Disclosure
Most sites publish a disclosure page because a network they joined requires one. This is the opposite case: there is nothing to disclose yet, and saying so plainly is worth more than a page of hedged language that leaves a reader guessing. Here is exactly what the outbound links on this site are, what they are not, and what would have to change before this page said something different.
Outbound links on the commercial generators
A name for a company, a band, a team or a handle is only useful if it is actually free to take, and this site cannot tell you that. So the generators aimed at real-world naming send you somewhere that can: a domain registrar’s search for a business or startup name, or a platform’s own handle search for a username, gamertag, streamer or clan name. The generators that carry those links are Business, Startup, Band, Team, Streamer, Gamertag, Clan and Username.
The link exists because checking is the step people skip, not because clicking it earns anything here. Nothing on this site is a substitute for a real check, and a name this site produced can already belong to somebody: nothing is ever tested against a trademark register, a company register, a domain registry or a platform’s handle list.
The affiliate position, stated exactly
As of 5 August 2026, NameForge is not enrolled in any affiliate programme. The outbound links described above carry no affiliate tracking of any kind: no partner identifier, no referral code, no tagged parameter, no redirect through a tracking service. If you click one, nobody here is paid, and nobody there knows you came from a partner.
That is a current fact rather than a permanent vow. If it ever changes, three things happen at once and none of them quietly: every paid link gets rel="sponsored nofollow", the generator pages carrying such links say so on the page itself, and this page is rewritten to name the programme and the date it started. Until you read that here, the answer is the one above.
What you will not find on this page: a commission rate, a partner name, a discount code or a phrase like "we may earn a commission". Those belong on a page that has something to disclose. Writing them pre-emptively would be inventing a relationship that does not exist.
Advertising
No advertising script loads on this site. Not an ad network, not a header bidder, not a consent-management platform serving ad vendors. There is no sponsored placement, no paid review, no paid inclusion in any list of generators, and no arrangement under which anything on the site is ranked, ordered or featured in exchange for money.
What is sent, and where
Nothing you type or generate is sent anywhere. Names are built in your browser by the same code the pages ship with, so no request carries a generated name off your device. There is no analytics profile of you, no advertising identifier and no third-party embed collecting a page view as a side effect.
Favourites are the one thing the site remembers, and it remembers them in your browser’s local storage. They never reach a server, they are not attached to an account because there are no accounts, and clearing your browser data deletes them for good. A different browser or a different device shows a different, empty list, which is the honest consequence of not storing them anywhere central. The privacy page covers the rest.
Why disclose any of this
A name generator that quietly sends you to a registrar has an obvious incentive to push you toward buying, and you have no way to see whether it is doing that. The only useful answer is a page that says what the arrangement is, dated, in words that would have to be rewritten if the arrangement changed. That is what this page is for. The open corpus and the public API exist for the same reason: everything the site runs on is inspectable, so nothing about it has to be taken on trust.
