Privacy policy

Last updated: September 17, 2026

This policy describes the current JWORD Android game developed by Justin White, including the testing release with package name com.justinwhite.jword. It also explains what happens if you contact the developer or visit these JWORD web pages.

Information stored on your device

JWORD saves the following in its private app storage:

• Your local top-ten entries: initials, scores, and word counts.
• Your sound-on or sound-off preference.

This information is used only to display your local high scores and remember your preference. Initials do not need to be your real initials. The game does not upload scores, provide a worldwide leaderboard, or create an online profile. Normal play does not require a name, email address, or account.

Collection, sharing, and permissions

The current game has no advertising SDK, analytics service, or third-party crash-reporting SDK. It does not sell or share your personal information. The current Android build does not request internet, location, contacts, camera, or microphone permissions. Its speech is prerecorded audio; the game does not listen to or record you.

Keeping and deleting local data

Scores and settings remain on your device until they are removed. The top-ten list replaces lower-ranked entries as new scores qualify. You can delete all of JWORD’s local data in Android’s app settings by choosing Clear storage or Clear data, or by uninstalling the game. This also removes your saved scores and sound preference. Justin White cannot retrieve or delete these local records remotely.

Google Play and your device

Google Play and Android may separately process information for downloads, updates, security, and diagnostic reports under their own settings and policies. Google may make app statistics, crash information, or feedback available to the developer through Play Console. This is separate from JWORD’s local score storage. See Google’s Privacy Policy for details about Google’s services.

If you contact Justin or join a test

If you email a question, send feedback, or provide an email address to join a test, Justin receives the information you choose to provide, such as your address, message, screenshots, or device details. It is used to respond, investigate problems, or manage testing. For invitation-only Google Play testing, the Google-account email address you provide may be entered in Google Play Console so you can access the test.

Email and testing information may be processed by the email provider and Google as needed to provide those services. Justin keeps it only as long as reasonably needed to handle your request, manage the test, and retain necessary support records. You may request deletion by contacting the address below; information may be retained where needed to meet a legal obligation. Please avoid sending sensitive information in screenshots or feedback.

These web pages

The JWORD pages at justinwhite.com/jword/ do not include advertising, analytics scripts, tracking cookies, or embedded third-party media. Images and fonts are served with the pages. The website’s hosting provider may process standard request information, such as an IP address, browser information, requested page, and access time, to deliver and secure the site. Following an external link takes you to a service with its own privacy practices.

Children’s information

The current game does not collect personal information from players of any age. If you believe a child has sent personal information directly to Justin through a support message, contact the address below to request its deletion.

Changes to this policy

This policy describes the current version. If a future release adds advertising, online scores, or other features that change how information is handled, this policy and the relevant Google Play disclosures will be updated before those features are released. Any required notice or consent will be provided. The date above will reflect policy changes.
