This Cookie Policy explains how FreeTinyPNG uses cookies and similar storage technologies on freetinypng.org, and the choices you have. It supplements our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember your actions and preferences (such as language, theme, or whether you have dismissed a notice) over a period of time.
We also use related technologies including local storage and session storage, which serve similar purposes but are stored differently in the browser. For simplicity, we refer to all of these as “cookies” in this policy.
Why we use cookies
We use cookies to:
- Operate the site. Some cookies are strictly necessary for basic functionality.
- Understand site usage. Analytics cookies help us see how the site is used in aggregate so we can improve it.
- Display advertising. Advertising cookies allow our ad partners to show ads and measure their effectiveness.
Types of cookies we use
Strictly necessary
These cookies are essential for the site to function. They cannot be disabled.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| (browser default) | Standard browser functionality | Session |
Analytics
We use analytics cookies, primarily from Google Analytics 4, to count visits and understand traffic sources. These cookies help us improve the site over time.
| Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
Google Analytics (_ga, _ga_*) |
Distinguish users and sessions | Up to 2 years |
You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the official browser opt-out add-on.
Advertising
We use advertising cookies, primarily from Google AdSense, to display ads and measure their performance.
| Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Google AdSense | Serve and measure ads | Varies (see Google’s docs) |
You can opt out of personalized advertising at:
- Google: Ads Settings
- Industry-wide: aboutads.info or youronlinechoices.eu
Opting out does not eliminate ads — it makes them less personalized.
Managing cookies in your browser
You can manage and delete cookies through your browser settings. Instructions for the major browsers:
Disabling cookies will not prevent the image tools from working — they do not require cookies — but it may limit some analytics and advertising features.
“Do Not Track” signals
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. There is no industry-wide standard for how DNT should be honored. Where required by law, we will respect a DNT signal as a request to limit non-essential cookies and tracking.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies evolves. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the latest revision.
