Legal & Privacy

The rules of the road, in plain language.
Last updated: January 2026

01 Terms of Use

By accessing or using Your Online Helper ("the Site"), you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

The Site is provided free of charge, on an as-is basis, for personal and educational use. You agree not to:

We may suspend or discontinue the Site at any time without notice.

02 Privacy Policy

We do not collect personal information. Your Online Helper has no accounts, no logins, no advertising trackers, and no analytics pixels. Each tool runs entirely in your browser.

Standard web server logs may be kept by whoever hosts the Site. Those logs typically include IP addresses, user-agent strings, and request paths, and are used only for security and diagnostics.

If you contact us via the Contact page, the information you submit (name, email, subject, and message) is used only to reply to your enquiry. See the Contact page for how that form handles your data.

03 Data Stored on Your Device

Several tools save their state locally using your browser's localStorage or sessionStorage. This data never leaves your device and is never transmitted to us. Specifically:

You can clear any tool's saved data at any time using the "clear all" button inside that tool, or by clearing your browser's site data for this domain.

Shared device warning: The Password Generator saves your recent passwords locally so you can copy them again if needed. If you use a shared or public computer, clear the Password Generator's history (or your entire browser data) before leaving. Passwords stored in your browser are visible to anyone else who can access your browser profile on that device.

04 Installing as an App (PWA)

Your Online Helper can be installed as a Progressive Web App (PWA). When you install it:

The cached files are managed by your browser. Clearing your browser's site data or cache will remove the installed app and its offline copy. Your tool settings and histories are also stored in your browser — see Privacy at a glance for the short version, or Section 03 above for the full list.

Uninstalling the app does not delete your saved tool data unless you also clear your browser's site data.

05 Lottery Picker Notice

The Lottery Picker is a random number generator provided for entertainment purposes only. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any official lottery operator, including but not limited to Powerball, Mega Millions, EuroMillions, Lotto 6/49, or the UK National Lottery. All lottery names and formats are used solely to describe the number of balls and range used by that draw.

Numbers generated by this tool are produced by your own device's random source at the moment you click "Pick numbers." We do not see, store, or transmit them.

Important:
  • Every possible combination has exactly the same probability. No tool, system, or pattern can improve your odds of winning any lottery.
  • This tool does not purchase tickets, enter you in any draw, or increase your chance of winning a prize.
  • Lottery participation is governed by the laws of your jurisdiction. It is your responsibility to know and comply with them. In many places, you must be 18 or older to buy a ticket.
  • Gambling can be addictive. If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, please seek help. Resources are available in most countries — for example, the National Council on Problem Gambling (US) at ncpgambling.org or GamCare (UK) at gamcare.org.uk.

Please play responsibly.

06 Password Generator Notice

The Password Generator creates random passwords entirely on your device using your browser's crypto.getRandomValues() interface — the same cryptographically secure source browsers use for security-sensitive values. No password is transmitted, logged, or stored on any server.

Please be aware:
  • The generator saves your last 15 passwords to your browser's local storage so you can copy them again if needed. Anyone with access to your browser profile on this device can see them.
  • Use the "clear all" button when you're finished, especially on a shared or public computer.
  • Never reuse the same password across multiple important accounts. Use a dedicated password manager for long-term storage.
  • This tool helps you generate strong passwords but does not replace good security habits.

07 General Disclaimers

All tools are provided for informational and educational purposes only. They are not a substitute for professional advice.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Site is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

08 Third-Party Services

Some tools contact external services to function:

Each third-party service has its own terms and privacy practices. We are not responsible for their behavior. If you prefer not to involve any third party, avoid the tools that use them.

09 Intellectual Property

Your Online Helper's source code, layout, styling, and written content are the property of their respective authors. You may read, learn from, and — where a repository or license explicitly permits — reuse or modify the code, provided you comply with that license.

Third-party names, logos, and trademarks (including website names checked via SitePulse, lottery names referenced by the Lottery Picker, and Little Ink Pot branding in the recommendation banner) belong to their respective owners and are used for identification or reference only. Their appearance does not imply endorsement.

10 Changes to These Terms

These terms may be updated from time to time. When that happens, the "Last updated" date at the top of this page will change. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

11 Contact

Questions about these terms? Use the Contact page. Since Your Online Helper is a self-hosted, static project, you can also reach out to the person or organization running the site you accessed it from.

Plain-language summary: use the tools freely, don't abuse them, your data stays on your device, results are estimates not guarantees, the Lottery Picker is purely for fun and cannot improve your odds, and the Password Generator saves your recent passwords locally — clear them on shared devices. That's the gist.
