Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 22, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how JustSpinWheel (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you visit or use our website and browser-based spin wheel tools (the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use.
1. Who we are
JustSpinWheel provides free, client-side random picker and decision wheel experiences for entertainment and everyday decisions. For data protection purposes, the data controller is the person or organization operating this deployment of the site. If you host a copy yourself, you become the controller for that instance. For the official public site, contact details appear on our Contact page.
2. Information we process
2.1 Information you enter
Labels and options you type into a wheel are processed primarily in your browser on your device. We do not require an account to use basic features. If you use “Save & Share link” (or similar), your list may be encoded into the URL. Anyone who receives that link can decode and read those labels. Do not put passwords, health data, financial details, or other sensitive personal information into shared links.
2.2 Local storage
We may store your entry list in browser local storage so it persists between visits on the same device and browser. You can clear this data anytime via your browser settings.
2.3 Technical and log data
Like most websites, servers, CDNs, or hosting providers may automatically log data such as IP address, approximate location derived from IP, device type, browser version, referring URL, timestamps, and pages requested. We use this information for security, reliability, abuse prevention, and aggregated statistics.
3. Cookies and similar technologies
We and our partners may use cookies, local storage, pixels, and similar technologies to:
- remember preferences and language selections where applicable;
- measure traffic and performance (e.g. aggregated analytics);
- deliver and measure advertising, including through Google AdSense or comparable networks.
Ad partners may use cookies to show personalized or non-personalized ads depending on your region, consent settings, and their policies. You can manage cookies in your browser. In the European Economic Area, the UK, and certain other regions, you may see a consent mechanism where required.
4. Advertising (Google AdSense and similar)
We may display third-party advertisements to support hosting and development. Providers such as Google may collect and process data as described in their policies, including:
You can control personalized ads from Google in Google Ads Settings and learn about industry opt-outs via resources such as the Digital Advertising Alliance (where available).
5. Legal bases (EEA, UK, and similar)
Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on appropriate legal bases such as: contract or legitimate interests (operating and securing the Service, analytics, fraud prevention), and—where required—consent for non-essential cookies and certain ad processing. You may withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.
6. Sharing of information
We share information with service providers that assist us (e.g. hosting, analytics, advertising networks) subject to contractual safeguards where appropriate. We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or to protect rights, safety, and security.
7. International transfers
If you access the Service from outside the country where our servers or partners operate, your data may be processed in other countries. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) for transfers from the EEA/UK.
8. Retention
Server logs and analytics may be retained for a limited period according to operational and legal needs. Locally stored wheel data remains until you clear site data in your browser. Shared URLs may be stored by third parties (e.g. chat apps, search indexes) outside our control.
9. Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, rectify, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing, and to data portability where applicable. You may also lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise rights, contact us via the details on our Contact page. We will respond within a reasonable period as required by law.
If you are a California resident, you may have additional rights under the CCPA/CPRA regarding disclosure, deletion, and opting out of certain “sales” or “sharing” of personal information (as defined by California law). We do not knowingly sell personal information of minors under 16.
10. Children
The Service is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have collected such information, please contact us so we can delete it.
11. Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; use the Service at your own risk for highly sensitive decisions.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date will change accordingly. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance unless applicable law requires additional steps.
