Cookie Policy
Last updated: June 1, 2025
This Cookie Policy explains how PDFCraftPro ("we", "our", or "us") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit pdfcraftpro.com. It explains what cookies are, why we use them, and how you can control them.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide information to the website owner. Cookies do not give us access to your device or any personal information beyond what you choose to share.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies to:
- Keep the website secure and functioning correctly.
- Understand how visitors use our site so we can improve it.
- Serve relevant, unobtrusive advertisements via Google AdSense.
- Remember your preferences for a better experience.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
These cookies are essential for the website to function. They enable core features like security, session management, and accessibility. You cannot opt out of these.
Examples: Session ID, CSRF protection tokens, load balancer cookies.
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages are visited most, how long users stay, and where they come from. All data is aggregated and anonymous.
Examples: Google Analytics (_ga, _gid, _gat).
PDFCraftPro displays ads served by Google AdSense. Google uses cookies to serve relevant ads based on your browsing history. You can opt out of personalised advertising at any time.
Examples: Google AdSense (DSID, IDE, __gads, AID).
These cookies remember your preferences (such as language or previously uploaded file settings) to improve your experience on return visits.
Examples: Theme preference, last used tool, UI state.
4. Google AdSense & Advertising Cookies
PDFCraftPro is a free service supported by advertising. We use Google AdSense, which may use cookies to display personalised ads based on your browsing activity. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites.
You can opt out of personalised advertising by:
- Visiting Google Ad Settings.
- Visiting aboutads.info (Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out).
- Using your browser's private/incognito mode.
Note: opting out of personalised ads does not remove all ads — you will still see non-personalised advertising.
5. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control these third-party cookies. The relevant third parties include:
- Google Analytics – web analytics (Privacy Policy)
- Google AdSense – advertising (Privacy Policy)
6. How to Control Cookies
You can control and manage cookies in several ways:
- Browser settings – most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies. See your browser's help documentation for instructions.
- Opt-out tools – use the Google opt-out links above for advertising cookies.
- Cookie banner – when you first visit our site, you can choose your cookie preferences via our consent banner.
Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of PDFCraftPro, including some features of the editor.
7. Do Not Track
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature. Our website does not currently respond to DNT signals, as there is no industry standard for how websites should respond to such signals. We will update this policy if that changes.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
