Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026
KumaType ("we", "our", "the site") is a free, browser-based typing speed test. This policy explains what little data is involved when you use it, and how third-party services like Google AdSense may use cookies once advertising is enabled on this site.
Information we collect
KumaType does not require an account and does not collect or store your typing test results on any server. Your results (WPM, accuracy, language, history) are kept only in your browser's local storage and memory for the current session, and are cleared when you clear your browser data.
Cookies and local storage
We use browser local storage for basic preferences, such as remembering that you've dismissed the cookie notice. We do not use this to identify you personally.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
This site may display advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve ads based on your visits to this site and other sites on the internet. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to this site and/or other sites.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings at google.com/settings/ads.
- You can learn more about how Google uses data when you use partner sites at policies.google.com/technologies/ads.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
Analytics
We may use privacy-conscious analytics (such as Google Analytics) to understand aggregate traffic patterns, such as which languages and test durations are most used. This data is anonymized and is not used to identify individual visitors.
Children's privacy
KumaType is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
