PRIVACY POLICY FOR CROSSWORD AI
Effective Date: May 18, 2026
1. INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Crossword AI ("we", "our", or "us"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting any personal information you may provide while using our mobile application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information when you access or use Crossword AI.
2. DATA COLLECTION AND OFFLINE ARCHITECTURE
Crossword AI is specifically engineered as a standalone, offline mobile application.
• No Personal Data Collection: We do not require you to create an account, nor do we collect your name, email address, phone number, location, or browsing history.
• On-Device Processing: All gameplay metrics, artificial intelligence calculations, focus quotients, puzzle completion statistics, and hint logs are generated and stored strictly locally on your personal device. No data is transmitted to our servers or third-party cloud services.
3. IN-APP PURCHASES (IAP) AND FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS
Our App offers optional one-time In-App Purchases (e.g., Supporter Packs, VIP Badges, Hint Unlocks).
• Secure Platform Billing: All financial transactions are processed securely and directly through the respective platform app store provider (Google Play Store Billing or Apple App Store In-App Purchases).
• No Payment Information Access: We do not collect, process, or store credit card numbers, banking details, or billing addresses. We only receive an anonymous purchase confirmation token from Apple or Google to verify that the digital in-app item has been successfully unlocked.
4. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND ANALYTICS
Crossword AI does not embed third-party advertising networks, tracking cookies, or covert data harvesting SDKs. The application operates purely offline without requiring internet access for core gameplay functionality.
5. DATA SECURITY AND RETENTION
Because all gameplay data and user preferences are retained locally on your hardware, your data is inherently protected by your device's native operating system encryption and security lockscreen. You can completely wipe all game history and stored attributes at any time simply by uninstalling the App or clearing the application cache in your device settings.
6. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY (COPPA COMPLIANCE)
Our App is safe for users of all ages, including children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly solicit or collect personally identifiable information from children. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that a child has inadvertently provided personal data through platform channels, please contact us so we can take immediate steps to remove such information.
7. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
We reserve the right to modify or update this Privacy Policy at our discretion to reflect app updates or regulatory requirements. We encourage users to periodically review this page for the latest updates.
