Typing the Word is a Scripture typing practice website. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when using the site.
Information We Collect
When you use Typing the Word, we may collect account information provided through sign-in providers, such as your name, email address, and profile image. We also store typing activity, including Bible version, book, passage reference, typing mode, accuracy, WPM, mistakes, time spent, completion date, saved progress, writing streaks, and Bible completion milestones.
If you use the site as a guest, your typing session may run in the browser without being connected to a permanent account record.
How We Use Information
We use your information to save Scripture typing progress, show typing records and your Journey, continue from your next session, recognize completion milestones, improve the usability of the site, and protect the service from misuse.
We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your typing records to build a separate advertising profile.
Journey and Public Completions
Your personal Bible progress and writing streak are shown to you when you are signed in. If you complete the Whole Bible, Old Testament, or New Testament, your display name and first completion date may appear publicly in Completed Journeys, including to visitors who are not signed in.
Sharing
When you choose a Share button, the site prepares text containing the Bible version, progress or streak information, and a Journey link. Your browser or device may open its sharing interface, or the text may be copied to your clipboard. If you choose an external app or service, its own privacy policy applies to the information you share.
Sign-In Providers
Typing the Word may offer sign-in through providers such as Google or Apple. When you sign in, the provider may share basic account details with us so we can create or recognize your account. Your use of those providers is also subject to their own privacy policies.
Cookies and Local Storage
We may use cookies or similar browser storage to keep you signed in, remember session state, and support basic site functionality. These technologies help the site work reliably when you move between Books, typing sessions, Journey, and Records.
Advertising
Typing the Word may display advertising, including Google AdSense or similar ad services. Advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to measure ad performance and show ads. You can manage cookie and ad personalization settings through your browser or the advertising provider's settings.
Data Retention
We keep account and typing progress information for as long as it is needed to provide the service. If you ask us to delete your account or saved records, we will take reasonable steps to remove the information associated with your account, unless we need to keep limited information for security, legal, or operational reasons.
Your Choices
You may choose not to sign in and use available guest features. If you sign in, you can sign out at any time. You may also request access, correction, or deletion of your account information by contacting us.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect saved account and typing information. No online service can guarantee perfect security, but we aim to keep the amount of personal information we collect limited and useful.
Children's Privacy
Typing the Word is intended for a general audience. If you believe a child has provided personal information without appropriate permission, please contact us so we can review and remove it where appropriate.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as the site changes. When we make meaningful changes, we will update the date at the top of this page.
