Cookies & browser storage

A practical description of storage and third-party requests in the current edition.

Updated September 5, 2026

What the application uses

The Pediaa Tools application does not set cookies or use localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB, tracking pixels, or persistent visitor identifiers. Selected files, search text, and calculator values stay in the current page’s memory. There is no account, cart, or saved reading history.

Your browser can cache the HTML, stylesheet, JavaScript, and icon to load them efficiently. A cached file is different from a tracking cookie: it is a saved resource, not a profile maintained by this application. The browser may also restore form entries according to its own settings.

Hosting and network services

The hosting and security infrastructure receives requests to deliver pages. It may use security or challenge cookies, access logs, or network identifiers independently of the site’s application code. The exact behavior depends on the deployed hosting configuration. The absence of application cookies is not a claim that every server log or network identifier is absent.

Advertising is not active

This edition does not load advertising, analytics, external fonts, or social-media widgets. The AdSense meta tag and ads.txt entry are account-identification records; by themselves they do not create an ad request or tracking cookie.

If optional services are introduced, their actual storage behavior and applicable consent controls must be described before activation. We do not treat continuing to browse as consent to future tracking. A plain notice would not replace Google’s certified consent-platform requirements where they apply.

Your browser controls

You can clear website data, disable cookies, and manage caching or saved form information in your browser settings. Blocking JavaScript prevents the interactive tools from running but does not prevent reading the guides. Blocking all storage may affect other websites you use.

Following an external source link moves you to a separate website, which may use its own cookies. Review that site’s policy. For requests about this site, see Contact & corrections and our privacy policy.
