4. Local storage & cookies
Local storage
Word Combiner uses browser local storage to remember your Wordle statistics, settings (such as dark mode or hard mode), and theme preferences. You can clear this data anytime through your browser settings.
Cookies
We may use cookies and similar technologies to:
- Keep the site functioning correctly
- Remember preferences across sessions
- Measure traffic and understand how visitors use Word Combiner
You can control cookies through your browser. Disabling cookies may affect some features but free Wordle play should remain available.
5. Sharing & third parties
We may share limited information with trusted service providers who help us operate Word Combiner, such as:
- Hosting and content delivery providers
- Email and contact form services (e.g. WordPress Contact Form 7)
- Payment processors for paid plans
- Analytics providers (if enabled)
These providers may only use your data to perform services on our behalf. We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights, safety, and integrity of Word Combiner and its users.
Word Combiner may load fonts and libraries from third-party CDNs (such as Google Fonts, jsDelivr, or cdnjs). Those providers may receive standard technical data like your IP address when resources load.
6. Children & education
Word Combiner is designed to be family-friendly. Free Wordle play does not require personal information from children. Classroom Pro is intended for use by teachers and institutions who are responsible for obtaining any required parental or school consent before sharing student information with us.

8. Security
We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit (HTTPS) and access controls for internal systems. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Policy changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of Word Combiner after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
