Cookies Policy

Last updated: March 25, 2026

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are placed by the websites you visit and are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide security features, and supply information to site owners.

Cookies serve a variety of purposes, including:

  • Functionality — Enabling core features of the website to work correctly, such as form submissions and security protections.
  • Security — Helping protect against attacks like cross-site request forgery (CSRF) and verifying that visitors are real humans.
  • Analytics — Helping website owners understand how visitors interact with their site (we do not use analytics cookies).

Cookies can be classified by their lifespan:

  • Session cookies — Temporary cookies that are deleted when you close your browser. They exist only for the duration of your browsing session.
  • Persistent cookies — Cookies that remain on your device for a set period of time (or until you manually delete them). They are activated each time you visit the website that created them.

3. Cookies We Use

The following table lists all cookies that may be set when you use SEO Test Online:

All cookies listed above are classified as strictly necessary and are essential for the proper functioning of the website. They cannot be disabled without affecting core functionality.

4. Cookies We Do NOT Use

We want to be completely transparent about what we do not do. SEO Test Online does not use any of the following:

  • No Google Analytics or any analytics cookies — We do not track your browsing behavior, page views, session duration, or any other usage metrics via cookies.
  • No advertising or retargeting cookies — We do not use Google Ads, Facebook Pixel, or any other advertising or retargeting technology.
  • No social media tracking cookies — We do not embed social media widgets or scripts that place tracking cookies (e.g., Facebook Like buttons, Twitter embeds).
  • No third-party profiling or behavioral tracking — We do not build user profiles, track your interests, or analyze your behavior across sessions.
  • No cross-site tracking — We do not track your activity across other websites or share cookie data with third parties for tracking purposes.
We believe in a privacy-first approach. We collect only what is strictly necessary for the service to function.

5. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services that we use to provide essential functionality:

5.1 Cloudflare

Cloudflare may set cookies as part of their Turnstile CAPTCHA verification system. These cookies help determine whether a visitor is a real human or an automated bot. Cloudflare processes this data according to their Privacy Policy.

5.2 Google Fonts

We use Google Fonts to load the Inter typeface. Google Fonts does not set cookies on your device. However, when your browser loads the font files, it makes HTTP requests to Google's servers, which means Google receives your IP address and basic browser information. For details, see Google's Privacy Policy.

Note: We have no control over cookies set by third-party services. However, we limit third-party services to the absolute minimum necessary for the website to function.

6. How to Manage Cookies

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. Below are instructions for the most common browsers:

  • Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
  • Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
  • Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
  • Microsoft Edge: Settings > Privacy, Search, and Services > Cookies and site permissions

You can choose to block or delete cookies at any time. However, please be aware that:

Important: Disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect the functionality of SEO Test Online. In particular, CSRF protection cookies are required for form submissions — without them, the SEO analysis form may not work correctly.
