Is this password generator secure?

Yes. All passwords are generated directly in your browser (client-side). We do not store, transmit, or see any passwords you create. Your security and privacy are paramount.

What makes a password 'strong'?

A strong password is typically long (12+ characters), uses a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols, and is unique to each account. It should not contain easily guessable information like birthdays or common words.

How do the 'Easy', 'Medium', and 'Ultra' generators differ?

They differ in default length and character sets. 'Easy' is for simpler passwords (letters/numbers). 'Medium' adds special characters and increases length. 'Ultra' creates very long, complex passwords for maximum security needs.

Why should I use different passwords for different accounts?

If one of your accounts is compromised and you use the same password elsewhere, attackers can gain access to all those accounts. Unique passwords limit the damage of a single breach.

What is a password manager and should I use one?

A password manager is a tool that securely stores all your unique passwords. It can also help generate strong passwords and auto-fill them on websites. Using one is highly recommended for good password hygiene.

How does the password strength meter work?

Our strength meter uses an algorithm (based on zxcvbn) to estimate the time it would take for a computer to crack your password. It considers length, character variety, and common patterns.

Can I save the passwords I generate?

This tool offers a session-based history. For permanent and secure storage, we strongly recommend using a dedicated password manager.

Are there any risks to using an online password generator?

The main risk would be if the generator stored or transmitted your passwords insecurely. Our tool avoids this by performing all operations client-side. Always ensure you're using a reputable generator on a secure (HTTPS) connection.
