Cookies. The digital kind.

This page explains how UsefulTho uses cookies and similar browser storage technologies.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small pieces of information stored by your browser. They can be used to remember settings, maintain functionality and measure how websites are used.

2. Analytics cookies

UsefulTho uses Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the website.

Where analytics storage is permitted, Google Analytics may use first-party cookies including:

  • _ga — used to distinguish users; and
  • _ga_<container-id> — used to maintain session state.

Analytics helps us understand which UsefulTho tools are useful, how people discover them and where the website can be improved.

3. Browser extension storage

Chrome extension storage is not the same thing as website cookies.

UsefulTho extensions may use browser extension storage to remember functional settings such as timer duration, selected theme, timer state and floating-widget position.

This information exists to make the extension work and is described in our Privacy Policy.

4. Your choices

You can control or remove cookies through your browser settings.

Where applicable, UsefulTho will provide controls for non-essential analytics storage before using such storage.

Blocking analytics cookies should not prevent the core UsefulTho tools from working.

5. Changes

We may update this policy when we introduce new analytics, storage technologies or services.

6. Contact

Questions about cookies or analytics can be sent to contact@usefultho.com.
