Your activity content
Word lists and activity generation are processed in your browser. PuzzleRove does not send the words or definitions to an application database. Avoid entering personal or sensitive information.
Live multiplayer rooms
Live rooms send your chosen nickname, answers, readiness and timing to the room server. Other room members can see nicknames, progress and final scores. Use a nickname rather than your real name. Player access tokens are stored in this tab’s session storage; do not share them. The room invite does not contain your player token. Rooms expire two hours after creation. The local preview holds rooms in memory; the hosted version uses temporary server storage so a restart can preserve an active room. Expired rooms are removed from active storage. Hosting providers may retain recovery copies according to their retention policies. No chat or account is required. Scores are calculated by the server, but outside help and memorized answers cannot be prevented.
Challenge progress and result links
Completed-round counts, perfect rounds, answer streaks and personal bests are saved in this browser when storage is available. A small recent-puzzle history is also stored in this browser to reduce repetition in fresh rounds. Age-based suggestions are not saved or sent to the room server. Use Reset progress on the game home page to remove saved progress and recent-puzzle history. Challenge links contain the puzzle settings and, when included, the selected answers and elapsed time. Anyone with the link can inspect or change the data. No player names or accounts are required. Results are self-reported; these solo result links do not use the live-room server scoreboard.
Browser drafts
As you edit, the tool tries to save the list, title, activity type and direction setting in local browser storage. That draft is tied to this browser and device. The “Clear saved draft” control removes it and resets the editor. Clearing site data in your browser also removes it.
Shared links
A practice link includes the title, words, definitions and settings in its URL fragment, after #. This is encoding, not encryption. Anyone with the link can read the words and meanings, forward the link and access the answers. The browser normally does not send the fragment to the hosting server, but links may be visible to recipients, browser extensions, synced history and messaging services.
Hosting and network information
The hosting platform may process ordinary request information such as IP address, browser information, requested path and time to serve and secure the website. We do not claim that visiting a website creates no server logs. Platform processing is also governed by the hosting provider’s applicable policies.
Analytics and advertising
This version includes no analytics tags, AdSense code, advertising cookies or third-party font services. If those services are added, this page will be revised before activation and the applicable consent controls will be implemented. Local draft storage is used for the tool’s functionality.
Children and educational use
The site offers recreational puzzles for curious players and vocabulary tools for tutors and learners. Some games use a timer; untimed practice is also available. Scores are not psychological assessments. Do not enter learner names, ages, grades or identifying details. There are no student accounts, public submissions or learner profiles. If your use involves children, choose suitable content and supervise sharing.
Downloads and control
Printed sheets, PDF files and saved word lists remain wherever you choose to save them. Delete them from your device if you no longer need them. A shared link cannot be recalled from another person’s messages or history.
