Privacy Policy
Your privacy is not just a policy here — it's baked into how our tools are built.
Short version: onlinekeyboardtest.tech does not collect, store, or transmit your keystrokes. All keyboard testing runs entirely inside your web browser. We have no access to what keys you press, ever.
1. Information We Collect
onlinekeyboardtest.tech is designed to collect as little data as possible. We do not require you to create an account, provide an email address, or submit any personal information to use any of our tools.
The only data that may be passively collected is standard web server log data, which typically includes:
- Your IP address (in anonymized or truncated form where possible)
- The URL of the page you visited
- Your browser type and version
- Your operating system
- The date and time of your visit
- The referring URL (the page that linked you here)
This information is used solely for server security, uptime monitoring, and aggregate traffic analysis. It is not sold, rented, or shared with third parties for marketing purposes.
2. Keystroke & Key Press Data
We do not log, record, store, or transmit your keystrokes. All key detection on onlinekeyboardtest.tech runs entirely client-side using standard browser JavaScript APIs (KeyboardEvent). When you press a key, the event is processed locally by your browser — it is never sent to our servers or any third-party server.
This is not just a policy statement — it is a technical fact. Our tools contain no server-side keystroke logging code, no WebSocket connections transmitting key events, and no analytics hooks tied to individual key presses.
The moment you close the tab or refresh the page, all test results are permanently discarded. Nothing is saved to your browser's localStorage or cookies by the keyboard testing tools themselves.
3. Cookies & Local Storage
Our core keyboard testing tools do not use cookies or localStorage to track you. Some optional preferences (such as your last-selected keyboard layout) may be stored in your browser's localStorage purely for convenience. This data never leaves your device.
Third-party services embedded on the site (such as analytics or advertising, described below) may set their own cookies. You can manage or block these through your browser's cookie settings or a browser extension such as uBlock Origin.
4. Analytics & Third-Party Services
We may use privacy-respecting analytics services to understand aggregate usage patterns — such as which tools are most popular and how users navigate the site. Any analytics we use are configured to anonymize IP addresses and not share individual user data with us.
We do not use invasive tracking pixels or cross-site tracking technologies.
5. Advertising
onlinekeyboardtest.tech is a free service. To support its ongoing development, we may display advertisements served by third-party ad networks (such as Google AdSense). These networks may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites on the internet.
You can opt out of interest-based advertising by visiting aboutads.info/choices or by adjusting your browser's privacy settings.
6. External Links
Our website contains links to external sites (such as our blog, partner tools, or referenced resources). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any external site you visit.
7. Children's Privacy
onlinekeyboardtest.tech is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.
8. Data Security
We take reasonable technical measures to protect the limited data we do handle. Our site is served over HTTPS to encrypt data in transit. Since we collect minimal data in the first place, your exposure is inherently limited.
9. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable privacy laws (such as GDPR in the EU or CCPA in California), including the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you. Since we collect almost no personal data, most requests can be fulfilled simply by closing your browser tab.
For any formal data requests, please contact us using the information below.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
