Words stores your saved word list locally on your device using Chrome's
chrome.storage.local API. We do not operate a server and do not
collect personal data.
When you look up a word, the extension sends that word to Wiktionary, Datamuse, and dictionaryapi.dev to fetch a definition. The first source that responds is used. If you tap the speaker control, the extension may play pronunciation audio returned by the dictionary service. If audio is unavailable, your browser's built-in text-to-speech may be used instead. Those third-party services have their own privacy policies.
We do not sell, share, or transmit your saved word list to any party.
Remove individual saved words with the ✓ control in the lookup
card or popup. To erase your entire saved word list, uninstall the extension
from chrome://extensions.
