Accounts
When you create an account, we store the username, email address, password hash, and registration information needed to operate it. Session cookies keep you signed in. Do not use your YoWorld or Facebook password here.
Saved items
The no-account wishlist is stored in this browser’s local storage. It is not synchronized across devices or sent to our server. Remove individual items on the Saved page, or clear this site’s browser storage to remove the list.
Tools and drafts
Calculator preferences, your current plan and paintboard draft stay in browser storage unless you explicitly save or import a copy to your account. Clear this site’s browser storage to remove them. Paintboard artwork and item details are fetched from public catalog services; downloaded PNG files stay on your device.
Account collections and sharing
When you save or import an account collection, we store its name, item list, quantities and tool settings on our server so you can use it across devices. Collections are private by default. Creating a sharing link publishes a read-only copy of the saved collection, including any entered prices, for anyone who has the link. Later edits remain private until you update the shared version. Stop sharing or archive the collection to invalidate the link. Copies already made by viewers are not removed. Shared collection pages have no ads or Google Analytics.
Anonymous tool usage
We count page opens and tool actions in daily totals on our own server to understand which features are useful. These counters do not store account identifiers, IP addresses, browser identifiers, search terms, collection names, item lists, entered prices or sharing links. They use no cookies or browser storage. We retain roughly one year of daily totals. Browser counters respect Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control; successful collection saves and sharing changes also contribute anonymous server totals. Counts can include repeat visits and staff activity.
