Last updated: 2026-06-16
Introduction
4 Letter Words is an English four-letter word finder, solver, and unscrambler. The core word finder runs in your browser from a local word list and does not require an account.
Information We Collect
We collect only the information needed to operate and improve the site:
- Finder input — Letters you type into the finder are processed locally in the page. We do not need to store those searches to return results.
- Analytics data — We use Google Analytics to understand aggregate traffic, page performance, device types, and feature usage.
- Account information — If you choose to create an account, we may store your name, email address, session data, and settings.
- Support messages — If you contact us or use support features, we store the information needed to reply.
- Cookies and local storage — We may use cookies or browser storage for sessions, preferences, security, and analytics.
How We Use Your Information
We use information to:
- Provide and improve the word finder.
- Measure performance and understand which search paths are useful.
- Keep accounts and sessions secure when account features are used.
- Respond to your questions, feedback, and support requests.
- Detect abuse, spam, or security issues.
Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share data only in these limited cases:
- With service providers that operate hosting, analytics, email, authentication, or support tools.
- When required to comply with law or valid legal process.
- To protect the rights, safety, and security of 4 Letter Words, users, or the public.
Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect stored data. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, but we work to reduce risk and limit the data we collect.
