Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 8, 2026
HeroTyping stores guest settings and progress locally. Signed-in accounts sync profile, lesson, game, and typing-result data to the service so it is available across sessions.
What we store
Guest test settings, vocabulary, lesson progress, and personal-best scores are saved in your browser's localStorage. Signed-in profile and gameplay progress is saved to your account. Clearing browser site data removes guest data, but does not remove cloud data.
If you use the custom-text typing mode, the text you paste is held only in your browser's memory for that session and is not saved or uploaded anywhere.
Advertising
HeroTyping does not currently serve any ads. When advertising (via Google AdSense) is introduced, Google and its partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve and measure ads, as described in Google's own policies at policies.google.com/technologies/ads. This page will be updated with full details before ads go live.
Analytics
HeroTyping uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) in production to collect anonymized usage statistics — including pageviews, session duration, general device type, and approximate geographic location (country/region) — to understand site traffic and improve our features.
No personally identifiable information (PII), passwords, typed text, or individual keystrokes are ever sent to Google Analytics. Aggregate product interaction events (such as starting or completing a lesson, game, practice session, or typing test with summary speed and accuracy numbers) may be measured to evaluate curriculum and game engagement, but raw keystroke sequences and user-typed text remain strictly on your local device.
You can block analytics tracking at any time by enabling standard browser content blockers (such as uBlock Origin), using browser privacy protections, or installing Google's official Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes — for example when advertising is introduced — this page will be updated and the “last updated” date above will change accordingly.
