Cookie Policy
Last updated:
Sounez uses a small amount of storage in your browser so the site can remember your cookie choice, optional analytics, and ads. This page explains what that means in plain language. For broader data practices, see our Privacy Policy.
Your choice matters
When you first visit Sounez, you can accept or reject non-essential cookies. Rejecting means we do not load Google Analytics or AdSense scripts for your visit. Essential storage for your consent choice still applies so we do not ask you on every page load.
You can change your mind anytime via in the footer.
Essential storage (always used)
We use local storage for your cookie consent choice (sounez_cookie_consent_v1). Without this, the banner would appear on every visit.
If you mark a page as helpful on a tool or blog post, we store a simple flag in local storage so your vote is not counted twice from the same browser. That data is not used to profile you for advertising on its own.
Analytics cookies (optional)
If you accept cookies, Google Tag Manager may load Google Analytics. That helps us see which pages are useful (for example, which tools get opened) so we can improve the site. We do not use analytics to sell your personal data.
You can opt out via or your browser's block-third-party-cookies setting. Some browsers also offer a global analytics opt-out extension from Google.
Google AdSense cookies (optional)
If you accept cookies, Google AdSense may set cookies or use similar technologies to serve and measure ads on Sounez. Google may use cookies to show ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites, depending on your settings and region.
Learn more in How Google uses data on partner sites and Google Ads Settings.
Tool data is separate from cookies
Many Sounez tools process your text or files without using advertising cookies. For example, the image compressor runs in your browser. AI and PDF tools may send content to our servers for processing - that is described on each tool page, not via AdSense cookies.
Common examples
- Rejecting optional cookies does not stop browser-only tools from working.
- Clearing site data may reset cookie consent, helpful votes, and local tool preferences.
- Private browsing usually forgets Sounez storage when the private window closes.
How to clear or block cookies
- Open and reject non-essential cookies.
- Clear site data for sounez.com in your browser settings.
- Use private browsing if you do not want storage to persist between sessions.
