Cookie Policy
What browser storage QueryTube uses and what still needs verification. Last updated 6 November 2026.
What cookies are
Cookies are small pieces of data stored by a browser. Similar technologies include local storage, which stays in the browser until removed. Some are needed for sign-in or security; others may be used by third parties when their content loads.
Current use
QueryTube uses session cookies for account authentication and browser local storage for the optional light or dark theme. Cloudflare Turnstile may load for bot checks. The privacy-enhanced YouTube player loads only after you choose to play an embedded video; YouTube may then process browser data. The language selection is in the URL rather than a language cookie.
Advertising and analytics
Google AdSense and analytics are not currently active. If advertising is introduced, this page will be updated with the advertising technologies and the applicable consent choices before they are enabled. Where Google ads are served to visitors in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, QueryTube will need to assess Google's certified CMP and TCF requirements.
Cookie inventory and choices
A live cookie scan is pending, so exact cookie names, providers, and lifetimes are not listed yet. We will add the verified inventory after testing signed-out, signed-in, payment, bot-check, and video-player journeys. You can clear or block cookies in your browser, but blocking session cookies can prevent sign-in. You can clear the theme preference through browser storage controls or change the theme on the site. If optional cookies are introduced, we will provide an appropriate way to manage consent.
More information
See the Privacy Policy or email contact@querytube.com. We will update this page and its date as the verified inventory or practices change.
