Privacy Policy
worder (“the app”) is a word game developed by Alan Wasem (“we,” “us”). We built worder to be fun and simple, and we keep your data the same way. This policy explains what the app collects and why. The short version: worder collects as little as possible, and we do not sell your data or use third-party advertising or analytics.
Information the app handles
- Sign in with Apple (optional). If you choose to sign in, Apple shares a name and an email address with the app so we can identify your account and sync your progress. You may choose Apple’s “Hide My Email” feature, in which case we only ever see a private relay address. We use this information solely to operate your account — nothing else.
- Game Center (optional). If you enable Game Center, Apple manages leaderboards and achievements. Your Game Center nickname and scores are handled by Apple under Apple’s Privacy Policy. We receive only what Apple exposes for leaderboards.
- Gameplay data. Your scores, streaks, and settings are stored locally on your device. If you are signed in, this progress may also be synced through Apple’s iCloud/Game Center services so it follows you between devices.
What we do not do
- We do not use third-party advertising networks.
- We do not use third-party analytics or tracking SDKs.
- We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
- We do not track you across other apps or websites.
How information is used
Any information the app handles is used only to run the game: to save your progress, show leaderboards you opt into, and keep your account working. We do not use it for marketing or profiling.
Data retention & deletion
Gameplay data lives on your device and is removed when you delete the app. To remove Game Center data, manage it in your device’s Game Center settings. To request deletion of any account data associated with your Sign in with Apple identifier, email us at alan@alanwasem.com and we will delete it.
Children
worder is suitable for all ages and does not knowingly collect personal information from children beyond the optional sign-in described above. It contains no ads and no in-app purchases.
Apple services
Because worder runs on Apple platforms and uses Sign in with Apple and Game Center, your use of those features is also governed by Apple’s Privacy Policy.
Changes to this policy
If we change how the app handles data, we will update this page and revise the date above. Continued use of the app after a change means you accept the updated policy.
