Privacy at Wungo

This notice explains how Wungo handles game progress, service requests, contact messages, and advertising.

What stays in your browser

Wungo uses browser local storage to remember your guesses, hints, puzzle progress, completed puzzles, streaks where available, and light/dark and sound choices. Your browser keeps this information until you clear this site’s data. There is no player account or cross-device sync.

Guesses and results

Each ordinary guess is sent to Wungo's game server to receive a rank. Wungo does not store your full guess trail in a game database. If you choose to include a word in a problem report, that word and its rank are saved with the report.

Where community averages are available, Wungo records a completed game's guess count, its hint count where recorded, puzzle revision, and an anonymous browser identifier. An anonymous cookie helps prevent repeat solve reports. Giving up is excluded from the averages; hints do not add guesses. Older games without a recorded hint count are excluded from the hint average. These records contain no name, email address, or IP address.

Contact and reports

Choosing Give up sends an anonymous event for that puzzle so Wungo can identify games that people struggle with, including games with no guesses. It does not add a solve to the community average.

The in-game report form records the puzzle revision, selected reason, optional word and note, and an anonymous browser identifier. Reports stay private and are used to improve the game. New in-game reports are removed after 90 days. Your browser can remember the report reference; this does not extend server retention. Please avoid including personal or sensitive information in a note.

If you email hello@wungo.app about a puzzle or bug, Wungo receives your email address and message to investigate and respond. Please do not include passwords or other sensitive information.

Hosting and diagnostics

Cloudflare delivers Wungo's pages and game requests and may process technical data such as IP addresses and request details to operate and protect the service. Server errors may be logged for diagnosis.
