In short: we collect nothing. Your progress stays on your device. The only thing that can leave it is a score, and only if you are signed in to Game Center or Play Games.
The Daily Word Puzzle (App Store: com.BlazingPepper.TheDailyWordPuzzle · Google Play: com.blazingpepper.thedailywordpuzzle) is published on the App Store (iPhone, iPad, Mac) and Google Play (Android) by Blazing Pepper Productions LLC, 3400 Cottage Way Ste G236814, Sacramento, CA 95825-1474, United States.
On both stores the developer is listed as Jonathan Dale. Questions about this
policy can go to support@blazing-pepper.com or jonathan.dale@blazing-pepper.com. This page covers The Daily Word Puzzle on its own; our
privacy overview covers everything we publish.
What we collect
Nothing. The Daily Word Puzzle does not ask for your name, email address, location, contacts, or any other personal information. We run no servers and no accounts, and the app contains no analytics, advertising, crash reporting or tracking of any kind.
What stays on your device
Your puzzle progress, results, times and preferences. It stays on your device, is never sent to us, and is removed when you uninstall the app.
What leaves your device
- If you are signed in to Game Center or Google Play Games: your scores and times, and your progress towards achievements. Nothing else.
Game Center and Google Play Games
If you are signed in to Game Center (iPhone, iPad, Mac) or Google Play Games (Android), the game submits your scores and times to its leaderboards, and your progress to its achievements, so they can be shown to you and ranked. That goes to Apple or Google, under Apple’s Privacy Policy or Google’s Privacy Policy, and is tied to your player profile with them — never to an account of ours. We receive nothing from it: not your name, your email address, nor your player ID. Signing in is optional; the game plays exactly the same without it, with your scores kept on your device. On Android, Google may collect device and usage information of its own to provide Play Games; that is Google’s processing, not ours.
Permissions
None.
Buying it, and what the stores say
It is a paid app, bought once from the store; it carries no ads and no in-app purchases. The purchase is handled entirely by Apple or Google, and we receive no payment details or personal information from it.
On the App Store its privacy label reads “Data Not Collected”. On Google Play its Data safety section says it collects and shares no data. Both say the same as this page; if you think a store listing and this page disagree, tell us and we will fix whichever is wrong.
Children
The Daily Word Puzzle is rated 4+ on the App Store and Everyone on Google Play. It collects no personal information from anyone, including children under 13.
Deleting your data
We hold no data about you, so there is nothing for us to delete on request. To remove what The Daily Word Puzzle stored:
- Uninstall the game to remove everything it saved on your device.
- Scores and achievements held by Game Center or Play Games belong to that service: manage them with Apple, or in the Google Play Games app under your profile settings.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the revised version will be posted at this address with a new effective date.
