Privacy Policy

1. Zero-Knowledge Client-Side Architecture

Unlike many online brainstorming portals that route your inputs through remote database servers, our primary generator runs on a client-side architecture.

When you select categories, adjust quantity sliders, spin the randomizer wheel, or generate complex adjective-noun pairs, all combinatorial computations occur natively within your personal web browser using client-side JavaScript.

We do not log, record, monitor, or transmit your generated ideas, creative prompts, or sketching concepts to external servers. Your private brainstorming sessions, confidential novel worldbuilding notes, and proprietary game development mechanics remain strictly confidential on your own machine.

2. Browser LocalStorage & Data Retention Lifecycle

To provide convenient productivity features without demanding user accounts or collecting personal email addresses, our tool utilizes the standard web browser localStorage API.

• Saved Objects & Starred Items: When you click the "⭐ Save" or "Copy List" button, the text string of your chosen object is saved locally in your browser storage. This data is never synchronized to our servers or accessible to third parties.
• Visual Theme Preference: When you toggle between Light Mode and Dark Mode, your preference is preserved locally (theme: 'dark' or theme: 'light') to maintain visual consistency across page transitions.

Data Lifecycle & Control: Because localStorage resides exclusively on your personal device, you hold total sovereignty over it. You can clear this saved data at any moment by clicking "Clear Saved Items" within the tool UI, or by clearing your browser cache and website cookies in your browser settings.

3. Standard Server Logs & Diagnostic Metrics

Like standard commercial cloud hosting providers, our web servers automatically log non-personally identifiable diagnostic data when a web page is requested. This information includes:

• Internet Protocol (IP) addresses (truncated or anonymized where required by regional regulations).
• Browser version, operating system environment, and device platform classification.
• Referring website URLs and exit pages.
• Timestamps of requests and HTTP response status codes.

This diagnostic telemetry is used exclusively to maintain server uptime, mitigate distributed denial-of-service threats, identify broken internal links, and optimize server response speeds. It is never linked to individual user identities.

4. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising Cookies

To keep Random Object Generator 100% free and publicly accessible without subscription fees, we display programmatic digital advertisements provided by Google AdSense.

Google is a third-party vendor that uses cookies—including the DoubleClick DART cookie—to serve relevant ads based upon visitors' browsing interactions on this website and other websites across the internet.

In regions governed by the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or UK Data Protection Act, we implement Google Consent Mode standards. Where visitors decline personalized cookies, non-personalized contextual ads are served that do not rely on tracking user interests over time.

5. Information Submitted via Contact Channels

If you choose to communicate with our team via our Contact Form or direct department email addresses, we receive your name, email address, and the specific text of your message.

We retain this information solely to respond to your specific question, troubleshoot reported technical issues, or evaluate suggested dictionary terms. We never subscribe contact inquiries to marketing email newsletters without explicit opt-in consent, nor do we sell, rent, or trade your contact records to commercial data brokers.

6. Children's Online Privacy Protection (COPPA Compliance)

Safeguarding the online privacy of young creators and students is paramount. Random Object Generator is designed to be family-friendly and is frequently utilized in primary and secondary schools as an educational brainstorming resource.

We do not knowingly collect, solicit, or store Personal Identifiable Information from children under 13 years of age. If a parent, teacher, or guardian believes that a minor has submitted personal details through our contact form, please notify us immediately at privacy@randomobjecttool.com so we can promptly expunge the data from our communication archives.

7. GDPR & UK Data Protection Rights (EEA & UK Residents)

If you reside within the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, you possess explicit statutory data rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). These rights include:

• The Right to Access: You may request confirmation and copies of any personal communications we hold regarding you.
• The Right to Rectification: You may ask us to correct or amend any inaccurate contact information.
• The Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): You may request that we delete your email correspondence history from our support ticket queues.
• The Right to Restrict & Object to Processing: You may restrict or object to how we process any communications data under specific circumstances.
• The Right to Data Portability: You may request the transfer of your provided communications data to another organization.

8. CCPA & CPRA Privacy Disclosures (California Residents)

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), California residents are afforded distinct protections concerning personal information:

• No Sale or Sharing of Personal Data: Random Object Generator does not sell, monetarily exchange, or share consumers' personal information with third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising.
• Right to Know & Deletion: You have the right to request disclosure of what personal data was collected during support interactions and request its deletion.
• Non-Discrimination: We will never deny services, degrade tool responsiveness, or charge different prices for exercising your statutory privacy rights.

9. Data Security & SSL Encryption

We employ industry-standard Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) encryption secured with modern 256-bit Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificates across all pages of randomobjecttool.com. This ensures that any interaction between your browser and our cloud hosting edge is fully protected against eavesdropping and data interception.

10. Policy Amendments & Privacy Officer Contact

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect evolving data regulations or feature additions. When revisions are published, the "Last Updated" date at the top of this document will be amended accordingly.

If you have questions regarding our privacy practices, wish to exercise your GDPR/CCPA consumer rights, or require technical details on our client-side storage architecture, please reach out to our privacy desk at privacy@randomobjecttool.com or via our Contact Page.
