Cookie Policy | KeyTute

1. Cookies and similar storage

Cookies are small browser records sent with matching requests. Local storage stays in the browser and is read by page scripts; session storage is scoped to a browser tab or session. Rules about device storage can cover more than traditional cookies.

2. Necessary storage

Django session and CSRF cookies support account login, request security and guest attempt ownership. Their actual configured names and lifetimes appear in the inventory below. The typelearn_consent cookie records the preference you explicitly save for up to 180 days.

Exam recovery uses session storage with a typelearn-exam: prefix. It can include typed text and edit events for the active exam. The controller removes its record after a successful completion or abandonment response. This recovery function is part of the requested exam attempt, not an advertising profile.

3. Optional functional history

The browser history key prefix typelearn.performance.v1. stores up to 30 recent non-exam performance summaries per scope, including WPM, accuracy, character counts, mistaken keys and completion times. It is not the complete custom source text. Optional functional history is disabled until you enable it in Cookie Preferences.

Reject Non-Essential or withdrawing functional permission blocks reading and saving that history. When a normal site page loads, the preference script removes matching history keys after rejection. If a browser prevents removal, use its site-data controls. This does not delete server-side account history.

4. Analytics and advertising categories

Analytics consent controls eligible Google Analytics measurement separately from optional practice history. Advertising consent is a separate choice and does not enable ads unless production account settings and an advertising consent integration are ready.

Our cookie preferences banner is not a Google-certified consent management platform. For personalized ads in the EEA, UK and Switzerland, Google requires a certified CMP integrated with the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework. When advertising is enabled, its consent service provides the applicable choices. Declining optional categories does not prevent core typing practice.

5. Fonts and external requests

The website uses system fonts available on your device and does not request Google Fonts files or styles. Analytics and advertising integrations, when configured, remain subject to their separate consent controls.

6. Managing choices

Use Cookie Preferences to save individual choices, Accept All optional categories, or Reject Non-Essential. You can change or withdraw choices at any time using the footer link. Changes apply on the next page load. A version change or expiry requires a fresh choice.

Rejecting optional practice history removes matching browser summaries. It does not remove account records or data already sent to providers. Browser settings can clear cookies and site data. Blocking necessary cookies can prevent login and request submission.

7. Necessary contact-form session and abuse protection

Opening the contact form creates a necessary session token for a requested submission and duplicate prevention. A receipt reference is stored in the same session after successful submission. The CSRF cookie protects form requests. These are not analytics or advertising consent.

Server-side abuse counters use keyed digests of a connection address and supplied email. They are shared between workers and do not trust arbitrary forwarded address headers. No third-party CAPTCHA or marketing script is loaded by the contact form.

8. Google advertising and your choices

KeyTute supports Google AdSense on selected public content pages. Advertising remains disabled until the publisher account, approved domain and separate advertising consent integration are configured. Active typing sessions, game play windows, results, account pages, contact forms and policy pages do not load this advertising integration.

When advertising is enabled, Google and its advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve and measure ads. Advertising cookies can allow Google and its partners to show ads based on visits to this and other websites. Where personalized ads are offered, you can manage personalization through Google My Ad Center and manage or withdraw website advertising consent through the advertising consent service.

Google advertising information: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads. Google privacy information: https://policies.google.com/privacy. Personalization choices: https://myadcenter.google.com/. Third-party advertising choices: https://www.aboutads.info/choices/. Actual advertising providers and storage details will be published before ads are enabled.
