When you use wordle.design, we may collect information that you provide directly, such as your name, email address, subject, and message when you contact us. If account features are added in the future, we may collect account-related information such as login details, plan information, and preferences.
We may also collect basic technical information such as browser type, device type, IP address, pages visited, referring URLs, and usage events to help us understand how the site is used and improve performance.

We may use information to:
- provide and improve wordle.design
- respond to support or contact requests
- maintain website security
- understand site usage and performance
- improve puzzle creation, themes, templates, and sharing features
- communicate important updates when needed
- prevent abuse, spam, or misuse of the platform
Custom Puzzle Data
When users Create Your Own Wordle, the platform may process puzzle-related information such as the secret word, optional hint, theme choices, puzzle settings, and shareable puzzle link. This information is used to generate and display the custom puzzle experience.
Users should avoid adding sensitive personal information into puzzle words, hints, titles, or public puzzle content.
Cookies & Analytics
wordle.design may use cookies or similar technologies to improve site functionality, remember preferences, measure traffic, and understand how visitors interact with the site.
Analytics tools may collect aggregated usage information such as page views, device type, browser type, and interaction events. These insights help us improve the website and user experience.
Sharing & Public Links
If you create a shareable puzzle link, anyone with access to that link may be able to view or play the puzzle. Be careful when sharing links publicly, especially if the puzzle contains personal or private information.
Third-Party Services
wordle.design may use third-party services for hosting, analytics, security, email delivery, contact forms, payment processing, or other website features. These providers may process information according to their own privacy policies.
If payment features are added, payment details should be handled by secure third-party payment processors, not stored directly by wordle.design.
Data Retention
We may retain information only as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, respond to requests, improve the website, meet legal obligations, prevent abuse, or maintain security.
Puzzle data, contact messages, analytics data, and account-related information may have different retention periods depending on how the platform evolves.
Data Security
We aim to use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. However, no website or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Children's Privacy
wordle.design is intended for general audiences. If teachers or parents use the platform with students or children, they should avoid entering sensitive personal information into puzzle content. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child where parental consent is required, we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
Your Rights & Choices
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to certain uses of your personal information. You may also contact us with privacy-related questions or requests.
