Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 27, 2026
At Spin The Wheel, your privacy matters to us. This page explains exactly what information is collected when you use our site, how it is used, and the choices you have. The core of the wheel — your entries, spins, images, and results — stays entirely in your browser and is never sent to any server. The only data collected comes from advertising and analytics partners that help keep the site free to use.
1. Information We Collect
We do not collect, store, or transmit any of the content you type into the wheel. Names, choices, custom entries, uploaded images, and results all stay in your browser's memory and are never sent to any server.
However, the site does use third-party services (analytics and advertising) that may collect limited technical information automatically, such as:
- IP address (used by analytics and ad networks to determine approximate location)
- Browser type, device type, operating system, and language
- Pages visited, time spent, and referring URL
- General usage patterns and interactions with the site
- Cookie identifiers used for analytics and advertising
This information is used in aggregate to understand how the site is used, improve its performance, and display relevant advertising.
2. Local Storage
The only thing we store directly on your device is a tiny local preference: your light or dark mode choice. This is saved using your browser's localStorage API and stays entirely on your computer.
- What is stored: a single key called
themewith the valuelightordark. - Where it's stored: locally in your browser only.
- Is it sent anywhere: no. It never leaves your device.
- How to remove it: clear your browser's site data for wheeloffun.app at any time.
We do not store your entries, your spins, your results, your images, or anything else you type into the wheel.
3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Like most websites, Spin The Wheel uses cookies and similar technologies (such as pixels and web beacons). Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help the site function properly, understand usage patterns, and deliver advertising.
We use the following categories of cookies:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the site to work correctly (security, basic navigation, remembering your theme preference). These cannot be disabled.
- Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how visitors use the site — which pages are visited, how users arrive, and how they interact. We use Google Analytics for this purpose.
- Advertising Cookies: Used by third-party ad networks to deliver advertisements that may be relevant to you and to measure advertising effectiveness.
Where required by applicable law (for example, under the EU ePrivacy Directive), we obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies. You can manage or withdraw your consent at any time through the cookie consent banner or by adjusting your browser settings. Please note that disabling cookies may affect some site functionality.
4. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC ("Google"), to measure and analyze how visitors use the site. Google Analytics collects information such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring sources. This data is used to improve the site and understand user behavior.
Google Analytics may set cookies on your device and may transfer data to servers located outside your country of residence. Google processes this data on our behalf and is contractually bound to protect it. For more information about how Google collects and processes data, please visit How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or by adjusting your Google Ads settings. Please note that opting out does not prevent all data collection by other third parties.
5. Third-Party Advertising & Affiliate Links
The site displays advertisements and may include affiliate links. These are provided by third-party ad networks and affiliate partners. When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. This helps us keep the site free to use.
Third-party ad networks and affiliate partners may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to collect information about your visits to this site and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements. We do not control the data collected by these third parties, and their practices are governed by their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review their policies, including:
- Google Privacy Policy (for Google Ads and Analytics)
- Google Ads Settings (to opt out of personalized Google ads)
- Digital Advertising Alliance Opt-Out (U.S. users)
- Your Online Choices (EU users)
6. Third-Party Services
We keep third-party services to a minimum. Currently, we use:
-
Google Fonts — to display the Inter typeface. Your browser makes a request to
fonts.googleapis.comto fetch the font files, and Google may see your IP address as part of that request. See Google's Privacy Policy. - Google Analytics — for traffic analysis (see Section 4 above).
- Third-party ad networks and affiliate partners — for advertising and monetization (see Section 5 above).
7. Your Privacy Rights (GDPR / CCPA and Other Laws)
Depending on your location, you may have specific rights regarding your personal data under applicable privacy laws, including the EU's General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"), the UK GDPR, and the California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA"). Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data held about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate personal data.
- Request deletion of your personal data.
- Object to or restrict certain processing of your personal data.
- Request portability of your personal data.
- Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.
- Opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information (as defined under the CCPA).
- Not be discriminated against for exercising your privacy rights.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us. We will respond to verified requests within the timeframes required by applicable law. Note that because the wheel itself never transmits your entries or results, most requests regarding that data are automatically satisfied — it simply never leaves your device.
8. Children's Privacy
The wheel is a simple, safe tool suitable for all ages, including children under 13. Because the wheel content never leaves your device, we do not collect any personal information from children through the wheel itself.
However, third-party analytics and advertising partners may collect limited technical data (such as IP address and cookie identifiers) as described in Sections 3–5. Parents and teachers using the site with children should be aware of this. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 16. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
9. Data Security
The wheel's core functionality — random number generation, wheel rendering, image handling, and result calculation — runs entirely in your browser using standard, well-reviewed web APIs:
crypto.getRandomValues()for cryptographically secure randomness- The Canvas and SVG APIs for rendering
- The FileReader API for image uploads (kept local)
- The Web Audio API for sound effects
- The SpeechSynthesis API for text-to-speech
Because the wheel content you enter never leaves your device, there is no server-side store of that data to breach. Data transmitted to third-party analytics and advertising partners is encrypted in transit (HTTPS) and handled according to their own security standards.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the site, its partners, or applicable law. When we do, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Material changes will be announced clearly on this page before taking effect.
