What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by the websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to site owners. Cookies can be "first-party" (set by ZAQORI) or "third-party" (set by other companies, such as Google).
ZAQORI also uses localStorage and sessionStorage — similar browser-based storage technologies that allow tools to remember your inputs and preferences during and between visits.
How ZAQORI Uses Cookies
ZAQORI uses cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
| Purpose | Type | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Analytics & performance | Third-party (Google Analytics) | _ga, _gid, _gat |
| Advertising | Third-party (Google AdSense) | _gcl_au, IDE, NID |
| Preferences | First-party | theme (light/dark) |
| Tool inputs | localStorage / sessionStorage | calculator values, visitor_id |
Google Analytics
ZAQORI uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site — which pages are most read, how long users stay, and what content could be improved. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect this information in an aggregated, anonymous form.
You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or by using a content blocker.
Google AdSense and Advertising Cookies
Advertising cookies used by ZAQORI include:
- Google AdSense cookies — used to deliver relevant ads and measure ad performance.
- Google Ad Manager cookies — for ad frequency capping and measurement.
- DART cookie — set by Google to serve ads based on your visit to ZAQORI and other sites.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting:
- Google Ads Settings
- www.aboutads.info (for some third-party vendors)
Third-Party Cookies
Some third-party services we use may set their own cookies. These include:
- Google (Analytics, AdSense, YouTube embeds if any)
- Other advertising or content networks as they appear on the site
These third parties may use cookies to collect information about your online activities across different websites. ZAQORI does not control these third-party cookies. Please review the privacy policies of those third parties for more information.
LocalStorage and SessionStorage
In addition to cookies, ZAQORI uses your browser's local storage to:
- Remember your light/dark theme preference.
- Save calculator and tool inputs between page reloads.
- Store a random anonymous visitor identifier used for analytics aggregation.
This data stays in your browser. It is not transmitted to ZAQORI's servers for the majority of our tools. You can clear it at any time through your browser settings.
How to Manage Cookies
You have several options to manage or delete cookies:
- Browser settings — most browsers let you block or delete cookies for any or all sites. Look for "Privacy" or "Cookies" in your browser's settings.
- Google Analytics opt-out — install the official Google Analytics Opt-out Add-on.
- Ad personalization — visit Google Ads Settings to disable personalized ads.
- Do Not Track — some browsers offer a DNT signal. ZAQORI honors DNT where reasonably possible.
- Private/Incognito mode — most browsers do not store cookies in private browsing sessions.
