Privacy Policy

Our Approach to Privacy

At Word Scrumble, we believe that your data belongs to you. That's why we've designed our site to be as private as possible. All word unscrambling and dictionary searches happen directly in your browser using JavaScript. We do not store or transmit the letters you enter or the results you find.

Information We Collect

We do not collect any personally identifiable information (PII) from our users. We do use industry-standard tools like Google Analytics and Google AdSense, which may collect non-personal data such as your IP address, browser type, device type, and the pages you visit to help us understand site performance and deliver relevant advertisements.
