Data Sensitivity Information
⚠️ Important Privacy Notice
TypingSense collects highly detailed typing data that has biometric characteristics. Please read this information carefully to understand what data we collect and why it requires special protection.
What Data We Collect
Keystroke-Level Data
- Every keystroke you type during exercises
- Precise timing of each key press and release (millisecond precision)
- Key sequences and typing patterns
- Corrections and errors including backspaces and deletions
- Typing rhythm and pause patterns between keystrokes
Performance Metrics
- Words per minute (WPM) calculations
- Accuracy percentages
- Error patterns and frequencies
- Learning progression over time
Why This Data Is Sensitive
Biometric Nature of Typing Patterns
Your typing patterns are as unique as your fingerprint. The way you type - including rhythm, pressure patterns, and key transition times - creates a distinctive "typing fingerprint" that can potentially:
- Identify you across different platforms
- Be used for behavioral biometric authentication
- Reveal personal characteristics and habits
- Indicate physical or cognitive states
How We Protect Your Data
Mature Data Processing and Retention Practices
- Encryption: All typing data is encrypted both in transit (HTTPS) and at rest in our databases
- Access Control: Strict authorization policies limit data access to essential personnel only
- Data Retention: Automated retention policies delete detailed keystroke data after 30 days (except for lessons requiring improvement)
- Aggregation: Long-term analytics use aggregated statistics rather than raw keystroke data
- Security Audits: Regular security assessments and privacy audits
- No Third-Party Sharing: Your typing data is never shared with external parties
Your Rights and Control
You Have the Right To:
- Access: Request a copy of all your typing data
- Delete: Request complete deletion of your account and all associated data
- Export: Download your data in a portable format
- Opt-out: Choose which types of data processing you consent to
- Be Informed: Receive notifications about any changes to our data practices
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at privacy@typingsense.com
Beta Phase Notice
🚀 Beta Development Status
