Privacy First

Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 1, 2026 • Last Updated: 2026

1. Our Fundamental Commitment

At randomnamegenerator.dev, privacy is not an afterthought—it is foundational to how our application was engineered. Our name generation engine operates entirely client-side inside your browser. We do not require accounts, we do not use a backend database, and we do not collect or transmit the names you generate or search for.

2. Information We Do NOT Collect

  • We do not collect personal names, email addresses, phone numbers, or passwords.
  • We do not transmit generated names, custom surnames, or selected generator criteria to any server.
  • We do not sell, rent, or monetize your creative naming selections or personal data.

3. Browser Local Storage (localStorage)

To provide convenient features like saving favorite names and restoring previous generation history without forcing you to create an account, our website utilizes standard browser localStorage:

  • Favorites: Stores names you explicitly heart for easy reference.
  • History: Temporarily retains your last 10 generation runs.

This data lives strictly on your physical device. You can clear this data at any moment directly within the tool using “Clear All Favorites” or by clearing your browser cache.

4. Standard Web Server Logs

Like virtually all web hosts, our hosting infrastructure (Vercel) may log standard, anonymized technical telemetry such as IP addresses, browser user-agents, referring URLs, and timestamps strictly for DDoS mitigation, system health monitoring, and routing. These logs are never correlated with generated names.

5. Third-Party Advertising & Cookies

To keep our service 100% free, we may display non-intrusive banner advertisements in designated areas outside the core generator. Third-party ad networks (such as Google AdSense) may use cookies to serve advertisements based on your visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings.
