Privacy Policy

Find My Cat Name ("we", "us", "the site") publishes cat-name reference content at findmycatname.com. We built this site to be useful without being nosy, so we collect as little information about you as possible. This page explains what that means in practice.

The short version

• We don't ask you to create an account or hand over personal details.
• We don't use advertising or tracking cookies.
• Our analytics are privacy-friendly and don't identify you.
• We don't sell or share your information with data brokers.

Information we collect

We do not require you to register, log in, or submit personal information to use the site. The only data we process is the limited, aggregated usage information described below.

Analytics

We use a privacy-focused, self-hosted analytics service to understand how the site is used in aggregate — for example, which pages are popular and roughly where visitors come from. This service does not use cookies and does not collect or store personal data or information that could identify you. We use it only to count visits and improve the content we publish.

Server logs

Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically record standard technical information when you load a page, such as your approximate location, browser type, and the pages requested. This information is used to operate and secure the site and is not used to build a profile of you.

Cookies

Find My Cat Name does not set advertising or tracking cookies. If your browser stores anything for this site, it is limited to what is needed for the page to function. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings without affecting your ability to read the site.

Third-party services

A few external services help the site run. When you visit a page, your browser may contact them directly:

• Google Fonts — we load fonts from Google's servers, which means your IP address is visible to Google for the purpose of delivering the font files. See Google's Privacy Policy.
• Our hosting provider — serves the site's pages and may keep standard server logs as described above.

We also link to our profiles on Instagram and Facebook. If you follow those links, the privacy practices of those platforms apply, not ours.

Where our cat-name data comes from

The names, meanings, and popularity figures on this site are compiled from publicly available sources, including open city pet-license registries and Wikidata (released under CC0). This is reference data about pet names — it is not personal information about you.

Children's privacy

This site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your choices

Because we don't collect personal information or use tracking cookies, there is little for you to manage. You can browse the site without sharing identifying details, and you can control cookies and font loading through your browser or extensions at any time.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Significant changes will be reflected here.
