Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 16, 2026
1. Introduction
Elf Names Wiki ("we", "us", or "our") operates the website www.elfnames.wiki. This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information when you use our Service.
2. Information We Collect
We collect minimal information to provide and improve our Service:
- Usage Data: We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to collect anonymous, aggregated traffic data (page views, referrers, device types). This does not use cookies or track individual users.
- Event Data: We track anonymous product events (e.g., "name generated", "portrait clicked") via our own API to improve the service. No personally identifiable information is attached to these events.
- Email Address: Only if you voluntarily provide it (e.g., signing up for launch notifications). We will never sell or share your email with third parties.
- Local Storage: We use your browser's localStorage to save your favorites, generated names, and portrait gallery locally on your device. This data never leaves your browser.
3. Cookies
We do not use tracking cookies. Cloudflare may set essential cookies for security and performance purposes (e.g., bot detection via Turnstile). These are strictly necessary and cannot be used to identify you personally.
4. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Cloudflare: Hosting, CDN, analytics, and security.
- Google Gemini API: AI name generation. Your prompts are sent to Google for processing.
- fal.ai: AI portrait generation. Character descriptions are sent to fal.ai for image generation.
These services have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them.
5. Data Retention
Anonymous event data is retained for 90 days. Email addresses provided for notifications are retained until the feature launches or you request removal. Local storage data persists on your device until you clear it.
6. Children's Privacy
Our Service is not directed to anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
