Privacy Policy

01Introduction

TypeGrade operates https://typegrade.com/, a website that provides online typing tests and related educational resources. This Privacy Policy describes how information may be handled in connection with your use of the website.

This policy applies to information processed through the TypeGrade website and its available features. It does not identify a legal operator or registered address because that information has not been verified for this draft. For privacy questions, contact support@typegrade.com.

02Information We Collect

The information TypeGrade handles depends on the features you use and the services enabled on the deployed website. We do not intend this list to state that every category is collected in every circumstance.

Information you provide

If you contact TypeGrade, you may provide your name, email address, subject, and message. If accounts are offered, account-related information may also be processed as necessary to provide that feature.

Technical information

Website hosting, security, and diagnostic systems may process technical information such as IP address, browser and device details, operating system, requested pages, access timestamps, and server log information. The exact information and retention depend on the configured services.

Typing and storage information

Typing tests may generate results such as words per minute, accuracy, mistakes, duration, and selected settings. Cookies, session information, and browser storage may also be used where the website’s implementation requires them. Section 5 explains the need to verify how typing data is processed.

03How We Use Information

TypeGrade may use information to operate and maintain the website, provide typing test functionality and displayed results, respond to support inquiries, protect the service against misuse, diagnose technical issues, and improve usability.

Where accounts, analytics, or other optional features are enabled, information may be used for the associated feature only as described by the applicable implementation and notice. TypeGrade does not represent through this policy that it conducts personalization, behavioral profiling, advertising, or marketing unless those activities are separately confirmed.

04Legal Bases for Processing

Where privacy laws such as the GDPR apply, a lawful basis is required for personal-data processing. The appropriate basis depends on the specific processing activity, the visitor’s location, and the website’s actual configuration.

Depending on the circumstances, TypeGrade may rely on consent, steps taken at your request or performance of a contract, legitimate interests in operating and securing the website, or compliance with legal obligations. TypeGrade should document the purpose-specific basis for each deployed processing activity; this policy does not claim that every activity automatically falls under a particular basis.

05Typing Test Data

Typing tests can process text entered during a test and generate information including WPM, accuracy, errors, selected duration, practice settings, and—if available—test history. The way this information is handled depends on the deployed typing test implementation.

Before publication, TypeGrade must confirm whether typing input and results are processed only in the browser, stored in localStorage or other browser storage, transmitted to TypeGrade servers, linked to an account, or disclosed to a third-party service. Until verified, TypeGrade does not promise that typing data is never transmitted, stored, or shared.

06Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small files placed on a browser. Similar technologies can include session storage and local storage. Depending on the website configuration, these technologies may support strictly necessary operation, login or session management, saved preferences, analytics, or other enabled services.

Browser storage is distinct from cookies and may be used by website functionality to retain settings on your device. You can generally manage cookies and site data through your browser settings, although disabling some technologies may affect website features. TypeGrade does not claim that a consent manager or nonessential-cookie controls are available unless they are actually implemented.

If nonessential cookies or similar technologies require consent under applicable law, TypeGrade should provide the required controls before activating them; this Privacy Policy alone does not provide consent.

07Analytics and Third-Party Services

Third-party providers may support hosting, content delivery, email, security, analytics, embedded content, or other technical functions. Their involvement, data handling, and privacy notices depend on the services actually enabled on TypeGrade.

No specific analytics, advertising, payment, hosting, CDN, font, or anti-spam provider is identified here because the available configuration has not verified one. Before publication, TypeGrade should list each applicable provider, its purpose, and relevant privacy information where appropriate.

08Contact Forms and Communications

TypeGrade’s Contact page uses Contact Form 7 and includes required Name, Email, and Subject fields, with an optional Message field. This information is collected to review and respond to your inquiry and to maintain related communications where necessary.

Contact Form 7 can send submissions by email but does not itself establish whether submissions are stored in the WordPress database. Before publication, TypeGrade should confirm whether submissions are retained in email inboxes, WordPress, or plugins such as Flamingo or email-log tools; who can access them; and the applicable retention practice.

You can send privacy-related communications to support@typegrade.com. TypeGrade does not promise a specific response time through this policy.

09Data Sharing and Disclosure

TypeGrade may make information available to service providers when needed to operate the website, such as hosting, email delivery, analytics, security, or technical support providers. Information may also be disclosed where required by law or in response to a valid legal process.

Sharing information with a service provider is different from selling personal information. This policy does not make an unconditional statement about sales or sharing because those practices must be confirmed against TypeGrade’s actual operations and applicable law.

10Data Retention

TypeGrade should retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to inquiries, maintaining security, resolving disputes, and meeting legal obligations.

Precise retention periods for contact inquiries, server logs, analytics records, account data, and any server-side typing results have not been verified for this draft. Where a fixed period is not established, TypeGrade should apply documented criteria such as the nature of the data, the service purpose, security needs, and legal requirements. Information stored only in your browser may remain there until you clear it or the browser removes it.

11Data Security

TypeGrade may use reasonable technical and organizational measures appropriate to its actual systems, such as HTTPS, access controls, software updates, restricted administrative access, and hosting security measures. The safeguards in use should be verified and maintained as the website evolves.

No internet-based system can guarantee absolute security. TypeGrade therefore cannot guarantee that information will always be secure or that unauthorized access will never occur.

12International Data Transfers

Information may be processed or stored in countries other than your own when TypeGrade or its service providers use infrastructure or support services located internationally. The relevant locations and transfer arrangements have not been confirmed for this draft.

Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, TypeGrade should implement and describe the appropriate mechanism for the confirmed transfer, such as contractual safeguards or another legally recognized arrangement.

13Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction and the circumstances, you may have rights to request access to personal information, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, restrict or object to processing, receive portable information, withdraw consent, or complain to an applicable supervisory authority.

These rights are not identical in every jurisdiction and may be subject to legal limitations or verification requirements. To make a privacy-related request, email support@typegrade.com with enough information for TypeGrade to understand and evaluate your request. This policy does not promise a universal response period or account-dashboard deletion tools.

14Children's Privacy

TypeGrade has not verified a minimum-age policy or whether the website is directed to children. The website’s availability to students or younger visitors should be evaluated against applicable children’s privacy requirements before publication.

If a parent or guardian believes a child has provided personal information to TypeGrade, they may contact support@typegrade.com to raise the concern. TypeGrade should assess and respond in accordance with applicable law and its verified practices.

15Third-Party Websites

TypeGrade may link to websites or services operated by third parties. Those websites have their own privacy practices, and TypeGrade does not control their collection, use, or disclosure of information. Review the privacy policy of any third-party website you visit.

16Changes to This Privacy Policy

TypeGrade may revise this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in website features, legal requirements, or privacy practices. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page will reflect the date of a published revision.

TypeGrade should use additional notice methods for material changes only where those methods are actually available and appropriate. The current version is dated October 18, 2026.
