Cookie Policy
Effective Date: November 1, 2026 · Last Updated: November 1, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how FontToolsPro (https://fonttoolspro.com) uses cookies, browser local storage, and similar digital technologies to deliver, analyze, and support our free online text generator and symbol tools.
1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a web server when you visit an online service. Cookies can store technical identifiers to recognize your browser on subsequent visits.
Browser Local Storage (HTML5 LocalStorage) is a modern web standard that allows websites to store small amounts of key-value data directly inside your browser. Unlike cookies, localStorage data is never automatically transmitted to servers in HTTP request headers.
2. Our Zero-Tracking Guarantee
FontToolsPro does not track, monitor, or record any words, phrases, or characters you type into our text boxes. All styling, Unicode transformations, and name generations are executed in memory by your browser. No cookies or storage entries are ever created from your typed text.
3. Complete Inventory of Storage Keys We Use
All local storage items set by FontToolsPro use the ftp: key prefix to keep them isolated from other websites:
| Storage Key | Category | Duration | Purpose |

ftp:consent | Strictly Necessary | Persistent | Records your cookie choices (analytics consent, timestamp) to comply with privacy laws. |

4. Third-Party Cookies (Consent-Gated)
FontToolsPro is an ad-free service. We partner only with Google Analytics 4 to collect aggregated, anonymous usage metrics when permitted:
- Google Analytics 4: Identifiers such as
_gaand_ga_*help us measure site traffic, device types, and page view trends. All IP addresses are anonymized. These scripts are loaded strictly after you grant consent.
5. How to Manage and Revoke Your Consent
You are always in complete control of your privacy settings on FontToolsPro:
- Re-Open Consent Dialog: Click the Cookie settings button located in the footer of every page at any time to modify your choices.
- Browser Controls: You can configure your browser to block third-party cookies or delete existing cookies upon closing your browser. Note that blocking all local storage may prevent the site from remembering your dark/light theme or favorited styles.
- Private / Incognito Browsing: FontToolsPro wraps all browser storage operations in safe exception handlers. Our website remains 100% functional inside private or incognito browsing windows without throwing errors.
