Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 8, 2026 · Applies to handwritingpersonalitytest.net.

What we collect

This site has no user accounts, no sign-up and no cookies of its own. We do not sell personal information. The test itself stays on your device, while the optional Handwriting Compare feature puts the limited information described below into a link you choose to create and share.

Analytics

We use a self-hosted copy of Plausible Analytics, a privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics tool (your analytics data stays on our own server and is not sent to the Plausible company), to count page views and basic interaction events. Our event properties do not include your nickname, seven handwriting profile scores, handwriting test answers, invite context, invite URL or query string. Plausible does not use cookies or track you across sites. See the Plausible data policy.

Microsoft Clarity is not loaded on the home page, quiz, staging or local development. On the production site it starts as soon as your personalized result opens, including the free result view, and may continue for the rest of that page visit so we can diagnose result, Deep Reading and payment usability through interaction data such as clicks, scrolling, layout and errors. We start it with analytics and advertising storage denied and do not send a custom identity. Clarity applies its built-in protection to sensitive input values such as Email. PayPal wallet and card fields are hosted in third-party frames whose contents Clarity cannot record. See what Clarity collects and the Microsoft Privacy Statement.

Your handwriting test answers

The test is our own original implementation and runs entirely on this domain. Your quiz progress and answers are stored locally in your own browser (localStorage) and are never sent to any server. No third-party quiz content is embedded.

Handwriting Compare invite links

If you create a Handwriting Compare invite, the nickname you enter, your seven handwriting profile scores and your two-virtue combination are encoded in a self-contained invite URL. The link is designed to keep working without an account or database. Anyone who receives it can read or modify those values, and the full URL may appear in chat previews, browser history and edge request logs. Do not use a name you consider private.

When you open a valid invite, the same minimal snapshot is stored in your browser under the technical key svt:twin:v1 so the result can be compared after you finish the test. Once you accept, that snapshot stays on this device across ordinary visits so you can reopen the comparison. A new valid invite replaces it; a damaged or empty invite link, or choosing IGNORE INVITE, removes it. Your 30 handwriting test answers are never added to the invite URL or sent back to the inviter automatically.

Optional paid Deep Reading

If you choose to buy a Deep Reading, we store the delivery email you enter, its protected lookup hash, your seven handwriting profile scores and result version, internal order status, and PayPal order/capture identifiers in a Cloudflare D1 database. We use this data to prevent duplicate charges, unlock the report, restore access, deliver the transaction email and PDF, support refunds, and keep a limited administrative audit trail. We do not create a visitor account for the purchase.

PayPal processes wallet or card payment details. We never receive or store your full card number or security code. Resend delivers the one transaction email containing your private magic link and PDF.

The browser keeps only a private reading credential under svt:reading:v1. The magic-link token is removed from the address bar before analytics runs; the database stores only a one-way hash. Refunds and payment reversals revoke the matching web credential. The PDF contains the result content, not your email, token, order number or PayPal identifiers.

External links

Links to external sites (such as Bluesky or the original quiz) are provided for credit and convenience; their content and privacy practices are their own.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with an updated date.
