This Cookie Policy explains how freepdf2word uses cookies and similar technologies on freepdf2word.com. It should be read with the Privacy policy.
A cookie is a small text file stored on your device. Some cookies are essential for the site to work. Others remember a choice such as language.
Cookies we use
| Name / type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session cookie (PHPSESSID) | Keeps you signed in while you use the site and protects forms (CSRF). | Until you close the browser, unless “remember me” applies |
| site_lang | Remembers the language you picked. | Up to about 13 months |
| Guest / fair-use cookie | Helps apply daily page limits for visitors who are not logged in. | Up to 1 year |
| Cloudflare Turnstile (if enabled) | Checks that a visitor is human before some guest actions. Set by Cloudflare, not used to market to you. | As described by Cloudflare |
| Stripe (Premium checkout) | Needed to complete a paid subscription. Stripe may set its own cookies on checkout pages. | See Stripe’s cookie policy |
| Advertising cookies (only if ads are on) | If we show ads, the ad partner may set cookies to measure or personalize ads. Premium members may see fewer or no ads. | Set by the ad partner |
Strictly necessary
Session, security, and load-balancing cookies are required to run accounts, uploads, and payments. The site cannot work correctly without them. These do not require extra consent under typical EU cookie rules.
Preferences
The language cookie remembers your choice so every page stays in that language. You can change language at any time in the site language control.
Analytics and ads
If we later add a usage-analytics cookie, we will list it here. If advertising is enabled in site settings, third-party ad scripts may set their own cookies. You can block those in your browser; some ad blocks may break the ad slots only, not the tools.
How to control cookies
- Use your browser settings to delete or block cookies. Blocking all cookies will sign you out and may stop uploads from working.
- Log out to end an account session.
- For Stripe or Cloudflare cookies, see those companies’ own help pages.
Changes
We will update this page if we add or remove cookies. Last updated: 25 August 2026.
