Cookie Policy

A. Strictly Necessary & Functional Storage (Client-Side Only)

We use browser localStorage exclusively to save your workspace preferences. These keys never leave your machine:

• theme: Persists your selected UI appearance (Dark, Light, or System default).
• sidebar_collapsed: Remembers whether the utility navigation drawer is open or minimized.
• Local tool options: Remembers non-sensitive settings (such as indentation width or timestamp formats).

B. Advertising Cookies (Google AdSense)

To keep all 100+ developer utilities completely free without requiring subscriptions or paid accounts, yourstand.art displays contextual and programmatic advertisements powered by Google AdSense (Publisher ID: ca-pub-4113134320786119).

Google and its advertising partners set third-party cookies (including __gads, __gpi, and DoubleClick IDE) to:

• Enforce ad frequency capping (preventing the same banner from repeatedly appearing).
• Detect and prevent invalid click fraud and bot activity.
• Measure ad viewability and performance metrics.
• Serve personalized or non-personalized ads according to your consent settings.

C. Consent Management Framework

In jurisdictions covered by the EU GDPR, UK GDPR, or ePrivacy regulations, we employ a Google-certified Consent Management Platform (CMP) adhering to the IAB Europe Transparency & Consent Framework (TCF v2.2) to record and respect your cookie choices.
