Welcome to MouseTester ("we", "us" or "our"). This Privacy Policy applies to mousetester.wiki and explains what information may be collected, how it may be used, and what choices may be available when you browse the site or use the browser-based mouse tester.
1. Browser-based mouse testing
The basic mouse tester reads mouse events delivered to the current browser tab and updates counters, status messages and the event log locally in the page. The ordinary test does not require an account, a download or the upload of a source file. The site is an input-testing tool, not a mouse telemetry service or permanent data store.
The result is limited to what the browser makes visible. A browser event can be processed locally for the test without being treated as a profile of your physical mouse. You should still use a browser, device and network environment that you trust.
2. Information we may collect
- Usage data: Pages visited, approximate visit times, referral sources, browser type, device category, language and approximate location.
- Technical information: IP address, user-agent details, operating-system information, error reports, security events and other identifiers needed to operate and protect the site.
- Interaction data: Basic page interactions and performance signals, such as whether a page loads correctly or whether a feature is used. The mouse tester's ordinary event readings are displayed in the current tab and are not intended to identify you.
- Cookies and similar technologies: Information stored or read by cookies, web beacons, pixels, local browser storage or comparable technologies, subject to the settings of the services used on the site.
- Support communications: Your email address, message and any browser, device or mouse details you choose to send to support.
We do not ask you to create an account for the basic mouse tester. If a future feature introduces accounts, payments or server-side storage, this policy should be updated before that feature is used to process additional personal information.
3. How we use information
- Operate, maintain and improve MouseTester.
- Understand page performance, search demand, accessibility and feature usefulness.
- Protect the site and visitors from abuse, spam, fraud and security threats.
- Respond to bug reports, corrections, feedback and support requests.
- Measure, deliver, limit and report advertising where advertising services are enabled.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.
For example, aggregate signals can help us find a broken mobile layout or a browser-specific issue. We use that information to improve the site and its explanations; we do not need the physical condition of your mouse to provide the basic browser test.
4. Cookies, web beacons and similar technologies
MouseTester and the services used to operate it may use necessary cookies, analytics cookies, advertising cookies, web beacons, pixels, local storage and similar technologies. Cookies or related identifiers may remember preferences, measure visits, detect abuse, understand performance, deliver ads, limit repeated ads, and report whether ads or pages were displayed.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings and, where available, the consent or advertising controls shown by the site. Blocking some cookies may affect measurement, advertising preferences or parts of the site, while necessary hosting, security or cache behavior may still occur.
5. Google products and third-party advertising
We may use Google products, including Google advertising services such as AdSense, to support the site. Google and its partners may collect, receive, share or use information from this site through cookies, web beacons, IP addresses and other identifiers. Depending on the service, settings and applicable consent choices, that information may be used to deliver, personalize, measure, limit, secure and report advertising, and to understand how visitors interact with pages.
Third-party vendors, including Google, may read or write cookies in your browser when advertisements are served or measured. They may also use web beacons, IP addresses and other identifiers to recognize a browser or device, detect invalid traffic, measure reach and frequency, prevent fraud, or report ad performance. These technologies are controlled by the relevant third parties and may be subject to their own policies and choices.
For information about how Google collects, shares and uses data when you use partner sites or apps, review Google's information about data use on partner sites.
6. Sharing and disclosure
We do not sell personal information as a standalone mailing list or user database. We may share limited information with hosting, analytics, security, email, advertising or legal service providers when needed to operate the site, measure performance, serve or report ads, prevent abuse, respond to support requests or comply with law.
We may disclose information when required by legal process, when necessary to protect the site or visitors, or if the site is transferred as part of a business transaction. We aim to share only information reasonably necessary for the specific purpose.
7. Data retention
We retain technical logs, analytics records and support communications only for as long as reasonably needed for site operation, security, measurement, support and legal compliance. Retention periods may vary by the provider and the type of record. The basic mouse tester does not intentionally retain a permanent history of your browser event readings after the test page or session is closed.
8. Your choices and rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to certain personal information, and you may be able to withdraw consent where processing depends on consent. You can also manage cookies through your browser and advertising or consent controls provided on the site.
To ask about a privacy request, contact [email protected]. We may need enough information to verify the request and locate the relevant records.
9. Children's privacy
MouseTester is a general-audience website. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent personal information through support email or another channel, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
10. External links and third-party policies
The site may link to browser documentation, hardware references, standards, Google policies or other external resources. Those websites and services have their own privacy practices, terms and controls. Review the relevant third-party policy before sending information to another service.
11. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to operate the website, monitor abuse and reduce common security risks. No website can promise perfect security, and browser-based tools still depend on your device, browser and network environment. Keep your software updated and contact us if MouseTester behaves unexpectedly.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy by changing the effective date and content on this page. Updates may be needed when the site changes analytics, advertising, hosting, support workflows or product behavior. Continued use of the site after an update means the updated policy applies to future use.
