Privacy Policy
TheWheelSpinner.com respects your data. Here is exactly what we do (and don't) collect.
1. Local-First Processing
We operate on a **local-first** product philosophy. All names, values, text entries, and weights you input into our tool are processed entirely inside your browser's local memory.
- Your entry lists are never uploaded to our servers.
- We do not store your list of participants or choices in any remote databases.
- If you close the tab, the lists persist only in your browser's local cache (
localStorage), enabling you to continue where you left off when you return.
2. Anonymous Share Links
When you click "Share Wheel", the configuration is packed and compressed using a URL-safe Base64 token on the client side. The resulting link contains your entry data directly inside the URL hash or query string.
Our server acts as a static host; it simply delivers the page files. It does not inspect, parse, or log the data encoded within your shared URLs.
3. Privacy-Compliant Analytics
We collect anonymous product funnel events (such as whether a page was viewed, a spin was started, a template was loaded, or a layout was toggled) to help us optimize page speeds and usability.
Important Security Bound: We do not transmit the actual text of your entries, names, or titles to any analytics platforms. All event logs are fully anonymized and strip out user-specific text.
4. Cookie Policy
We do not use cookie walls or tracking cookies. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles or track your behavior across other websites.
If we require local storage for settings, we utilize standard browser storage (localStorage) to remember your volume, theme, and spin duration.
5. Contact & Updates
If we make updates to this privacy policy to accommodate future features (such as opt-in cloud accounts), we will document the changes clearly here.
