1. Introduction & Scope
Welcome to Typing Game Zone ("we", "our", or "us"), accessible via typinggamezone.com. We operate a free online arcade featuring 21 2D typing games, touch typing practice modules, WPM speed benchmarks, mechanical keyboard sound synthesis, and multi-language keyboard tools.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and safeguard your information when you visit our website. By accessing or using Typing Game Zone, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.
2. Information We Collect
We follow a strict policy of data minimization. We only collect the minimal technical data required to deliver reliable, high-performance web experiences.
A. Information Stored Locally on Your Browser
Typing Game Zone is built on a client-side local-first architecture. When you play games or complete typing tests, the following data is saved directly in your browser's localStorage and is not transmitted to or stored on our servers:
- Game high scores, levels unlocked, and survival progress.
- Typing speed history (WPM, accuracy percentage, consistency rate, error counts).
- User interface preferences (chosen color theme from 17 Monkeytype palettes).
- Audio synthesizer settings (mechanical switch sound profile, volume, and mute state).
- Selected language and input layout preferences.
B. Information You Voluntarily Provide
If you contact us via email at contact@typinggamezone.com or submit a message through our Contact Us form, we receive your email address, name (if provided), and any details you share in your message. This data is used solely to respond to your inquiry.
C. Technical & Diagnostic Data (Server Logs)
Like virtually all web platforms, our web host may automatically log standard technical data when you load pages, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, date/time stamps, and requested resource paths. This data is used solely for security maintenance, DDoS mitigation, and server performance diagnostics.
3. How We Use Information
We use collected technical and contact information strictly for legitimate operational purposes, including:
- Providing, optimizing, and ensuring smooth 60 FPS gameplay across all 21 games.
- Remembering your visual and audio customization choices across sessions.
- Troubleshooting technical bugs, browser compatibility issues, and latency anomalies.
- Responding to player questions, suggestions, bug reports, and feedback.
- Protecting the integrity, safety, and security of our platform and users.
4. Local Storage & Cookie Usage
Typing Game Zone primarily relies on modern browser localStorage instead of intrusive tracking cookies.
How to clear your local data:
You maintain 100% control over your stored progress. You can clear your game scores and custom settings at any time by clearing your browser cache and site data for typinggamezone.com in your browser settings.
We do not use tracking cookies for cross-site behavioral profiling or retargeting advertisements.
5. Third-Party Services & Analytics
We may use privacy-centric third-party hosting infrastructures (such as Vercel, Netlify, or Cloudflare) and Google Fonts to deliver lightning-fast static assets and fonts. These providers may process technical network requests in compliance with industry-standard privacy and security frameworks.
We do not permit third-party advertising networks to track your browsing behaviors across external websites.
6. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)
Typing Game Zone is an educational and entertainment platform designed for typists, students, and gamers of all age groups. Because we do not require account registration or collect personal identifiable information, our platform is safe for children and students practicing typing in classrooms and at home.
We comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information via direct contact, please reach out to us at contact@typinggamezone.com and we will promptly delete it.
7. Data Security & Storage
We employ industry-standard HTTPS encryption (SSL/TLS) for all data transmitted between your browser and our servers. Our client-side games and tools run safely within your browser's sandboxed environment without executing arbitrary external binaries.
While no method of electronic transmission or internet storage is 100% secure, our architecture minimizes risk by eliminating centralized personal user databases.
8. Your Data Protection Rights (GDPR & CCPA)
Depending on your location, you may have specific privacy rights under regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA):
- Right of Access & Portability: You have the right to request details of any personal data we hold about you.
- Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten): You may request the deletion of any personal communications or contact records.
- Right to Rectification: You may request corrections to any inaccurate personal information.
- Right to Non-Discrimination: We never discriminate against any user for exercising their privacy rights.
To exercise any of these rights, please email us at contact@typinggamezone.com.
