Cookie Policy

Last updated: January 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how OriginalityChecker.org uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit, such as your preferred settings or whether you’ve already seen a notice. Cookies set by the website you’re visiting are called “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by other services operating on that page are called “third-party cookies.”

How we use cookies

We use a minimal set of cookies. We do not use cookies for advertising, retargeting, or building individual behavioral profiles. The cookies we set fall into two categories:

Category	Purpose	Duration	Can be disabled?
Essential	Required for basic site functionality. These cookies enable core features and cannot be turned off without affecting how the site works.	Session or up to 1 year	No — disabling may break core features
Analytics	Anonymized data about how visitors navigate the site — pages visited, time on page, general location (country level). No personal profiles are built. Data is aggregated only.	Up to 26 months	Yes — via browser settings or opt-out

What we do not use cookies for

Advertising or remarketing networks
Social media tracking pixels
Cross-site behavioral profiling
Identifying individual users across sessions

Third-party cookies

If we use a third-party analytics provider (such as an anonymized statistics service), that provider may set its own cookies on your device. These cookies are governed by the provider’s own privacy and cookie policies. We select providers that offer anonymized, privacy-respecting analytics.

Managing cookies
