Welcome to WorldUnscrambler.com ("we," "our," or "the Site"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our free word unscrambler tool. We are committed to protecting your privacy. By using WorldUnscrambler.com, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
2. Information We Collect
WorldUnscrambler.com is designed to be a privacy-first tool. Here is what we do and do not collect:
- Letters you type: All word unscrambling calculations happen entirely in your browser using JavaScript. The letters you enter are never transmitted to our servers or any third-party server. We have no access to what you search.
- Usage data: We use Google Analytics to collect anonymized, aggregated data such as page views, session duration, browser type, device type, and approximate geographic region (country/city level). This helps us understand how the site is used and improve it. No personally identifiable information is collected.
- Cookies: We store a single preference cookie (
wu_theme) in your browser to remember your light/dark mode preference. This cookie contains no personal information. - Advertising cookies: Google AdSense, which serves advertisements on this site, may place cookies on your browser to show relevant ads. See Section 5 for details.
3. How We Use Information
The anonymized analytics data collected via Google Analytics is used solely to:
- Understand which languages and features are most popular
- Monitor site performance and identify technical issues
- Improve the user experience and add new languages or features
We do not sell, trade, or share any data with third parties for marketing purposes. We do not build user profiles or track individuals across sessions.
4. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to collect anonymized usage data. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about how visitors use our site. The data collected is aggregated and does not personally identify you. Google's privacy policy governs how Google handles this data. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
5. Google AdSense & Advertising
WorldUnscrambler.com displays advertisements served by Google AdSense (publisher ID: ca-pub-5798786176755576). Google AdSense may use cookies and web beacons to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings or aboutads.info. You can also opt out via the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page. Note that opting out of personalized ads does not mean you will see no ads โ you will still see non-personalized (contextual) ads.
6. Google Fonts
We use Google Fonts (Space Grotesk, Bangers, Space Mono) to render text. When you visit the site, your browser may make a request to Google's servers to download these fonts. This request may transmit your IP address to Google. Google Fonts does not set cookies and does not store personal information.
