Privacy Policy for Private Typing Speed Tracker

Last Updated: May 2026

Welcome to Private Typing Speed Tracker. Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information is — and is not — collected when using the extension.

Overview

Private Typing Speed Tracker is designed with a privacy-first approach. The extension operates locally within your browser to estimate typing speed, typing averages, and estimated typing accuracy during normal web usage.

The extension does not collect, store, sell, share, or transmit personal information or typed content.

Information We Collect

We Do Not Collect Personal Data

Private Typing Speed Tracker does not collect or store:

• Typed text or message contents

• Passwords

• Login information

• Payment information

• Browsing history

• Personal identifiers

• Names, addresses, or emails

• Keystroke logs

• Documents or form contents

• Analytics data

• Tracking cookies

• Device fingerprints

The extension does not send any user information to external servers.

How the Extension Works

The extension temporarily monitors browser typing activity locally within the active browser session in order to calculate:

• Live words-per-minute (WPM)

• Smoothed average WPM

• Estimated typing accuracy

• Pause/resume timing states

All calculations occur locally on the user's device.

No typing data is stored after the browser session ends.

Accuracy Disclaimer

Typing speed and accuracy values are estimates intended for informational and productivity purposes only.

Because Private Typing Speed Tracker prioritizes privacy and does not analyze or store actual typed content, certain measurements may not perfectly reflect exact typing performance in every website, editor, or browser environment.

Estimated accuracy calculations are based on generalized typing behavior such as corrections and deletions rather than full content analysis.

Data Storage

Private Typing Speed Tracker does not maintain external databases or cloud storage systems.

Current versions of the extension:

• do not create user accounts,

• do not upload session data,

• and do not retain typing history remotely.

Any temporary session information exists only locally within the browser while the extension is active.

Third-Party Services

Private Typing Speed Tracker does not use:

• advertising networks,

• analytics platforms,

• remote tracking systems,

• behavioral profiling tools,

• or third-party data collection services.

The extension does not sell or monetize user data.

Permissions

The extension may request access to websites (<all_urls>) in order to function consistently across webpages, web applications, and online editors where users type.

This permission is used solely to:

• detect typing activity locally,

• display the overlay interface,

• and calculate typing metrics.

Website access is not used to collect, read, transmit, or store personal content.

Children's Privacy

Private Typing Speed Tracker is not directed toward children under the age of 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Security

Because user typing data is not transmitted or centrally stored, exposure risks are significantly minimized.

All extension functionality operates locally within the user's browser environment.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically to reflect:

• feature changes,

• browser policy requirements,

• legal requirements,

• or extension updates.

Updated versions will be posted alongside the extension listing or associated website.

Contact

For questions regarding this Privacy Policy or the extension itself, users may contact the developer through the extension listing or associated website contact information.

Summary

Private Typing Speed Tracker was built specifically to provide a more natural typing experience without invasive tracking, cloud storage, or unnecessary data collection.

Your typing stays yours.
