Plain English Summary: We use cookies to serve ads (Google AdSense), analyze traffic (Google Analytics), and remember your preferences. You can opt out of personalized ads at any time. We never sell your data.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember information about your visit — like your preferences, what you clicked, and how long you stayed — to make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you.
Cookies cannot access other files on your device, cannot execute programs, and cannot deliver viruses. They simply store small pieces of information that websites use to improve your experience.
AICompare (aicompare.online) uses cookies for four purposes: delivering advertising through Google AdSense, analyzing traffic patterns through Google Analytics, remembering your display preferences, and maintaining site security.
These cookies are necessary for the website to function. Without them, core features like page navigation and security protections cannot work. They do not store personally identifiable information.
