Your answers stay anonymous
Here’s what we keep, what we don’t, and how to get rid of it.
- You're anonymousNo email and no account. The only time we ask for a name is when you compare with a partner — whether you send the invite or accept it. Any nickname works; we keep it with the invite and the other person sees it.
- A cookie remembers youA random ID in a cookie called fs_id ties your answers to this browser. It isn't you. Clear your cookies and this browser forgets you, so you'd start again.
- Answers go in our databaseYour answers are stored against that random ID, never against your name.
- Your IP is scrambledWe keep your IP address only as a salted hash, a one-way scramble that we can't easily turn back into your address. It's just enough to spot spam.
- Visit stats, not answersWe count page visits with Rybbit, a cookieless analytics tool, to see how many people come by and where they drop off. It never sees your answers, and partner links are hidden from it.
- Where you came from, and on whatWhen you start, we note which site sent you here (just its name, like theforeplaygame.com) and the tag on the link you followed, so we know which links work. Never the page you were on. We also note your kind of device (phone, tablet or computer) and its system, nothing more specific.
- Partner links are selectiveA partner link only shows the sections you both pick. "Ever faked it", Confessions, body measurements and the basics are never shared. Anyone with the link can open it, so only send it to someone you trust.
- Delete anytime"Delete my answers" on your results page removes everything, including partner comparisons.
- It's for funThe results are a bit of fun, not science. Don't take them as a study.
- 18+ onlyThis survey is for adults.
