This Privacy Policy explains how WordFTW handles information when you use the app.
1. Information the app stores locally
WordFTW stores gameplay-related information locally on your device, such as game progress, selected runner, settings, lives, and other gameplay preferences. This information is used to provide game functionality and save your progress.

If notifications are enabled, WordFTW may schedule local notifications on your device, for example to let you know when lives are full again. These notifications are generated on-device.
3. Google Play Games Services
WordFTW may use Google Play Games Services for features such as sign-in, achievements, leaderboards, or related game services. If these features are used, Google may process your profile and game-related data according to Google’s own Privacy Policy.
4. Advertising and consent services
WordFTW includes support for Google Mobile Ads and Google User Messaging Platform (UMP). Depending on the build and enabled features, these services may process data such as device identifiers, diagnostics, and information needed to provide ads, measure performance, and manage consent. Google handles this data according to its own Privacy Policy.

- save and restore gameplay progress

7. Data retention and deletion
Locally stored gameplay data remains on your device until you remove it, clear app data, or uninstall the app.
