Privacy Policy

Last updated September 2026. This policy explains what Name Almanac Made Easy ("N.A.M.E.," "we") collects when you use namesez4u.com, and how advertising on the site works.

Who Runs This Site

Name Almanac Made Easy is an independently published project. It is not a large media company, and it is not affiliated with or endorsed by the U.S. Social Security Administration. Questions about this policy or the site in general can be sent to citylinks4u@gmail.com.

What We Store

Your random-name-picker shortlist and viewing history are kept locally in your browser (using localStorage/sessionStorage) and are never transmitted to us. If you create or vote in a shared name poll, we store the poll's options and vote totals in a database so that everyone with the poll link can see the shared results. Creating or voting in a poll does not require an account, a name, or any contact information from you.

Cookies and Advertising

This site runs Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings page, or opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info/choices.

Where required by law (for example under GDPR or CCPA), a consent banner will be presented before any personalized-advertising cookies are set, and you will be able to decline them.

Analytics

We may use basic, aggregated traffic measurement tools to understand how the site is used and to improve it. Any analytics we add will be limited to aggregate usage patterns; we do not sell personal information, and we do not build individual profiles of visitors for our own purposes.

Children's Privacy

This site is intended for parents and other adults researching names. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

If our data practices change — for example, if we add new analytics or advertising partners — we will update this page and the date at the top of it.
