Cookies and similar storage
Cookies, IndexedDB and local or session storage let a site maintain secure sessions, remember choices and keep local tool data. Some are set by Flowties; authentication and advertising providers may set or access their own storage.
Essential storage
Essential storage supports Firebase authentication, account security, the one-tool guest allowance, consent records and features you explicitly use such as favourites, recent tools, notes and tasks. These functions may not work if storage is blocked. Essential storage is not used to upload the content entered into browser-first tools.
Advertising and measurement
Google AdSense may use advertising storage and personal data for ad delivery, fraud prevention, frequency limiting, measurement and personalization when permitted. Advertising and analytics consent signals default to denied. Where required, Google’s certified consent management message asks for and records choices before personalized advertising.
Flowties’ first-party pulse measurement is configured to require consent. Do Not Track is respected by that measurement script.
