Privacy Policy
Last updated: 25 October 2026
This policy explains how Word Seekr handles information in the iOS app and on cody1.co.uk/apps/word-seekr. The full version is also published at cody1.co.uk/apps/word-seekr/privacy.
On your device
Word Seekr stores gameplay progress, stats, streaks, in-app badges, settings, and your chosen display name locally. This data powers the game and is not uploaded to a Cody1 account database.
iCloud profile and global leaderboards
If you set a display name or avatar (including an optional custom photo), Word Seekr may sync that profile through iCloud / CloudKit. Eligible Daily Challenge and Speed Run times (finished without hints) may be submitted to Cody1 global leaderboards with your display name, avatar, puzzle date, and an anonymous player identifier. Sign in to iCloud on your device for these features.
Game Center
When you use Game Center, Apple processes leaderboard and profile data under Apple’s privacy terms. Word Seekr submits eligible Daily Challenge and Speed Run times without hints. Classic mode allows hints and does not submit ranked times.
Advertising and purchases
The app may show banner ads and optional rewarded videos (for extra Classic hints) through Google Mobile Ads, subject to in-app consent and your device settings. You can buy Remove Ads via the App Store; Apple processes the purchase.
Shared links
Challenge URLs only encode puzzle identifiers in the path (date, category, difficulty, seed) — not personal account data. Challenge pages at cody1.co.uk/wordseekr do not use analytics cookies.
Website
Marketing and support pages are static. Cloudflare may receive standard request data (such as IP address) to serve the site.
