Privacy & disclosures
Last updated: 2026-09-25. DRAFT -- pending review.
The short version
Your quiz answers never leave your device. We don't have accounts, we don't store your answers, and we don't sell data.
What happens when you take the quiz
- Answers: scored entirely in your browser and discarded when you leave or retake. They are never sent to us or anyone else.
- Age confirmation: we save a single "18+ confirmed" flag in your browser's local storage so you aren't asked again. Clear your site data to remove it.
- Share links: contain your main and secondary result type (for example "The Director, with a streak of The Explorer"), never your answers.
Affiliate links
Some recommendations are affiliate links: if you buy or sign up, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. These links include your main result type (for example "adventure" for The Explorer) so we can see which recommendations are useful. That means the retailer or affiliate network receives your result type along with the technical details any website receives when you visit it, such as your IP address. They never receive your answers. The retailer's own privacy policy applies once you land on their site.
Analytics
If enabled, we use cookieless, privacy-focused analytics that count page views and events (quiz started, quiz completed with result type, recommendation clicked). It does not use cookies or collect personal data.
Email (only if you sign up)
If you choose to join the email list, we store your email address and your result type, and use them only to send the guide and occasional ideas and deals. Every email has an unsubscribe link. We never sell your email or share it with anyone except the email service provider that sends the messages for us.
Your rights
To access or delete anything we hold about you (in practice, only an email address if you signed up), contact us at privacy@spicytype.com.
Adults only
This site is for adults 18 and over. It contains no explicit imagery. It is entertainment, not medical, psychological, or relationship advice.
Spicy Type is a Velvet Bloom Studio project.
