Cookies and browser storage
Last updated: 13 November 2026.
We do not use advertising cookies, tracking cookies or marketing pixels, so there is no cookie banner. The site keeps a few things in your browser's own storage (local storage) so the tools remember your choices. That information stays on your device unless you sign in and choose to sync it.
What we store in your browser
| What | Why | Kept |
|---|---|---|
| Language, country and market choice; preferences (news topics) | So the site opens the way you set it | Until you clear it |
| Tool data: plans, limits, challenge, results, recent searches (and any journal kept before that tool was retired) | So your work is there next time | Until you clear it |
| Sign-in token (only if you sign in) | To keep you signed in | Until you sign out |
| Small ‘seen it’ notes (welcome, tour, example chat closed for this visit) | So we do not show the same thing again | Until you clear it, or until the tab closes |
| Recent error messages | So a problem report can include them | Until you clear it |
Visit counting uses no cookies; it keeps only a random visit number in this tab's session storage, which your browser deletes when you close the tab (see our privacy policy).
