Privacy policy

webtype.org is an independent project run by an individual, not a registered company. The contact address for any privacy question, including requests to access or erase data, is admin@webtype.org.

You can solve every puzzle without registering. No name, email or password is asked for, so none is stored. Your solutions, stroke counts and streak live in your own browser, in localStorage, and never leave the device. Clearing site data erases them permanently — there is no server copy to restore from.

The TypeScript compiler runs inside your browser, in a web worker. Your attempts are type-checked locally and are never uploaded, logged or read by anyone. That is a consequence of how the site is built, not a promise we have to police.

If — and only if — you accept the cookie banner, Google Analytics 4 records anonymous usage: which puzzle was viewed, how many attempts it took, whether the hint was used, and which language you read in. Google Consent Mode v2 is configured with every signal denied by default, advertising signals denied permanently, and IP anonymisation on. Decline and no analytics cookie is ever written.

Browsers sending Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control are treated as a refusal and are never shown the banner at all.

The site is served by Vercel, which keeps short-lived operational logs containing IP addresses and user agents, as any web server does. Supabase stores site configuration and the single operator account; it holds no visitor data. Both act as processors and are bound by their own data-processing terms.

Under the GDPR you may request access to, correction of, or erasure of any personal data, and you may withdraw analytics consent at any time using the “Cookies” link in the footer. Because no account exists, the only data tied to you is whatever Google Analytics holds under its own retention policy. Write to admin@webtype.org and you will get a reply from a person.
