The short version
The seating chart tools run entirely in your browser. The names you enter, your table layout and your keep-apart rules are saved to your own device using browser local storage. They are not transmitted to us and we never receive a copy of your guest list or class list.
Information you enter into the tools
- Where it is stored: in your browser's local storage, on your device only.
- Who can see it: anyone with access to that browser profile on that device. We cannot see it.
- How to delete it: use the Reset button in the tool, or clear site data for this domain in your browser settings.
- Retention: it stays until you delete it. We do not control it and cannot delete it for you.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our hosting provider records standard server request data such as IP address, browser type, referring page and time of request. This is used for security and aggregate traffic measurement.
We may use privacy-focused analytics to understand which pages are used. Where analytics are in use, they measure page views and general usage patterns, not the contents of your seating charts.
Google AdSense and advertising cookies
This site is supported by advertising and may display ads served by Google AdSense. When AdSense is active, Google and its advertising partners may use cookies, local storage, device identifiers, IP addresses and similar technologies to deliver, measure and protect ads, limit how often an ad appears, prevent fraud and produce aggregate reporting. Advertising data is not connected to the guest names, class lists or seating layouts stored by this tool in your browser.
Google may use advertising cookies to show personalised ads based on your activity on this and other websites. If you do not consent to personalised advertising, Google may show non-personalised or limited ads based on contextual information such as the page you are viewing and your general location. Learn more in Google's advertising technologies policy and Google's Privacy Policy.
Consent choices and personalised ads
For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, a Google-certified consent management platform may ask for consent before Google or its partners use cookies or personal data for advertising where consent is legally required. You can accept, reject or manage the available purposes and vendors. Refusing personalised advertising does not prevent you from using the seating chart tools.
You can review or change your advertising choices through the privacy or consent controls shown on the site when available. You can also manage personalised ads in Google Ads Settings and opt out of some participating third-party vendors through WebChoices. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although doing so may reset your consent choice.
Children, your rights, and changes to this policy
This site is intended for adults, including teachers who may enter student names into the classroom tool. Because those names remain on the teacher's own device and are never transmitted to us, we do not receive or store information about children.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal data held about you. Because the data you enter into the tools never reaches us, in most cases there is nothing for us to retrieve or erase — you can delete it yourself at any time by clearing site data. If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new last-updated date.
