This Cookie Policy explains how TextAgo (“we”, “us”) uses cookies, browser storage and similar technologies on textago.com. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. Similar technologies include localStorage (data kept in your browser), pixels and device identifiers. Some are set by us (“first-party”); others by partners such as Google (“third-party”).
When you first visit, a banner lets you Accept all, Reject non-essential or Customize. Analytics and advertising are off by default until you choose. You can change your mind at any time:
You can also use the “Cookie settings” link in the footer of every page, or delete cookies and site data in your browser settings (this will also remove your saved notes, so export them first).

Third-party cookie names and lifetimes are set by Google and may change over time. Google may also use other identifiers not listed here; see How Google uses cookies.
The free text tools set no additional cookies. They may keep temporary data (for example downloaded language models for OCR) in your browser’s cache, which you can clear in your browser settings.
We use Google Consent Mode v2. Signals analytics_storage, ad_storage, ad_user_data and ad_personalization start as denied and are updated to granted only for the categories you allow. While denied, Google tags do not read or write advertising/analytics cookies and may send limited, cookieless pings used for aggregated modelling. When advertising consent is not given we request non-personalized ads.
We may update this policy when we change the cookies we use. The “Last updated” date shows the latest revision.
