Privacy Policy
We believe privacy is a right, not a feature. Here's exactly what we collect, why, and what we never do with your information — in plain English.
This Privacy Policy describes how GeneratorBrain ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit generatorbrain.com and use our generator tools. By using our services, you agree to the practices described here.
We are committed to radical transparency. If you have questions about anything in this policy, email privacy@generatorbrain.com.
1. Information We Collect
We collect aggregate, anonymous analytics data and locally-stored preferences. No personal data is collected unless you contact us.
We collect the absolute minimum necessary to operate and improve our service:
- Analytics data: Aggregate, anonymized pageview counts and general usage patterns. This data has no personally identifiable information attached — we cannot identify you from it.
- Locally-stored preferences: Your theme preference (light/dark) and any saved favorites are stored in your browser's localStorage. This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
- Contact communications: If you email us or use our contact form, we receive your email address and the contents of your message. We use this only to respond to your inquiry.
2. Information We Do NOT Collect
We don't collect your name, email, inputs to generators, browsing history, or any personal identifiers. No account means no profile.
We are explicit about what we do not collect:
- Your name, email address, or any personal identifier (unless you contact us)
- The inputs you enter into our generator tools
- Your browsing history across other websites
- Precise geolocation data
- Device fingerprints or unique advertising identifiers
- Demographic information or behavioral profiles
- Payment information (our tools are free — there's nothing to pay for)
- Social media profile data
3. Cookies & Local Storage
We use minimal first-party cookies for functional purposes (session management, theme). Advertising partners may set their own cookies.
GeneratorBrain uses a small number of cookies and browser storage mechanisms:
4. Analytics
We use Google Analytics for aggregate page view data. It's configured to anonymize IPs. No personal profiles are built.
We use analytics to understand which tools are most useful, how people navigate the site, and where we should invest our development time. Our analytics setup is configured to be as privacy-preserving as possible:
- IP addresses are anonymized before processing
- Data is used solely for aggregate analysis, not to track individuals
- We do not use analytics data for advertising targeting
- Data retention is limited to what is necessary for operational insights
5. AI-Generated Content Disclaimer
Generator outputs are algorithmic suggestions. They are not professional advice. Verify any generated names or content before using commercially.
GeneratorBrain provides algorithmically and AI-generated content as suggestions and creative starting points. This is important to understand:
- Generated content is not professional legal, business, medical, or financial advice.
- We make no guarantees that generated names are trademark-clear, domain-available, or legally usable in your jurisdiction.
- For tools that use external AI models, your input may be transmitted to and processed by those models per their providers' privacy policies.
- Any AI-generated content you choose to use is your responsibility to verify and vet.
6. Third-Party Services
We use Google Analytics and Google AdSense. Both are industry-standard and operate under Google's Privacy Policy.
GeneratorBrain uses a limited number of third-party services to operate. Each has its own privacy policy:
We do not sell data to any third party and do not use data aggregators or data brokers.
7. Data Retention
We keep contact emails as long as the conversation is relevant. Local data stays until you clear your browser. Analytics is aggregate only.
- Contact emails: Retained for as long as needed to handle your inquiry, typically 12 months, then deleted.
- Analytics data: Aggregate and anonymized. Retained for up to 26 months per Google Analytics standard settings.
- Local storage data: Stored on your device indefinitely until you clear your browser's local storage or cookies. We have no access to or control over this data.
8. Security Measures
All connections use HTTPS/TLS. We use access controls and monitoring. No system is 100% secure, but we take this seriously.
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect information in our possession:
- All connections to generatorbrain.com use TLS encryption (HTTPS)
- Server infrastructure is access-controlled with principle of least privilege
- We conduct periodic security reviews
- We minimize data collection, which inherently reduces security risk surface
- We promptly investigate and address any reported security issues
No system is perfectly secure. If you discover a security vulnerability, please disclose it responsibly to security@generatorbrain.com.
9. Your Rights
You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of any data we hold about you. Email us and we'll respond within 30 days.
