Last Updated: September 11, 2026
Welcome to Villain Name Generator (villainnamegenerator.net). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring a safe, transparent experience while you use our free villain name generator and related creative resources. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Generator Data
Name generation, including the keywords, genre, gender, and details you enter, is performed entirely in your browser. We do not collect, transmit, or store the prompts you enter, and your inputs are never used to train any AI models. Your generator data never leaves your device.
1.2 Contact Information
If you reach out to us through our Contact Us page, we collect only the information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, and message content. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry and is not shared with any third parties.
1.3 Server Logs
Our hosting provider records standard server request logs, as every web host does. These logs may contain your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, and the page requested. We do not build profiles from these logs and do not connect them to any individual.
1.4 Website Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregate website traffic and improve the site.
Google Analytics may collect page views, session information, approximate location, and browser and device
information. It uses first-party cookies such as _ga and _ga_<container-id>
to distinguish users and maintain session state. We do not send the keywords, details, or generated names
you enter in the generator to Google Analytics.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information described above to:
- Respond to your inquiries submitted via the contact form
- Keep the website secure and functioning correctly
- Improve the quality and variety of generated villain names
- Develop new features (e.g., more genre word banks, names by power, group names)
3. Cookies and Local Storage
Villain Name Generator does not use advertising cookies. Google Analytics may set first-party analytics
cookies, including _ga and _ga_<container-id>, to measure visits and sessions.
You can block or delete these cookies through your browser settings.
The site does use your browser's local storage, which stays on your device and is never transmitted to us, for exactly two things:
- Theme preference: remembering whether you chose light or dark mode.
- Saved names: the villain names you star in the generator, so they survive a page reload.
You can clear both at any time through your browser's "clear site data" setting, or by using the Clear all button in the saved names panel. Clearing them affects nothing but those two conveniences.
4. Third-Party Services
We use Google Analytics as described above. Fonts are self-hosted, and the name generator itself runs without contacting any external API.
Two ordinary exceptions apply. First, our hosting provider processes requests in order to deliver the site to you. Second, if you use the contact form while no mail endpoint is configured, your browser's own email application opens with the message ready for you to send — nothing is transmitted to us until you press send in that application.
Some of our guides link out to third-party websites. This policy does not cover those sites, and we encourage you to review their policies before sharing anything with them.
5. Data Sharing and Disclosure
Villain Name Generator does not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share information only in the following circumstances:
- When required by law or to comply with legal processes
- To protect the rights, property, or safety of Villain Name Generator, our users, or others
- With service providers who assist in operating our website, subject to confidentiality agreements
6. Data Retention
Contact form submissions are retained only as long as necessary to resolve your inquiry. Server logs are kept by our host for a short operational window and are not analysed at an individual level. Generator inputs are never stored on our servers, because they never reach our servers in the first place.
7. Children's Privacy
Villain Name Generator is a creative tool suitable for users of all ages, including students and hobby writers building characters and stories. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can promptly delete it.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
- Request correction or deletion of your personal data
- Object to our processing of your information
In practice the only personal information we ever hold is what you type into the contact form, so these requests are usually straightforward for us to honour.
To exercise any of these rights, please reach out through our Contact Us page.
9. Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the limited information we collect. Our website uses HTTPS encryption to ensure secure data transmission. However, no method of internet transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
