Privacy Policy

1. Collection of Personal Information

On this site ("Ylyuriy"), we may collect personal information such as your email address through the contact form (Google Forms), the email address, or the X (formerly Twitter) account listed on our contact page. This information is used only to respond to inquiries and to contact you when necessary.

2. How We Use Personal Information

Collected personal information is used for the following purposes:

• Responding to inquiries
• Contacting you at your request
• Important notices about site operations

3. Sharing with Third Parties

We do not disclose or provide personal information to third parties, except as required by law.

Note that sending information to the external services listed in the next section is done only to the extent necessary to render and operate the site and to understand how it is used.

4. Analytics and External Services

This site uses the external services listed below. What is sent, when it is sent, and why we use it are as follows. Information that directly identifies you, such as your name or email address, is never sent.

• Google Analytics (Google LLC) — when you view a page, the URL of that page, the referring link, your browser and device type, and your approximate location are sent. Cookies are used (see section 6). We use this to understand and improve how the site is used.
• Microsoft Clarity (Microsoft Corporation) — continuously while you view a page, the URL of that page, interactions such as clicks and scrolling, what is displayed on screen, your browser and device type, connection information such as your IP address, and your approximate location are sent. Cookies are used (see section 6). We use this to see which parts of the site are used and where people get stuck, in the form of session replays and heatmaps. The contents of input fields, and the parts of the screen where the words and names you enter are displayed, are replaced with masking characters by Microsoft Clarity's masking feature and are not sent. For access from the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, Clarity is not loaded at all, so none of the above is sent (see section 6).
• Google consent management (CMP, Google LLC) — we have integrated a consent management platform, but we do not currently show a consent notice (see section 6). When a page is viewed, connection information such as your IP address is sent in order to determine whether a consent notice must be shown. Cookies (such as “FCCDCF” and “FCNEC”) are used to store that determination and your consent state (see section 6).
• Google Fonts (Google LLC) — when you view a page, connection information such as your IP address is sent in order to deliver web fonts. No cookies are used. We use this to render the site.
• Google Forms (Google LLC) — the button on our contact page takes you to a form hosted by Google, and what you enter and submit there is sent to Google (nothing is sent by merely browsing this site). We use this to respond to your inquiry.
• X (formerly Twitter, X Corp.) — only when you press a share button on one of our tools, you are taken to a share screen and the URL of that page along with the share text is sent. Nothing is sent unless you press the button.

Information sent to Google services is managed in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy. You can also disable data collection by Google Analytics using Google's opt-out add-on. Information sent to Microsoft Clarity is managed in accordance with the Microsoft Privacy Statement. For information shared via the share button, please see X's Privacy Policy.

5. Advertising

We do not currently serve advertising on this site. We do not load any ad units or ad-serving scripts such as Google AdSense, so no information is sent for advertising purposes. We have integrated a consent management platform (CMP), but that is a separate mechanism from ad serving itself (see section 4 for details).

If we introduce a third-party advertising service such as Google AdSense in the future, we will update this policy to state what is sent, how cookies are used, and how to turn off personalized advertising.

6. Managing Cookies and Consent Settings

You can refuse or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings. The only cookies this site uses are for analytics and for recording your consent, so the tools continue to work normally if you refuse them(your inputs and settings are saved in local storage, not cookies — see section 7).

This site uses a mechanism called Google Consent Mode v2, and for access from the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland the use of cookies for analytics and advertising is denied by default. We do not currently show a consent notice in those regions, so that denied state continues. Meanwhile Google Analytics measures traffic in a cookieless form only, and Microsoft Clarity is not loaded at all— none of the interaction data, screen content, or IP information described in section 4 is sent, and “_clck” and “_clsk” are not created.

For access from other regions, including Japan, we use the Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity cookies described in section 4. The Clarity cookies identify visitors — “_clck” and “_clsk” on this site's domain, and cookies such as “CLID” and “MUID” on Microsoft's domains.

You can delete the cookies stored on this site's own domain at any time from your browser settings. Cookies stored on Microsoft's domains (such as “CLID” and “MUID”) cannot be deleted from this site— please remove those from your browser settings as well. Where a consent notice can be shown, “Privacy settings”appears at the bottom of the page and lets you change or withdraw your consent at any time; on withdrawal, the Microsoft Clarity cookies on this site's own domain (“_clck” and “_clsk”) are deleted (sending from a tag that has already loaded does not fully stop until the next time you load a page). Because we do not currently show that notice, this button is not shown either.

If we begin showing a consent notice, or introduce third-party advertising, the regions and purposes covered will change. We will update this policy to state the details at that point.

7. Local Storage

Our tools (Word Roulette, Web Dice, Amidakuji, and Bingo Machine) use your browser's local storage so that your inputs and settings carry over the next time you use them. The stored data consists of the words and names you entered, your draw history, and settings such as animation length, and contains no personally identifiable information.

This data is stored only on your own device (in your browser) and is never sent to us or to any external service.You can erase it at any time with the "Reset" or "Clear history" button in each tool, or by clearing your browsing data in your browser. If local storage is unavailable in your browser settings, the tools still work as usual — your inputs and history simply do not carry over to your next visit.

So that you can keep using the tools where there is no connection, this site also stores the files needed to display its pages (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, and so on) in your browser's cache, using a Service Worker. Only files served by this site are stored; nothing you enter is included. This too is kept only on your own device and is never sent to us or to any external service. You can erase it at any time by clearing your browsing data in your browser.

8. Share Links for Draw Results

The links created by the share buttons in each tool embed the result of the draw, together with the input it was based on (words, names, goals, and so on), in the part of the URL after the "#".

Because of how browsers work, everything after the "#" is never sent as part of the page request, so it never reaches our servers or appears in our access logs. That said, scripts running on the page can read the full URL, including the part after the "#", so the analytics service named in section 4 (Microsoft Clarity) records it. For access from the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, Microsoft Clarity is not loaded at all, so this recording does not happen (see section 6). Anyone who receives the link can see its contents. If you post a share link somewhere public such as social media, your input becomes visible to anyone, so please consider where you share it.

Opening a share link does not store any of its content in your browser, and it does not overwrite your own words, names, or draw history.

9. External Links

This site may contain links to external sites. Please note that we are not responsible for the handling of personal information on linked sites.

10. Changes to This Policy
