Cookie Policy

What cookies are

Cookies and similar browser technologies are small pieces of information used to remember settings or understand how a website is used. This policy explains the technologies used on Smart Tool Reviews.

Necessary storage

We use local browser storage to remember whether you accepted or rejected optional analytics. This preference is necessary to respect your choice and does not create an advertising profile.

Optional analytics

With your permission, we use Google Analytics 4 to measure visits, page views, traffic sources, device categories, and general engagement. This information helps us improve reviews, comparisons, and guides. Analytics is not loaded until you accept analytics cookies.

Our Google Analytics configuration

We use Google Analytics for audience measurement rather than personalized advertising. Advertising storage, advertising user data, ad personalization, and Google Signals are disabled in our implementation. Google may process analytics information according to its own privacy terms.

Your choices

You can accept, reject, or manage optional analytics from the consent notice. After making a choice, use the “Cookie settings” button at the bottom of any page to change it. Rejecting analytics does not prevent you from reading or navigating the site.

How long the preference lasts

Your consent preference remains in your browser until you change it or clear the site’s stored data. Analytics cookies, when permitted, follow the retention and expiration rules applied by Google Analytics.

Future changes

If we add another optional analytics, advertising, or affiliate-tracking technology, we will update this policy and the consent controls before activating it where consent is required.
