Word Search Generator ("we", "us", or "our") operates the website wordsearchgen.com. This page explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your choices.
We do not require an account to use the puzzle maker. When you create a puzzle, the words and settings you enter are processed entirely in your browser and are not stored on our servers.
If you choose to create a free account (optional), we collect your email address to authenticate you and save your puzzles. We do not sell your email address or use it for marketing.
We use cookies to keep you logged in and to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. We use Google Analytics to see aggregate data such as which pages are visited most. This data is anonymized and does not identify individual visitors.
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google may use cookies and similar technologies to show ads based on your interests or your prior visits to this site and other websites on the internet. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet. For more information about how Google uses data when you use our partners' sites, visit policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
The AI word suggestion feature is optional and requires you to provide your own OpenAI API key. When you use this feature, your word list prompt is sent directly to OpenAI. We do not store your API key on our servers — it is held only in your browser session.
Our service is designed for use by teachers and educators, not directly by children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.
We store only the minimum data needed to provide the service. Account data is retained as long as your account is active. You can request deletion of your account and data by contacting us. We use industry-standard HTTPS encryption for all data in transit.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you. To exercise these rights, please contact us.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
Questions about this policy? Contact us and we will respond within a few business days.
