Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2026

What we collect

Holy Word Search does not require signup. We do not collect names, emails, or accounts. The only personal-ish data we store is a nickname you optionally enter on the leaderboard — kept in your own browser's localStorage, not on our servers. Clear it any time from the Leaderboard page.

Cookies

We use a small number of cookies for basic analytics (understanding how many people visit each page) and, once approved, personalized advertising via Google AdSense. EU visitors are shown a consent banner before non-essential cookies are set.

Third-party services

  • Google Analytics — anonymized traffic reporting
  • Google AdSense (once approved) — contextual and personalized ads
  • WordSearch.Life — hosts the embedded puzzles themselves

These providers may set their own cookies and process data under their own privacy policies.

Children's privacy

Holy Word Search is appropriate for all ages. In keeping with COPPA, we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The site requires no account and stores nothing personally identifiable outside your own device.

Your rights (GDPR & CCPA)

You have the right to access, correct, or delete any data we hold about you. Since our own storage is limited to a browser-local leaderboard nickname, you can delete it yourself at any time using the "Clear my scores" button on the Leaderboard page. For anything else, email us at wordsearchlife@gmail.com.
