Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to the ETH Vanity Generator, a free, open-source, client-side web utility that allows users to generate Ethereum vanity addresses directly in their browser. We are fully committed to protecting your privacy. This tool operates on a zero-data-collection principle. All address generation, including private key creation and prefix matching, happens exclusively on your device. We do not collect, store, transmit, or process any personal information or generated keys. This Privacy Policy explains our practices in detail.

2. Information We Do Not Collect

The ETH Vanity Generator is designed as a completely stateless static site. We do not gather any data whatsoever, including:

  • Personal Information: No names, email addresses, IP addresses, or any identifiers.
  • Generated Keys or Addresses: Private keys, public keys, and vanity addresses are created and remain solely in your browser.
  • Usage Data: No tracking of visits, browser details, device information, or interaction patterns.
  • Analytics or Logs: We do not use cookies, analytics scripts, server logs, or any monitoring tools.

Everything you input or generate stays on your local machine and is never sent anywhere.

3. How the Tool Works

When you use the ETH Vanity Generator:

  • Local Processing: You enter a desired hex prefix. The tool uses the ethers.js library to repeatedly generate random private keys, derive addresses via Keccak-256 hashing, and check for matches—all within your browser using JavaScript.
  • No Network Requests During Generation: After initial page load, no data leaves your device. Copy-to-clipboard and display functions are handled natively by the browser.
  • Static Hosting: The site is deployed on GitHub Pages with no backend server, database, or logging capabilities.

This architecture guarantees complete privacy and data isolation.

4. Third-Party Services

We load Bootstrap CSS and JS from a public CDN solely for styling and layout. These resources do not track users or set cookies in this context. No other external services are used.

5. Cookies and Tracking

This site does not use cookies, localStorage persistence, session storage beyond temporary needs, or any tracking technologies. Your experience is entirely stateless.

6. Security Note

While we collect nothing, browser-based key generation carries inherent risks. Generated keys should never hold significant funds without additional precautions. Users are responsible for their own device security.

7. Children's Privacy

The tool is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. Changes will be reflected here with a new effective date.

Your privacy is our priority. By using the ETH Vanity Generator, you acknowledge this no-collection policy and accept responsibility for securely handling any generated keys.
