experience, and analyze site traffic.

2. How ToolBoxer Uses Storage Technologies

ToolBoxer prioritizes essential, client-side functionality. Rather than using tracking cookies to identify individuals, we use modern browser localStorage to store purely functional interface states:

• Theme Preference: Remembers your selection of Dark or Light mode so the website loads without flickering.
• Tool Favorites: Retains a simple list of tool identifiers you have starred for quick access on your device.
• Recently Used Tools: Remembers the last few tools you visited to display a convenient "Recently Used" shortcut list.
• Snippet Vault: Stores your private code snippets locally without sending them over the web.

3. Third-Party Advertising & Analytics Cookies

When third-party advertising partners (such as Google AdSense) display ads on our website, they may set third-party cookies on your browser to measure ad performance and serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites on the internet.

You can choose to disable or selectively turn off third-party cookies in your browser settings, or manage your preferences through the Digital Advertising Alliance Consumer Choice tool.

• Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
