Effective date and purpose
Effective September 1, 2026, this Cookies Policy explains how ILoveJavaScript.com and services used by the website may use cookies and similar browser technologies. It should be read with the Privacy Policy, which describes browser-based tool processing, routine hosting information, analytics, email contact, and external services in broader detail.
ILoveJavaScript.com provides developer tools and educational content without requiring a user account. The website does not use cookies to store the JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Next.js, CSS, or other source text that you enter into the tool editor. The main reason cookies or comparable identifiers may be encountered on the current site is website measurement through Google Analytics or behavior provided by a third-party destination that you choose to open.
What a cookie is
A cookie is a small piece of data that a website or service can ask a browser to store. The browser may return that data during later requests, allowing the service to recognize a browser, preserve a preference, maintain a session, or measure activity over time. Some cookies disappear when the browser session ends, while others remain until their expiration date or until they are deleted.
Similar technologies can include local browser storage, pixels, tags, software identifiers, or request information used to associate events. These technologies do not all work in exactly the same way, but privacy policies often discuss them together because they can support related purposes.
Whether a cookie is available depends on the browser, privacy settings, extensions, consent controls, and the service attempting to use it. Blocking cookies does not necessarily prevent every request or every form of measurement, because a website still needs to receive ordinary technical information to deliver a page.
Google Analytics cookies and measurement
ILoveJavaScript.com includes Google Analytics using measurement ID G-BNZ654CT3J. The Google tag is loaded to help understand how visitors use the public website. Depending on Google’s configuration and your browser or consent environment, Google Analytics may set or read cookies and use related identifiers.
Analytics can provide aggregated information such as the number of visits, commonly viewed pages, general engagement, device or browser category, referral source, and approximate session activity. This helps identify which tools and guides visitors find useful and where the website may have navigation or content problems.
ILoveJavaScript.com does not configure custom analytics events to transmit the source code typed into the developer-tool editors. Tool input and generated output are not intended to become analytics event values. You should nevertheless avoid placing sensitive information in a page URL, query string, or fragment because URLs can be included in routine browser history, requests, logs, or analytics page information.
Google operates the analytics service and has its own documentation, privacy practices, retention choices, and account-level controls. Those details can change independently of this website. Browser privacy features and Google’s available opt-out mechanisms may limit or prevent some analytics activity.
Essential website operation
The current application does not require an ILoveJavaScript.com sign-in session, shopping cart, paid subscription, or saved project account. Its developer tools run in the active browser page. The source you paste is held in temporary component state so the tool can process it and display a result; it is not intentionally stored in a cookie.
Normal website delivery may still involve short-lived technical state at the browser, network, or hosting layer. Security systems and delivery platforms can use request-level signals to route traffic, reduce abuse, or maintain reliable service. Not every such signal is a cookie, and ILoveJavaScript.com does not represent that disabling browser cookies will stop routine network processing.
Browser storage used by the tool interface
The current tool workflow does not use local storage or session storage to preserve submitted source code for future visits. If you refresh the page, close the tab, or navigate away, unsaved editor content may be lost. Copying a result places text on the clipboard through a browser action that you initiate. Downloading creates a temporary browser object and saves a file according to your browser settings.
Your browser, operating system, extensions, password manager, clipboard manager, or managed-device software may maintain their own history or storage. Those systems are outside the control of ILoveJavaScript.com. Use a trusted device and a suitable browser profile when working with source that requires special care.
Third-party destinations
The website contains links to external documentation and resources. The language selector can direct you to Google Translate when you choose a translated version. A third-party website may set its own cookies or use other tracking technologies after your browser navigates there. Its policies and controls apply to that visit.
ILoveJavaScript.com does not control cookies created by an external destination. Before using a third-party service, review its address, cookie controls, and privacy information. Closing the destination or returning to ILoveJavaScript.com does not automatically delete data that the third party has already stored in your browser.
How to control or delete cookies
Most browsers provide settings to view, block, limit, or delete cookies and other website data. You may be able to block all cookies, block third-party cookies, clear data for a particular domain, use tracking protection, or remove data when the browser closes. Private browsing modes can reduce persistence on the device but do not make activity invisible to websites, networks, or service providers.
Blocking analytics cookies should not prevent you from reading public pages or entering source into the browser-based tools. Some external services, including translated versions or linked documentation, may behave differently under restrictive settings. Browser vendors use different names and menus for these controls, so consult the official help material for your browser and version.
Deleting cookies removes identifiers stored in that browser profile but may not delete aggregate analytics already created or information held by a service provider under its own policies. It also does not remove ordinary browser history, downloaded files, clipboard content, or email you have sent.
Cookie duration and changes
The duration of an analytics cookie depends on the cookie type, Google Analytics configuration, browser intervention, and any consent or privacy controls that apply. ILoveJavaScript.com does not promise a universal lifetime because these factors can vary. Your browser’s cookie view is the most direct place to inspect what is currently stored for a particular site.
The website may change its analytics or technical implementation over time. If a change materially affects the cookies or similar technologies described here, this policy will be updated. The effective date at the top identifies the current published version.
Responsible use of developer tools
Cookie controls are only one part of protecting development information. Do not submit production secrets, authentication tokens, private keys, customer data, or proprietary source without authorization and an appropriate risk assessment. Browser-side processing does not protect content from an unsafe extension, compromised device, shared clipboard, screen capture, or local monitoring software.
