Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2025
Overview
This privacy policy explains how Wurbz (wurbz.com) handles information when you visit and use this website. We are committed to being transparent about the data collected and how it is used.
Wurbz is a free tool. It does not require you to create an account, provide your name, or submit any personal information to use any feature of the site.
Information We Collect
We do not collect or store any personally identifiable information (PII) directly. However, the third-party services described below may collect certain technical data automatically when you visit the site.
Words you generate are not stored. The word generation API returns a new word on each request and does not log or retain any generated words or user activity.
Theme preference (light or dark mode) is stored locally in your browser's localStorage. This data never leaves your device.
Cookies & Local Storage
Wurbz itself sets one item in localStorage: your theme preference (theme). This is not a cookie and is not transmitted to any server.
Third-party services used by this site (Google Tag Manager and Google AdSense) may set their own cookies to measure traffic and serve relevant advertisements. These cookies are governed by Google's privacy policies, not ours.
You can manage or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Disabling cookies will not affect the core functionality of the word generator.
Google Tag Manager
This site uses Google Tag Manager (GTM) to manage analytics and marketing tags. GTM itself does not collect any personal data; it is a container that manages other tags.
Tags loaded via GTM may collect aggregated, anonymised usage data such as page views, session duration, and referring URLs. This data is used only to understand how visitors use the site and to improve it.
For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.
Google AdSense
This site uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to wurbz.com and other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings.
For more information about how Google uses data when you use our site, see How Google uses data from sites that use Google services.
Cloudflare
Wurbz is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare may process your IP address and request metadata for the purposes of security, DDoS protection, and performance optimisation. This processing is subject to Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.
Children's Privacy
Wurbz is a general-purpose tool and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through this site, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
Links to Other Sites
This site does not contain links to external third-party sites other than those mentioned in this policy. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of any external sites.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date at the top. We recommend checking this page periodically.
