1. Overview
This Privacy Policy explains what information Smooth Learning ("we", "us", smoothlearning.fun) collects when you visit, how it is used, and the choices you have. We collect the minimum needed to run a free educational website.
2. Information We Collect
- Automatically collected: standard log data your browser sends — IP address (anonymized where possible), browser type, pages visited and timestamps. Used only for aggregate statistics and security.
- Locally stored: your typing game personal bests are saved in your own browser's localStorage. This never leaves your device and can be cleared anytime via browser settings.
- We do not require accounts. We do not ask for names, emails or payment details to use any course or game.
3. Cookies & Advertising (Google AdSense)
We display ads served by Google AdSense to keep all content free:
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits — this is called personalized advertising.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising at google.com/settings/ads, or opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info/choices.
- You can also disable cookies in your browser; the site remains fully usable (ads simply become non-personalized).
4. Analytics
If privacy-friendly aggregate analytics are enabled, they count page views and referrers in summary form only — no individual profiling, no cross-site tracking, no sale of data. Ever.
5. Children's Privacy
Content is suitable for general audiences including supervised younger learners (the typing arena is classroom-friendly). The site is not directed at children under 13 and we knowingly collect no personal information from them.
6. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent or trade visitor data. The only external processors are our hosting provider (Netlify) and Google AdSense, each operating under their own published policies.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction (GDPR, CCPA and similar), you may request details about data processing or deletion of anything attributable to you. Since we hold no personal profiles, most requests resolve instantly — contact us anyway at privacy@smoothlearning.fun.
8. Changes To This Policy
Material changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Continued use after changes means acceptance of the revised policy.
