Privacy Policy

Welcome to TypeDelta (typedelta.com). We respect your privacy and are committed to maintaining transparent, honest data practices. This policy details how data is handled across our typing speed tests, programming drills, speed certificates, and advertising partners.

1. Information We Collect & How It Is Handled

• Typing Performance & Telemetry: Words per minute (WPM), accuracy percentages, error counts, and consistency scores are processed client-side directly inside your browser. High scores and local preferences are saved to your browser's `localStorage` so your graphs update without requiring an account.
• Zero Keystroke Surveillance: We do not log what words you type during tests. Your keystrokes exist only in volatile browser memory during an active session and are immediately discarded upon test completion.
• Server Logs & Technical Diagnostics: Like all websites, our hosting infrastructure automatically logs standard technical data (IP address, browser type, operating system, and access timestamps) to defend against DDoS attacks and ensure server reliability.
• Optional Google Sign-In: If you voluntarily create an account using Google 1-Click Sign-In, Firebase Authentication securely stores your email and profile name to sync your personal bests and certificates across devices.

2. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising (DART Cookies)

We partner with third-party advertising companies, including Google AdSense, to serve advertisements when you visit our website.

• Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting the Google Ads Settings page.
• Alternatively, you can opt out of third-party vendor cookies for personalized advertising by visiting the Digital Advertising Alliance (AboutAds.info) or the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI).

3. Cookies and Local Storage

TypeDelta uses local storage and cookies to retain your personal interface preferences (such as your chosen visual theme, mechanical switch sound volume, font family, and test duration presets). Third-party vendors and ad networks may also place cookies or web beacons on your browser to measure advertisement effectiveness and prevent repetitive ad impressions.

4. European Economic Area (GDPR) Disclosures

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, you hold specific statutory rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including:

• The right to access any personal data we maintain about you.
• The right to rectify inaccurate or incomplete data.
• The right to request total erasure of your cloud account and stored test records.
• The right to object to or restrict processing of your personal information.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact our Data Protection desk directly at support@typedelta.com.

5. California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) Disclosures

Under the CCPA / CPRA, California residents have the right to know what personal data is collected, request deletion, and opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. TypeDelta does not sell personal information for monetary consideration. For programmatic ad personalization opt-outs, follow the Google Ad Settings links detailed above.

6. Data Security & Encryption

All data transmitted between your device and TypeDelta is protected using modern Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3 / HTTPS encryption). We enforce strict security protocols to prevent unauthorized access or alteration of user records.
