Cookie & Storage Policy

1. The short version

WordBonk uses no advertising and no analytics cookies. We do not track you across other websites, we set no third-party tracking cookies, and we do not fingerprint your device. We use a small amount of browser storage that is either strictly necessary or purely functional, plus one optional video embed.

2. Strictly necessary

• token (local storage) — keeps you signed in. Clearing it signs you out.

These do not require consent because the Service cannot function without them.

3. Functional

• ui_language — remembers your interface language.
• Onboarding, notification and banner-dismissal flags — remember what you have already seen.
• wb-error-session (session storage) — groups error reports so we can fix bugs.

4. Optional third-party embed — YouTube

Vocabulary video clips are served from YouTube using the privacy-enhanced youtube-nocookie.com domain, with click-to-load: no request reaches YouTube or Google until you choose to play a clip. When you play a clip, YouTube may set its own storage and receive your IP address under Google's own privacy policy. Book-cover images may also load from third-party sources, which likewise see your IP address when displayed.

5. Managing storage

You can clear site storage at any time in your browser settings (note: clearing token signs you out). You can review and change your choices via the cookie notice shown on your first visit.
