Reading the site
Our pages set no cookies and send nothing to analytics until you agree. Our hosting provider, Vercel, processes the technical data every web request carries, such as your IP address, to deliver the pages.
Analytics, only with your consent
If you choose “Accept” on the consent bar, the site loads Google Analytics 4 to count visits so we can see which pages help people find what they need. If you choose “Reject”, or choose nothing, no analytics request is made. Your choice is kept in your browser's local storage under the name wsp-consent, so the bar does not ask again; this is needed to respect your choice. You can change it at any time with the “Cookie settings” link in the footer. Cookies set after consent: _ga and _ga_1YFKJHFM21. Measurement ID: G-1YFKJHFM21. Legal basis: your consent, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TDDDG.
Buying a product
When you press a buy button, your browser saves one recovery value in local storage and sends it to our checkout endpoint to open your order. When you return, the same value is sent to our order lookup endpoint to reopen that order. It stays on your device, and this site's script can read it. It is strictly necessary for the purchase you asked for, so it needs no consent.
Payment happens on Stripe Checkout. Stripe collects your email address and payment details. We never see your card details.
Our order records hold the product, price, currency, Stripe's checkout and payment references, and the time of purchase. They do not hold your name, postal address or card details.
After payment we read your email address from Stripe once to send your receipt with the download link. The email is sent through Resend. Your email address is not stored in our order records.
Order records and the delivered files are kept with Supabase.
Word search maker: the words and settings you type stay in your browser; they are never sent to us. Before a paid download, the maker saves your puzzle in your browser's local storage (wsm:draft) so it is still there when you return from Stripe. After payment, the maker sends the Stripe checkout reference once to our server, which asks Stripe whether that checkout is paid; the result (a one-time download or a pass valid until a date) is kept in your browser's local storage (wsm:credit, wsm:pass, wsm:used). This is strictly necessary for the purchase you asked for, so it needs no consent.
We keep order records as long as German law requires, generally up to 10 years.
Legal basis: performance of the contract, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, and our legal duty to keep accounting records, Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.
