When you access our Site, our servers and third-party service providers automatically collect certain technical data. This information does not reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact information) but may include device and usage information, such as:
- Device Information: We collect data about the device you use to access our Site, including hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information.

2.2. Information Provided Voluntarily
We only collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us in specific circumstances:

We use this information strictly to respond to your inquiry, provide technical support, or address your feedback.
2.3. Data Processed During Tool Usage
When you use our specific tools, data is processed in the following manner:
- Typing Speed Test & Practice Lessons: Your typing metrics (Words Per Minute, Accuracy, Time, Errors) are calculated locally in your browser. We do not store your typing history or test results on our servers.
- Grammar Checker: When you use our Grammar Checker, the text you input is transmitted securely via API to LanguageTool (our third-party grammar processing partner) solely for the purpose of analyzing the text for grammatical and spelling errors. The text is processed in real-time and is not stored by us. Please refer to Section 5 for more details on third-party APIs.
