Cookie Policy
Last updated: 2026-04-24
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies AIGenTools uses on aigentools.io, what each category does, and how you can control them. It's a companion to our Privacy Policy.
1. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files your browser stores on your device when you visit a website. They let us keep you signed in, remember your preferences, and understand aggregate usage so we can improve the Service. Throughout this policy, "cookies" also covers related technologies like localStorage, sessionStorage, and tracking pixels — mechanism differs, purpose is the same.
2. The Short Version
AIGenTools uses cookies in three categories:
- Essential — required to sign in and keep the Service secure.
- Analytics — help us count visits and find bugs; no individual tracking.
- Preferences — remember theme, language, and UI state.
We do not run advertising cookies. No banner ads, no retargeting pixels, no cross-site ad profiles. The cookies below exist to run the product, not to sell your attention.
3. The Three Categories
Essential
Required for the Service to work; if you block them, you can't sign in. They:
- Keep you logged in across pages within a session;
- Protect against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) on forms and checkout;
- Let our infrastructure provider distinguish real users from automated bots during security checks.
We do not ask for consent to set strictly-necessary cookies in jurisdictions that exempt them.
Analytics
We use a small number of analytics services to understand aggregate traffic — pages visited, drop-off points, errors. We deliberately use services that aggregate data and do not build cross-site advertising profiles. These cookies typically record:
- A randomly generated visitor identifier (not tied to your account or email);
- Pages visited on aigentools.io and time on each;
- Approximate location (country/city, derived from IP — not GPS);
- Technical info about your device and browser.
You can turn analytics cookies off at any time via Section 5.
Preferences
Small bits of UI state — theme (light/dark), language, panel layout. They don't identify you personally. Nothing breaks if you block them; you just reset preferences on next visit.
4. Third-Party Cookies
A few cookies come from third parties, triggered only by specific features:
- Payments — our payment processor loads on checkout and sets cookies for fraud prevention and session management, governed by its own policy.
- Third-party login — if you sign in with a third-party provider, that provider may set cookies during the sign-in flow.
- Customer support chat — our in-app support widget may set cookies so your conversation survives a page reload.
We do not use advertising networks, so you will not find ad-targeting or retargeting cookies from ad-tech vendors on AIGenTools.
5. How to Control Cookies
Your browser settings. Every modern browser lets you block or delete cookies — check help docs for Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge. Blocking only third-party cookies is a reasonable middle ground: the core Service still works and most tracking drops off. Blocking all cookies breaks sign-in.
Opt out of analytics directly. Each analytics provider publishes its own opt-out guidance. A privacy-focused browser extension (uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger) blocks most analytics and tracking scripts at the network level.
Mobile. Mobile browser settings apply the same way. We do not ship native mobile apps, so mobile advertising identifiers (IDFA / Android Advertising ID) are not relevant.
6. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
There is no universal industry agreement on what the "Do Not Track" (DNT) header or Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal means, so — consistent with most web services today — we do not currently react to DNT or GPC automatically. You can still opt out of non-essential cookies via the methods in Section 5, and we honor those choices. We will revisit this as legal standards around automated consent signals mature.
7. Children
AIGenTools is not intended for children under 16, and we do not knowingly set cookies on devices used primarily by a child. Contact us if you believe a child has used the Service and we will delete the associated account and any cookies we control.
8. Related Policies
- Privacy Policy — what personal data we collect (including via cookies) and what we do with it.
- Terms of Service — your overall use of AIGenTools.
Where this policy and the Privacy Policy overlap, both apply.
9. Changes
For material changes — a new cookie category or a new type of third party setting cookies — we give at least 14 days' advance notice by email or in-app. Smaller wording updates are published here with a fresh date at the top.
10. Contact
