Who we are

The Dictionary of Color Combinations (colorcombinations.org) is a color reference and design resource inspired by Sanzo Wada's 1933 dictionary. You can contact us at [email protected].

What data we collect

We collect limited, anonymised data to understand how the site is used and to improve it:

• Analytics: We use Plausible Analytics — a privacy-first analytics tool that does not use cookies, does not collect personal data, and does not track you across sites. No IP addresses are stored. Data is aggregated only.
• Third-party advertising: We may display advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google uses cookies and other identifiers to show relevant ads based on your browsing activity. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. Learn more about how Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps.
• Affiliate links: Some links on this site (books, design tools) are affiliate links. If you click through and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. These links do not set cookies on this site.

Cookies

Our own analytics (Plausible) are cookieless and do not require consent. Google AdSense, when active, may set cookies on your device to personalise advertising. You can opt out of personalised advertising at any time via Google Ads Settings or the NAI opt-out tool.

A cookie consent banner is shown on first visit. You can manage your advertising preferences at any time using the "Cookie Preferences" link in the footer.

Data sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal data to third parties. We share anonymised usage data only with the analytics and advertising partners described above.

Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, or request deletion of data held about you. Because we do not collect personal data directly, the most relevant data requests should be directed to Google. To contact us, email [email protected].

EU / EEA / UK users

Under the GDPR and UK GDPR, you have additional rights including the right to object to processing and to lodge a complaint with your national supervisory authority. For personalised advertising by Google in the EEA/UK, a Google-certified Consent Management Platform (CMP) controls the consent flow.

California users (CCPA)

California residents may opt out of the "sale" of personal information. We do not sell personal information. To opt out of interest-based advertising by Google, use Google Ads Settings.

Children

This site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

External links

This site contains links to external resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy periodically. The "Last updated" date at the top of the page reflects when changes were last made.
