Your website cookie choices
Optional Google Analytics is off until you accept. Declining does not prevent you from browsing the site or reading these policies.
This choice applies to this browser on wordscrapes.com. It does not change permissions inside the Word Scrapes app or choices on thingspeople.love.
Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small files a website asks your browser to store. Local storage is another way to remember information in that browser. Mobile apps can use local saves, software development kits (SDKs), and device identifiers for similar purposes.
This policy covers wordscrapes.com and explains how the website's choices differ from those in the Word Scrapes app. Things People Love, LLC operates both.
What this website uses
- Cookie preference: wordscrapes_cookie_consent
- Local storage remembers whether you accepted or declined optional website analytics. It contains your choice, not your game account information. It remains until you change it or clear site data; the site does not set an automatic expiry.
- Reduced-motion preference: wordscrapes_reduced_motion
- Local storage remembers your choice to reduce animations. It remains until changed or cleared and is independent of analytics consent.
- Google Analytics: _ga and _ga_<identifier>
- After acceptance, Google Analytics may set cookies to distinguish visits and measure session activity. Google's default lifetime for these cookies is two years, although browser limits and configured settings may shorten it and visits may renew expiry. See Google's cookie documentation.
The website's gameplay video and artwork are served as site files, not an embedded YouTube player. Playing the video does not itself enable optional Google Analytics.
Why we use analytics
With your permission, Google Analytics helps us understand website visits, pages viewed, interactions, browser and device characteristics, and traffic sources. Google receives information sent by your browser when the tag loads and events are sent. Read Google's Privacy Policy.
Our site does not load this optional tag before acceptance. Website analytics consent is not consent to receive marketing emails.
Changing or withdrawing your choice
Use the control above at any time, or follow Cookie Policy in the footer to return here. Turning analytics off disables further analytics collection by this site's tag and removes accessible first-party Google Analytics cookies. If the tag was already loaded, the page refreshes after saving your withdrawal so it is no longer loaded.
Withdrawal does not erase information already sent to Google. For requests about previously collected personal information, email privacy@thingspeople.love.
You can also block cookies, clear site data, or use Google's Analytics opt-out browser add-on. Clearing site data removes the saved choice and motion preference; the website will ask again and keep analytics off until acceptance. Private browsing and browser restrictions can limit how long settings persist.
Inside the Word Scrapes app
The game uses separate technologies to store guest progress and settings, support sign-in and cloud saves, verify purchases and entitlements, and provide diagnostics or advertising where enabled. These may use app storage, SDKs, or device identifiers rather than browser cookies.
Use available in-game privacy and consent settings and your device's app permissions to manage those choices. Necessary operations such as completing purchases or maintaining account security are distinct from optional advertising and analytics. See our Privacy Policy and Account Deletion page for account-data information.
Updates and contact
We may update this policy as the website or game changes and will revise the date above. Questions about these technologies or your choices can be sent to privacy@thingspeople.love.
