Privacy Policy
Last updated: 20 July 2026.
This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) explains how Mind Work Solutions (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and protects personal data of users (“you”) of the vocabulary learning application “My Words: Learn Vocabulary” (“App”) and its websites (https://mywords.app, https://my-words.ru, https://mindworksolutions.nl, https://app.my-words.ru and https://links.my-words.app), collectively referred to as the “Services”.
We are committed to protecting your data and complying with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Russian Federal Law on Personal Data, and other applicable privacy laws.
1. Who We Are
Mind Work Solutions is a company based in the Netherlands. For CloudPayments purchases, our authorized local partner ИП Бабкин Алексей Владимирович (ИНН 246307200869, ОГРН/ОГРНИП 325246800079370), registered under Russian law, acts as the merchant/seller and as an independent controller of related payment records. For support and privacy inquiries relating to Mind Work Solutions’ processing, contact us at support@mindworksolutions.nl.
2. Scope
This Policy applies to the Services offered worldwide via the App Store, Google Play, and our websites. It covers both data we process directly and data collected by third-party services used to provide the Services.
3. What Data We Collect
Platform-specific note: Registration is optional on iOS and Android. Core features work without an account.
On iOS, if you do not register or do not enable My Words account sync, we do not collect your learning content. Learning data remains on your device or in your private iCloud. A non-identifiable record may be stored to manage premium access. Signing into an account that already has a linked premium subscription allows access to premium features.
If you register and have a premium subscription, and (on iOS) choose to enable sync, the following categories of data are collected and stored securely:
Account data (registered users):
- Email address (if provided)
- Account identifier
- Account creation date
Learning data (registered premium users who enable sync):
- Vocabulary and translation content you create or save
- Categories and category images
- Custom texts and notes
- Learning statistics and goals
On https://app.my-words.ru and https://links.my-words.app, users in Russia may register or sign in and make CloudPayments purchases. In that case we process account data needed for registration, sign-in, and premium access, together with subscription status and transaction or order references needed to administer the purchase.
General app usage, crash reporting, and device data may be collected by third-party services for analytics and advertising purposes (see section 7).
Payments: We do not store payment-card details. Payment details are processed by the App Store, Google Play, or CloudPayments according to the purchase channel. CloudPayments purchases are linked to a My Words account. We and/or our Russian payment partner may retain subscription status and transaction or order references for purchase administration and legal obligations. See section 6A.
Contact Form: If you contact us via the form on our websites, we collect your email address, message, and (optionally) your name. This information is used only to respond to your inquiry and is not stored long-term. It may be temporarily accessible via our website provider or email system until we reply.
Website cookies: On https://app.my-words.ru and https://links.my-words.app we use:
- Strictly necessary cookies required for authentication, profile, and purchases. These cookies are needed for the websites to function and cannot be disabled through the cookie consent controls.
- Optional Google Analytics cookies used to understand how the websites are used. These cookies are set only if you consent. You can reject them and change your preference through the website cookie controls.

We use encryption in transit and access controls appropriate to the Services. We do not publish detailed security architecture.
6. Consent Management
On iOS, the app uses Apple’s App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt and Google’s Consent SDK. On Android, Google’s UMP Consent SDK is used to obtain and manage advertising consent. On the purchase websites, cookie preferences for optional analytics cookies are managed through the website cookie controls.
6A. Purchases and Payments
Purchase channels:
- App Store purchases — iOS in-app purchases;
- Google Play purchases — Android in-app purchases outside Russia;
- CloudPayments purchases — Android in-app purchases in Russia, and purchases by users in Russia on https://app.my-words.ru and https://links.my-words.app.
We do not store payment-card details. Payment details are processed by the App Store, Google Play, or CloudPayments according to the purchase channel. CloudPayments purchases are linked to a My Words account.
7. Third-Party Services
We rely on the following external services:
- Google Ireland Ltd. — authentication, cloud storage, crash reporting, analytics, advertising, and website analytics where enabled
- Yandex LLC — analytics and advertising
- CloudPayments LLC (Russia) — payment processor for CloudPayments purchases
These services may transfer data internationally under Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent safeguards.
8. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access, correct, or delete your data
- Restrict or object to its processing
- Request data portability where applicable
- Withdraw consent (where applicable)

Registered users can delete their account via profile settings in the App or on the purchase websites. Account deletion removes account and synced learning data stored by us, subject to records retained for legal, accounting, or dispute-resolution purposes.

9. Children’s Privacy
The App can be used by children without registration. We do not knowingly collect personal data from users under 13 (or the legal age in your country) through registration, sync, or purchases. If you believe such data has been submitted, contact us.
10. Updates
We may update this Policy. Major changes will be posted in the App or on the website. Continued use of the Services implies acceptance.
11. Language Versions
This Policy is available in English, Spanish, and Russian. In case of conflict, the English version prevails.
