RandomNumbers.net is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect (if any), how we use it, and your rights as a user of our free tools. We believe in full transparency and minimal data collection.
RandomNumbers.net is designed to work without requiring any personal information. We do not ask you to register, sign in, or provide your name, email, or any identifying details to use any of our tools.
We may automatically collect limited technical data when you visit our site, including:
Device information
Browser type and version, operating system, screen resolution, and device type (desktop/mobile).
Usage data
Pages visited, time on site, referring URL, and general geographic region (country-level only).
IP address
Collected temporarily for security and abuse prevention. Not stored long-term or linked to individuals.
Interaction data
Which tools you use (e.g., number generator, name picker) to help us improve our services.
Any data collected is used solely to operate and improve the site. Specifically, we use it to:
- Ensure the website functions correctly across different browsers and devices
- Monitor and prevent abusive traffic, bots, and security threats
- Understand which features are most used so we can prioritize improvements
- Diagnose and fix technical bugs or performance issues
- Produce anonymized, aggregate usage statistics (no individual tracking)
We do not sell, rent, or trade your data to third parties for any commercial purpose.
We use a minimal number of cookies to ensure the site works correctly. These fall into two categories:
- Essential cookies — required for core functionality such as remembering your last-used settings (e.g., range preferences). These cannot be disabled without breaking the tool.
- Analytics cookies — set by third-party analytics (see section 4) to help us understand aggregate traffic patterns. These are optional and you may opt out.
We do not use advertising cookies or behavioral tracking cookies. Your number generation results are processed entirely in your browser and are never sent to our servers.
To maintain and improve the site, we rely on a small number of trusted third-party services. Each has its own privacy policy:
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand aggregate traffic. Data is anonymized and IP addresses are truncated. Google Privacy Policy ↗
Hosting provider
Our servers are hosted on a reputable cloud provider. Server access logs may be retained for up to 30 days for security purposes.
We do not integrate with advertising networks, social media tracking pixels, or data brokers.
We retain data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy:
- Server access logs: up to 30 days, then automatically deleted
- Analytics data: retained in aggregated, anonymized form for up to 26 months
- User preferences stored in your browser (local storage): persists until you clear your browser data
Since we do not collect personal accounts or profiles, there is no user data to request deletion of beyond browser-stored preferences.
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding any personal data we hold:
- Right to access — request a copy of any personal data we hold about you
- Right to deletion — request erasure of personal data (note: we hold very little)
- Right to opt out — opt out of analytics tracking via your browser's Do Not Track setting or by rejecting non-essential cookies
- Right to portability — receive data in a machine-readable format where applicable
- Right to rectification — request correction of inaccurate data we may hold
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details in section 8. We will respond within 30 days.
RandomNumbers.net is a general-purpose tool that may be used in educational settings. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. Our site does not require registration, and we do not target advertising at any age group.
If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us immediately and we will delete it promptly.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of RandomNumbers.net after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
