Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 25, 2026

This policy explains what data is and is not processed when you use SpinThatWheel (spinthatwheel.net), and which third-party services may be involved. SpinThatWheel is designed to minimize data collection: the tools themselves run entirely in your browser.

1. Wheel lists are processed locally

The entry lists you type or edit, your spins, and every result are processed by JavaScript running on your own device. They are not transmitted to SpinThatWheel's servers, not logged, and not stored by us. Edited lists are saved in your browser's local storage — on your device, under your control — so they survive a reload; the Reset button or clearing site data removes them. A list leaves your browser in exactly one case: a share link you deliberately copy, which encodes the list into the link itself and is stored nowhere by us. Spin history exists only on the page and is discarded when the tab closes. Analytics events, where enabled (see section 4), never include your entries or your results.

2. Technical hosting data

SpinThatWheel is hosted on Vercel. Like virtually all web hosting, serving pages involves processing technical request data such as your IP address, browser user-agent, and requested URLs, which may appear in short-lived infrastructure logs used for security, abuse prevention, and operations. This processing is performed by the hosting provider as part of delivering the site. See Vercel's privacy policy for details of their practices.

3. Cookies and consent

The SpinThatWheel site itself does not set cookies for the wheels to work (saved lists use local storage, not cookies), and no advertising or analytics cookies are set unless and until those services are enabled and, where required, you have made an applicable consent choice. If advertising or analytics are activated in your region, a consent-management dialog will govern which optional technologies may run, and you will be able to revoke your choice at any time through the same mechanism.

4. Analytics data

SpinThatWheel may use an analytics service (such as Google Analytics 4 or Vercel Web Analytics) to understand aggregate usage — for example, which tools are visited and whether errors occur. Where analytics are active, they are limited to coarse interaction events (such as "a spin completed" or "a validation error was shown") and never include the entries on your wheel or which one won. Analytics identifiers and cookies, where used, are subject to the consent choices described in section 3.

5. Advertising data

SpinThatWheel may display advertising provided by Google AdSense to fund free tools. When ads are active, Google and its partners may process technical data (such as IP address and page context) and, depending on your consent choices, may use cookies or similar technologies to select and measure ads. Where consent rules apply, personalized advertising runs only after an applicable consent choice; non-personalized options are used otherwise. For details, see Google's advertising policies and Google's privacy policy. Ad blockers do not affect the functioning of SpinThatWheel tools.

6. Third-party services

Depending on configuration, the following categories of third parties may be involved:

  • Vercel — hosting and content delivery (always).
  • Google AdSense — advertising (only when enabled).
  • Analytics provider — aggregate usage measurement (only when enabled).
  • Consent-management platform — records consent choices (only when advertising/analytics requiring consent are enabled).

SpinThatWheel does not sell personal information and does not operate accounts, profiles, or user databases.

7. Data retention

SpinThatWheel itself retains no user-entered data — there is nothing to retain, because wheel lists and results never reach our servers; lists you choose to save live in your own browser's local storage until you remove them. Technical logs held by the hosting provider, and any analytics or advertising data held by the providers above, are retained according to those providers' published retention policies. Consent choices are stored in your browser and/or by the consent-management platform for the period required to honor them.

8. Your rights and contact

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of personal data, and to withdraw consent. Because SpinThatWheel holds no user-entered data, most such requests will concern the third-party services listed above; we will point you to the correct controller and assist where we can. To exercise rights or ask questions about this policy, use the details on the contact page.

9. Changes to this policy

This policy will be updated as services are enabled or changed — for example, when advertising, analytics, or consent management goes live. The date at the top reflects the latest revision.
