Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

TypeAds ("we", "us", "our") operates the touch-typing reward platform at typeads.fairgigs.app. This Privacy Policy details how we collect, store, use, and share your personal information. We take your privacy seriously and aim to be transparent about what data is collected, particularly regarding the security measures we use to prevent bot abuse.

2. Information We Collect

To provide the typing engine, verify typing completions, and fulfill gift card rewards, we collect the following categories of data:

• Account Credentials: If you sign up via email and password, we store your email address and a securely hashed password. If you authenticate via Google OAuth, we receive and store your email address, name, and profile picture.
• Typing Session Data: We record your speed in Words Per Minute (WPM), typing accuracy percentage, session duration, and completed campaigns to calculate your points rewards and update your stats.
• Anti-Fraud & Anti-Bot Telemetry: To identify automated scripts, we record keystroke dynamics (specifically, the milliseconds elapsed between individual keypress events). We also log your IP address, browser user-agent, operating system, and unique device fingerprint variables.
• Wallet & Redemption Records: We log all reward transactions, your current points balance, and historical gift card redemption details (including the code of the gift card delivered to you).
• Advertiser Inquiries: If you contact us via our advertiser form, we collect your name, brand/organization, ad campaign brief, and budget.

3. How We Use Your Information

We process your data for the following legitimate business purposes:

• To initialize your typing sessions, calculate accuracy and WPM, and track point accumulation.
• To allow administrators to manually audit, approve, and fulfill gift card redemptions.
• To analyze keystroke timings and verify that ad copy completions are performed by real humans rather than bots or macros.
• To send critical system emails, such as account confirmation, password reset links, and gift card redemption notifications.

4. Data Sharing & Third-Party Disclosure

We hold a strict policy regarding the sharing and selling of user information.

No Sale of Personal Information: We do not sell, rent, trade, or share your email address or personal identity details with third-party advertisers or brands.

Advertiser Reporting: Advertisers pay us for human eyes on their ad copy. We share campaign-level analytics with them (e.g., "Your ad campaign received 500 completions, with an average typing speed of 85 WPM and 97% accuracy"). This reporting is entirely aggregated and contains **no** usernames, emails, or personal identifiers.

Service Providers: We share data with third-party providers who host and support our infrastructure (such as Supabase for database storage, authentication, and hosting, and email transaction services like Resend or Nodemailer). These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data.

5. Data Security & Retention

We use Supabase as our backend and authentication system, which implements standard security measures to protect your credentials. We retain your account, typing history, and transaction data for as long as your account remains active. If you wish to delete your account, you can contact us to request the erasure of your personal data.

6. Your Data, Your Choice

Here is exactly what you can do regarding your data on TypeAds:

• Request Your Data: You can ask us what personal data we have stored about you. We will respond via email with a summary.
• Request Deletion: You can ask us to permanently delete your account and all associated data (typing history, points, redemption records). Once deleted, this action cannot be undone.
• Correct Your Information: If any of your account details (email, username, display name) are incorrect, you can update them from your profile or contact us.

To make any of these requests, use the contact form on our main page. We will process your request and respond to your email.
