This Privacy Policy explains how Word Clash (“Word Clash,” “we,” “us”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use the Word Clash mobile app and the wordclash.net website (together, the “Service”). By using the Service you agree to this policy.
| Category | Examples | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Account & identity | A device identifier for guest accounts; or, if you sign in with Apple or Google, your provider user ID, name, and email address | Create and secure your account |
| Profile | Username, display name, chosen avatar, language, and game stats (wins, losses, matches) | Run the game and leaderboards |
| Gameplay | Matches played, answers submitted, scores, power-up use | Operate matches and scoring |
| Social | Friends, friend requests, challenges, and direct messages you send | Provide social features |
| Purchases | Receipts and transaction identifiers from Apple or Google (we never receive your full payment-card details) | Deliver and verify purchases |
| Advertising | Ad-interaction data, and the device advertising identifier on Android (on iOS we request no tracking permission, so the identifier we receive is zeroed) | Show and measure ads |
| Diagnostics | Crash reports and basic device/OS information | Find and fix bugs |
| Notifications | A push notification token | Send game and social alerts (if enabled) |
| Support | The email address and message content you send us | Respond to your request |
We use the information to provide and operate the game (matchmaking, scoring, leaderboards, the in-game economy), enable social features, process and verify purchases, show and measure advertising, send notifications you’ve enabled, diagnose crashes and improve performance, prevent fraud and abuse, and respond to support requests and legal obligations.
We use Google AdMob to show ads, and we request non-personalized ads from Google AdMob on both platforms. On iOS we do not ask for App Tracking Transparency permission, so iOS supplies advertising SDKs with a zeroed advertising identifier. On Android your device advertising ID is sent with ad requests. You can reset or limit ad tracking at any time in your device settings.
We do not sell your personal information for money. We share it only with the service providers and advertising partners below, under contract and limited to what they need:
Our advertising partner receives ad-interaction data; an account identifier we send with rewarded ads, on both platforms, so the reward you earned can be credited back to your account; and, on Android, your device advertising ID, as described in section 3. We request non-personalized ads from Google AdMob, which limits how it is used to select the ads you see. Depending on where you live, sharing an advertising identifier with an ad network may still count as a “sale” or “share” of personal information under local law. You can limit this at any time using your device’s ad-tracking settings.
We may also disclose information to comply with the law, enforce our terms, or protect the rights, safety, and security of our users and the Service.
We keep your information for as long as your account is active and as needed to provide the Service. When you delete your account, we delete or anonymize the associated personal data, except where we must retain limited records (for example, transaction records) to meet legal, accounting, or fraud-prevention obligations.
You can delete your account at any time in the app (Settings → Account → Delete Account), which removes your profile and associated data. Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or export your personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. To make a request, contact us at app@algotery.com.
Word Clash is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
We use technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit and access controls. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We and our service providers may process your information in countries other than where you live. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for such transfers.
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the new version here and update the “Last updated” date above. Material changes may also be communicated in the app.
