Privacy Policy

FastCPSTest (“we”, “us”, or “our”) operates the website fastcpstest.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our Site. By using our Site, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Information We Collect

We collect minimal information necessary to operate our Site and serve advertising. The types of information we may collect include:

• Local browser data: Your CPS test scores, best scores, attempt history, theme preference, and cookie consent choice are stored locally in your browser using localStorage. This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
• Usage data: We may collect aggregate, non-identifying information about how visitors use our Site, such as page views, time on site, and referring URLs. This data is used to improve our Site and is not linked to your identity.
• Advertising data: If you accept cookies, our advertising partner Google AdSense may collect information about your visit to serve relevant ads. See the Advertising section below for details.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. We use cookies for the following purposes:

• Essential: We use localStorage (not cookies) for storing your test scores, theme preference, and cookie consent. These are essential for the Site to function and are not transmitted to any server.
• Advertising: If you consent, Google AdSense may set cookies to serve personalized ads based on your interests and browsing behavior. You can opt out of personalized advertising at any time.
• Analytics: We may use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our Site, which pages are most popular, and how traffic arrives.

When you first visit our Site, a cookie consent banner appears asking you to accept or reject advertising cookies. If you reject, no advertising cookies are set. You can change your choice at any time by clearing your browser storage and revisiting the Site. For more details, see our Cookie Policy.

Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our Site. Google AdSense uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our Site and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our Site and other sites on the Internet.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings page at ads.google.com/settings. You can also opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info/choices.

If you reject cookies on our Site, Google AdSense scripts are not loaded, and no advertising cookies are set. You will still see placeholder ad spaces, but no personalized or non-personalized ads will be served through Google AdSense.

Third-Party Advertising Vendors

Google AdSense may use third-party advertising vendors who are members of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) or the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA). These vendors may use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to our Site and other websites. You can opt out of these vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting the NAI opt-out page at networkadvertising.org/choices or the DAA opt-out page at aboutads.info/choices.

Data We Do Not Collect

We do not collect or store the following information:

• Your name, email address, or contact information (unless you voluntarily submit it through our contact form).
• Your CPS test scores or attempt history (these are stored only in your browser's local storage).
• Your IP address is not collected by us directly, though our advertising partner and analytics provider may collect it as part of their standard operations.
• Account information — we do not have user accounts and do not require registration.

Contact Form

If you use our contact form, we collect the name, optional reply-to email address, and message you provide. This information is used solely to respond to your message and is not used for marketing or shared with third parties. If you provide an email address, we may use it to reply to your message and nothing more.

GDPR Compliance

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you have certain rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):

• Right to access: You may request information about the personal data we hold about you.
• Right to rectification: You may request correction of inaccurate personal data.
• Right to erasure: You may request deletion of your personal data.
• Right to restrict processing: You may request that we limit the processing of your data.
• Right to data portability: You may request a copy of your data in a machine-readable format.
• Right to object: You may object to our processing of your data.
• Right to withdraw consent: You may withdraw your consent to cookie usage at any time.

Since we do not collect personal data on our servers (test scores are stored in your browser), most of these rights are exercised by clearing your browser's local storage. For any requests related to contact form submissions or advertising data, please contact us through our contact page.

We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 16. If you believe we have collected personal data from a child under 16, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

CCPA Compliance

If you are a resident of California, you have certain rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA):

• Right to know: You may request disclosure of the categories and specific pieces of personal information we collect.
• Right to delete: You may request deletion of your personal information.
• Right to opt out: You may opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. We do not sell personal information.
• Right to non-discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising your CCPA rights.

To exercise your CCPA rights, contact us through our contact page. Since we do not maintain user accounts, you can also clear your browser's local storage to remove all locally stored test data.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your data. Since we do not collect or store personal data on our servers (beyond contact form submissions), the risk of data breach is minimal. Our Site uses HTTPS encryption for all data in transit. Local storage data on your device is protected by your browser's security model.

Children's Privacy

Our Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete such information.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the “Last updated” date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.
