Privacy policy
This policy explains what information Typing Monsters (typingmonsters.com, "we") collects when you play, and what third-party services on the site do. The short version: we don't ask for your name, email or any account, and you can play without giving us anything.
Information stored on your device
The game uses your browser's local storage to remember settings and progress: your hero name (randomly generated unless you change it), sound preference, best scores and similar game state. This stays in your browser. You can delete it at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser settings.
Game scores
When a game ends, your score, level, words per minute, accuracy, the date and your hero name may be saved to our score database (Google Firebase) so we can show high scores. Hero names are generated randomly by default; please don't use your real name or other personal details as a hero name. No email address, account or device identifier is attached to a score.
Feedback messages
If you send feedback through the site, we receive the text you write and use it only to reply and improve the game. Don't include personal information you don't want us to have.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how many people play, which pages they visit and how long games last. Google Analytics uses cookies and collects information such as your approximate location, device and browser type, and pages viewed. We don't use it to identify you personally. You can opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Advertising and cookies
This site uses Google AdSense to show ads, which keeps the game free.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
- You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info.
Visitors in the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland may be shown a consent message before personalised ads or analytics cookies are used. For details of how Google uses data, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
Children
Typing Monsters is suitable for players of all ages and doesn't knowingly collect personal information from children. Because we never ask for names, emails or accounts, children can play without giving us personal data. Parents who believe a child has entered personal information as a hero name can contact us to have that score removed.
Your choices and requests
You can clear local game data through your browser, block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and use the opt-out links above. To ask us to remove a score from our database, email us with the hero name, score and approximate date.
Changes to this policy
If we change how the site handles data, we'll update this page and the date at the top.
