Cookie policy
Last updated: September 27, 2026
The short version
Doneload sets one cookie to keep you logged in and one to remember your cookie choice. Visits are counted with Umami, a self-hosted analytics tool that sets no cookies and stores no personal data. There are no ads today, so no advertising cookies are set. Files processed in your browser never leave your device.
Categories
- Necessary (always on): the login session and your cookie choice. The site cannot work without them, so they need no consent.
- Analytics (on by default, you can switch it off): Umami page views and tool usage events. Umami sets no cookies and keeps no IP address, so it runs until you say no. When you switch it off, nothing is sent from your browser to the analytics server.
- Advertising (off until you switch it on): Google AdSense. Not in use today. If ads start, the banner asks you again before any ad script loads.
Cookies we set
| Name | Purpose | Lifetime | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
session (cookie) | Keeps you logged in, ties the jobs you run to your visit, and protects forms against cross-site requests. Only set once you log in or run a server job. | Until you close the browser, or 30 days after you log in | Necessary |
bw_consent (cookie and browser storage) | Remembers your cookie choice, so the banner does not come back on every page. | 180 days | Necessary |
Browser storage (not cookies)
| Name | Purpose | Lifetime | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
bw_ft (local storage) | Where your first visit came from: the referring site and any utm_ campaign tags in the link. Sent with the signup and checkout counts so we know which channels work. Never sent anywhere else, and deleted when you switch analytics off. | Until you clear site data | Analytics |
umami.disabled (local storage) | Only present if you set it yourself; Umami then ignores your visits. We never set it. | Until you clear site data | Analytics |
bw-handoff (IndexedDB) | Carries files you dropped on the home page over to the tool page. Stays in your browser and is emptied as soon as the tool page picks the files up. | Seconds; ignored after 10 minutes | Necessary |
Analytics
We use Umami, hosted on our own server in Germany at doneload.app/stats. It records the page, the referring site, the browser and operating system, the country, the screen size and the language of a visit, plus which tools were run, how many files, how large, how long it took and whether it worked. It does not set cookies, does not fingerprint, and stores no IP address. Because no personal data is stored and nothing is read from your device beyond what every web request carries, it does not need consent under the Dutch Telecommunications Act, but you can still switch it off in the .
Advertising
Doneload shows no ads at the moment and sets no advertising cookies. If that changes, the banner asks before any ad script loads, and this page will list exactly what is set.
Third parties
- Log in with Google is a plain link to Google's sign-in page. No Google script runs on Doneload; Google sets its own cookies on its own pages only if you use it.
- Mollie handles payments on its own checkout pages and sets its own cookies there. No Mollie script runs on Doneload. See Mollie's privacy statement.
- Fonts, icons and the file processing libraries are served from our own server. No embeds, no social widgets, no tracking pixels.
Change your choice
Use Change cookie settings in the footer of any page. Clearing this site's data in your browser also resets it, and the banner will ask again.
