Privacy
Last updated 13 November 2026, America/New_York.
In short
- No personal data is collected.
- There are no accounts.
- No photo uploads.
- A first name you type is a lookup in a public statistical file. It is not treated as identifying a particular person.
- Analytics are off. If they are later turned on, they would be Cloudflare Web Analytics only — cookieless and aggregate, with no personal data.
What this site does not collect
We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not run a server that receives the name you type. We cannot see what you type. This page does not accept photo uploads.
Where your data lives
The official SSA name counts are static files served with this page. A name you type is looked up in those files in your browser. This site does not store that query on a server. Because nothing is sent to a server operated by this page, there is no personal data here for us to look up, correct, or delete.
Share links
A share link may include the first name you looked up, and an optional SSA sex code (F or M), as a query string such as ?name=Emma or ?name=Emma&sex=F. That word is a query of a public statistical file, the same way a dictionary lookup is a query of a word — it is not personal data identifying a particular person, and it is not a record about anyone who bears that name. The link does not include a surname, a birth date, an address, or any other personal detail. If you save or copy a chart, that file lives wherever you put it — that is your choice, not a collection by this site.
Analytics
Cloudflare Web Analytics is wired but off. If it is later approved and turned on, it would be the only analytics on this site: cookieless and aggregate page views, with no personal data and no cookies that identify you. We would not add any other analytics, advertising, or tracker. The privacy notice would be updated the same day if that status changes.
Children
This site is for a general audience. It is not directed at children under 13. Do not enter personal information about a child (a full name, a birth date, an address). Typing a first name here looks that word up in a public statistical file; it does not create a record about a child.
Who we are
This is an independent Venture Lab test. It is not public. The domain namebydecade.com is registered, but this site has not gone live. It is not affiliated with Graeme Industrial or Tolana Water, and it is not a U.S. government site. The Social Security Administration does not endorse this page. This page is a plain-language notice about how the test is built; it is not a legal opinion.
