Cookies Policy

Last updated: 26/02/2026

This page explains how SmartTranslate.ai uses cookies and similar technologies. We use cookies that are necessary for the Service to function and, with your consent, analytics cookies. You manage your consent in the cookie banner.

1. What cookies and similar technologies are

  • Cookies are small text files stored on the user's device (for example, a computer or phone).
  • They may be session cookies (deleted when the browser is closed) or persistent cookies (stored for a set period).
  • In addition to cookies, similar technologies such as localStorage may be used to remember preferences and ensure the Service works properly.

2. Which cookie categories we use

  • Strictly necessary: required for the basic operation of the Service, security, session maintenance and remembering key preferences. These cookies are always active and cannot be turned off in the banner (because the Service does not work properly without them).
  • Analytics (optional): help measure traffic and understand how users use the Service so we can improve performance and UX. We only enable these cookies after you give consent.

3. Consent and managing preferences

  • On your first visit, a cookie banner appears where you can accept all cookies or choose only the necessary ones.
  • You can change or withdraw your consent for analytics cookies at any time by reopening the settings in the banner (or by deleting cookies in your browser).
  • Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

4. Examples of cookies used in the Service

  • Consent preferences: a cookie set by the banner mechanism (for example, "cc_cookie") to remember the user's choices.
  • Language preferences: a cookie that remembers the selected language variant (for example, "smartTranslate_language").
  • Analytics (after consent): cookies from analytics tools (for example, Google Analytics: "_ga", "_gid" and related variants).
  • Authentication (if sign-in is available): session cookies from the sign-in provider may be used to maintain the session and security.

5. Analytics providers and operating modes

  • The Service may use Google Analytics 4 with Google Consent Mode v2 and Cloudflare Web Analytics.
  • We load and activate analytics tools in line with the choices you make in the cookie banner. If you do not consent to the analytics category, we do not enable analytics cookies and limit tracking to the extent permitted by law.
  • Details about the processing of personal data in connection with analytics can be found in the Privacy Policy.

6. How to manage cookies in your browser yourself

  • You can delete cookies and block them from being saved in your browser settings.
  • Blocking necessary cookies may cause the Service to work incorrectly (for example, problems with sign-in or saving settings).
