Welcome to 1wordtoday (“we”, “our”, or “us”). We publish a daily word with its meaning and associated artwork to help readers discover and learn new vocabulary.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you visit our website at https://1wordtoday.fossiloflife.com or interact with our services.

2. Information We Collect

Website visitors

Communications

If you contact us, we may process the information you provide, such as your email address and the contents of your message, to respond to your enquiry.

Social media integrations

We may publish our original daily word content and artwork on third-party social media platforms, including Pinterest and other platforms where we maintain an account.

Where we use an authorized platform API, the integration may process account identifiers, authorization tokens, publishing information, and content necessary to perform the requested publishing operation.

We use these integrations to manage our own publishing activities. We do not request your social media credentials merely because you visit our website.

Our website and publishing activities may involve third-party service providers, such as hosting, security, analytics, and social media platforms.

These providers process information according to their own policies and applicable terms.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies where necessary for functionality, security, or other disclosed purposes.

The cookies used depend on the website’s actual configuration and the services integrated with it.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Where legally required, we will provide appropriate choices or consent mechanisms.

6. Data Retention and Security

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, subject to applicable legal requirements.
