Clear choices, useful tools.
UsefulGrid separates essential storage from optional analytics and advertising so you can control their use in your browser.
Last updated: October 27, 2026
Essential storage
UsefulGrid stores your cookie choices in your browser under usefulgrid-consent-v1. If browser storage is blocked, the choice is kept only for the current page visit. This preference is necessary to remember whether you accepted or rejected optional services. It does not contain your tool inputs.
Analytics
UsefulGrid includes the Google tag for measurement ID G-89DBWZYVT2 with analytics storage denied by default. The tag downloads before a choice; Google can receive connection data and cookieless consent signals. If you allow analytics, Google Analytics may use cookies such as _ga to measure visits and page usage. We use page and tool-event counts to understand performance and decide which tools to improve. Tool-event parameters exclude entered text, filenames and document contents.
Display advertising
If you allow advertising, UsefulGrid loads display advertisements supplied by Advertica through its ad-delivery domain, data527.click. Advertica and participating advertising partners may use cookies, local storage or similar technologies to deliver and measure ads. Tool inputs and uploaded files are not intentionally supplied to Advertica.
Change your choices
You can accept, reject or change optional services at any time. Rejecting them does not prevent you from using the tools. Turning previously enabled advertising off reloads the page to stop loaded ad scripts, so save results first. Changing a choice cannot erase data already received by a provider.
Browser controls
You can also delete cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Doing so removes the saved choice, and UsefulGrid will ask again on your next visit.
