1. Overview & Commitment to Privacy
Unscrambler-Words ("we", "our", or "us") respects your privacy and is dedicated to protecting personal information. This Privacy Policy details how we handle data, search inputs, cookies, and analytics across our website and word-solving utilities.
2. Information We Collect
Search Queries and Tool Inputs: When you enter letters, words, or parameters into tools such as the Word Unscrambler, Anagram Solver, Wordle Solver, or Sleep Calculator, these inputs are processed strictly to return matching dictionary results or sleep schedules. We do not correlate search queries with personal user identities or build personal profiling databases.
Contact Form Communications: If you voluntarily reach out using our contact form, we collect your submitted name, email address, message content, and your IP address (utilized solely for anti-spam prevention and rate-limiting). We do not share or sell your email address to third-party marketers.
Automatically Collected Technical Data: Like most web platforms, our web server logs standard technical data including browser type, operating system, referring URL, time of request, and IP address to maintain security, optimize load speeds, and monitor uptime.
3. Cookies, Advertising & Google AdSense
Unscrambler-Words may partner with third-party advertising vendors, including Google LLC (Google AdSense), to display non-intrusive advertisements that help fund our free word tools and hosting infrastructure.
Google uses cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) to serve advertisements based on past visits to this website or other sites across the internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings or via AboutAds.info.
4. Analytics & Performance Tracking
We utilize aggregated, privacy-focused analytics (such as Google Analytics 4) to monitor general site traffic trends, device screen sizes, and error rates so we can improve tool functionality. Analytics cookies collect anonymized statistical data without identifying individual visitors.
5. Data Security & Storage
We apply industry-standard security safeguards, including HTTPS SSL/TLS encryption, parameterized SQL queries, strict Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) sanitization, and request rate limiting to protect user information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.
6. Third-Party Links
Our educational articles and resources may contain links to external reference websites (such as Scrabble tournament rulebooks or dictionary authorities). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party websites.
7. Updates & Inquiries
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect legal requirements or operational changes. If you have questions about our data practices, please reach out through our Contact page.
