Cookies Policy
Last updated: January 2026.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to remember your preferences (e.g. language or region), and to give the site owners insight into how visitors use the site (e.g. which pages are most popular). Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (“first-party cookies”) or by a third party (e.g. an analytics or advertising provider) (“third-party cookies”). They can also be classified by how long they remain on your device (“session” cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or “persistent” cookies, which remain for a set period or until you delete them).
2. Does ArticleForge Use Cookies?
Yes. ArticleForge may use a limited set of cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) to provide and secure our free AI article writer. Our use is minimal and focused on making the service work correctly and safely.
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function. They may be used to:
- Apply rate limiting (e.g. to prevent abuse and ensure fair use of the article generator).
- Maintain security (e.g. to help detect and prevent fraudulent or automated requests).
- Remember temporary preferences during your session (e.g. so the generator works as you expect).
Because these cookies are strictly necessary, they typically do not require your consent under laws such as the GDPR, but you can still control cookies through your browser settings (see below). Disabling them may affect how the site works.
2.2 Functional Cookies
We may use functional cookies to remember choices you make (e.g. preferred tone or word count) so your next visit is more convenient. These are not essential for the basic operation of the site. If we use them, we will describe them here and, where required by law, ask for your consent.
2.3 Analytics and Performance
We do not currently use third-party analytics or advertising cookies on the core article generator. If we introduce analytics in the future (e.g. to understand how many people use our free AI writing tool and which features are most used), we will update this policy and, where required by law (e.g. in the EEA or UK), we will ask for your consent before activating non-essential analytics cookies.
3. How Long Do Cookies Last?
Session cookies are removed when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period (e.g. days or months) or until you delete them. When we use persistent cookies, we will keep the retention period as short as necessary for the stated purpose.
4. How Can You Manage or Disable Cookies?
You can control and/or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View which cookies are stored and delete them individually or in bulk.
- Block third-party cookies.
- Block cookies from specific or all sites.
If you block or delete cookies, some parts of our website (including the article generator) may not work as intended. For more information on how to manage cookies in your browser, see your browser’s help section or visit resources such as aboutcookies.org.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or in the law. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will be revised when we make changes. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
