Privacy Policy

At NameLoop, we're committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our free startup name generator and domain checking service.

What Information We Collect

Information You Provide

• Business Ideas: When you use our name generator, you provide us with your startup idea or business description (limited to 75 characters). This information is temporarily stored in your browser session to generate name suggestions and is not permanently saved.
• Domain Queries: When you check domain availability, you provide domain names for us to check. These queries are processed in real-time and not stored.

Information Collected Automatically

• Usage Data: We collect information about how you interact with our service, including pages visited, features used, and time spent on the site. This helps us improve our service.
• Technical Data: We automatically collect your IP address, browser type, device information, and operating system for security and analytics purposes.
• Cookies: We use cookies to maintain your session and remember your preferences. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site.

How We Use Your Information

• To Generate Names: We use your business idea input to generate startup name suggestions using AI technology (OpenAI). Your input is sent to OpenAI's API to create personalized name suggestions.
• To Check Domain Availability: We use your domain queries to check availability via WHOIS lookups and third-party APIs. We check multiple domain extensions (.com, .org, .net, .io, .co, .us) and social media platforms (Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Reddit).
• To Improve Our Service: We analyze usage patterns to understand how our service is used and make improvements.
• For Security: We monitor for fraudulent activity and protect against abuse of our service.

• Domain Checking Services: We use WHOIS lookups and API calls to check domain availability across multiple extensions (.com, .org, .net, .io, .co, .us).
• Social Media APIs: We check username availability on Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Reddit by making API calls to these platforms.
