Student Time Table Maker
Global Cookie & Storage Policy
Last updated: June 2026
This Cookie and Storage Policy explains how Student Time Table Maker uses cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website. It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.
1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Local Storage (HTML5 Storage) is an industry-standard technology that allows a website or application to store and retrieve data locally on a person's computer or mobile device. Unlike cookies, local storage data is not automatically transmitted to the server with every HTTP request.
2. How and Why We Use These Technologies
We classify our usage of these technologies into three main categories:
A. Strictly Necessary / Essential Storage
Because our platform does not require user accounts, we rely on Local Storage to save your customized timetables, personalized subject colors, and UI state (such as dark mode toggles). Without Local Storage, the core "Save Current" and "Restore" features of our application would completely break, and you would lose your schedule every time you closed the tab.
B. Analytics and Performance Cookies
We use third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to collect aggregated, anonymous data about how visitors interact with our website. This helps us understand which timetable templates are most popular, identify website bugs, and improve overall performance.
C. Advertising and Targeting Cookies
To keep the platform 100% free, we partner with third-party advertising networks (like Google AdSense). These networks use cookies to serve ads that are relevant to your interests based on your browsing history across the internet.
3. Third-Party Cookies
In some special cases, we also use cookies provided by trusted third parties. The following section details which third-party cookies you might encounter through this site:
- Google AdSense: Uses a DoubleClick cookie to serve more relevant ads across the web and limit the number of times that a given ad is shown to you.
- Content Delivery Networks (CDNs): Services like Cloudflare may place necessary security cookies to identify malicious visitors and mitigate DDoS attacks.
4. Your Rights and How to Manage Cookies
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in your web browser.
To clear your Local Storage (which will permanently delete your saved timetables), you can use the "Clear Browsing Data" functionality in your browser, or simply click the "Trash" icon on individual saved items within our app.
For more information on how to manage or disable cookies, please visit aboutcookies.org or the help documentation for your specific web browser.
