Cookie policy

This cookie policy explains what cookies and similar browser storage technologies are used on australiati.me and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

What cookies are

Cookies are small pieces of data that a website can store in your browser, along with related technologies such as local storage, which work in a similar way but are used more for saving settings than for tracking. We use both to keep this site simple and functional.

Necessary storage

Some storage on this site is essential to how the tools work. Alarm and timer settings, unit preferences and similar choices are typically saved using local storage so that a page remembers your last input if you reload it or return later. This category also covers storage needed to remember basic preferences, such as a cookie consent choice you've already made. Without this, every tool would reset itself on every visit.

Analytics cookies

We use a web analytics service to understand overall site usage — which pages are popular, roughly how much traffic the site gets, and whether tools are working as expected. This may involve cookies or similar identifiers that allow the analytics service to distinguish one visit from another in aggregate, without identifying you personally.

Advertising cookies (future use)

This site does not currently use advertising cookies. If advertising is introduced in the future, this section will be updated to describe which advertising partners are used and what cookies or similar technologies they set, and your consent will be sought where required before any such cookies are placed.

Managing cookies in your browser

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Doing so may affect saved preferences on this and other websites, but it will not stop the core alarm, timer and calculator tools from working.

Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data, where you can view, block or delete cookies for specific sites.

Safari: Settings → Safari (on iOS) or Preferences → Privacy (on Mac) → Manage Website Data, where stored data can be viewed and removed, along with options to block cross-site tracking.

Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data, which allows you to clear existing data and choose how future cookies are handled.

Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data, with similar options to view and remove stored data.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated as the tools on this site change, particularly if analytics or advertising arrangements change. Check back periodically for the latest version. [Insert last updated date.]
