Cookie Policy

Last updated: 6/18/2026

What are cookies? Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixels. This Cookie Policy explains how FetchFavicon ("we," "us") uses cookies and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy. How we use cookies We use cookies and similar technologies for: (1) Essential operation — remembering UI preferences (for example, sidebar state) and ensuring basic functionality; (2) Analytics — understanding aggregated traffic and usage through services such as Google Analytics and Plausible; (3) Advertising — when enabled, serving and measuring ads through Google AdSense and partners; (4) Security — helping detect abuse and protect the Service. Essential cookies Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems in all cases. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting privacy preferences or using core features. You can set your browser to block these cookies, but some parts of the site may not work. Analytics cookies Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with FetchFavicon — for example, which pages are visited and whether errors occur. We may use Google Analytics (Google LLC), which uses cookies such as _ga and _gid with varying retention periods (often up to 2 years for _ga). We may also use Plausible Analytics, which is designed to minimize personal data collection. Analytics cookies are non-essential in many jurisdictions and require your consent where mandated by law (for example, in the EEA and UK). Advertising cookies When we display Google AdSense or similar advertising, Google and its partners may set cookies such as __gads, IDE, and ANID to deliver ads, limit ad frequency, measure performance, and prevent fraud. These cookies may track your activity across sites to show relevant ads. Advertising cookies are non-essential and require consent where required by law. We enable advertising cookies only after you accept advertising cookies in our consent banner (where shown) or where local law does not require prior consent. Consent management When you first visit FetchFavicon from a region where consent is required, we display a cookie banner allowing you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or review this policy. Your choice is stored in your browser (localStorage key: fetchfavicon_cookie_consent). You can change your mind at any time by clearing site data or clicking "Cookie settings" in the site footer when available. Essential cookies may still be used to provide core functionality. How to opt out and manage cookies Browser controls: Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through settings. Refer to your browser's help documentation. Google Analytics opt-out: Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or use browser settings to block analytics cookies. Google Ad Settings: Manage personalized ads at https://adssettings.google.com. Network Advertising Initiative: Opt out of many advertising cookies at https://optout.networkadvertising.org. Digital Advertising Alliance: https://optout.aboutads.info. Your Online Choices (EU): https://www.youronlinechoices.eu. Plausible: Does not use cross-site tracking cookies in its default configuration; see plausible.io/privacy-policy. Cookie retention Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire or you delete them. Analytics cookies typically last from 24 hours to 24 months depending on the provider. Advertising cookies may last up to 13 months or longer per provider policies. Our consent preference is stored until you clear it. Updates We may update this Cookie Policy when we add tools, analytics providers, or advertising partners. Check the "Last updated" date above. Contact hello@fetchfavicon.com with questions.
