Privacy Policy
Simple truth: We collect zero data about you. Your privacy is guaranteed by design, not by policy.
Last updated: August 29, 2025
The Simple Truth
LingoBingo collects ZERO data about you.
No accounts, no tracking, no analytics, no personal information. Your progress stays on your device, and only Google's advertising systems (which fund our free app) collect data - with your explicit consent.
How LingoBingo Actually Works
No Accounts
No sign-ups, passwords, or personal details. Just open the app and start learning immediately.
Local Storage
Your progress, scores, and preferences are saved locally in your browser/device. Never sent anywhere.
Ad-Supported
Google's ad systems keep the app free. They handle consent and data collection, not us.
Data & Privacy: What Actually Happens
🔒 Your Learning Data
All your game progress, scores, streaks, and preferences are stored locally in your browser or device. We never see this data, never collect it, and never have access to it.
✅ Your progress stays private and belongs only to you
🍪 Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies (Required)
Basic app functionality and remembering your consent choices
Local Storage (Required)
Your game progress and settings - stays on your device only
🎯 Advertising (How We Stay Free)
Google's advertising systems (AdMob for mobile, AdSense for web) handle all ad-related data collection. We don't collect any advertising data ourselves.
Web: AdSense automatically handles GDPR/CCPA consent
Mobile: We ask for your consent before sharing advertising IDs with AdMob
Google Advertising: How It Works
🌐 Web Version
Google AdSense handles everything automatically:
- Detects your location for GDPR/CCPA compliance
- Shows consent dialogs when required
- Manages your ad preferences
- No app permissions needed
Control ads: Google Ads Settings
📱 Mobile Apps
Google AdMob with your explicit consent:
- iOS: Apple's permission dialog first
- Android: EU users get consent dialog
- Can always opt out in device settings
- App works fully without consent
iOS: Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking
Android: Settings > Google > Ads
✅ Key Facts
What Google collects (not us):
- Ad interaction data
- Device/browser compatibility info
- Location (for legal compliance)
- Advertising IDs (mobile, with consent)
Your guaranteed rights:
