What cookies are

Cookies are small text files a website asks your browser to store. They can be set by the site you are visiting (first-party) or by other services whose scripts the site loads (third-party). Browsers also offer other storage, such as local storage and IndexedDB, which websites use for similar purposes.

Image York’s own code

The tools themselves do not set cookies. Your images and settings are not saved in cookies or browser storage. The only storage a tool uses is the OCR language data cached by Image to Text in your browser’s IndexedDB, so it does not have to be downloaded again. Model files downloaded by the background tools may be kept in your browser’s normal cache.

Analytics cookies: Microsoft Clarity

Microsoft Clarity sets first-party cookies such as _clck and _clsk to recognise returning visitors and group page views into sessions, and may set cookies on Microsoft domains. They are used to produce usage statistics, heatmaps and session recordings. See the Privacy Policy for what Clarity collects.

Advertising cookies: Google AdSense

Google AdSense may set first-party cookies such as __gads and __gpi, and cookies on Google domains such as doubleclick.net. Google and its partners use them to serve and measure ads, limit how often you see the same ad and, where allowed, show ads based on your interests. You can turn off personalised ads in Google Ads Settings.

Managing cookies

  • Every major browser lets you block third-party cookies, block all cookies, or delete existing ones in its privacy settings.
  • Blocking cookies does not stop the image tools from working.
  • Clearing site data for imageyork.com also removes cached OCR language files.

Changes

This page will be updated if the site starts or stops using a service that sets cookies.
