Data Protection & Privacy Policy

Effective Date: July 20, 2026

At NamEngine LLC ("NamEngine," "we," "our," or "us"), we believe that choosing a name is one of life’s most meaningful decisions. The information you choose to share with us is personal, and we are committed to treating it with care, respect, and transparency.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how we protect it, and the choices available to you when using our website, applications, and services (collectively, the "Services").

By using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

Our Privacy Commitment

Your trust is important to us, and protecting your privacy is one of our highest priorities.

We never sell your personal information.

We do not share your personal information with any third party for their own marketing, advertising, or commercial purposes.

We share information only when it is necessary to operate, secure, maintain, or provide the NamEngine services you request. When we do, we work only with trusted service providers that are contractually required to protect your information and may use it only to perform services on our behalf.

We collect only the information reasonably necessary to personalize your experience, improve our Services, maintain security, and support our users.

Providing this information is optional unless it is required for a specific feature.

Like most modern websites and applications, we automatically collect limited technical information that helps us operate, secure, and improve our Services.

This information may include:

• IP address
• Browser type
• Device type
• Operating system
• Approximate geographic location
• Referring website
• Pages visited
• Session information

4. Artificial Intelligence Processing

To generate personalized naming recommendations, NamEngine securely uses trusted artificial intelligence technology providers.

Information is shared only as necessary to provide the recommendations you request and is handled in accordance with contractual privacy and security obligations.

We do not sell your personal information to AI providers, and they may not use your information for their own marketing or commercial purposes.

For additional information about how AI recommendations are generated, please see our AI Disclosures & Responsible Use page.

5. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Maintain secure sessions
• Remember your preferences
• Improve website performance
• Analyze how our Services are used
• Enhance your overall experience
• Support checkout continuity

Some cookies are strictly necessary for requested site features to work. For example, when you choose paid access, NamEngine may set a short-lived checkout continuity cookie named namengine_access_return_*. This cookie remembers the NamEngine results session you came from so that, after checkout, we can return you to the same list instead of starting a new one. It expires after about one hour and does not contain payment card information.

You may disable cookies through your browser settings, although some features may not function properly. If we add non-essential analytics, advertising, or cross-context behavioral marketing cookies, we will update this notice and provide any legally required choices.

6. Payment Information

Payments are processed by trusted third-party payment providers. NamEngine does not store complete credit card numbers or payment credentials on our servers.

Payment information is governed by the privacy policies of the applicable payment provider.

7. When We Share Information

We never sell your personal information.

We do not share your personal information with any third party for their own marketing, advertising, or commercial purposes.

We may share information only when necessary with trusted service providers that help us operate the Services, including providers of:

• Secure cloud hosting
• Artificial intelligence services
• Payment processing
• Website analytics
• Authentication
• Customer support
• Communications
• Infrastructure and security

These providers may access information only to perform services on our behalf and are contractually required to protect your information.

We may also disclose information when required by law or when necessary to protect the rights, safety, or security of NamEngine, our users, or others.

8. Protecting Your Information

Protecting your information is a priority for us.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
