Cookie Policy

Last updated: January 1, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how FastCPSTest uses cookies and similar technologies (such as localStorage) on our website at fastcpstest.com. By using our Site, you consent to the use of cookies and similar technologies as described in this policy. You can manage your consent at any time.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. They allow the website to recognize your device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, login state, or browsing behavior. Cookies are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide information to site owners.

In addition to cookies, our Site uses a technology called localStorage. localStorage stores data directly in your browser and is not transmitted to any server. We use localStorage for storing your test scores, theme preference, and cookie consent choice. localStorage is not a cookie and is not governed by cookie regulations, but we describe it here for transparency.

Types of Cookies and Storage We Use

Essential Local Storage

The following data is stored in your browser's localStorage and is essential for the Site to function. This data is not transmitted to any server and can be cleared at any time through your browser settings:

  • CPS test scores: Your best score and last 20 attempts for each test duration.
  • Reaction time best: Your all-time best reaction time.
  • Aim trainer best: Your best hit count in the aim trainer.
  • Theme preference: Whether you have selected dark or light mode.
  • Cookie consent: Your choice to accept or reject advertising cookies.

Advertising Cookies

If you accept cookies, we allow Google AdSense to set cookies on your device for the purpose of serving advertisements. Google AdSense cookies may be used to:

  • Serve ads based on your visits to our Site and other websites.
  • Measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns.
  • Limit the number of times you see the same ad.
  • Provide ads based on your interests (personalized advertising).

If you reject cookies, no Google AdSense scripts are loaded, and no advertising cookies are set. You will see placeholder ad spaces instead of actual advertisements.

Analytics Cookies

We may use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our Site. Analytics cookies help us understand which pages are popular, how visitors find our Site, and how we can improve the user experience. Analytics data is aggregate and not linked to your personal identity.

Cookie Consent

When you first visit our Site, a cookie consent banner appears at the bottom of the screen. This banner explains that we use cookies for advertising and provides two options:

  • Accept: Advertising and analytics cookies will be enabled. Google AdSense will load and may set cookies on your device.
  • Reject: No advertising or analytics cookies will be set. Google AdSense will not load. Essential localStorage will still be used for site functionality.

Your consent choice is stored in your browser's localStorage. To change your choice, clear your browser's local storage for our Site and reload the page. The consent banner will appear again.

Managing Cookies in Your Browser

In addition to our consent banner, you can manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

  • View all cookies stored on your device.
  • Delete individual or all cookies.
  • Block cookies from specific websites.
  • Block all cookies (which may affect website functionality).
  • Clear localStorage and other site data.

For instructions on managing cookies in your specific browser, consult your browser's help documentation. Here are links to cookie management guides for popular browsers:

  • Google Chrome: support.google.com/chrome
  • Mozilla Firefox: support.mozilla.org
  • Safari: support.apple.com/safari
  • Microsoft Edge: support.microsoft.com/edge

Opting Out of Personalized Advertising

Even if you accept cookies, you can opt out of personalized advertising from Google and other advertising networks:

  • Google Ads Settings: Visit ads.google.com/settings to manage your ad personalization preferences with Google.
  • Digital Advertising Alliance: Visit aboutads.info/choices to opt out of personalized advertising from participating companies.
  • Network Advertising Initiative: Visit networkadvertising.org/choices to opt out of personalized advertising from NAI member companies.

Note that opting out does not mean you will see fewer ads — it means the ads you see will not be based on your interests and browsing behavior.

Third-Party Cookies

When advertising cookies are enabled, Google AdSense and its partners may set cookies on your device. These third-party cookies are governed by the respective companies' privacy policies, not ours. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third parties:

  • Google Privacy Policy: policies.google.com/privacy
  • Google AdSense Privacy: support.google.com/adsense

Cookie Retention

Essential localStorage data persists until you clear your browser data. Advertising cookies set by Google AdSense have varying retention periods determined by Google, typically ranging from a few hours to several months. Analytics cookies, if used, typically expire after 14 to 24 months.

Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or our practices. We will notify you of significant changes by posting the updated policy on this page and updating the “Last updated” date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
