Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to the website owners.

Cookies help us understand how you use our website, remember your preferences, and improve your experience on Random Number Generator (randomnumbergenerator.co).

  • Improve website performance and user experience
  • Remember your cookie consent preferences
  • Provide analytics and measure the effectiveness of our service

4. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager

4.1 Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to analyze how visitors use our website. Google Analytics collects information such as:

  • How often users visit our site
  • What pages they visit and in what sequence
  • How long they stay on each page
  • What site referred them to our website
  • General geographic location (country/city level)
  • Browser and device information

Google Analytics uses both first-party cookies (set by our domain) and may use third-party cookies. The information collected is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

4.2 Google Tag Manager

We use Google Tag Manager to manage website tags and tracking codes efficiently. Google Tag Manager itself does not set cookies that store personally identifiable information, but it enables other tags (like Google Analytics) that may set cookies.

Google Tag Manager helps us:

  • Deploy and update analytics tags efficiently
  • Manage tracking codes without modifying website code
  • Control when and how tags are triggered

First-party cookies are set directly by our website (randomnumbergenerator.co). We use first-party cookies to remember your cookie consent preferences.
