For online puzzles we collect your email address, account identifier, purchases, entitlements, credit balance, unlocked puzzles, saved letters, completion status, hints, and timestamps. Checkout also records order and payment references. Payment card or M-Pesa credentials are handled by Paystack and are not stored by Mseto.
We use this information to authenticate you, verify payment, deliver access, restore progress, provide support, prevent fraud, understand product performance, and maintain the reliability of the service. We do not sell personal information.
Supabase provides authentication and database services. Paystack processes payments. Our hosting provider runs the website. When enabled, PostHog provides privacy-conscious product analytics and Sentry provides error monitoring. These providers receive only the information needed to perform their services under their own security and privacy terms.
We may measure page visits, puzzle milestones, checkout steps, and technical failures. We do not send crossword answers, saved letters, full payment details, or email addresses as analytics event properties. The free daily puzzle may use browser storage to preserve progress on that device. You can clear it through your browser settings.
Purchase and payment records are retained for accounting, fraud prevention, and dispute handling. Puzzle progress and account access are retained while your account remains active. We use access controls and passwordless authentication, but no online service can guarantee absolute security.
You may request access, correction, export, or deletion of your personal information, subject to records we must retain for legal or accounting reasons. You may also opt out of non-essential marketing messages. Email privacy@crossword.co.ke or support@crossword.co.ke.
