Cookies and local storage
This site sets no cookies of its own. It does use your browser's local storage, and third-party scripts may set cookies of their own.
Cookies we set
None. Word Puzzle Kit sets no cookies of its own — there is no account, no session and no server-side state, so there is nothing for a cookie to identify.
Local storage we use
Local storage is not a cookie. It is never sent with a request, so it cannot be read by us or by any other site — it exists purely to let a page remember something between visits on your own device.
| Key | What it holds | Why |
|---|---|---|
wpk:theme | The string light or dark | Keeps your theme choice, and prevents a flash of the wrong colours on load |
wpk:daily:* | Today's board and your statistics | Lets you leave the daily game and come back to it |
wpk:quest:* | Streak and win statistics | Tracks your record in the unlimited game |
wpk:mini:* | Letters filled into today's crossword | Restores an unfinished grid |
wpk:drop:best | A single number | Your high score in Letter Drop |
All of it is optional. If storage is blocked or unavailable — private browsing, or a browser set to refuse site data — every feature still works; the site simply forgets your theme and your streak between visits.
Third-party cookies
The following third-party scripts run on this site and may set cookies:
- Google Analytics — measures which pages are visited. Cookies are used to distinguish one visit from another. It never sees what you type into a tool.
These are set by Google, not by us, and are governed by Google's cookie policy .
How to remove it all
- Clear site data in your browser's settings for this domain. That removes both the local storage listed above and any third-party cookies.
- Block third-party cookies in your browser settings, or use tracking protection or an ad blocker. The tools and games are unaffected.
- Use private browsing. Everything works; nothing persists after you close the window.
Clearing site data will reset your theme, your game streaks and any unfinished crossword. Nothing else is lost, because nothing else is kept.
