YOUR BROWSER, YOUR LISTS
A simple tool, with local saves.
Name Wheel Spinner works without an account. The app keeps your wheels and recent results in your browser, rather than sending them to an application database.
What the app stores on your device
The app uses browser local storage for your current wheel, saved-wheel library, recent result history and sound/motion preferences. That can include the labels and weights you enter, the names you give saved wheels and the results you draw.
These saves belong to this browser on this device. They are not an account, an online backup or a cross-device sync service. Private browsing, browser settings, storage limits or clearing site data may remove them.
Anyone who can use the same browser profile may be able to view this information. Avoid entering private details on a shared or public computer.
What happens when you visit the site
This version of Name Wheel Spinner has no analytics integration, account system or server-side wheel saving. Your typed entries and spin results are processed in your browser; the app does not submit them to a wheel-storage server.
Your browser still requests the site’s pages and assets from the hosting service. The hosting provider may log ordinary request information, such as an IP address, requested URL, browser information and request time. This page does not promise that hosting logs are absent or specify a retention period for them.
Preset links contain a template name, such as the dinner template. They do not package the custom entries in your current wheel. Avoid putting personal information into URLs yourself.
Sharing links, images and exported files
The Share control encodes wheel names and entries into a URL fragment. The app does not send that fragment to a wheel-storage server, but anyone who receives the link can read it. Links can remain in browser history and messages. Share links omit center images and result history; avoid using them for sensitive information.
Center images are read locally from files you select and kept with your wheel in browser storage. Exported wheel files may include these images and result history. No image is uploaded by the app.
Import reads a selected JSON wheel file in the browser. Export creates a JSON copy that you can save, transfer or share. An exported file can contain the labels and other wheel information you entered, including names or personal details if you added them.
Treat these files like any other document containing that information. Check the contents before sharing, choose the recipient carefully and remember that downloads may be backed up or synced by other software on your device.
How to remove saved data
Use your browser’s settings to clear site data for namewheelspinner.com. This removes the app’s local saves in that browser, including wheels and history. Export anything you want to keep first.
Clearing site data does not delete files you previously exported. Delete those separately from your downloads folder, storage service or backup if you no longer want them. It also does not remove copies you have shared with someone else.

Classroom rounds
Classroom rounds keeps your existing roster, absence settings, private history and projector view. Its fair-turn rules and conflict-aware saving stay separate from general-purpose wheels.
Projector mode is a visual presentation aid, not an access-control system. Do not share private rosters in links; sharing a studio wheel is an explicit choice and exposes its included labels to anyone with the link.
