This policy explains what cookies are, what cookies we use, and how you can control them.
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners.
Cookies can be "session cookies" (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them). They can also be "first-party cookies" (set by us) or "third-party cookies" (set by other companies).
We use cookies for the following purposes:
These cookies are required for the website to function. Without them, the service cannot be provided. They do not require your consent.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| sb-access-token | Keeps you logged in to your account (set by Supabase) | Session / 1 hour |
| sb-refresh-token | Refreshes your login session securely | 30 days |
| cookie_pref | Remembers your cookie consent choice | Until cleared |
pdfu_[date] is stored in your browser's localStorage — it is not a cookie. It tracks your daily free usage count (5 tasks/day) and automatically expires after 24 hours. You can clear it at any time via your browser's developer tools or by clearing site data for allpdfstuff.com.
These cookies remember your preferences to improve your experience. They are only set with your consent.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| aps_theme | Remembers your display preferences | 1 year |
| aps_lang | Remembers your language preference | 1 year |
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our website so we can improve it. All data is anonymised and aggregated. They are only set with your consent.
| Cookie Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics (if enabled) | Anonymous usage statistics — pages visited, tools used, time on site | Up to 2 years |
Note: We use privacy-friendly analytics settings. IP addresses are anonymised before storage. We do not use analytics data to build personal profiles.
localStorage
In addition to cookies, we use your browser's localStorage for certain site functionality. Unlike cookies, localStorage data is never sent to our servers — it stays entirely on your device.
| Key Name | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|
pdfu_[date] | Tracks your daily free task count (up to 5/day for free accounts). The key name includes today's date, so it automatically becomes unused the next day. | Automatically unused after 24 hours; cleared when you clear site data |
cookie_pref | Stores your cookie consent choice ("essential" or "all") so the consent banner doesn't appear on every visit. | Until you clear site data |
You can clear localStorage at any time by going to your browser's developer tools → Application → Local Storage → allpdfstuff.com → Clear.
Some features of our service rely on third-party providers who may also set cookies:
When you first visit AllPDFStuff, a cookie consent banner will appear. You can choose "Essential only" to allow only strictly necessary cookies, or "Accept all" to also enable functional and analytics cookies. You can change your preference at any time by clearing your browser's site data for allpdfstuff.com.
You can control and/or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
Instructions for common browsers: Chrome · Firefox · Safari · Edge
Note: Disabling essential cookies will prevent the service from working correctly. You may not be able to log in or use premium features.
You can opt out of Google Analytics across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature. Our website currently does not respond to Do Not Track signals, but we keep usage of tracking to an absolute minimum regardless.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. We will notify you of significant changes.
If you have questions about our use of cookies, please contact us via our Contact page. For questions about your data rights, see our GDPR page.
