Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how FameStudioCo ("we", "us") handles information when you use Spelling Bee Battle (the "Service") at spellingbeebattle.com. We've tried to keep it plain-spoken. By using the Service you agree to the practices described here.
Information we collect
Account information. Creating an account is optional. If you register, we store a username, a display name, and a securely hashed password. You can play as a guest without an account.
Gameplay data. We store progress and stats tied to your account or device — things like experience, in-game currency, match history, and ranked rating — so your profile persists between sessions.
Local storage. The game keeps some data in your browser's local storage (such as a guest identifier, your display name, and settings) to make the experience work smoothly. This stays on your device.
Analytics. We may collect anonymous, aggregated usage data (such as which features are used and basic device/browser information) to understand how the game is played and to improve it. This data is not used to personally identify you.
Advertising and Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense to display ads, which helps keep the game free. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies 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 to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You can learn more about how Google uses data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites, and review options for opting out of third-party cookies at aboutads.info.
Cookies
We use a small number of cookies: a secure session cookie when you sign in, and the advertising/analytics cookies described above. You can control cookies through your browser settings, though disabling them may affect parts of the game (for example, staying signed in).
How we use information
We use the information we collect to operate and improve the Service, save your progress, run matchmaking and the ranked ladder, prevent abuse, and display advertising. We do not sell your personal information.
Data retention
We keep account and gameplay data for as long as your account exists. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us.
Children's privacy
The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will remove it.
Your choices
You can play as a guest, opt out of personalized ads via the links above, clear local storage through your browser, and request account deletion.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by the "last updated" date above.
