What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies, such as local storage, work in a comparable way. This policy explains what PortugueseToEnglish.net stores on your device and how to control it. It complements the Privacy Policy.

What this site uses

1. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics)

The site uses Google Analytics 4 to measure, in aggregate, which pages are visited and how people use the site. Google Analytics sets these first-party cookies:

• _ga — distinguishes browsers; expires after 2 years.
• _ga_<container-id> — keeps session state; expires after 2 years.

See how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

2. Local storage for translator settings

The translator saves your chosen direction and Portuguese variant (Brazil or Portugal) in local storage under the key pte-settings-v1, so they are remembered on your next visit. This stays in your browser and is never sent anywhere.

Advertising

The site does not show ads and does not use advertising cookies.

How to control cookies

• All major browsers let you view, block and delete cookies and local storage: see the help pages for Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge.
• To stop Google Analytics on every site, install the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
• Blocking cookies does not stop the translator from working.

Changes to this policy

If the site starts using other cookies, this page will be updated. The "Last reviewed" date shows the most recent change.
