WORDFLECK PRIVACY POLICY
Effective Date: May 1, 2026
Last Updated: May 1, 2026
Etienne Scheepers ("we", "us", "our") operates the WordFleck mobile
application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains how the App
handles information when you use it.
By downloading or using WordFleck, you agree to the practices
described in this policy.
1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT
WordFleck is designed to respect your privacy. We do NOT collect,
store, or transmit any personally identifiable information from
users of the App.
Specifically, the App does not collect:
- Your name, email address, phone number, or postal address
- Your location or GPS data
- Your contacts, photos, microphone, or camera
- Any account credentials (the App has no login or sign-in)
- Any analytics, advertising IDs, or device fingerprints
The App does not require an internet connection to play levels.
2. DATA STORED ON YOUR DEVICE
WordFleck stores the following data LOCALLY on your device only,
using the standard iOS / Android preferences storage
(shared_preferences):
- Your level progress and unlocked levels
- Your hint count and earned rewards
- Your settings (sound on/off, theme selection, etc.)
- A record of in-app purchases you have made
This data never leaves your device. It is not uploaded to us, to
any server, or to any third party. If you delete the App, this
data is removed from your device.
3. IN-APP PURCHASES
WordFleck offers optional in-app purchases (Hint Bundle, Mega
Fleck Pack, Theme Pack, Skip Next Level). All purchases are
processed by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play). We do
not receive or store your payment information, credit card
details, or Apple/Google account details.
Please review Apple's and Google's respective privacy policies
to understand how they handle purchase information:
- Apple: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/
- Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy
4. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
WordFleck uses the following third-party software components,
none of which collect personal data from users in the way the
App uses them:
- Flutter and Dart (Google) - app framework
- google_fonts - bundles font assets locally; no network calls
are made for font fetching in production builds
- audioplayers - plays bundled audio files from the app
- in_app_purchase - handles Apple/Google IAP transactions
- url_launcher - opens external URLs only when you tap a link
- shared_preferences - local device storage
- confetti - on-screen visual effects only
The App does not contain any advertising SDKs, tracking SDKs,
or analytics SDKs.
5. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
WordFleck is suitable for all ages and does not knowingly collect
any information from children. Because the App collects no
personal data from any user, it is compliant with the Children's
Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and similar regulations.
In-app purchases are protected by the standard parental controls
available on iOS and Android. We recommend parents configure
purchase restrictions on their child's device.
6. DATA SECURITY
Because no personal data is collected or transmitted, there is no
user data on our servers to secure. Data stored locally on your
device is protected by your device's own security features
(passcode, biometrics, sandboxing).
7. YOUR RIGHTS
You can clear all WordFleck data at any time by:
- Deleting the App from your device, OR
- Using your device's settings to reset App data
Because we do not collect personal data, there is no data to
request, export, or delete on our end. Requests under GDPR, CCPA,
or other privacy regulations can be sent to the contact email
below, but in most cases there will be no data to act on.
8. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last
Updated" date at the top of this policy will reflect any changes.
Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of
the updated policy.
