Cookie Policy
Welcome to SizeFix Tools (sizefix.in). This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar tracking technologies are, how we use them on our website, and how you can exercise full control over their use in strict adherence to the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act, Government of India) and applicable global privacy regulations.
100% Client-Side Assurance: SizeFix Tools does NOT use cookies or server uploads to inspect or store your photographs, signatures, documents, or resumes. All file conversion and resizing operates completely inside your browser's local RAM using client-side Web APIs.
1. What are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device by a web browser when you visit a website. In addition to cookies, modern web platforms utilize localStorage and sessionStorage to retain user choices directly on the device.
On SizeFix Tools, we use cookies and browser storage primarily to ensure you have a seamless experience (such as remembering your Dark/Light theme mode) and to enable third-party analytics and advertising services that keep our tools 100% free.
