Cookie Policy
This page explains the cookies and browser storage used on Metadata World, what each one is for, and how you can control them.
What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file a site stores in your browser. Related technologies such as localStorage and IndexedDB work the same way for our purposes: they keep small pieces of data on your device between visits. We treat all of them under this policy.
Essential storage
These are required for the tools to work and cannot be switched off from within the site:
- A signed, HttpOnly session cookie that authorises calls from your browser to our AI proxy. It contains no personal data and expires automatically.
- Browser storage holding your studio settings, projects, generated metadata and — if you choose to keep it — your AI provider key.
- Your theme choice (light or dark) and your cookie-banner choice.
- If you sign in, an authentication token issued by our identity provider so you stay signed in.
Advertising cookies
This site may display ads served by Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites, and to measure ad performance. Third-party vendors and ad networks other than Google may serve ads here as well and may use their own cookies.
You can control personalised advertising at any time:
- Google Ads Settings — turn off personalised ads from Google.
- aboutads.info/choices — opt out of many other ad networks at once.
- How Google uses cookies in advertising
Your consent
When you first visit, a banner asks you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. Your choice is stored in your browser so the banner does not reappear. To change it, clear this site's data in your browser settings and the banner will show again on your next visit.
Removing cookies
Every modern browser lets you view, block, and delete cookies for a single site. Clearing site data for Metadata World removes all local settings, saved projects and any stored provider key. Blocking essential cookies will stop the AI tools from running.
