Wordtrio Privacy Policy

Introduction

Wordtrio ("the app") is developed by Grisu Studio. This policy describes what the app stores, what it sends, and what it never touches. Wordtrio has no accounts, no login and no servers of ours. Your progress, streak, coins and settings are written to your device's local storage and stay there. The only data that leaves your phone is what Google's advertising SDK sends in order to serve the ads that keep the app free, and you control whether those ads are personalised.

Scope

This privacy policy applies solely to the Wordtrio mobile application.

Data We Collect

Stored on your device only, never transmitted to us, in local app storage (AsyncStorage): your coin balance, streak, lifetime counters (words found, ladders solved, lattices completed and the rest), which puzzle language you play in, today's result for each of the three modes, and your settings (theme, sound, haptics). We also store the answer to a one-time age question as a bracket only — either "under 13" or "13 or over" — never a birth date; if you enter a birth year it is converted to a bracket and immediately discarded. Collected by Google AdMob, not by us, in order to serve ads: your device advertising identifier (IDFA on iOS, Advertising ID on Android), IP address, coarse device information such as model and operating system version, and ad interaction data. The app never asks for your name, email address, phone number, contacts, photos or location.

How We Use Your Data

Your progress is used only inside the app: to track the shared streak, to stop a puzzle counting twice, to compute your lifetime counters and to unlock achievements. It is never uploaded, never shared and never analysed by us — the app contains no analytics and no crash reporting. Advertising data is used by Google to deliver and measure ads. Rewarded ads are only ever shown when you tap to watch one for a coin top-up. In the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom the app shows Google's consent form (UMP) before any ad loads, and on iOS it shows Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt. Declining either one keeps ads non-personalised rather than removing them, and you can revisit both choices at any time from Settings → Privacy. The app also caps the content rating of every ad it requests.

Children's Privacy

Wordtrio is a word game listed for ages 13 and over and is not directed to children. The app asks one neutral, skippable age question and keeps the answer as a bracket rather than a date of birth. If you indicate you are under 13, the app switches to child-directed ad treatment on that device: ads are restricted to the "General audiences" rating, are never personalised, no advertising identifier is used, and Apple's tracking prompt is never shown. The setting can be changed at any time in Settings → Privacy. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children, and the app has no mechanism to do so.

Data Security

Because we run no servers and hold no database of our own, there is no copy of your data anywhere for us to lose or be compelled to hand over. Your records live in your device's local app storage, protected by the operating system's sandboxing and by whatever device encryption you have enabled. "Delete my data" in Settings erases everything the app has saved, and uninstalling the app removes it too. Sharing a result hands an image to your system share sheet — you decide where it goes, and nothing is uploaded in the process. Data handled by Google AdMob is governed by Google's own privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We will update this policy whenever the app's behaviour changes in a way that affects it, and the "Last Updated" date above will change with it. Continuing to use the app after an update means you accept the revised policy.

Contact Us

Questions, corrections or a request to delete data: email support@grisu.co with "Wordtrio privacy" in the subject. Because all of your data is held on your own device, a deletion request is fulfilled by deleting it in the app or uninstalling it — we hold nothing to delete on our side.
