Wordalo Privacy Policy

Last updated 9 August 2026

Wordalo does not collect your data. There is no analytics, no tracking, no advertising and no user accounts. The app makes no network requests of its own.

What we collect

Nothing. Wordalo has no analytics SDK, no advertising SDK, no crash reporting service and no telemetry of any kind. We do not know who you are, that you installed the app, or what you played.

Where your data lives

  • On your device. Your puzzle progress, streaks, statistics, achievements and saved games are stored locally on your iPhone or iPad.
  • Your own iCloud, if you turn it on. If you enable iCloud sync, that data is written to your personal private iCloud database so it can follow you between your own devices. It is stored under your Apple Account and governed by Apple's privacy policy. We have no access to it and cannot read it.

Puzzles are generated on your device

Every crossword, word search, anagram, codeword, fill-in and word connect puzzle is generated locally. The word and clue databases ship inside the app. This is why Wordalo works with no signal at all, and why nothing you do needs to leave your device.

Purchases

Wordalo is free to download. There is one optional non-consumable in-app purchase, "Unlock Every Puzzle & Category". Payment is handled entirely by Apple through the App Store; we never see your payment details. Family Sharing is enabled, so the purchase can be shared with your Apple Family group. Restoring a purchase asks Apple, not us, what you already own.

Notifications

Optional local reminders about the daily challenge are scheduled by the app on your device. They are never sent from a server and involve no push token.

Children

Wordalo is rated 4+ and is suitable for all ages. Because the app collects nothing, it collects nothing from children either.

Your rights

Since we hold no personal data about you, there is nothing for us to export, correct or delete. To remove everything Wordalo has stored, delete the app; to remove synced data, delete it from iCloud in your device settings. If you are in the UK or EU and want to raise a concern, you can contact the Information Commissioner's Office.

Changes

If this policy ever changes, the revised version will be posted at this address with a new date at the top.
