The cookies we use
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
PHPSESSID | AI Tools Directory (first party) | Session identifier. It lets our forms (tool submission) verify that a request really comes from the page you loaded, and supports spam protection. | Until you close your browser | Strictly necessary |
This cookie is set with the HttpOnly and SameSite=Strict attributes, and with Secure on HTTPS, which means it cannot be read by page scripts and is not sent with requests from other websites.
We do not use advertising cookies, social-media tracking cookies or analytics cookies. Because we only use a strictly necessary cookie, we do not show a cookie consent banner. If this changes we will update this page and ask for your consent where the law requires.
Third-party resources
To display pages we load a few resources from third-party servers: fonts (Google Fonts), tool logos (Google favicon service), icons (Cloudflare CDN) and a styling framework (Tailwind CSS CDN). These requests are not cookies, but they necessarily send your IP address and browser information to the provider so it can respond. Those providers may set their own cookies under their own policies; we do not control this. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Tool pages also link to external websites. Those sites have their own cookies and policies.
How to manage or delete cookies
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Look for "Privacy", "Cookies" or "Site data" in Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge. If you block the session cookie, the tool submission form may stop working because it cannot verify your request.
You can also use your browser's private mode, which discards cookies when you close the window.
