This Privacy Policy describes how TypeAway ("we", "the game") handles information when you play at this website. TypeAway is a browser-based typing game and does not require an account.
TypeAway does not ask for your name, email, or any personal account information. Your game preferences (such as sound on/off and whether you've seen the tutorial) are stored only in your own browser using localStorage and never leave your device.
This site may display advertising served by third-party partners, including Google AdSense. These partners may use cookies or similar technologies 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. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. For more information, see how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the game is used — which screens people reach, how many finish a first flight, and whether players come back. It sets a first-party cookie holding a random identifier; it is not linked to your name or to any account, because the game has no accounts.
We also use Microsoft Clarity, which records anonymised session replays and heatmaps of the interface so we can see where the game is confusing. Replays capture interface interactions only. The world map is drawn on a canvas and cannot be captured at all, and text you type is treated as game input rather than personal data.
If you are in the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, both are switched off by default and no analytics cookies are set unless you opt in. You can also block them with any ad blocker or your browser's tracking protection; the game is fully playable either way.
If you use the in-game feedback form, we store what you wrote along with the screen you were on, the build number, and your in-game callsign, so a report can be reproduced. Your country is recorded at the country level only. We do not store your IP address. Please do not include personal details you would rather not share — if you want a reply, leave a contact address in the message itself.
Web fonts and map data are served from this site's own domain, not from a third-party CDN, so no extra provider receives your IP address for those.
TypeAway is family-friendly and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13.
Where required by law, a consent banner will ask for your preferences before personalized ads are shown. You can clear your stored preferences at any time by clearing your browser's site data for this domain.
