Beads Designer Tool saves your designs in your own browser on your device. They are not sent to us.

If you use your own photo in Try on, it stays on your device. It is not uploaded, stored or shared.

Buying and unlocking

You buy Beads Designer Tool on Etsy, which handles the payment under its own privacy policy. We never see your card details.

To unlock the designer, it sends your Etsy order number and a random ID it creates for your device, which is not linked to your name. It checks again about once a day. We keep the order number, the device IDs and the dates they were used, to confirm your purchase, manage the device limit and handle refunds. A device that hasn’t opened the designer for 60 days is removed when a new device needs its place.

To stop order numbers being guessed, unlock attempts are counted per visitor for a few minutes. The count is kept against a scrambled, one-way version of the visitor’s IP address, never the address itself, and is deleted within a day.

Hosting, fonts and scripts

The site runs on Cloudflare, which processes your browser’s request to deliver the pages. The site loads its fonts from Google Fonts, so Google may receive your browser’s IP address when a page loads. When you send a design to another device by QR code, the QR code maker is loaded from cdnjs (Cloudflare); the design itself is not sent to them.

Cookies and tracking

Beads Designer Tool does not use advertising or tracking cookies.
