Privacy policy

No accounts. No emails unless you write to us. The name you just cued is not stored anywhere on our side. It exists only in your browser, and in local storage if you starred it.

No session replay, no heatmaps, no fingerprinting, no data brokers.

cuename is set up to show ads through Google AdSense. When ads appear, Google and its partners use cookies to serve and measure them, which can include personalized ads where you have allowed them. You can manage ad personalization at adssettings.google.com and read how Google uses data from partner sites at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, advertising cookies are off by default: Google's consent settings start as denied, and because cuename currently shows no consent prompt, personalized advertising cookies stay off in those regions.

We use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages people actually find useful. It records page views, approximate location (city level), and device type. In the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland it starts in a cookieless, consent-denied mode, and because cuename currently shows no consent prompt, it stays that way in those regions.

You can block it everywhere with Google's opt-out add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout, or simply decline the prompt where one appears. How Google handles this data is described at policies.google.com/privacy.

A rolling 30-day tally of which pages get used, kept in memory to power the Popular right now rail. It counts pages, never people, and resets if the server restarts.

Standard web server logs kept briefly for security and debugging (IP, user-agent, path, timestamp), then rotated away. These logs aren't cross-referenced with the names themselves.

Cloudflare provides aggregate, cookieless traffic statistics (country, page views, bandwidth). We see totals, never individual profiles.

Ko-fi processes tip payments directly; we never see your card details. If you write to us via the contact page, the message lands in a human inbox and isn't fed into any automated system.

Favorites and preferences live in localStorage on the device you're using. Clearing your browser data deletes them. There is no 'account recovery' because there is no account.
