Cookie Policy

What we set, why we set it, and how to opt out — one switch at a time.

Last updated 28 July 2026

Change your choices any time

Your consent is stored only on this device. Open the settings dialog to toggle each category individually.

Overview

MyToolyard works without any non-essential cookies. Tools run in your browser; AI features use your own API keys stored locally in localStorage. We do not set ad or analytics cookies until you opt in.

You can revisit your choices any time via the Cookie settings link in the footer, or from the button above.

Strictly necessary

Required for the site to function: authentication session, theme preference, saved tool settings, and the consent choice itself. These are always on and cannot be disabled — without them the site cannot work.

  • mty_consent_v2 — your consent record (categories + timestamp).
  • mty_theme — light/dark preference.
  • Supabase auth session cookie — only if you sign in.

Analytics

Optional. Aggregated page-view counts that help us prioritise which tools to improve. No personal identifiers, no cross-site tracking. Off by default everywhere; off in EU / UK / CA / Brazil unless you opt in.

Retention: 26 months, aggregated.

Advertising

Optional. If enabled, Google AdSense may set cookies to show contextual or personalised ads. You can decline and still use every tool — ads simply won't appear. When disabled, the ad script is never loaded, so no third-party requests are made.

Affiliate links

Optional. Some outbound links may carry affiliate identifiers; declining means we receive no commission if you purchase via those links. Your experience is unaffected. Any commission helps keep the tools free.

AI keys & BYOK persistence

Optional. When enabled, your Bring-Your-Own-Key API keys (namespaced mty_key_*) and provider preference persist across browser sessions on this device. Disable to have keys wiped when you close the tab.
