Privacy

The short version: Vocabulum collects nothing about you.

The app

Vocabulum has no accounts and no sign-in. It contains no analytics, no advertising and no advertising identifiers, and it does not track you. Its App Store privacy label is “Data Not Collected”.

Your favorites, saved words, words you know, test results and settings are stored on your device. If iCloud is on, they sync through your own private iCloud account, which is run by Apple and which we cannot see.

Daily-word notifications are scheduled on your device. There is no push server and nothing is sent to us to make them work.

What the app downloads

The app makes only two kinds of network request: it checks a small public file to see whether a newer word library exists, and if one does, it downloads it. These requests contain nothing about you. Like any download, they reach our storage provider with your device’s internet address, which we do not use to identify you.

Purchases

The app and Vocabulum Premium are bought through the App Store. Apple handles the payment. We never see your card, your name or your Apple account. Whether you have Premium is checked on your device.

Children

Vocabulum is made to be suitable for all ages. Every published word and example is checked, and nothing is collected from anyone, including children.

This website

This site uses no cookies, no analytics and no trackers.

Like every website, its hosting provider receives the usual request details, such as your internet address, to deliver pages. To protect the site from abuse, your internet address is also used briefly to limit how many requests can be made in a short time.

If you use the support form, your email address and message are sent to us by email so we can reply. We use them only to answer you, and they are not added to any mailing list.

Changes and questions

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page. Questions are welcome through the support page.
