What Syntypo is

Syntypo is a typing speed test that runs entirely in your browser. There is no server, no database, and no account system. The app is a static site served from a CDN — once the page loads, it works offline.

Data stored on your device

Syntypo uses your browser's localStorage to save the following information locally on your machine:

  • Typing test results — date, mode, words-per-minute, accuracy, consistency, and duration of each completed test
  • Experience points (XP) and level — awarded based on difficulty and accuracy
  • Streak information — daily activity count derived from test dates
  • Theme preference — whether you selected dark or light mode

None of this data is ever transmitted to any server. It stays in your browser and is never accessible to us or any third party. You can clear all stored data at any time by clicking "Clear all history" on the History page or by clearing your browser's site data.

What we don't collect

Syntypo has no account system, no login, no cookies (other than those described below for advertising), no analytics scripts, no tracking pixels, and no backend servers that receive your keystrokes or test content. Your typing stays on your computer.

Third-party services

Google Fonts

This site loads the Inter and JetBrains Mono font families from Google Fonts. When you visit the site, your browser requests these fonts from Google's servers, which may log your IP address and request metadata. Google's privacy policy applies to that interaction: policies.google.com/privacy.

Google AdSense

This site uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. AdSense uses cookies and web beacons to serve ads based on your visits to this site and other websites across the web. These cookies allow Google and its partners to serve personalized ads based on your interests.

You can learn more about how Google uses data collected through AdSense at policies.google.com/technologies/ads. You can also manage your ad personalization settings at adssettings.google.com.

AdSense is only loaded on the typing test page (/). The history, about, and privacy pages do not load AdSense.

User control

You are in full control of your data:

  • Clear history: visit the History page and click "Clear all history" to delete all stored test results, XP, and streaks.
  • Theme: toggle dark/light mode at any time using the theme button in the toolbar.
  • Browser settings: you can also clear Syntypo's data via your browser's site storage settings.
