Last updated: May 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how KeySpeedTest collects, uses, and protects information when you use this typing speed test website. By using KeySpeedTest, you agree to the practices described below.
Information We Store Locally
KeySpeedTest uses your browser's localStorage to save the following data on your device:
- Theme preference (light or dark mode)
- Sound preference
- Typing test history (WPM, accuracy, date)
- Personal best scores
This information remains on your device only and is used to power the statistics and history features. KeySpeedTest does not transmit your typing history to any external server or third party. You can clear this data at any time by clearing site data in your browser settings.
Information Collected Automatically
Like many websites, KeySpeedTest may collect basic technical information through hosting logs, analytics tools, or advertising partners. This may include:
- Browser type and version
- Device type (desktop, tablet, mobile)
- Approximate geographic location (country or region level)
- Pages viewed and time spent
- Referral source (the website or search engine that brought you here)
- General interactions with the site
This information is used in aggregate form to understand how visitors use KeySpeedTest and to improve the site's performance, content, and usability. It is not used to identify you personally.
Cookies and Advertising
KeySpeedTest displays advertisements through Google AdSense and may use other third-party advertising partners. These partners may use cookies, pixels, web beacons, or similar technologies to:
- Serve advertisements based on your interests
- Measure the performance of advertisements
- Prevent fraudulent activity
- Personalize advertising where permitted by law
Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites across the internet. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to this site and other sites on the internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's ad settings or aboutads.info. You can also manage cookie preferences in your browser settings.
Analytics
KeySpeedTest may use analytics services such as Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with the site. Analytics data helps us identify which features are most useful, how people navigate between pages, and where improvements are needed. Analytics data is processed in aggregate and does not require an account or identify individual users.
Third-Party Links and Services
KeySpeedTest may contain links to external websites, tools, or resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, terms of service, or content of third-party websites. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any external site you visit.
KeySpeedTest uses the Google Translate widget to offer translated versions of the site. Google's use of data through this service is governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
Children's Privacy
KeySpeedTest is a general-audience typing practice website suitable for all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. KeySpeedTest does not require account creation, email submission, or any personal data input from users. If you believe a child has inadvertently provided personal information through a contact form, please contact us immediately so that we can remove it.

You have several options to control the data associated with your use of KeySpeedTest:
- Clear localStorage — Go to your browser's developer tools or settings and clear site data for keyspeedtest.com to remove all locally stored history and preferences.
- Disable cookies — You can configure your browser to block or delete cookies. Note that disabling cookies may affect how ads are served.
