Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2025
This Privacy Policy explains how WordSeoul (“we”, “us”, “our”) handles information when you use the WordSeoul game and website.
Information We Store
Within the game, we may store:
- Your chosen username and avatar
- Basic gameplay stats (for example: games played, scores, and language preferences)
- Game settings (such as difficulty or selected language)
This information is stored primarily in your browser (for example using local storage and cookies) so that we can remember your profile and improve your experience.
Cookies and Local Storage
WordSeoul uses cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) to:
- Remember your profile and game settings
- Keep you signed in to your profile on your device
- Understand how people use the site so we can improve it
For more detail, please see our Cookie Policy.
Analytics
We may use privacy-friendly analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how players use WordSeoul — for example, which pages are visited most and which features are used. These tools help us improve the game experience.
Analytics data is generally collected in an aggregated, anonymised form. You can usually control cookies and analytics in your browser settings.
Multiplayer & Online Features
When you play online with other players, your chosen username and avatar may be visible to your opponent during the match. We recommend not using sensitive personal information as your display name.
Children
WordSeoul is designed for language learners and general audiences. If you are under the age required to give consent to online services in your country, please use the game with a parent or guardian’s permission.
Third-Party Services
If we integrate third-party services (for example, analytics or hosting providers), those services may process limited technical data such as your IP address or browser type as part of delivering the game. We aim to work with reputable providers who respect user privacy.
Your Choices
You can:
- Clear your browser’s local storage and cookies to remove stored profile data
- Adjust cookie and tracking settings in your browser
- Choose a non-identifying username and avatar
Contact
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or how WordSeoul handles data, you can contact the developer of the game through the same channel where you discovered WordSeoul.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Continued use of WordSeoul after changes means you accept the updated policy.
