Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Get Teleprompter Online uses cookies and similar technologies. It complements our Privacy Policy.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help sites remember information about your visit, such as preferences, and enable features like advertising measurement.

Cookies we use

• Essential storage: We use the browser's local storage to remember your teleprompter scripts, settings, and theme preference. This data stays on your device and is always enabled.
• Advertising cookies (Google AdSense): We plan to serve ads through Google AdSense; when enabled, Google and its partners may set cookies to serve and measure ads. Google may use advertising cookies to personalize ads based on your activity across websites.
• Analytics cookies (Google Analytics / GA4): We use Google Analytics to collect aggregate information about how visitors use the site (pages visited, time on site, device type), which helps us understand and improve the site.
• Consent record: We store your cookie-consent choices on your device so the banner isn't shown until it needs a refresh.

The consent banner groups these into three categories — Strictly necessary, Analytics, and Advertising. Each category has an expandable Cookie details list showing the actual cookie/storage names, who sets them, what they do, and how long they last.

Google AdSense

We plan to display ads through Google AdSense. When ads are enabled, Google's advertising technology uses cookies to decide which ads to show and to measure ad performance. You can learn more about how Google uses cookies at Google's Cookie Policy.

To opt out of personalized advertising: visit Google Ads Settings or www.aboutads.info.

Google Analytics (GA4)

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site in aggregate. GA4 associates events with anonymized identifiers and uses cookies to distinguish unique visitors and sessions. To opt out of Google Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. You can learn about how Google uses this data at Google's partner page.

Consent by region

This is a static site with no application server, so we estimate your region from your device's timezone and apply the consent model the data-protection law of your country demands. In practice this means Google analytics and advertising tags never load without either your explicit consent or a clear, always-available way to opt out. The two models are:

• Consent model — applied in every country except the United States. Advertising and analytics stay off until you choose. This is what the law requires for non-essential cookies and advertising measurement in the EU/EEA (GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive), the United Kingdom (UK GDPR and PECR, with the UK Data (Use and Access) Act applying from February 2026), Switzerland (FADP), Brazil (LGPD), India (Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 and its 2025 rules), China (PIPL), South Korea (PIPA), Japan (APPI and the Telecom Business Act data-transmission rule), Canada (PIPEDA and Quebec's Law 25), Mexico (LFPDPPP), Chile (Law No. 21.719), Turkey (KVKK), and the rest of the world's data-protection regimes (Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, South Africa POPIA, Nigeria NDPA, Kenya, Egypt, Israel, Saudi Arabia PDPL, UAE PDPL, Russia, and others). Nothing is loaded until you choose. The banner opens with a plain-language summary and three options — Accept all, Manage options, and Reject all — where Accept all is the visually prominent path. Manage options opens a per-category panel where you can turn Analytics and Advertising on independently and expand Cookie details for each. Strictly necessary storage stays on so the tool works. Your choice is stored with a timestamp: a Reject all is remembered for one day, after which we ask again, while an accepted or granular choice is kept for six months.
• Opt-out model — United States only. US state privacy laws — California CCPA/CPRA, Virginia VCDPA, Colorado CPA, Connecticut CTDPA, and the other state laws effective across 2023–2026 — regulate targeted advertising and the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information by opt-out rather than opt-in consent. So advertising and analytics may load while the notice is shown, and choosing Reject all stops them from loading or reporting from that point on and saves your choice on your device for one day before we ask again. The banner has no × button, and closing it with Escape is never recorded as consent or an opt-out.

Timezone detection is imperfect. If your timezone is unknown or ambiguous we use the stricter consent model by default, and you can change your choices at any time from the footer.

Managing consent

• You can review, change, or withdraw your choices at any time from the Cookie settings link in the page footer, which re-opens the banner.
• When you turn off a category that was previously allowed, the cookies assigned to that category are removed from your browser.
• In a consent-model region, an accepted or granular choice is stored for six months, after which the banner asks for fresh consent (as recommended by the UK Information Commissioner's Office). A Reject all is stored for one day, then we ask again — so a rejection is never silently permanent.
• We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) opt-out signal where your browser sends it; when we detect it we do not load advertising or analytics and show an on-screen acknowledgment.
• Most browsers also let you block or delete cookies through their privacy settings.
• Clearing all site data will remove your consent record and any locally saved scripts, so only clear this site's data when you no longer need the scripts it has stored.
• Blocking essential storage may limit tool functionality. Rejecting advertising and analytics turns ads and usage tracking off from that point on — the tool still works.

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

We plan to use Google AdSense, which could serve personalized ads based on activity across websites, and we use Google Analytics. Under California's CCPA/CPRA and the other US state privacy laws, this can be treated as "selling" or "sharing" personal information for advertising, so US visitors have the right to opt out.

You can opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for advertising at any time:

• Click Reject all (or turn Advertising off under Manage options) in the consent banner, opening it from the Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link in the page footer. We record your choice on your device.
• Turn on the Global Privacy Control in your browser; we honor it as an opt-out when we detect it.
• Use Google Ads Settings or www.aboutads.info.

We do not sell your personal information in the traditional sense — money does not change hands. The prompter does not intentionally upload script text; Remote Control exchanges only limited playback state and script-derived cues, and its connection providers may process connection metadata as described above. The opt-out above covers advertising personalization and attribution. Opting out is as easy as accepting: both are one click in a banner of equal-weight buttons, and your choice is remembered.

The trade-off

The teleprompter works fully with essential storage only; it keeps your scripts and settings locally on your device. In consent-model regions, advertising and analytics stay off until you accept them; in opt-out regions they load unless you reject them. If you ever change your mind, the Cookie settings link in the footer lets you adjust your choices granularly without losing your scripts.
