Cookie Policy

Last updated: February 13, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Editobox ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website at editobox.com. We believe in full transparency about how we collect and use data, so this page explains exactly what cookies are set, why they are set, and how you can control them.

By continuing to use our website, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy. You can change your cookie preferences at any time using your browser settings.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your computer, phone, or tablet when you visit them. They are widely used across the internet to make websites work properly, improve user experience, and provide information to website owners.

Cookies can be "first-party" (set by the website you are visiting) or "third-party" (set by a different domain, such as an analytics or advertising provider). They can also be "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (which remain on your device for a set period).

Editobox uses both first-party and third-party cookies. Most of our tools process your files locally in your browser and do not require any cookies to function. The cookies we do use are primarily for understanding site usage patterns (analytics) and serving relevant advertisements to keep our tools free for everyone.

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. They remember your preferences like dark mode and cookie consent status. Without these cookies, certain features would not work correctly. These cannot be disabled.

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with Editobox. These cookies tell us which tools are most popular, which pages have problems, and how long users spend on the site. This data is anonymized and aggregated — we cannot identify individual users from it.

Advertising Cookies

Editobox is free to use, and we rely on non-intrusive advertising (via Google AdSense) to fund our operations. These cookies help deliver relevant ads and measure their effectiveness. You can opt out of personalized advertising at any time.
