This Cookie Policy explains how Names Generator Hub uses cookies and similar technologies on namesgeneratorhub.com (the "Site"). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make sites work, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to site owners and advertisers. "Local storage" is a related technology that lets a site store small amounts of data in your browser — we use it to remember the names you save.
How we use cookies and local storage
1. Essential / functional
These are necessary for the Site to function and to remember basic preferences. We use your browser's local storage to keep your saved (favourite) names on your device. This information never leaves your browser and is not sent to us. We also store your analytics choice in local storage so we do not ask on every visit.
2. Analytics (optional)
Google Analytics 4 loads only after you choose "Accept analytics". If you decline or have not made a choice, the Analytics script is not requested. When accepted, it helps us understand aggregate use, such as which tools are popular.
3. Infrastructure measurement
Cloudflare Web Analytics / Browser Insights may collect limited page-delivery and browser performance measurements. Cloudflare states that this product does not use cookies or local storage for those measurements. This is separate from optional Google Analytics.
4. Advertising
When advertising is enabled, we may use Google AdSense, which (along with its partners) uses cookies to serve and measure ads, and to show ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google uses advertising cookies to help serve ads across the web. You can learn more and manage your preferences at Google's advertising page.
Third-party cookies
Some cookies may be set by third parties we work with, such as Google (for advertising and/or analytics). We do not control these cookies. Please refer to the relevant third party's own cookie and privacy policies for details on how they use them.
Managing and disabling cookies
You are in control of cookies. You can:
- Adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies (check your browser's "Help" or "Privacy" settings).
- Clear this Site's local storage to reset your analytics choice and choose again on your next visit.
- Manage personalised advertising via Google Ads Settings and the Digital Advertising Alliance control page.
- Clear your saved names at any time using the "Clear all" button within a tool, or by clearing your browser's site data.
Please note that blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the Site work, though our core generators are designed to function with minimal cookies.
Consent
The Site asks before loading Google Analytics, and declining does not affect the generators. Before advertising is switched on for visitors in the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland, we will add a Google-certified consent management platform for advertising choices. This analytics control is not presented as a replacement for that required advertising CMP.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies evolves (for example, when advertising is switched on). The "Last updated" date above shows the latest revision.
