Privacy Policy

1. Information we store on your device

We do not require an account. To run the game and remember your choices, the Site uses browser local storage and session storage on your device. This may include:

• Cookie / privacy preference (accept or reject)
• Game progress: daily puzzle id, guesses, stats, timers, hints, and related game state
• Whether you have seen onboarding or help content
• A session value so we can return you to the game after visiting legal pages

This data stays on your device unless you clear site data in your browser. We do not receive a copy of your local storage on our servers as part of normal play.

2. Information our host and network may process

Like any website, when you load pages the Site is delivered through hosting infrastructure (for example, Vercel). Standard server and network logs may include your IP address, browser type, request time, and URLs requested. We use this only to operate and secure the service, not to build a personal profile on our side.

3. Advertising (Google AdSense)

We use Google AdSense to show ads. Google may use cookies, mobile advertising IDs, or similar technologies to serve and measure ads, including personalized ads where allowed. Google’s use of data is described here:

• Google Privacy Policy
• How Google uses information from sites that use its services
• Google's use of cookies in advertising

You can manage some ad personalization in Google Ads Settings. You can also use industry opt-out tools where available in your region.

4. Cookies and similar technologies

We and our partners use cookies and similar technologies as described in our Cookie Policy. The banner on the Site lets you accept or reject non-essential cookies where our implementation supports that choice; some regions may have additional requirements for personalized ads.

5. Children

The Site is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have done so, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

6. International users

Visitors may access the Site from many countries. Where laws such as the GDPR or UK GDPR apply, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain processing, and to object or lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Because we do not operate logged-in accounts, much of what we “hold” is processed by third parties such as Google; you may exercise choices through them as linked above.

California (CCPA/CPRA): We do not sell your personal information for money. Advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to deliver and measure ads, which can be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under California law in some cases. You can use Google’s tools and browser controls to limit such uses.

7. Retention

Local game data remains until you clear it. Server logs are kept only as long as needed for security and operations. Google retains data according to its policies.

8. Your choices

• Clear site data in your browser to reset local game storage
• Adjust cookies and tracking in browser settings
• Use Google Ads Settings and similar tools for ad personalization
• Contact us using the email below

9. Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the Site after changes means you accept the revised policy.
