Privacy
Today, using the dictionary needs no account and we collect no personal information about you. This may change as the project grows, and we'll update this page if it does.
What we collect today
Nothing that identifies you. There are no accounts to sign in to, and we do not currently run advertising or analytics that build a profile of you. Search runs entirely in your browser. The word list is downloaded once and filtered on your device, so your searches are not sent to us.
Requesting a word
If a word is missing you can ask us to add it. We store only the word you typed. You may optionally leave an email so we can tell you once when the word is added; giving it is entirely voluntary and the request works without it.
- Purpose: only to add the word, and (if you gave an email) to notify you once when it is ready.
- Retention: a request is automatically deleted after 90 days, and your email is removed as soon as the word is added.
- Where it is held: in our own database in India (AWS Mumbai). It is never sold or shared.
- Your choice: to have a request or email deleted sooner, contact us via the contribute page.
Stored on your device
To make search fast, your browser keeps a copy of the word index in its local storage. It stays on your device, is never sent to us, and clearing your browser data removes it.
What may change
This is a growing project and it costs money and time to run. In future we may introduce things such as analytics, or advertising, to help sustain it, and those may involve collecting some data. We reserve the right to do so. If and when we do, we will describe it here, and your continued use of the site will be subject to the version of this notice then in force.
What your browser loads
- The pages and fonts come from our own domain.
- Pronunciation audio, where a word has it, loads on demand from Wikimedia Commons only when you press “Listen”; their servers see that request.
Server logs
Our content delivery network keeps standard, short-lived technical logs (such as the requested URL and a coarse location) to serve the site and protect it from abuse.
Supporting the project
We may offer a voluntary way to support this work (for example a “buy me a coffee” link). If you choose to contribute, the payment is handled by that third-party provider under their own terms, and we don't see your card details.
Your settings
Your theme and text-size choices are stored only in your own browser and never reach us.
