Cookie Policy

This policy explains what cookies are, which cookies AllConverter.tools sets and why, which third-party cookies may be placed on your device, and how you can control your preferences.

Effective date: 1 June 2025Applies to: allconverter.tools

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device — computer, tablet, or smartphone — when you visit. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to remember your preferences across sessions, and to provide analytical information to website owners.

Cookies set by the website you are visiting are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by organisations other than the website owner are called third-party cookies. Third-party cookies are typically placed by advertising networks, analytics providers, or embedded content — and they may track your browsing activity across multiple websites.

Cookies can be session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (stored on your device for a set period or until you delete them).

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. They enable core features such as page navigation, theme preferences, and security. Without these cookies, services you have asked for — such as remembering your dark-mode preference — cannot be provided.

Because these cookies are necessary for the site to operate, they do not require your consent under GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive. You cannot opt out of essential cookies while continuing to use the site.

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use AllConverter.tools — which tools are most popular, how users navigate between pages, and where visitors come from. This helps us improve the platform and prioritise new features.

GA4 collects data such as pages visited, time spent, and general geographic region (country/city level). IP anonymisation is enabled — your full IP address is never stored by Google Analytics. We do not use GA4 to identify you personally, and we have not enabled any advertising features within GA4.

Analytics cookies are only placed with your consent where consent is required by applicable law. You can withdraw consent at any time using the methods described in the Manage Cookies section.

Advertising Cookies

AllConverter.tools displays advertisements served by Google AdSense. AdSense uses cookies to serve ads that are relevant to you based on your browsing history and interests, and to measure the effectiveness of those ads.

Google may use the information collected via these cookies to personalise the ads you see on this site and on other websites across the internet. This processing is carried out by Google Ireland Limited under its own privacy policy. We do not have access to the data Google collects through AdSense, nor do we receive any personally identifiable information from Google in connection with advertising.

If you have not consented to personalised advertising, AdSense will serve non-personalised ads using contextual signals only (page content, approximate location) — no cross-site tracking. You can manage your Google advertising preferences at any time via Google Ad Settings.

Third-Party Cookies

In addition to Google Analytics and Google AdSense, certain tools on this platform make requests to third-party APIs to deliver their functionality — for example, the Website Speed Checker calls the Google PageSpeed API, and the Redirect Checker uses the Microlink API. These API calls are triggered only when you actively use those tools and transmit only the URL you enter — not your personal data. These requests do not set cookies on your device.

We do not embed social media plugins, comment systems, or other third-party widgets that would set additional cookies without your knowledge. If we add such functionality in future, this policy will be updated before deployment.

The following third parties may place cookies on your device when you visit AllConverter.tools:
