Advertising Disclosure

How ads are shown on MyWordIQ, and the lines we do not cross.

Last updated October 6, 2026

Why there is advertising

MyWordIQ is free to play. Advertising may appear on the website to cover the cost of running it and creating new puzzles. Our primary advertising partner is Google AdSense.

How ads are presented

  • Separated from game controls. Advertisements are not placed next to, between or over the Submit, Hint, Reveal, Share, Play or navigation buttons, or inside the game board.
  • Clearly labeled. Ad areas carry the label “Advertisement” and are visually distinct from site content.
  • Never required. You never have to view, watch or click an advertisement to play a game, get a hint, continue a puzzle or open the archive.
  • No interruptions. We do not show pop-ups or full-screen ads in the middle of a puzzle.

What we ask of you

Please do not click on ads to “support” the site. Click an advertisement only if you are genuinely interested in it. We never ask or reward anyone for clicking ads.

Who chooses the ads

Ads are selected and delivered by Google and its advertising partners, not by us. They may be based on the content of the page or, if you have allowed it, on your interests. An advertisement appearing on MyWordIQ is not an endorsement by us of the product or advertiser.

Cookies and personalization

Advertising partners may use cookies to show and measure ads. You can control personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings and learn more in our Privacy Policy.

Advertising and editorial content

Advertisers have no influence over our puzzles, guides or word resources. Product links that earn us a commission are a separate matter and are explained in the Affiliate Disclosure.

Report a problem

If you see an advertisement that is misleading, inappropriate, or that got in the way of a game, please tell us at contact@mywordiq.com with a screenshot if you can.
