Cookie Preferences
The complete list of what we keep in your browser — and a switch for the advertising we do not yet run.
In short
- We currently set no optional cookies at all. No advertising, no analytics, no third-party trackers — there is nothing on this site for a consent banner to ask you about.
- What we do keep is a sign-in cookie, and your own work saved in your own browser so you do not lose it when a tab closes.
- Your documents are saved on your device, not on our servers. That is why the list below is longer than you might expect — and why none of it reaches us.
- You can record an advertising preference now. It will be honoured the moment advertising exists, and until then it changes nothing.
1. What is set right now
There are no advertising cookies, no analytics and no third-party trackers on this site today. Google AdSense is not running — no ad script loads on any page. You can verify this yourself: open your browser's developer tools, look at the network requests on any page here, and you will find no request to an advertising or analytics domain.
Many sites show a consent banner that asks permission for cookies they have already set, or for cookies they do not set at all. We would rather show you the actual list and let you check it.
What is set falls into three groups: one essential cookie that keeps you signed in, your saved work, which stays in your browser, and small preferences like your theme choice. Section 3 lists every single item.
2. Your choices
The free plans are intended to be supported by advertising eventually. When that happens, ad cookies will be set only on free plans, only by Google AdSense, and only where you have agreed. Pro accounts will never load the advertising code at all.
You can record your choice now. Storing it early means the preference is already in place on the day advertising launches, rather than you meeting a banner.
Your choice is stored in your own browser under the key aiwa_consent_v1. It is not sent to us, is not attached to your account, and does not follow you to another device or browser. If you clear your browser data it will be forgotten, and the safe default — no advertising cookies — applies again.
3. Everything this site keeps in your browser
The complete list. Nothing here is hidden in a category called “functional”.
Cookies
| Name | What it does | Type | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
aiwa_session | Keeps you signed in. Set by our server as HttpOnly with SameSite=Lax, so page scripts cannot read it and it is not sent on cross-site requests. | Essential | Until sign-out or expiry |
That is the only cookie. There is no advertising, analytics or third-party cookie on this site today.
Local storage — your work
Every tool keeps its working document in your browser so that closing a tab, refreshing, or a crash does not lose what you were writing. These never leave your device. They are the reason we can promise your documents are not stored on our servers — the copy lives with you.
| Key | What it holds |
|---|---|
aiwa_grammar_doc_v2, aiwa_grammar_doc_v2_fmt | Your Grammar Checker document and its formatting |
aiwa_para_state_v2 | Paraphraser working text |
aiwa_sum_state_v2 | Summarizer working text |
aiwa_tr_state_v2 | Translator working text |
aiwa_tone_state_v2 | Tone Changer working text |
aiwa_hm_state_v2 | Humanizer working text |
aiwa_dt_state_v2 | AI Detector working text |
aiwa_email_state_v2, aiwa_email_state_v3 | Email Writer draft and settings |
aiwa_counter_doc_v1 | Word Counter text (this tool runs entirely in your browser) |
aiwa_writer_brief_v3, aiwa_writer_thread_v3 | AI Writer brief and conversation |
aiwa_humanizer_handoff_v1 | Text passed from one tool to the Humanizer |
Local storage — preferences and settings
| Key | What it holds |
|---|---|
aiwa_theme | Light, dark or system appearance |
aiwa_tools_rail_collapsed | Whether the tools sidebar is collapsed |
aiwa_grammar_prefs_v2, aiwa_counter_prefs_v1, aiwa_writer_prefs_v3 | Per-tool settings you have chosen |
aiwa_user_cache | A cached copy of your own account record — name, email, plan — so pages can render before the server responds. Refreshed from your account, cleared on sign-out. |
aiwa_announce_hide, aiwa_home_promo_hide | Notices you dismissed, so they do not reappear |
aiwa_login_guard_v1 | A local cooldown after repeated failed sign-in attempts |
aiwa_drafts_pointer_v1 | A small pointer to the most recent entry in the drafts database |
aiwa_consent_v1 | Your advertising choice from section 2, if you have recorded one |
Session storage — cleared when you close the tab
| Key | What it holds |
|---|---|
aiwa_handoff, aiwa_handoff_text | Text typed into the homepage box, carried to the tool you picked, then discarded |
IndexedDB — your drafts library
| Database | What it holds |
|---|---|
aiwa-drafts | Snapshots of documents you have worked on, so the Drafts page can show your history. Stored only in this browser. We cannot see it and cannot recover it for you. |
4. Clearing what is stored
You can remove everything this site has put in your browser, at any time, without an account and without asking us.
What this deletes: your saved drafts library, every tool's working document, your preferences, and your recorded advertising choice. It cannot be undone, and we cannot restore any of it — we never had a copy.
It does not delete your account or anything held on our servers. To delete your account, use the Danger zone on your account page.
5. Browser-level controls
You can also work at the browser level, which covers every site rather than just this one.
- Block or delete cookies in your browser's privacy settings. Blocking the essential cookie will sign you out and prevent guest limits from working correctly, but the writing tools themselves will still run.
- Clear site data for aiwritingassistant.net from your browser's site-settings panel — equivalent to the button in section 4.
- Private or incognito windows discard everything when the window closes, including your drafts.
- Ad personalisation across Google's services can be controlled in your Google Ad Settings, independently of anything we do.
6. Questions
The Cookie Policy explains the purpose of each category in more detail, and the Privacy Policy covers what we hold on our servers, which is a different and much shorter list.
If something on this page does not match what you find in your own browser, please tell us — that would be a bug worth fixing. info@aiwritingassistant.net
