Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device (computer, phone, tablet). Cookies can be session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (kept until they expire or you delete them).

We may also use similar technologies, such as local storage, session storage, pixels, and SDKs (together, “cookies and similar technologies”), depending on the features enabled on the Website.

Advertising: displaying ads and measuring ad performance if/when advertising is enabled.

If you withdraw consent, it will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal.

5) Third-party cookies and services

The Website may use third-party services for analytics, advertising, or embedded content. These third parties may set cookies or use similar technologies under their own policies.

Common examples (depending on configuration):

Analytics providers (to understand Website usage and improve the service).
Advertising partners (to display ads and measure ad performance), such as Google AdSense or other ad networks.
Content delivery and security providers (to improve performance and protect against abuse).

If third-party services are enabled, information associated with cookies (and similar technologies) may be processed by those providers. We recommend reviewing their policies for details on how they use your data.

6) International visitors and legal bases

SnapConvert is accessible globally. Depending on your location, different privacy and cookie rules may apply.

EEA/UK/Switzerland

For non-essential cookies (e.g., analytics and advertising), we rely on your consent where required by applicable laws (including the ePrivacy rules). For strictly necessary cookies, we rely on our legitimate interest in operating a secure and functional website and/or where such cookies are required to provide the service you request.

Other jurisdictions

We provide cookie controls and honor applicable requirements in your jurisdiction to the extent they apply. For details about how we handle personal data (including online identifiers), please review our Privacy Policy.

If advertising cookies are enabled, some jurisdictions (including California) may treat certain advertising-related disclosures as “selling” or “sharing” personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. Where applicable, you can opt out by:

Using the cookie banner / consent tool (where available) to disable advertising cookies; and/or
Enabling browser-based opt-out signals, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC), where supported.

If you do not see these options, it may mean advertising cookies are not currently active on the Website, or a CMP has not been enabled yet.
