Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 24, 2026

KeyboardAnalyzer (keyboardanalyzer.com) is a free set of browser-based tools for testing keyboards and mice: a keyboard tester, typing speed test, ghosting test, click speed (CPS) tests, a scroll test and keyboard performance checks. This policy explains what information is involved when you use the site, who processes it, and the choices you have. It is written to describe how the site actually works today, not a generic template.

The short version

• There are no accounts. You never sign up or log in, and we do not ask for your name, email address or any other personal details to use the tools.
• Your keystrokes, mouse clicks and scroll events are processed only inside your browser. They are not sent to us or to anyone else.
• The home page keyboard tester can save your test progress in your own browser (localStorage) so a refresh does not wipe it. The Reset button clears it.
• The site is funded by ads served by Google AdSense, and we use Google Analytics to count visits. Both are run by Google and use cookies or similar technologies. You can opt out as described below.
• The site is hosted on Cloudflare, which processes standard connection data (such as IP address) to deliver and protect the site.

1. Information we do not collect

KeyboardAnalyzer has no user accounts, no login, no payments and no subscriptions. We do not collect your name, postal address, phone number, payment details or email address through the site. We do not build a profile of you, and we do not sell personal information.

2. Keystrokes, clicks and test results

The testers work by listening to standard browser events such as keydown, keyup, mousedown and wheel while the page is open. Those events are handled by JavaScript running on your own device to light up keys, count clicks, measure intervals and calculate results such as words per minute or clicks per second.

• We do not record, log or upload what you type or click. The typing test compares your input with the sample text locally and discards it when you leave or restart.
• Test results are shown on screen only. If you use a “copy result” button, the text goes to your own clipboard; nothing is sent to us.
• Because these events stay in your browser, we cannot see or recover your results.

3. Information stored in your browser

Some settings are saved in your browser’s local storage so the site remembers them on your device. This data never leaves your browser unless you move it yourself.

• Keyboard test progress (home page): which keys and mouse buttons you have already tested, the selected layout, and whether the “all keys tested” message has been shown. Press Reset on the tester to clear it at any time.
• Theme preference: whether you chose the light, dark or system theme.

You can also remove this data by clearing site data for keyboardanalyzer.com in your browser settings.

4. Advertising (Google AdSense)

KeyboardAnalyzer is free because it shows ads served by Google AdSense. When a page with ads loads, your browser connects to Google, and Google and its partners may use cookies, device identifiers and similar technologies to serve ads, limit how often you see the same ad, measure ad performance and detect fraud.

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
• Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info (US) or www.youronlinechoices.eu (EU).
• If you opt out, you will still see ads, but they will not be personalized based on your browsing.

Learn more in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and How Google uses cookies in advertising.

If you visit from a region where the law requires your consent for personalized ads or cookies (for example the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland), ads are shown according to the consent choices presented to you, and you can change your choice at any time.

5. Visit statistics (Google Analytics)

We use Google Analytics to understand aggregate usage, such as how many people visit, which tools and languages are used most, and which pages load slowly. Google Analytics sets first-party cookies (for example _ga) and receives information such as pages viewed, approximate location derived from your IP address, browser and device type, and referring site. We use these reports only in aggregate to improve the tools; we cannot identify you from them. Your keystrokes and test results are not sent to Google Analytics.

You can block Google Analytics with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, with your browser’s tracking protection, or by blocking cookies for this site. See Google’s Privacy Policy for how Google handles this data.

6. Hosting and server logs (Cloudflare)

The site is a static website hosted on Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare receives technical information needed to deliver pages and protect the site from abuse, such as your IP address, browser user agent, the page requested and the time of the request. Cloudflare may set strictly necessary security cookies. This processing is governed by Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy.

7. When you email us

If you write to [email protected], we receive your email address and whatever you include in the message. We use it only to reply to you and to improve the tools, and we do not add you to any mailing list. You can ask us to delete the correspondence at any time.

8. Cookies summary

• Advertising cookies (Google AdSense and its partners): serving, limiting and measuring ads; personalization where allowed.
• Analytics cookies (Google Analytics): counting visits and measuring usage in aggregate.
• Security cookies (Cloudflare): protecting the site from abusive traffic.
• Local storage (this site): test progress and theme preference, kept only on your device.

Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. The testers keep working without cookies; blocking local storage only means your test progress will not survive a page refresh.

9. Children

The site is a general-audience tool and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information by email, contact us and we will delete it.

10. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal information, or to object to certain processing. Since we do not keep accounts or test data, most requests concern emails you have sent us, which we will handle promptly. For data processed by Google or Cloudflare, you can also use the controls those companies provide through the links above.

11. Changes to this policy

If the way the site handles data changes, for example if we add a new analytics or advertising provider, we will update this page and the effective date at the top.
