1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website saves in your browser when you visit it. They let the site remember your device and your choices between pages or visits. “First-party” cookies are set by MP3toWAV.io. “Third-party” cookies are set by other companies, such as our analytics and advertising partners.
We also use similar technologies, such as your browser’s local storage, which works like a cookie but stays on your device and is not sent to our servers with each request. In this policy, “cookies” includes these technologies.
2. Cookies We Use
Strictly necessary
These are needed for the website to work and to remember your cookie choices. They cannot be switched off in our cookie settings.
Preferences
These remember choices you make, such as your output format and quality settings, so you don’t have to set them again on your next visit. They are stored in your browser’s local storage.
Analytics
These help us understand how many people visit the site, which pages they use and where they come from, so we can improve it. We use Google Analytics, and we set these cookies only if you allow them where consent is required.
Advertising
These are set by advertising partners such as Google AdSense to show ads, limit how often you see the same ad, measure ad performance and, if you allow it, show ads based on your interests. They may track your browsing across other websites.

Cookie settings. When you first visit, our cookie banner lets you accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can change your choice at any time with the Cookie settings link in the footer.
Browser settings. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Blocking all cookies may stop some parts of the website from working properly. Here’s how to manage cookies in common browsers:
Advertising opt-outs. You can turn off personalized ads from Google at Google Ads Settings, and from many other companies at aboutads.info or youronlinechoices.eu.
Analytics opt-out. You can stop Google Analytics from collecting your data by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Global Privacy Control. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat it as a request to opt out of advertising cookies used for targeted ads in that browser.
