    Introduction

    Information We Collect

    We collect minimal information about our users. All UUID generation is performed client-side in your browser, and we do not store any of the UUIDs you generate or your input data.

    Hosting providers may process access logs to serve the site. Optional analytics and advertising are loaded only after you enable the relevant choice. These services may process:

    • Log data (IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent on the site)
    • Device information (device type, operating system)
    • Usage data through cookies and similar technologies

    With analytics enabled, PostHog records page visits and tool actions, including generation, successful copies, export formats, and broad result or error categories. We do not send generated identifiers, pasted values, names, or namespaces. Session replay and automatic interaction capture are disabled. PostHog is hosted in the United States. You can disable analytics using Manage Cookie Preferences below.
