Privacy

What this site knows about you

Short version: nothing that identifies you. The test runs in your browser, there are no accounts and no cookies of ours, and the only things that ever leave your device are anonymous counts — page views and test events — unless you choose to make a share link.

Last updated 10 November 2026

What stays in your browser

Everything you do during the test. The faces you tap, the faces you skip, the order you tapped them and the model fitted to those choices are all computed on your device. None of it is sent to the server while you take the test.

There is no account, so there is no login, no password and no email address, and no cookie or session identifier of our own. One thing does stay on your device: your test progress, saved in this browser's local storage so a reload or a backgrounded tab does not throw away a half-finished run. It holds face ids and a round number, it is never uploaded, and clearing site data removes it. The Start over button clears it too.

Alongside it, the traffic counter described below keeps a random visitor id in this browser's local storage. It contains no personal data, is not linked to your test answers, and is replaced when you clear site data.

What we do record

One thing: anonymous events. When a page loads, a round starts, or you finish the test, the browser sends a single event to our own server — not to a third party. The payload is:

• the event name — one of view, first_tap, round_done, round_exit, round_auto, result_view, card_download, report_click, share_create, pair_done;
• the page path;
• the referring site's hostname, or direct if there is none;
• an optional whole number — a round index, or the number of faces tapped in a round for round_exit and round_auto. It is never a value derived from your answers.

Rows are counted up per UTC day and thrown away as individual requests. There is no user id, no device fingerprint and no cookie attached, so two visits by the same person are indistinguishable from two visits by two people.

We do not store IP addresses. Our hosting provider processes the request in order to serve the page and keeps its own short-lived logs under its own policy; we cannot read them and do not join them to anything.

There is no Google Analytics, no advertising pixel and no social embed. The one script loaded from outside this domain is Rybbit, a self-hosted traffic counter at rybbit.veta.top. It records page views, the page path and the referring site, and uses the random visitor id above to tell repeat visits apart. It also receives anonymous event names for what happens on the page — finishing the test, downloading the card, creating a share link, opening one, and which share button was used — each optionally with a channel label (x, whatsapp, email, copy, native, wechat). It is never given your face picks or your answers, and sets no advertising cookie. You can confirm every request by viewing the source: the page's own assets, the face labels, the share API and the event beacon described above, plus that one counter.

If you make a share link

Creating a share link is the one action that stores something about your result. It writes a row containing the face ids you tapped, the faces used as your headline (the top slice of your taps), how many faces you saw, the gender filter you chose, your type name, a timestamp and, if you were comparing with a friend, their share id.

It is keyed by a random id and readable by anyone who has the link. Do not post one somewhere you would not want it seen: it is a result, not a secret, but it is also not private once you share it.

There is no delete button yet. To have a link removed, email the address below with the link and it will be deleted. Requests are handled by one person, so give it a day or two.

Crowd numbers

The result card sometimes mentions faces that most visitors tap. That comparison comes from per-face counters: how often a face was shown and how often it was tapped. They are totals across all visitors, not records of who tapped what, and they cannot be traced back to a visit.

Until those totals are large enough to mean anything, the wording on the card stays deliberately vague rather than printing a percentage we cannot support.

Age

The test is written for adults. It asks about physical attraction and it is not intended for anyone under 18.

Changes

If what is stored changes, this page changes with it and the date at the top moves. There is no mailing list to notify, so the page itself is the record.
