1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit websites. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide security, remember user preferences, and supply reporting information to website operators.
2. How We Use Cookies
FivoTools uses browser storage and optional cookies for these purposes:
- Functional storage: Local browser storage remembers your analytics choice. The IRS Mileage Calculator stores its trip log; the ATS Resume Builder and Cover Letter Builder store drafts; and the Invoice Generator and Estimate Generator store document drafts. These records stay in this browser until you clear the data in the tool or remove this site's browser storage. Closing a tab does not remove saved drafts or logs.
- Analytics cookies: If you allow analytics, Google Analytics 4 may use cookies to recognize a browser across visits and measure page usage. Our page-view event omits URL query strings. We do not intentionally send tool inputs or file contents as analytics events.
3. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising
If third-party advertising is enabled later, vendors such as Google may use cookies to serve ads based on prior visits to FivoTools or other websites on the internet.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to FivoTools and/or other sites.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
4. Managing Your Cookie Choices
An analytics choice appears before Google Analytics loads. Choose “Allow analytics” or “Decline.” Use “Analytics choices” in the footer to change your selection later. This choice is stored locally in your browser. Advertising choices will need their own consent flow if advertising is enabled.
You can also manage or delete cookies directly through your browser settings. Most browsers permit you to:
- View the cookies stored on your device and delete them individually.
- Block third-party cookies or cookies from specific websites.
- Block all cookies from being set.
- Clear all cookies when you close your web browser.
5. Updates to This Policy
We may periodically update this Cookie Policy to reflect technical, operational, or legal requirements. Any modifications will be posted here with an updated "Reviewed & updated" date.
