Privacy Policy

Last updated: 27 July 2026. This policy explains what information Wordscramblepedia collects, how it is used, and the choices you have. In short: the word tools run in your browser, and we do not collect or store the letters or words you enter.

Information we collect

Wordscramblepedia does not require an account and does not ask for personal information. The letters, racks and clues you type into our tools are processed entirely in your browser (client-side) and are not transmitted to or saved on our servers. Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically log standard technical data — such as IP address, browser type and pages visited — for security and to keep the site running. This log data is not used to identify you personally.

Cookies and advertising

Wordscramblepedia is supported by advertising. We use Google AdSense to display ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
• You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
• You can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info/choices and, in Europe, at youronlinechoices.eu.

Third-party ad networks may also use cookies, web beacons and similar technologies to measure ad performance. We do not control these third-party cookies. Your browser settings let you block or delete cookies at any time, though some site features may behave differently as a result.

Analytics

We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate traffic (for example, which tools are most used). Any such data is aggregated and not used to identify individual visitors.

Children's privacy

Our tools are suitable for general audiences, including classroom use, but the site is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. Because advertising is present, we recommend adult supervision for younger users.

Your choices

You can control cookies through your browser, opt out of personalised ads using the links above, and use the site without providing any personal information. Because the tools are client-side, clearing your browser data removes anything stored locally.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site evolves or as legal requirements change. Material changes will be reflected by the "last updated" date above.
