1. Introduction
Welcome to SpinPickOnline ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This privacy policy outlines how we handle your data when you use our spin the wheel, random picker wheel, wheel of names, and other randomizer tools on our website. We believe transparent data practices are essential to building trust with our users.
2. Data Collection
Good news: We collect very little data. SpinPickOnline is designed as a client-side tool. The lists of names or items you enter into our spinner wheel, name picker, decision wheel, or any random picker tool are processed locally on your device and are NOT sent to our servers or stored by us, unless you explicitly choose to use a "Save/Share" feature that generates a unique link.
We may collect standard non-personal analytical data (like browser type, time spent on site, pages visited) via tools like Google Analytics to help us improve the user experience of our spinning wheel and randomizer features.
When you use our shareable wheel feature, the names and options you enter are encoded into the URL itself. This data is stored to enable the sharing functionality but is not linked to any personal identifier or user account.
3. Use of Information
We use the minimal information we collect to:
- Operate and maintain the website, including our spin wheel, random name picker, and wheel of names tools.
- Analyze usage trends to improve features and user experience of our spinner wheel and decision-making tools.
- Prevent abuse, spam, and unauthorized access to our free randomizer services.
- Improve the performance and reliability of our random picker wheel and all randomization features.
- Understand how users interact with our tools to develop new features and enhancements.
4. Cookies
We may use cookies and local storage to store your preferences (like sound settings, theme choices, or saved wheel configurations) locally on your device specifically to enhance your experience with our spin the wheel and random picker tools. These cookies are used solely to remember your settings between visits.
You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some convenient features may not function properly. Disabling cookies will not affect the core functionality of our random number generator or spinning wheel animations.
5. Data Security
We take data security seriously. Our random picker wheel uses cryptographically secure random number generators (CSPRNG) that operate entirely on your device. This means:
- Your spin wheel entries are processed locally in your browser, never on our servers.
- The randomization algorithm uses browser-level security APIs for maximum fairness.
- No personal data is transmitted during the spinning process of our wheel of names.
- Shared wheel URLs use encoded data that cannot be traced to individual users.
6. Third-Party Links
Our website may contain links to other sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those external sites. We recommend carefully reviewing the privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit after leaving SpinPickOnline. Detailed diligence is encouraged when navigating away from our platform.
7. Children's Privacy
SpinPickOnline is designed to be safe for all ages. Our spin the wheel, name picker, and wheel of names tools do not collect personally identifiable information from children. Teachers and parents can use our random picker wheel with students of all ages without privacy concerns, as all data is processed locally on the device.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will notify users of any significant changes by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of our spin wheel and randomizer tools after any modifications constitutes acceptance of the updated privacy policy.
