1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to store information. They are commonly used to remember login sessions, user preferences, and to track behaviour across websites for advertising purposes.
Browser local storage is a related but separate mechanism. Like cookies, it stores data on your device; unlike cookies, local storage data is never automatically sent to a server with every request, and it does not expire unless explicitly deleted.
2. Our Approach to Cookies
My Invoice Generator does not set any first-party cookies on your device. We deliberately chose local storage over cookies for storing your invoice data because it offers stronger privacy guarantees - the data never leaves your browser unless you explicitly export or download it.
This means My Invoice Generator operates without the need for a cookie consent banner under most interpretations of ePrivacy/GDPR regulations, since we do not use tracking, analytics, or advertising cookies.
3. Local Storage We Use
My Invoice Generator stores the following items in your browser's local storage. All items are stored under the origin my-invoice-generator.com and are not accessible to other websites.
None of these local storage items contain personally identifiable information beyond the content you have explicitly typed into the invoice form (company names, addresses, etc.). None of this data is ever transmitted to our servers.
4. Third-Party Requests
When you visit My Invoice Generator, your browser makes requests to the following third-party services to load fonts and libraries. These providers may set their own cookies or use other tracking technologies, subject to their own policies.
Google Fonts

Purpose: Loads the Inter font used in the interface and generated PDFs
Cookies set: Google may set cookies for analytics and abuse prevention

Privacy policy: cloudflare.com/privacypolicy
We have no control over the cookies set by these third parties. If you wish to block them, you can use a browser extension such as uBlock Origin or configure your browser's cookie settings. Note that blocking these requests may prevent fonts from loading correctly or disable PDF generation.
