Privacy policy
Short version: the generators run entirely in your browser, and whatever you type into them stays there.
What we do not collect
- No accounts, sign-ups or email addresses.
- No generated values. Passwords, PINs, QR payloads, usernames, Base64 input and lottery lines are produced on your device and never transmitted to a server.
- No uploads of any kind, because there is no backend to upload to.
What is stored on your device
A single local-storage entry remembers which generators you opened most recently, so the site can show them as shortcuts. It never leaves your browser, and clearing site data removes it.
Fonts
The pages load three typefaces from Google Fonts. If you would rather make no external requests at all, remove the two fonts.googleapis.com links from the page headers. The design falls back to your system fonts.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to count visits and see which generators get used. It is off until you accept it in the cookie banner: before that the Google script is never loaded, so no request reaches Google and no cookie is set. Decline and nothing loads at all. You can change your answer whenever you like through Cookie settings at the bottom of any page. Analytics never sees what you type into a generator, because that never leaves your browser in the first place.
Hosting and security
The site is served through Cloudflare, which processes technical data such as your IP address in order to deliver the pages and block attacks, and sets a few strictly necessary cookies. The cookie policy lists them one by one.
Advertising
Elton Lab is free and is paid for by advertising through Google AdSense, which loads together with the page. Until you answer the cookie banner, Google is told through Google Consent Mode that it may not store or read anything in your browser, so no advertising cookie is written and the ads you see are generic rather than picked for you. Analytics and advertising are asked about separately, so you can allow one and refuse the other.
If you allow personalised ads, Google may set cookies to choose which ads to show, to avoid repeating them and to detect fraud. Either way, fetching an ad means Google receives the request itself, including your IP address and the page you are on, since that is how an ad reaches the page at all. None of it touches what you generate here, because that never leaves your browser. The cookie policy explains this in full and lists each cookie.
Changes
If this policy changes in a way that affects you, the updated version will be published on this page.
