Privacy details

Animated text effects generator processes your input in this browser. Inputs and results are excluded from analytics. Recent tools save tool names, visit counts and last-visit times. Saved tools store only their names. Draft saving is optional and stays on this device; delete saved text with the draft controls. Loading text from a URL is optional and contacts that server; its URL and your IP address are visible to the server. An optional “Use in” action keeps a handoff in this tab. The next tool removes it on arrival and ignores it if more than a minute has passed.

Copy link includes the inputs you choose to share in the address. Anyone with that link can reopen them. Files and generated results are excluded. Password and key tools share settings only.

A worked example

The default animation alternates a small vertical movement with a fade. The text stays still when reduced motion is enabled.

Before you use the result

The download is HTML and CSS, not a GIF or video. Animation pauses in the preview when you choose Stop. A downloaded page follows the viewer’s reduced-motion setting.
