Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to RandomizeTools (randomizetools.com). We respect your privacy and are committed to transparent data practices. This Privacy Policy explains how technical information, browser storage, cookies, and user-entered tool data are handled when you access and use our website and utilities.

2. Information You Enter into Tools

RandomizeTools provides utility calculators and generators such as our Random Number Generator, Random Name Picker, Random Winner Picker, and List Randomizer.

Inputs such as participant names, item lists, custom numeric ranges, wheel labels, and team rosters are designed to be processed locally within your web browser. RandomizeTools does not intentionally transmit, log, or store your custom input lists on our servers for the purpose of generating results.

3. Local Browser Storage

To enhance usability, certain tools may use your browser’s localStorage or sessionStorage to temporarily preserve:

• Recent generation history (e.g. recent coin tosses or picked names)
• Saved custom options or generator configuration preferences
• User interface state across page reloads

This data resides solely on your physical device. You can clear this stored data at any time by clicking the in-tool “Clear History” buttons or through your web browser’s privacy settings.

4. Server Logs & Technical Infrastructure

Like most web hosting environments and Content Delivery Networks (CDNs), our hosting infrastructure may automatically receive and record basic technical metadata when a page is requested. This may include:

• Internet Protocol (IP) address
• Browser type, language, and operating system
• Referring web page and requested URL path
• Date and time timestamp of the request

This technical data is processed strictly for system administration, DDoS mitigation, network security, and ensuring reliable server performance.

5. Cookies

RandomizeTools does not require tracking cookies for core tool operation. However, third-party services (such as future analytics or advertising providers) may deploy cookies or similar tracking technologies in accordance with applicable laws and consent mechanisms. You can adjust cookie preferences through your browser settings.

6. Analytics

We use Google Analytics (Google tag / gtag.js) to collect aggregated, anonymized website traffic and usage statistics (such as page visits, referral sources, and approximate device types). This helps us understand user preferences and optimize tool performance. Google Analytics may set cookies to distinguish unique sessions. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using browser privacy extensions or Google’s Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

7. Third-Party Advertising

RandomizeTools may display advertisements in the future to support free tool operations. Third-party advertising partners (such as Google and certified ad networks) may use cookies or web beacons to serve ads based on prior visits to this or other websites. When required by applicable jurisdiction, consent banners will provide granular controls over personalized advertising.

8. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to external websites or resources. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of third-party websites.

9. Children’s Privacy

RandomizeTools provides general-audience utility software suitable for educational, personal, and professional use. We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal identifiable information from children.

10. Data Security

We employ industry-standard HTTPS encryption to protect data in transit between your browser and our hosting infrastructure. While we strive to protect website operations using commercial best practices, no internet transmission or electronic storage method can guarantee absolute security.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect technological advancements, legal requirements, or adjustments to our services. Changes will take effect immediately upon posting to this URL with an updated revision date.
