🔒 Your Privacy Rights

Do Not Sell My Personal Information — Your Rights, Clearly Explained

This page explains exactly what data Quiz Rebel holds about you (almost none), how our advertising works, and how to exercise your full opt-out rights in under 30 seconds.

✅

The short version: Quiz Rebel does not sell your personal information.

In fact, we cannot sell what we do not have. Every word you type into our tools is processed entirely in your browser and never transmitted to our servers. We have no names, no email addresses, and no search history to sell.

Effective: June 1, 2026  ·  Canonical: quizrebel.com/do-not-sell/

1. How Quiz Rebel Works — And Why Your Data Stays With You

Quiz Rebel is built on a privacy-first, offline architecture. When you use our Word Unscrambler, Wordle Helper, Anagram Solver, or Scrabble Dictionary, here is exactly what happens:

  • Our full dictionary of 178,000+ words is delivered to your browser when you first visit.
  • Every search, every letter you type, and every result you see is computed locally on your device — not on our servers.
  • Your letters and words never leave your device. There is no API call, no server log, and no record of what you searched for.
What this means practically: Even if a regulator, advertiser, or bad actor demanded your word search history from Quiz Rebel, we would have nothing to hand over. The data does not exist on our end.

2. What Information Quiz Rebel Actually Holds

We want to be precise here, because legal language about “data collection” can be confusing. Here is an honest breakdown:

Information we do NOT collect

  • No names or email addresses. Quiz Rebel requires zero registration. There is no sign-up form, no account, and no login — ever. We have no identity data on you.
  • No search or word history. As described above, all tool processing is local. We have no record of what letters you typed or what words you found.
  • No phone numbers, addresses, or financial information. We have no payment flow and no account system.

Information that may be processed automatically

  • Server access logs: Standard web server logs may record your IP address, browser type, operating system, pages visited, and timestamp. These are used solely for uptime monitoring and security. They are not used for advertising and are not sold.
  • Cookie consent preference: When you accept or decline our cookie banner, your choice is stored in your browser’s localStorage under the key qr_cookie_consent. This data never leaves your device.

3. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising Cookies

Quiz Rebel is a free service. To keep it free, we display advertisements through Google AdSense. This is the one area where data sharing occurs, and we want to be fully transparent about how it works.

What Google AdSense does

When an ad loads on Quiz Rebel, Google may place a third-party cookie on your browser. Google uses this cookie (known as the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve ads based on your prior browsing history across the internet — not based on what you type into our tools.

Important distinction: Google AdSense reads browsing history from across the web to decide which ad to show you. Quiz Rebel itself never provides your word searches or any personal data to Google. Google operates independently under its own privacy policies.

Is this “selling” personal data under CCPA?

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) defines “sale” broadly to include sharing data with a third party for advertising purposes, even without money changing hands. Under this broad definition, the transfer of your browser identifiers to Google for ad personalization may technically qualify as a “sale” of personal information under California law.

We take this seriously. This is why we provide a clear, easy opt-out mechanism on every page of Quiz Rebel — described in detail below.

What Google does with this data

Google’s use of advertising cookies is governed entirely by Google’s Privacy Policy. Quiz Rebel does not control, access, or profit from the data Google collects via its advertising systems beyond receiving payment for displaying ads.

4. How to Opt Out — Three Ways, Any Time

You have the right to stop the sharing of your browser identifiers with advertising partners at any time. Here are all three ways to do it:

1
Use our Cookie Banner — the fastest method
Every new visitor to Quiz Rebel sees our cookie consent banner at the bottom of the screen. Simply click “Decline” to block all third-party advertising cookies immediately. Your choice is saved in your browser and will persist across visits.

If you have already accepted but want to change your mind, you can reset your consent at any time by clearing your browser’s local storage for quizrebel.com (instructions below).
2
Opt out directly through Google
Visit adssettings.google.com to manage your Google ad personalization settings globally. You can turn off interest-based ads for all websites using Google AdSense, not just Quiz Rebel. This is the most comprehensive opt-out if you use multiple websites with Google advertising.
3
Use your browser’s built-in controls
All major browsers allow you to block third-party cookies entirely, clear existing cookies, or use private/incognito mode. Below are direct links to cookie management settings for the most common browsers:
How to reset your Quiz Rebel cookie consent: Open your browser DevTools (F12) → Application tab → Local Storage → quizrebel.com → delete the key qr_cookie_consent. The banner will reappear on your next visit, allowing you to choose again.

5. Your Rights Under CCPA & CPRA (California Residents)

If you are a California resident, you have the following rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), effective January 1, 2023:

🔍
Right to Know
Request disclosure of the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the sources, the business purposes, and any third parties with whom it is shared.
🗑️
Right to Delete
Request deletion of personal information we have collected from you, subject to certain legal exceptions. (In most cases, the only data we hold is your IP in standard server logs.)
✋
Right to Opt Out of Sale
Direct us to stop “selling” your personal information to third parties, including the sharing of browser identifiers with advertising partners. Use any of the three methods above to exercise this right immediately.
✏️
Right to Correct (CPRA)
Request correction of inaccurate personal information we hold about you. Email us and we will verify and correct any inaccurate records within 45 days.
🤝
Right to Non-Discrimination
Exercising any of these rights will never result in you receiving a lower quality of service, higher prices, or any other discriminatory treatment from Quiz Rebel.
📤
Right to Data Portability
Request a copy of your personal information in a portable, machine-readable format. We will provide what we hold within 45 days of receiving a verified request.
