TypingDNA Privacy Policy
TypingDNA SRL1 and TypingDNA Inc.2 (referred to collectively and individually as “TypingDNA”,
“we” or “us”) realize that our platform, https://www.typingdna.com/
(the “Website”) and any
related services (the “Services”) we offer, including mobile applications, can only work if we build
a
relationship of trust with our users.
We control the purpose for which, and the manner in which, Personal Information (as defined
below) about individuals accessing the Website, trying or using our Services and/or respectively
being targeted by us for marketing purposes in relation to our provision of the Services is
processed. We are therefore the data controller under applicable data privacy laws.
Pursuant to Art. 26 of the General Data Protection Regulation3 (“GDPR”), TypingDNA SRL and
TypingDNA Inc. are joint controllers with respect to Personal Information collected via the Website
or otherwise processed by us in relation to the Website and/or our Services. Our contact details are
set out at the end of this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”).
This Privacy Policy outlines the categories of Personal Information the Website collects from you,
that you provide to us, or that you authorize to be provided to us or that we collect from third party
resources for marketing or other legitimate purposes in relation to our Services, the purposes for
which your Personal Information might be used and the safeguards we put in place in the course of
our relationship with you to protect your Personal Information.
By continuing to use our Website and/or our Services, you expressly consent to our processing of
your Personal Information (as defined below) as described in this Privacy Policy, and to being
bound by the provisions hereof.
Who we are and the Services we provide
We are a technology company developing passive authentication and typing biometrics API
(Application Programming Interfaces). Our mission is to improve security without compromising
user experience. Our technology is the most available online biometric technology – it works with
any keyboard, on any device and does not need more than one previous sample to start working.
We provide typing biometrics authentication as a service, an API that anyone can use for 2 Factor
Authentication (2FA) and fraud prevention purposes
TypingDNA provides a number of products and Services, as follows:
-
Typing biometrics authentication API based on keystroke dynamics - our typing biometrics
authentication API (also known as keystroke dynamics) is suitable for securing login, enforcing reset
passwords, and online biometric authentication. This solution assists in:
- identifying fraudsters – it recognizes the user’s true identity on the spot;
- seamless authentication - typing biometrics enables frictionless keystroke authentication in the
background of any typed text;
- text characteristics - TypingDNA supports repetitive text (e.g. login authentication
credentials) and any text (e.g. writing an email) recognition, so it can be used in any typing
scenario.
- Multi-factor authentication: a frictionless authentication solution with typing biometrics, SMS
or email-based OTP;
- TypingDNA Authenticator: we use verification codes in your browser, secured by the way you type.
Personal Information
So we are clear about the terminology we are using, “personal data" means any information
describing or relating to an identified or identifiable individual (where an identifiable individual is
an individual who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier
such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more
factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of
that individual).
When we use the phrase “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we mean collectively the
following categories of personal data that may be requested by us and provided by you; in various
forms on our Website (such as demo forms, registration forms, etc.), you may be asked to enter
Personal Information such as: first/last name, password, email address, phone number, Skype ID,
Internet Protocol (IP) address, location data, country, gender, date of birth, nationality, state or
province, age, company name, company website, typing biometrics, device type, device fingerprint,
cursor movements, pointing devices movements (e.g. mouse, touchpad, touchscreen, trackpad,
others), payment details (e.g. bank account number, credit card number, bank).
We may process your Personal Information under this Privacy Policy:
- if you apply for a Demo version of our Services on the Website;
- if you register an account on the Website;
- if you enter into any contract or other arrangement (whether via the Website or otherwise) for
the use (including testing and/or development) of our Services;
- if you are targeted by us for communication of marketing materials about us, the Website
and/or our Services (also referred to hereinafter as a “Prospect”): we collect and process
such
limited Personal Information about you from public resources (such as LinkedIn, ZoomInfo,
Hunter) including your name/surname, email address, telephone number, company-, title/position,
profession, the way you may potentially use our solution, information about other IAM solutions
that you may use, professional interests, to allow us to assess a potential interest in our Services
and to contact you for marketing purposes.
When you register on our Website to use our Services, or even a Demo version thereof, you will
need to provide personal information about yourself during the account creation/demo session –
this Personal Information includes: name/surname, your organization/company details (name and
website), age, job title/position, email address, phone number, line of work/industry and your
typing biometric. We can also collect and further process: your typing pattern (typing biometrics),
Internet Protocol (IP) address, location data, device type, device fingerprint, cursor movements,
pointing devices movements (e.g. mouse, touchpad, touchscreen, trackpad, others).
We collect such Personal Information from you when you register on our Website, subscribe to a
newsletter, try a demo, respond to a survey, fill out a form or enter information on our Website, or
when you provide us with feedback on our products or Services. If you are a Prospect, we collect
and process such further Personal Information about you (as stated above) from public sources as
mentioned above.
To help keep our databases current and to provide you the most relevant content and experiences,
we may combine information provided by you with information from other sources, in accordance
with applicable law. For example, from these sources, we may learn about the size, industry, and
other information about the company you work for.
Also, we use automated systems to analyse your content using techniques such as machine learning
in order to improve our Services and the Websites. This analysis may occur as the content is sent or
received using an online feature of the Website or any of our Services or apps, or when the content
is stored on our servers.
Please note that registered clients can use our Services to collect typing biometrics from their own
users.
It is up to the client to decide where and how to store the typing biometrics of its users (and to
apply adequate data privacy and security measures to ensure that such data is maintained
confidential and secure from unauthorized disclosure or modification). If the client stores the
typing biometrics of its own users, it is entirely that client’s responsibility to handle such sensitive
information with care and comply with the applicable data privacy laws, in particular regarding the
end user’s consent to the collection, processing and usage of such information by the client and (in
certain cases) by TypingDNA. If we are required to store the typing biometrics of our clients’ end
users, such data is anonymized at our level. We do not associate any biometric data with any
Personal Information from any end-user.
When we refer to “you” in this Privacy Policy, such reference is limited strictly to individuals who
have provided Personal Information directly to us via our Website and/or otherwise through the
use of the Services, or to Prospects whom we identify and target for marketing-related
communications.
Anonymous and Aggregate Information
When we use the phrase “Anonymous Information” in this Privacy Policy, we mean information
rendered anonymous in such a way that it cannot or can no longer be used to personally identify an
individual.
Like many companies, we monitor the use of the Website by collecting aggregate information. No
personally identifiable data is collected in this process. Typically, we collect information about the
number of visitors to the Website and the originating domain name of the visitor's Internet Service
Provider. Also, we may collect non-personal information about your use of the Website and/or the
Services such as, IP address, log files, user activity, time stamps, etc. Finally, we may also collect
technical information transmitted by your device, including certain software and hardware
information (e.g. the type of browser and operating system your device uses, language preferences,
access time and the domain name of the website from which you linked to Website etc.).
This information is typically used to improve the usability, performance and effectiveness of the
Platform.
Important note: For the avoidance of doubt, any aggregate, non-personal or technical information
collected, which is or may be connected or linked to the identities of the relevant users, shall be
deemed
as ‘personal data’ (as such term is defined in the applicable data privacy laws) as long as such
connection or linkage exists or may be made using all the means reasonably likely to be used. In such
situations, the provisions in this Privacy Policy regarding personal data shall apply mutatis mutandis
to the aggregate, non-personal or technical data mentioned herein. For clarity purposes, as an
example, if we have suf icient information to link an IP address to a particular individual user (e.g.,
through login details, cookies, or any other information or technology) then that IP address is personal
data, and is subject to the full protections of data protection law and this Privacy Policy.
Websites and apps covered by this Privacy Policy
Domains and subdomains that contain typingdna.com are our websites and the TypingDNA
Authenticator is one of our applications that is also subject to this Privacy Policy.

If you are a US resident, please check the Section below dedicated to
Participation in the EU-US Privacy Shield Mechanism which sets out the various recourse
mechanisms available to you in this sense. TypingDNA has chosen the International Centre for
Dispute Resolution, the international division of the American Arbitration Association
(ICDR-AAASM) disputes.
Your exercise of these rights is subject to certain exemptions to safeguard the public interest (e.g.
the prevention or detection of crime), our interests (e.g. the maintenance of legal privilege) or
rights and freedoms of others, as provided by the GDPR and the EU-US Privacy Shield principles
(please see our dedicated Section on this below).
While we will make good faith efforts to provide you with access to your Personal Information, we
may deny or limited access to such Personal Information where: this would interfere with the
execution or enforcement of the law or with private causes of action (including the prevention,
investigation or detection of offences or the right to a fair trial); the legitimate rights and interest of
others would be violated through such disclosure; this would prejudice the confidentiality
necessary in monitoring, inspection or regulatory functions connected with sound management, or
in future or ongoing negotiations involving us. We will of course endeavour to offer you an
adequate explanation of the necessity, and reason for, restricting access in the circumstances
mentioned above.
If you exercise any of these rights, we will check your entitlement and respond without undue
delay, but not later than within a month. In complex cases or at times of receiving numerous
requests, this period may be extended by two further months of which we will inform you.
To review or update your Personal Information including user information to ensure it is accurate,
please write to us at dataprivacy@typingdna.com informing us
of any changes that may need to be
made in respect of your Personal Information and we will update such information on your behalf
and in our systems.
If you wish to delete your TypingDNA account, please write to us at
dataprivacy@typingdna.com requesting that your account be
deleted and we will proceed with this
deletion on your behalf and in our systems.
Please note that once you delete your account you will no longer be able to enjoy the full
functionality of the Website and/or (part or all) of the Services we provide. Certain information is
necessary in order for us to provide the Website; therefore, if you delete such necessary
information you will not be able to use the Website and/or the Services.
Please remember, however, if we have already disclosed some of this information to third parties,
we cannot access that information any longer and cannot force the deletion or modification of any
such information by the parties to whom we have made those disclosures. We will of course comply
with any legal obligation we may have to notify them of your request.
Please note that even though you may request the deletion of your Personal Information by us, we
may be required (by law or otherwise, such as to prevent fraud, resolve disputes, or troubleshoot
problems) to keep this information and not delete it, or to keep this information for a certain time,
in which case we will comply with your account deletion only after we have fulfilled such
requirements. When you delete your account, Personal Information will be deleted from the active
database, but (limited) Personal Information may remain in our archives where legally permitted.
If you have unsubscribed from receiving marketing information from us, we will continue to
maintain your Personal Data for any other purpose for which we still have legal grounds for
processing such Personal Data (such as the performance of a contract, for the purposes of
complying with a legal obligation or when the processing is necessary for the purpose of a
legitimate interest of us). In certain cases, if no other legal grounds exist, we will maintain limited
Personal Data (such as your email address) about you on record so as to be able to ensure for the
future that such marketing communications are no longer sent to you.
Please note that any processing of your Personal Data prior to the deletion of your account with us,
or your request that we no longer contact you for direct marketing purposes will remain valid
under the legal grounds then prevailing.

It cannot be ruled out that LinkedIn may link the transmitted personal data with other personal data, e.g., from an existing LinkedIn account. LinkedIn also uses data that does not identify you to improve the relevance of ads and to reach members across devices. It is not excluded that LinkedIn uses corresponding data for further purposes of its own.
The integration of the LinkedIn Insight Tag allows us to place target group-oriented ads on LinkedIn and to obtain real-time information about the professional goals and preferred content of the website visitors.
It cannot be ruled out that the data is transmitted to insecure third countries such as the U.S.
The LinkedIn Insight Tag is also used to display LinkedIn ads to people with whom we have already been in contact (“retargeting”).
If you click on a LinkedIn ad, a cookie for conversion tracking will be stored on your computer.
If you access our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we will be able to recognise that you have clicked on the ad and were thus redirected to our website. LinkedIn as the service provider will receive this information as well.
The lawful basis for the use of the LinkedIn Insight Tag is your consent in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
For further information on how your data is processed at or by LinkedIn, please visit https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.
Third Party Websites and Services
The Platform may contain links to websites hosted and operated by companies other than us
(“Third-Party Websites”) to which you can export (part of) your Personal Information on the
Website.
We do not disclose your Personal Information to these Third-Party Websites without your explicit
consent. Note that any information you disclose to Third Party Websites is no longer under our
control and no longer subject to this Privacy Policy.
You should review the privacy policy practices of any such Third-Party Website to understand how
that Third-Party Website collects and uses your Personal Information should you have decided to
disclose your Personal Information to them. We are not responsible for the content or performance
of these Third-Party Websites. We are in no way responsible or liable for the manner in which a
Third-Party Website treats any Personal Information that you choose to provide to such a
Third-Party Website and use of Third-Party Websites is strictly at your own risk.
We may use a third-party tracking service such as Google Analytics to track and analyze
Anonymous Information from users of the Platform. Such third parties may use cookies to help
track user behaviour. The use of cookies by third parties is not covered by this Privacy Policy. We
do not have access or control over these cookies.
Changes to the Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes to our information practices. If we make any
material changes, we will notify you by email (sent to the email address specified in your account)
or by means of a notice on this Website prior to the change becoming effective. We encourage you
to periodically review this page for the latest information on our privacy practices. Continued use of
our Platform following notice of such changes will indicate your acknowledgement of such changes
and agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of such changes.
Any changes to this Privacy Policy may affect our use or disclosure of Personal Information
collected prior to the changes. If you do not agree to any of the changes, you must notify us prior to
the effective date of the changes that you wish to terminate your account with us. Continued use of
our Platform following such notice of such changes shall indicate your acknowledgement of such
changes and agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of such changes.
Retention Period
We endeavour to ensure that Personal Information are kept as current as possible and that
irrelevant or excessive data are deleted or made anonymous as soon as reasonably practicable. We
retain Personal Information about you only for as long as it serves a purpose of processing
mentioned in this Privacy Policy. This does not prevent us from processing your Personal
Information for longer periods of time, to the extent such processing reasonably serves other
purposes, including for statistical analysis.
However, some Personal Information may be retained for varying time periods in order to comply
with legal and regulatory obligations and for other legitimate business reasons. We will generally
retain your Personal Information only so long as it is required for purposes for which it was
collected. Where your Personal Information is no longer required, we will ensure it is either
securely deleted or stored in a way which means it will no longer be used by the business.
Subject to the principles set out in the above paragraph, we may delete your account 5 years after
your last accessing of the Website and/or of any of our (current or future) Services, if you do not
wish an earlier deletion of Personal Information. Note: we may continue to use Your typing pattern
if we have used such typing pattern to build the algorithm, to further develop and improve the
algorithm. If we do so, we undertake to anonymise/de-personalise Your typing pattern in such a
way that it can no longer be linked to You and therefore no longer constitute Personal Information
about You.
Children
The Website and our Services are not directed to children and children are not eligible to use our
Website and/or any of our Services.
Protecting the privacy of children is very important to us. We do not collect or maintain Personal
Information from people we actually know are under 18 years of age, and no part of our Website is
designed to attract people under 18 years of age or persons under the age of legal consent in any
jurisdiction (“Legally of Age”).
Do not attempt to access the Website and/or create an account and/or apply for a demo version of
our Services if you are not Legally of Age. If we later learn that a user is not Legally of Age, we will
take steps to remove that user’s information from our databases and to prevent the user from
utilizing the Website and/or any of our Services.
If you are the parent of a legal guardian of a person that is not Legally of Age who has registered on
our Website, or who you believe has otherwise provided Personal Information to us, please contact
us using the details set out at the end of this Privacy Policy to have the information deleted.
Information voluntarily provided by persons not Legally of Age via emails, message boards, chat
sessions etc. may be used by other parties to generate unsolicited emails. We encourage parents
and legal guardians to inform children about how to use the Internet in a safe and responsible
manner.
