Cookie Statement
Last updated: July 12, 2026
The only cookies LazyTools sets are analytics cookies — from Google Analytics, which we use to measure how many people visit each tool — and they are set only if you accept our cookie banner. Analytics is off by default (Google Consent Mode, denied until you consent), so if you decline or ignore the banner, no cookies are set. We set no advertising or marketing cookies and do no cross-site ad-targeting. The tools work exactly the same either way.
The cookies we set
Once you accept, these are the analytics cookies Google Analytics (GA4) places to measure page visits and engagement. They record how the site is used — never the content you enter into a tool. If you decline, none of these are set.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
_ga | Distinguishes individual visitors (a pseudonymous ID) | 2 years |
_ga_<id> | Persists session state for our GA4 property | 2 years |
Durations are the defaults Google sets and are refreshed on each visit. See the privacy policy for what GA measures and how to opt out.
What isn't a cookie
- Local storage, kept locally. Some tools remember your preferences or saved data — Pomodoro settings, Kanban boards, a saved unit, whether you've rated a tool — using your browser's own local storage. This is not a cookie: it stays on your device, is never transmitted to us, and you can clear it any time via your browser settings.
What we don't use
- No advertising or marketing cookies.
- No cross-site ad-targeting, and we do not sell or share your data for advertising.
- No cookies tied to your tool content — the files and values you process never reach a server in the first place.
How to opt out
Install Google's Analytics Opt-out Add-on, use your browser's tracking protection or a content blocker, or block analytics cookies in your browser settings. Clearing cookies removes the identifiers already stored. Full details are in the privacy policy.
A note on server logs
Loading any website means your browser makes a request to a server, and — like every host — ours keeps standard access logs (see the privacy policy). That's ordinary web infrastructure, not a cookie.
Questions
Every tool on this site works exactly the same with or without cookies or analytics, because the tools don't depend on them. Questions? Contact us.
