Privacy Policy

Wordfarer · Jolly Good Apps · last updated 6 August 2026

Wordfarer is a storytelling game. We have designed it to collect as little about you as possible. This policy explains what is handled and why.

What we do not collect

We do not ask for your name, email address, phone number or any account. There is no login. We do not build advertising profiles and we do not sell any data.

What is stored

• A device identifier. On Android this is Google's App Set ID — a privacy-preserving identifier that is not an advertising id and cannot identify you personally. It simply lets us avoid showing you the same story ideas twice and lets you resume a tale in progress. If it is unavailable, a random throwaway id is used instead.
• Your tales. The stories you create and play — the world, character and your typed actions — are stored on our server so a tale can continue where you left off.
• Anonymous usage counts for each tale (turns taken, images shown), used to run the service. These are not linked to you personally.

AI processing by third parties

To generate the narrative and the illustrations, the text of your tale (its premise, your character and your actions) is sent to our AI providers for processing:

• Anthropic and DeepSeek — to write the story;
• fal.ai — to generate the pictures.

These providers process the text to return the story and images and are bound by their own terms and privacy policies. Please do not enter personal or sensitive information into the story.

Voice

If you choose to speak your actions or have the story read aloud, the speech-to-text and text-to-speech are handled by your device's own operating system. Any processing of your voice is governed by your device maker's privacy policy, not ours.

Launch list

If you give us your email address on wordfarer.app, we store it — with the time and your IP address, which we keep only to prevent abuse of the form — so that we can send you one email when Wordfarer launches. Nothing else is sent, and the address is not shared with anyone. Email info@jollygoodapps.com at any time to be removed.

Children

Wordfarer is intended for players aged 12 and over. It is not directed at younger children and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Retention & deletion

Tale data is kept so you can resume. Starting a new tale leaves the previous one behind. To have your stored tales removed, contact us at the address below and we will delete them.

Changes

If this policy changes, the updated version will appear at this address with a new date.
