Advertising cookies (third parties)
To keep the compressors free, some pages, such as the compressors themselves, the presets and the FAQ, show ads from Google AdSense. On those pages, Google and its advertising partners may set cookies or use similar identifiers to:
- show ads, and limit how often you see the same ad;
- measure how ads perform and prevent fraud;
- show personalised ads based on your interests, only with your consent where the law requires it.
Examples include Google's __gads and __gpi cookies. Google's consent tool also stores your consent choices, for example in cookies named FCCDCF and FCNEC. The exact cookies depend on your region, your choices and Google's systems. Learn more in Google's advertising technologies policy.
Pages without ads, including the guides, the contact page and our legal pages, don't load advertising code and set no advertising cookies.
