Privacy Policy

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) grants you specific rights regarding your personal information.

Your CCPA Rights

• Right to Know: You may request disclosure of the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the sources of that information, the business purpose for collecting it, and the third parties with whom we share it.
• Right to Delete: You may request that we delete personal information we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions permitted by law.
• Right to Opt-Out of Sale: You have the right to opt out of the sale of your personal information. TypeThrive does not sell personal information to third parties.
• Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. We will not deny you services, charge different prices, or provide a lesser quality of service.
• Right to Correct: You may request correction of inaccurate personal information that we maintain about you.

To exercise your CCPA rights, submit a verifiable consumer request by emailing support@typethrive.com with the subject line "CCPA Privacy Request." We will confirm receipt within 10 business days and respond substantively within 45 days.

Categories of personal information collected in the past 12 months include: identifiers (name, email address), commercial information (subscription and purchase history), internet or electronic network activity (pages visited, features used, typing session data), and inferences drawn from this information to build a profile of your learning preferences.

If you are located in the European Union or European Economic Area, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) provides you with enhanced rights and protections regarding your personal data.

Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data on the following legal bases: performance of a contract with you (to provide the TypeThrive service you signed up for), your explicit consent (for marketing emails and non-essential analytics), our legitimate interests (improving the platform, preventing fraud, and ensuring security), and compliance with legal obligations.

Your GDPR Rights

• Right of Access (Art. 15): You may request a copy of all personal data we hold about you, along with information about how we process it.
• Right to Rectification (Art. 16): You may request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data without undue delay.
• Right to Erasure (Art. 17): You may request deletion of your personal data — the "right to be forgotten" — where there is no overriding legitimate reason for continued processing.
• Right to Restriction (Art. 18): You may request that we restrict processing of your personal data under certain circumstances, such as while we verify the accuracy of data you have contested.
• Right to Portability (Art. 20): You may request that we provide your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format for transfer to another controller.
• Right to Object (Art. 21): You may object at any time to processing of your personal data where we rely on legitimate interests as the legal basis, including for direct marketing purposes.
• Rights re: Automated Decisions (Art. 22): You have the right not to be subject to decisions made solely by automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects on you.

To exercise any GDPR right, email support@typethrive.com. We will acknowledge your request within 72 hours and respond substantively within 30 days, extendable by two additional months for complex requests. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection supervisory authority.

Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, such transfers are governed by Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission, ensuring your data receives equivalent protection. TypeThrive's data controller contact is support@typethrive.com.

Categories of Tracking Technologies We Use

How to Manage Your Preferences

You may control tracking technologies through your browser settings (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge all provide cookie management controls). You may also use browser extensions such as Privacy Badger or uBlock Origin. Note that disabling strictly necessary technologies will impair your ability to log in and use TypeThrive.

For EU and EEA residents: You have the right to withdraw consent to non-essential tracking at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent given before withdrawal. Contact support@typethrive.com to update your consent record. We retain consent records for 3 years in compliance with GDPR Article 7(1).
