Manage Your Preferences
You have full control over non-essential cookies on regula.tools. You can inspect or update your current consent state at any time below:
1. What are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites. In addition to cookies, modern web utilities use Local Storage (localStorage), which stores data entirely inside your browser sandbox to allow preference retention and offline capabilities without sending data across the network.
2. Categorization of Storage We Use
These keys are essential to remember your privacy choices and provide requested functionality. They contain no personally identifiable information and do not track you across other websites.
| Key / Identifier | Storage Type | Purpose & Expiration |
|---|---|---|
| regula_cookie_consent | Local Storage | Remembers whether you accepted or declined analytics cookies (persists until cleared). |
When you grant explicit consent, Google Analytics 4 uses anonymous cookies to help us understand aggregate traffic trends and improve our calculation tools. If you choose "Necessary Only", these cookies are never created and analytics pings are completely disabled.
| Key / Identifier | Storage Type | Purpose & Expiration |
|---|---|---|
| _ga / _ga_* | Cookie | Google Analytics 4 anonymous session identification. IP anonymization enabled. Expires after 2 years. |
3. Browser-Level Controls
You can also manage or clear cookies and local storage directly through your browser settings (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). Blocking all cookies may reset your preferences each time you visit.
