Emanuel Schmacher e.U. is the controller within the meaning of the GDPR and is referred to in this statement as "the provider". Full contact details can be found in the Legal Notice.
The following overview summarizes the types of data processed and the purposes of their processing:
Below you will find an overview of the legal bases of the GDPR on the basis of which the provider processes personal data:
| Legal basis | Description |
|---|---|
| Consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR) | The data subject has given their consent. |
| Contract fulfillment (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b GDPR) | Necessary for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures. |
| Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR) | Processing is necessary for the purposes of legitimate interests. |
The provider shall take appropriate technical and organisational measures in accordance with the legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, in order to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.
| Data type | Purpose | Storage period |
|---|---|---|
| Email Address | Account creation, login, communication | Until account deletion |
| Username/display name | Identification in the system, leaderboards | Until account deletion |
| Password (hashed) | Authentication | Until account deletion |
| Learning progress | Storage of training progress | Until account deletion |
| Game data (points, coins) | Gamification system | Until account deletion |
| IP address | Security, abuse prevention | 7 days (server logs) |
| Friendship data | Social networking, friends list | Until removal of friendship or account deletion |
| Classroom membership | Teacher-student assignment | Until leaving the classroom or account deletion |
| Teacher assignment | Assignment of teacher-created accounts to the creating teacher | Until account deletion |
| Daily activity and streak | Gamification, progress tracking | Until account deletion |
| Tournament participation | Competition results | Until account deletion |
| Teacher request | Verification and account activation | 90 days after processing |
| Time of last activity | Account management, support, detection of inactive accounts | Until account deletion |
| Browser time zone | Account management and support (e.g. displaying times in your local time) | Until account deletion |
| Activity log (pages viewed) | Product improvement: Analysis at which point new users abandon the connection | 90 days, then automatic deletion |
In order to understand where new users have difficulties (for example: why is the training not started after registration?), the provider logs which pages are accessed within TYPR (page path and time) on the server side for self-registered accounts in the first 30 days after registration. In addition, the time of the last activity and the time zone transmitted by your browser are stored.
The legal basis is the legitimate interest of the provider in the improvement and further development of the service (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR). You can object to this processing at any time with effect for the future (Art. 21 GDPR) by contacting the provider at support@typr.fun — the use of TYPR will not be affected.
Users can create a user account. During registration, the required mandatory information is communicated to users and processed for the purpose of providing the user account based on contractual obligation.
The processed data includes: display name, email address, password (stored encrypted), avatar selection and learning progress.
Teachers can create student accounts without an email address (see Section 11). In this case, a username and random password are generated. Login is exclusively via username and password.

These cookies are required for the operation of the website:
In addition to cookies, the website uses local browser storage (localStorage) to store your settings such as color mode, theme, font and volume. This data remains exclusively in your browser and is not transmitted to the provider's server.
Legal basis: Legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR). The cookies and storage technologies used are necessary for the basic functions of the website or are used to store your selected settings.
The website is hosted on servers in the European Union. With each access, server log files are automatically created, which contain the following data:
This data is stored for security reasons for a maximum of 7 days and then automatically deleted.
For the processing of payments for pro subscriptions, the provider uses the payment service provider Mollie B.V.

All JavaScript libraries, fonts and other resources are provided locally by the provider's own servers. No external content delivery networks (CDN) such as Cloudflare, jsDelivr or Google Fonts are integrated.
Likewise, fonts (Nunito, Fredoka One, JetBrains Mono) are hosted locally. No requests are sent to Google Fonts or other external font services. This means that no personal data (e.g. IP addresses) is transmitted to third parties.
In accordance with the transparency obligations of the EU Artificial Intelligence Regulation (EU AI Act, Regulation (EU) 2024/1689), the provider informs about the use of the following AI-supported services:
The Google Cloud Translation API is used for the automatic translation of the user interface into 41 languages. Only predefined text elements of the user interface (menus, buttons, information texts) are translated.
Important: No personal data, no user input and no training content will be transmitted to Google. The translation is done once during development and is then saved locally. No requests are sent to Google during ongoing operation.
The learning platform itself does not use artificial intelligence for:
All exercise texts are editorial created. The performance measurement (strokes per minute, accuracy) is based on deterministic calculations without AI components.
Typr offers social features that allow users to connect with other users.
Users can send friend requests to other users and accept or decline them. The following data is processed as part of the friends list feature:
Users can challenge friends to typing duels. Game results (WPM/keystrokes per minute, accuracy) are shared with the duel partner. Participation in duels is voluntary.
When participating in tournaments, display name, avatar and game results are shown to all tournament participants.
Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR). The use of social functions is voluntary. Friendships can be removed at any time and requests can be rejected.
Typr offers a classroom feature that allows teachers to track their students' learning progress.
When student accounts are created by the teacher, the following data is processed:
No email address is collected for these accounts. Login is exclusively via username and password.
Students in the same classroom do not have access to other students' data. Only the teacher can view the performance data of all students in the classroom. There is no mutual visibility of student data within the classroom.
Teachers can export class data as a CSV file. The export contains only display names and performance data (WPM/keystrokes per minute, accuracy, level). No personal contact data (email addresses, dates of birth) is exported.
Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR). Joining a classroom is voluntary by entering the invitation code. For accounts created by the teacher, the teacher is responsible for obtaining any necessary consents. Students can leave the classroom at any time.
Registered users can receive optional email notifications on the following topics:
All email notifications are enabled by default and can be individually disabled at any time in the account settings.
Legal basis: Legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR) for service-related notifications. The user can object at any time.
Teachers can create a user account directly through the registration form on the “For Teachers” page. At the same time, a request to activate teacher status is submitted, which is manually reviewed.
During registration, a user account with “Student” status is created. A confirmation email is sent to verify the email address. The school and role information is used for manual review and activation of teacher status by the operator.
Account data is stored permanently as long as the user account exists. Request data (school, role, message) is stored until processing and deleted no later than 90 days after activation or rejection.
Legal basis: Fulfillment of the contract (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR) for account creation; Consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR) for the request for teacher activation.
