1. Privacy at a Glance

At PokéRandomizer ("we", "our", or "the website"), we believe privacy should be the default. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding data when you access and use our random generator, wheel spinner, and team builder tools.

🛡️Key Privacy Highlights:
  • No User Accounts: You are not required to create an account, register, or provide an email to use any feature.
  • No Personal Data Collection: We do not ask for or collect names, phone numbers, addresses, or payment cards.
  • No Tracking Cookies: We do not place advertising tracking cookies or behavioral marketing beacons.
  • Client-Side Execution: Random rolls, wheel spins, and team calculations run locally in your browser’s memory.

2. Information We Do Not Collect

Unlike traditional websites that maintain user databases, PokéRandomizer does not collect or store the following categories of information:

❌ Personal IdentifiersNo names, emails, physical addresses, or phone numbers.
❌ Financial & Payment DataNo credit cards, bank accounts, or billing addresses.
❌ User Generated ContentNo uploaded files, comments, forum posts, or user media.
❌ Server-Side Session HistoryYour generated teams and rolls exist only in your browser memory.

3. Browser Local Storage & Cookies

PokéRandomizer does not use traditional tracking cookies. We use the browser’s standard localStorage API solely to preserve your visual and audio accessibility preferences across visits:

Key NamePossible ValuesPurpose
pokerandomizer_theme"dark" | "light"Remembers your preferred color theme to avoid blinding white/dark screen flashes.
pokerandomizer_muted"true" | "false"Remembers whether UI click sounds and audio cries are muted or unmuted.

These values remain entirely on your local device. They are never transmitted to any server and can be cleared at any time through your browser's "Clear Site Data" settings.

4. Third-Party CDNs & External Assets

To provide official Pokémon artwork, animated battle sprites, audio cries, and custom typography, the application requests assets from the following third-party networks:

  • PokeAPI & GitHub UserContent (raw.githubusercontent.com): Supplies official Sugimori artwork and official audio cries (OGG format).
  • Pokémon Showdown CDN (play.pokemonshowdown.com): Delivers animated Gen 5 battle sprites (GIF format).
  • Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com / fonts.gstatic.com): Serves the typography fonts (Chakra Petch and Plus Jakarta Sans).

When your browser requests media from these CDNs, your browser transmits standard technical connection data (such as your IP address and User-Agent) directly to those third-party providers as part of standard web protocols. We do not control the data practices of external CDNs.

5. Analytics & Advertising

As of the current version, PokéRandomizer operates without third-party web analytics tools (such as Google Analytics, Hotjar, or Meta Pixel) and without third-party advertising networks. We do not build user behavioral profiles, track cross-site browsing, or sell user information.

6. Children’s Privacy (COPPA / GDPR-K)

PokéRandomizer is an informational gaming utility suitable for general audiences. Because we do not collect, store, or solicit personal information from any user, we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in the European Union).

7. Your Rights & Data Choices

Under privacy laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA):

  • Right to Access & Deletion: Because we do not store your personal information on our servers, there is no personal database to inspect or delete.
  • Right to Opt-Out of Sale: We do not sell, rent, or monetize your personal information.
  • Local Preference Erasure: You can completely erase any stored theme and sound preferences at any time by clearing your browser's local storage for this domain.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our technical architecture or legal requirements. The updated date at the top of this page will always indicate when changes were last implemented.
