SnapToolz doesn't set HTTP cookies. There's nothing for them to track because there's no server-side session.
A handful of small string values store your preferences (theme, language, favorites). Listed in full below.
No third-party analytics by default. No ad pixels. No fingerprinting. Read the privacy page for the full story.

SnapToolz uses a service worker (the standard web platform feature) to cache the app's own JavaScript, CSS, fonts, and icons. This is what makes SnapToolz work offline and load instantly on repeat visits.
The cache contains no user data— only SnapToolz's own files. You can clear it at any time from your browser's Site Settings or by reinstalling the PWA.
We may eventually add a privacy-respecting analytics service (Plausible or Umami) to count tool views in aggregate. If/when we do, we will update this page beforeturning it on, the analytics will be cookieless and respect Do Not Track, and there will be no individual user tracking. The architecture is already in place; it just isn't wired up yet.
