Who we are
RandomFacts.net (“we,” “us”) is a free educational site for browsing random facts, taking quizzes, and embedding a facts widget. This policy explains what information is involved when you use the site.
Legal
Privacy policy
Clear, short, and honest—built for a free facts site that doesn’t need your life story.
Last updated: September 23, 2026
No account needed
You can use the site without creating a profile or giving us your name or email.
Favorites stay local
Saved facts and achievement progress live in your browser’s storage on that device.
Minimal tracking
We may use light, aggregated analytics to understand what pages are useful—not to sell your data.
Information we don’t require
We don’t require an account. We don’t ask for your name, email, phone number, or payment details to browse facts, use the quiz, save favorites locally, or view This Day in History.
Information stored on your device
To make the experience better, your browser may store data locally (for example via localStorage), such as favorite fact IDs, achievement progress, and similar preferences. This data stays on your device unless you clear site data, use private browsing, or switch browsers/devices.
Analytics and usage data
Like many websites, we may use privacy-respecting analytics (such as Vercel Analytics or similar tools) to see aggregated traffic—page views, popular routes, and rough device/browser trends. This helps improve the site. We don’t sell personal profiles to advertisers.
Cookies and similar technologies
We use minimal cookies or similar storage needed for the site to work and for basic analytics. You can block or clear cookies in your browser settings; some features (like remembering progress) may not work the same way if storage is disabled.
Embedded widget
If you embed the RandomFacts widget on another website, that site’s own privacy policy also applies to its visitors. The widget loads facts from RandomFacts.net and should keep the “Powered by RandomFacts” attribution visible.
Children
Content is meant to be family-friendly and educational. We don’t knowingly collect personal information from children. Parents and teachers can use the site freely without creating accounts for students.
Third-party links
Our pages may link to social platforms or other sites. Their privacy practices are their own—please read their policies when you leave RandomFacts.net.
Changes to this policy
We may update this page as the product evolves. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
