This Cookie Policy explains how Simple Click Counter (accessible at simpleclickcounter.net) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on our website.

By using our website, you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree to our use of cookies, you should adjust your browser settings accordingly or refrain from using our site.

🔒 Your Privacy Matters: We use minimal cookies to ensure our counter tool works properly and to improve your experience. We never sell or share your data.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They help the website remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you don’t have to re-enter them every time you return.

Cookies are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the website owners. They do not contain personal information that can identify you directly.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes:

  • Essential Functionality: Some cookies are necessary for our counter tool to function properly. These cookies ensure that your count is saved locally in your browser and that the tool operates as intended.
  • Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website. These cookies collect anonymous information about your browsing behavior, such as pages visited, time spent, and referral sources.
  • Advertising: We may use Google AdSense to display relevant advertisements. These cookies help serve ads that are more relevant to your interests and limit the number of times you see an ad.

Please note that third-party services (like Google Analytics and Google AdSense) may use additional cookies that we do not control. We recommend reviewing their respective privacy policies for more information.

4. Third-Party Cookies

We use the following third-party services that may place cookies on your device:

  • Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to track website usage and improve our tools. Google Analytics collects anonymous information such as pages visited, time spent, and referral sources. Their privacy policy is available at Google Privacy Policy.
  • Google AdSense: We may display advertisements through Google AdSense. Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites. You can opt out of personalized ads at any time via Google Ad Settings.

We do not have control over the cookies set by these third-party services. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies for more information on how they handle your data.

5. Managing Cookies

You can manage your cookie preferences in several ways:

  • Browser Settings: Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can block, delete, or disable cookies at any time. However, please note that disabling essential cookies may affect the functionality of our counter tool.
  • Opt Out of Personalized Ads: You can opt out of personalized advertising from Google by visiting Google Ad Settings.
  • Google Analytics Opt-Out: You can install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on to prevent your data from being collected by Google Analytics.

For more information on how to manage cookies in your specific browser, please refer to your browser’s help documentation.

💡 Quick Tip: Most browsers offer a “private” or “incognito” mode that automatically deletes cookies when you close the window. This is a great way to use our counter tool without storing any cookies.

6. Local Storage

In addition to cookies, our counter tool uses your browser’s local storage to save your click count, session high, and total clicks. Unlike cookies, local storage data is not sent to our servers and remains exclusively on your device.

You can clear local storage data at any time through your browser settings. This will reset your counter to zero.

7. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will notify you of any material changes by updating the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page regularly.
