Cookies And Storage
AcrossWord uses cookies, browser storage, and similar technologies, including Google Analytics, to make the game work and help us understand how the site is used. Some storage is necessary for the operation of the site. Analytics storage is optional and only used if you choose to allow it.
Necessary Storage
AcrossWord uses essential cookies and browser storage for functions such as:
- Sign-in session tokens, so registered players can stay signed in.
- Theme preferences, so light or dark mode remains selected.
- Game progress, completed puzzle state, selected game mode, streak information, and replay lockout state.
- Cookie and privacy preferences, so we remember your choices.
- Security and fraud-prevention measures where required.
These technologies are necessary for the operation of the service and cannot be disabled through our cookie settings.
Analytics Storage
If you allow analytics, AcrossWord stores an anonymous or pseudonymous identifier and event markers to help us understand how the game is being used and to prevent gameplay events from being counted repeatedly after page refreshes.
Analytics information collected through Google Analytics may include:
- Puzzle starts and completions.
- Gameplay events.
- Device type.
- Browser type.
- Operating system.
- Screen size and viewport.
- Time zone.
- Language settings.
- Pages visited.
- Puzzle and gameplay context.
- Approximate location derived from IP address.
Analytics storage and tracking are only used with your consent.
