Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our Typing Test Application (the "App").
Information Collection and Use
When you use the App, we may collect certain personally identifiable information, such as your name, email address, and typing data. This information is collected solely for the purpose of improving your typing speed and the App's functionality aimed at providing you with a better user experience.
Biometric Data Collection
Important: TypingSense collects keystroke-level data that has biometric characteristics. This includes:
- Every individual keystroke during typing exercises
- Precise timing of key presses and releases (millisecond precision)
- Typing rhythm and patterns unique to you
- Error patterns and correction behaviors
This data creates a unique "typing fingerprint" that could potentially be used to identify you. We treat this data with the highest level of security and never share it with third parties. For more information, please see our Data Sensitivity Information page.
Data Collection and Storage
We collect and store your typing data to analyze user performance, track progress, and generate statistical insights to enhance your typing speed, as well as the App's features and performance. Your personal typing data is securely stored and accessible only to authorized personnel.
Data Retention
We will retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with legal obligations. After that, your data will be securely deleted or anonymized.
Data Sharing
We do not share your personal data with any third parties without your explicit consent, except as required by law or to facilitate App functionality (e.g., hosting services or analytics tools).
Security
We take the security of your personal information seriously. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, disclosure, or destruction.
Mature Data Processing and Retention Practices
- Encryption: All data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS) and at rest in our databases
- Access Control: Strict authorization policies limit data access to essential personnel only
- Automated Retention: Detailed keystroke data is automatically deleted after 30 days (except for lessons requiring improvement)
- Data Aggregation: Long-term analytics use aggregated statistics rather than raw keystroke data
- Regular Audits: We conduct security assessments and privacy audits
- No Third-Party Sharing: Your typing data is never shared with external parties
