Privacy Policy | My9Maker

Overview

My9Maker (my9maker.com) lets you pick nine games, anime, movies or characters and turn them into a shareable 3×3 image. You do not need an account to use it.

What we store

Draft grids: the items you pick are saved in your browser (local storage) so you can come back to an unfinished grid.
Published grids: when you create a result page, we store its image, selections, optional name and notes, and creation time. Anyone with the result link can view it.
Explore: you can choose to have a published grid shown on our Explore page. Explore displays the categories and titles in the grid, not the optional name or notes you entered; the card links to the grid's page. You can remove a grid from Explore at any time.
Earlier grids on Explore: grids published before 26 October 2026 that have no name and no notes may also be shown on Explore, in the same way (categories and titles only). To remove one, email support@my9maker.com with its link.
Creation statistics: we store a random browser identifier in local storage and attach it to newly created results, together with the category, creation time, a test-mode flag and a keyed hash of the connecting IP address. These identifiers are private and are not displayed on result pages or sent to Google Analytics or Plausible. The hash lets us group creations from the same IP without storing the raw address in these records. Browser identifiers can change when storage is cleared; a shared IP does not identify a single person. These records are retained with the shared grid. Contact us using the result link for removal requests.
Search requests: game and movie searches go to our server, which passes the search text to a public database (IGDB, RAWG, Steam, TMDB or iTunes) to find matches. Anime and character searches go straight from your browser to AniList, so AniList sees your IP address and search text under its own privacy policy. We do not link searches to you.

We use Google Analytics and Plausible to understand how many people use the site and which pages they visit. Google Analytics only loads after you select Accept optional cookies in our privacy choices. Plausible is configured without cookies. You can change this choice through Cookie settings in the footer.

We use Google AdSense automatic ads across public pages, excluding shared-grid URLs under /u/ and private account, authentication, and payment pages. Google and its partners may use cookies, device identifiers or similar technologies to deliver and measure advertising, subject to the consent choices available in your region. You can manage personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings. See our Cookie Policy for more detail.

Third-party content

Names, covers and posters come from public databases and stores (IGDB, RAWG, Steam, TMDB, iTunes and AniList). Most covers load through our image proxy; AniList images load straight from AniList. All trademarks and artwork belong to their respective owners. To report material you believe infringes your rights, email support@my9maker.com with the page URL, a description of the work and material, and your contact details.
