Cookie Policy
Last updated:
This page explains what Sounez currently stores in your browser, and what will change if advertising or analytics are enabled in the future. For broader data practices, see our Privacy Policy.
Current status: no non-essential cookies
Sounez does not currently set advertising or analytics cookies, and no cookie consent banner is shown, because there is nothing non-essential to consent to yet. Google AdSense, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and any other tracking or advertising script are all disabled by default and only load if the site owner explicitly turns them on in the deployment configuration.
Functional local storage (always used)
A small amount of local storage is used for the site to function, independent of any advertising or analytics choice:
- If you mark a tool or blog post as helpful, a flag is stored in local storage so your vote is not counted twice from the same browser. This is not used to profile you for advertising.
- Smart Pack history uses a first-party session identifier so you can see your own saved generations on this browser. It is not used for advertising or cross-site tracking.
If advertising or analytics are enabled later
If Sounez enables Google AdSense or an analytics tool in the future, this policy will be updated first, and a proper consent solution will be added before any non-essential cookie is set for visitors in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland. That includes a Google-certified Consent Management Platform (CMP) or the AdSense-provided GDPR message, shown before any ad request or tracking script runs, with clear accept/reject controls.
Until that consent solution is live, advertising and analytics scripts remain disabled in code regardless of region, not just hidden behind a banner.
Tool data is separate from cookies
Many Sounez tools process your text or files without using any cookies at all. 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.
How to clear local storage
- Clear site data for sounez.com in your browser settings at any time.
- Use private browsing if you do not want local storage to persist between sessions.
