Privacy details

Random color 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.

Your result

Reset reloads the tool with its starting values and releases open files and device controls. Saved drafts stay on this device until you delete them.

Links include your inputs and settings. Anyone with the link can see them, so leave out private text. Files and generated results are left out; random draws run again.

A color you can use immediately

Each channel is drawn independently from 0 through 255. Generate one color or a set, then copy the same colors as HEX, RGB or CSS variables.

Next: Color picker

A worked example

RGB 255, 0, 0 is HEX #FF0000. Changing the output format keeps the colors you already drew.

Next: Color palette generator

Before you use the result

These are random sRGB colors, not a guaranteed accessible palette. Check foreground and background contrast before using them for text.
