Privacy for young learners

Your information: a short guide for children and teenagers

World Word Search needs a small amount of information to remember your learning. This page explains it in plain language.

01

What we know

When you sign in, we may receive your name, email address and picture from Google. We also save the username or picture you choose, the school or church you join, puzzles you play, answers, scores and rank.

02

What other players may see

A leaderboard can show your chosen username, picture, score, rank and broad region. A school leaderboard may show your school. Choose a nickname that does not reveal your full name, school year, address or other private details.

03

What we do not ask for

Do not enter your password, home address, phone number, date of birth, medical information, private photographs or anything that makes you feel unsafe. The game has no private player-to-player messages.

04

Your choices

You can ask a parent, carer, teacher or church leader to help you change incorrect details or ask for your account to be deleted. You can also email tkintell@gmail.com. Never send your password.

05

If something worries you

Stop using the page and tell a trusted adult. If the problem concerns your school or church, use its safeguarding process too. The adult privacy notice gives more detail about how information is handled.
