Privacy

Short version: there are no accounts, we set no cookies of our own, and the characters you type into the generator never leave your browser.

The text you type

The worksheet is built in your browser. Your characters, your child's name in the title, the poem you pasted — none of it is sent to us, because there is nowhere for it to be sent: the page lays the sheet out locally and your browser prints it. The AI list builder, which would send a description you write to our server, is switched off.

Analytics

No analytics are running on this site at the moment. When they are, they will be Cloudflare Web Analytics — page views and referrers, no cookies, no fingerprinting, no tracking across sites — and this page will say so.

Advertising

There are no ads on this site at the moment. The layout reserves space for them, which is why you may see a gap: nothing is being loaded into it, and no ad network is being contacted.

Fonts and files

The Chinese typeface is served from this site, not from a font CDN, so loading a page does not tell a third party that you were here. Stroke-order data is fetched from this site only, and only when you switch stroke order on.

What we store in your browser

One preference: whether you chose simplified or traditional characters, remembered so the switch does not reset on every page. It stays in your browser and is never sent anywhere.

Children

The site is made for teachers and parents to print things for children. It asks for nothing from anyone, so there is nothing a child could submit to it.

There is no contact address on the site yet; see about.

52 of our 253 culture notes have been read by a person; the rest are AI drafts and say so on their own page. Each note is labelled for what it is — a way to remember a shape, or a custom — and none of them claims to be etymology without a source. How we write them.
