The short version
We collect the words you search and some basic usage data to keep the tools fast and reliable. We do not require an account, we do not sell your personal information, and you can clear your local data any time.
What we collect
The words you look up, plus basic device and usage data that helps the tools run. No sign-up or personal profile required to play.
How we use it
To return fast results, remember your settings, fix bugs, and understand which features players actually enjoy.
Who we share it with
Only the service providers that keep the site online and measure traffic. We never sell your personal information.
Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how our word-game and word-unscrambler website (“the Service”) collects, uses, and protects information when you use it. It applies to the tools, dictionaries, and pages offered on this site.
By using the Service, you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service. This is a general-purpose template written in plain language and is not legal advice.
Information We Collect
We aim to collect as little as possible. The information we may collect falls into a few simple buckets:
- Game input: the letters and words you enter into the unscrambler, filters, and word lists you browse.
- Usage data: pages viewed, features used, approximate session length, and referring links.
- Device data: browser type, operating system, screen size, and a coarse region inferred from your IP address.
- Preferences: settings such as sort order or theme, stored locally in your browser.
We do not ask for your name, address, or payment details to use the core tools. If you email us, we receive whatever you choose to include in that message.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information above to operate and improve the Service. In practice that means:
- Returning accurate word results and remembering your on-device preferences.
- Diagnosing bugs, preventing abuse, and keeping the site secure and available.
- Understanding which tools and word lists are popular so we can improve them.
- Measuring aggregate traffic through privacy-conscious analytics.
We do not use your game input to build advertising profiles about you, and we do not sell it.
Cookies & Local Storage
Cookies and local storage are small files a site keeps in your browser. We use them to remember preferences, keep the Service running smoothly, and gather anonymous statistics about how the site is used.
You can block or delete this storage through your browser settings. Doing so may reset your saved preferences but will not stop the core tools from working.
How We Share Information
We share information only in the limited situations below, and never in exchange for money:
- Service providers: hosting, content delivery, and analytics vendors that operate the Service on our behalf.
- Legal reasons: when required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, and security of our users and the Service.
- Business transfers: if the Service is ever involved in a merger or acquisition, data may transfer as part of that deal.
Any provider we work with is expected to handle information responsibly and only for the purposes we specify.
Data Security & Retention
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we handle. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We keep information only as long as it is useful for the purposes above, or as required by law, and then delete or anonymize it. Aggregated statistics that no longer identify anyone may be kept indefinitely.
Your Rights & Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information, and to object to certain processing. Because we collect very little that identifies you, these requests are usually simple to honor.
To exercise any of these choices, contact us using the details at the bottom of this page and we will respond within a reasonable time.
Children's Privacy
The Service is intended for a general audience and is not directed at young children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to remove it.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time as the Service evolves. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
If the changes are significant, we will make a reasonable effort to highlight them. Continuing to use the Service after an update means you accept the revised policy.
Still have questions?
We are real people, not a legal department. If anything here is unclear, or you want to know what data we hold about you, drop us a line and we will help.
