Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 8, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how 5 Letter Words Hub we, available at https://5letterwordshub.com, handles information when you visit or use our website and tools. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
1. Information we collect
Information you give us
You do not need an account to use our tools. We only receive personal information that you choose to send us, for example your name and email address when you contact us by email or through a contact form, plus whatever you include in your message.
Letters and searches you enter
Our finders, solvers and unscramblers ask you to type letters, patterns or tile colors. This input is used to show you matching words. We do not ask you to enter personal information into these tools, and we ask that you do not.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our servers and the services we use may automatically record technical information such as:
- IP address (which may indicate your approximate location)
- Browser type and version, device type and operating system
- Pages visited, links clicked, time and date of visit and referring page
- Approximate time spent on pages and general usage patterns
2. How we use information
- To provide, operate and maintain the website and tools
- To understand how the site is used and improve content, speed and design
- To respond to your messages and support requests
- To detect, prevent and fix spam, abuse, security issues and technical problems
- To show advertising that helps keep the site free (see section 5)
- To comply with legal obligations
3. Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We and our service providers use cookies and similar technologies to keep the site working, remember basic preferences, measure traffic and, where used, serve and measure ads.
- Essential cookies help the site function and stay secure.
- Analytics cookies help us understand which pages and tools are most useful.
- Advertising cookies may be set by advertising partners to show and measure ads.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some features may not work properly if you disable cookies entirely. Where required by law, we ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies.
4. Analytics
We may use analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to collect aggregated information about how visitors use the site. These services may use cookies and collect data like your IP address and device details. We use the results only to improve the site.
5. Advertising and third-party vendors
We may display ads from third-party advertising networks, including Google AdSense. These third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the internet.
You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also learn more about opting out of many third-party advertising cookies at aboutads.info. In the European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland, we use a consent mechanism where required so that you can choose whether personalized ads are used.
We do not control how third-party advertisers collect or use information. Please review their own privacy policies.
6. Sharing of information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information only with:
- Service providers who help us run the site, such as web hosting, analytics, security and email services, and who are only allowed to use data to perform services for us
- Advertising partners, as described in section 5
- Authorities or other parties when required by law, to enforce our terms or to protect our rights, users or the public
- A successor if the site is transferred, merged or sold, in which case this policy will continue to apply to existing data unless you are notified of a change
7. Data retention
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes in this policy, for example to answer your message, meet legal obligations or resolve disputes. Server logs and analytics data are kept for a limited period and then deleted or anonymized.
8. Data security
We take reasonable steps to protect information, including using HTTPS and keeping our software updated. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate information
- Request deletion of your information
- Object to or restrict certain processing
- Withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent
- Receive a copy of your data in a portable format
- Opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information for advertising (California residents). We do not sell personal information for money, but ad-related cookies may count as “sharing” under some laws.
- Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority
To exercise any of these rights, email us at [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.
10. Children’s privacy
Our site is a general-audience word-game helper and is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in some regions). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
11. Links to other websites
Our site may link to external websites that we do not own or operate. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices, and we encourage you to read their policies.
12. International visitors
Our service providers may process data in countries other than your own. Where this happens, we rely on appropriate safeguards required by applicable law.
13. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Please check back periodically. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
