Privacy Policy
This page explains what happens when you use TypeBurst, how the typing test handles your data, and how cookies and advertising work on this site.
The typing test runs in your browser
The typing test itself is entirely client-side. The passages you type, your keystrokes, and your live scores are processed by your own browser and are never sent to a server. There are no accounts, no sign up forms, and no uploads involved in taking a test.
Local storage
TypeBurstsaves your personal best scores in your browser's local storage so you can try to beat them later. This data stays on your device and you can remove it at any time by clearing your browser's site data for this website.
Cookies, analytics and advertising
TypeBurst may use cookies and similar technologies for basic site analytics, and to show advertising that helps keep the site free to use. When ads are shown, the advertising networks we work with (such as Google AdSense or Ezoic) and their partners may set their own cookies or use similar technology on your device to serve ads, measure performance, and limit how often you see the same ad. These third parties may collect information such as your IP address, device and browser type, and browsing activity on this and other sites, in line with their own privacy policies.
If you are visiting from the EEA, the UK, or another region with similar rules, you will be asked for consent before any non-essential cookies or personalised ads are used, through a consent banner on the site. You can change your choice at any time from that banner, and declining consent does not stop you from using the typing test.
Your choices
You can clear cookies and site data at any time through your browser settings, and many browsers let you block third-party cookies outright. Where available, you can also opt out of personalised advertising directly through the ad network handling it, for example via Google's ad settings.
Hosting
The site is hosted on Vercel. Like most hosting providers, Vercel may process standard technical request data (such as IP addresses) to serve the site and keep it secure. See the Vercel privacy policy for details.
Questions
If you have questions about this policy or how your data is handled, use the contact page and we will get back to you.
Changes
If the way the site works ever changes, this page will be updated to match. Last updated: July 2026.
