What is a UUID v4?
A UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) version 4 is a randomly generated 128-bit identifier that is practically guaranteed to be unique. UUID v4 uses random or pseudo-random numbers and is the most commonly used UUID version.
The standard format is: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-yxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
- The 13th character is always
4(indicates version 4) - The 17th character is one of
8,9,a, orb(variant bits) - Remaining characters are randomly generated

Privacy & Security
Our UUID generator runs entirely in your browser using the Web Cryptography API'scrypto.getRandomValues()method. No data is sent to any server, ensuring complete privacy. The generated UUIDs are produced using a cryptographically secure random number generator, making them suitable for security-sensitive applications.
