Privacy Policy

The short version: you can play everything without an account, anonymous scores stay in your browser, and an optional account stores only your email, display name and game progress.

Last updated: September 2026

Anonymous play

Without an account, your scores and badges are saved in your browser's local storage, on your device. They never leave your machine and we cannot see them. Clearing your browser data removes them.

Optional accounts

If you create an account we store your email address, a display name you choose, and a securely hashed password — passwords are never stored in readable form. We also store your game progress (best scores, badges, play counts) so it can sync across your devices, and your display name with best scores appears on the public leaderboards. We do not sell or share this data, send marketing email, or collect anything beyond what's listed here. To delete your account and all associated data, email us from your account address.

Cookies

Signing in sets one strictly necessary session cookie (tgh_session) that keeps you logged in; it contains a random token and nothing else.

Analytics

Since September 2026 we use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used. It sets first-party cookies (_ga and _ga_*) on every visit, including anonymous play, and records which pages are viewed, where visitors arrive from, and how the games are played: when a game is shown and started, how long a round lasts, and that round's WPM and accuracy. We use this only to improve the games and the site. We don't run ads and don't use analytics data for ad targeting. You can block it with a content blocker or Google's Analytics opt-out browser add-on; every game works the same without it.

Server logs

Our hosting provider (Cloudflare) processes standard server logs, such as IP addresses and requested pages, to serve the site securely; these are governed by Cloudflare's privacy practices.

Children's privacy

The games are playable by all ages without any signup. Accounts are intended for adults and teens; we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, and anonymous play asks no one for a name, email or any other personal detail. The usage analytics described above apply to all visitors.
