Frequently asked questions
Get clarity on update cadence, AI usage, accessibility, and more.
How often is ConnectionHints.com updated?
We publish fresh hints every morning at 6:00 AM Eastern Time, shortly after the official puzzle updates. If the NYT releases adjustments later in the day, we refresh within two hours.
Will you ever reveal the full answers?
No. Our philosophy is to support your deduction, not replace it. The strongest hint reveals only the official category, and optional trivia offers context—not spoilers.
How do you moderate AI-generated content?
We combine prompt engineering with automated validation and human review. Any hint failing tone, accuracy, or spoiler checks is regenerated or replaced with an editorial fallback.
Does the site track my gameplay?
We collect only aggregate usage metrics—no guesses, no cookies that build marketing profiles. Review the privacy policy for details.
How can I request an accessibility improvement?
Email access@connectionhints.com or visit the accessibility page. We prioritize inclusive updates and respond within 72 hours.
