Privacy Policy
Last updated: 14 August 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how SpinTheWheel (“we”, “us”, “our”) handles information when you use spinthewheel.digital and related pages.
1. Who we are
SpinTheWheel provides free interactive random-wheel tools and related content. For privacy questions, use the Contact page on this website.
2. Information we collect
We aim to collect only what is needed to operate and improve the site:
- Usage data: pages viewed, approximate device type, browser, referrer, scroll depth, time on page, wheel spins and share actions.
- Feedback: optional like/dislike ratings and comments you submit about a wheel.
- Contact messages: name, email address and message content when you use the contact form.
- Technical data: IP address and basic server logs for security, rate limiting and abuse prevention.
We do not require an account to use the public wheels. Wheel options you edit may be stored in your browser’s local storage on your device.
3. How we use information
- To provide and improve the wheels and website experience
- To understand which tools are useful and where pages need improvement
- To respond to contact messages and feedback
- To maintain security, prevent spam and investigate abuse
- To generate aggregated statistics (for example, popular wheels or common results)
4. Cookies and similar technologies
We use essential cookies/session storage for admin login and may use first-party analytics identifiers stored locally in your browser. These help us measure sessions without building advertising profiles.
If Google Analytics or similar services are enabled later in settings, those providers may set their own cookies according to their policies.
5. Legal bases (where applicable)
Depending on your location, we may process data based on legitimate interests (operating a secure, useful website), consent (optional feedback/contact submissions), and/or contractual necessity for admin access.
6. Sharing of information
We do not sell personal information. We may share data with hosting providers and infrastructure services that help us run the website, or when required by law.
7. Data retention
Analytics and feedback are kept for as long as useful for improving the site, then deleted or aggregated. Contact messages are retained until handled and for a reasonable period afterwards for follow-up. Server logs are kept for security monitoring.
8. Your rights
Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict certain personal data, or to object to processing. Contact us to make a request.
9. Children’s privacy
SpinTheWheel is a general audience tool. Classroom wheels may be used by teachers; we do not knowingly collect personal information from children for marketing purposes. Teachers should avoid entering sensitive student data into public tools.
10. International transfers
Our hosting provider may process data in data centres outside your country. Where required, appropriate safeguards are expected from those providers.
11. Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do.
