Privacy Policy
Plain-language summary of what TypWiz stores in your browser and on the server.
What stays in your browser
TypWiz does not require an account. Your theme preference (light or dark mode), personal best scores, recent test history, lesson progress, weak-key accuracy stats and game coins are stored locally in your own browser via localStorage. Clearing your browser site data removes them at any time.
What is sent to our server
- Completed test and game scores: when you finish a test, lesson or game, your WPM, accuracy, duration, language and score are sent to record anonymous aggregate statistics.
- Anonymous daily visit counts: we count daily visitors using a salted one-way hash of your IP address and browser user-agent. Raw IP addresses are never stored in our database.
- Admin session cookie: only site administrators signing into the private admin panel receive a session cookie.
