Northstarself
PRIVACY POLICY

Privacy, in plain language

Northstarself is designed to work without an account. Your assessment results are kept local first, with server storage used only for specific features.

Information you provide

You may provide assessment answers, an optional email address, and payment information if paid features are enabled. Payment details are handled by Stripe and are not stored directly by Northstarself.

Local result storage

Assessment results are saved in your browser's local storage so the result screen can reopen on the same device. This happens before any account or email flow. Local storage is device and browser specific.

  • Retaking a test clears and replaces that test's local result.
  • Clearing site data or using private browsing can remove saved results.
  • Local results are not automatically synced across devices.

Server-side storage

The flagship personality type test may send completed result data to the site API so the product can support saved reports and future account features. Email is sent only when you choose to save, unlock, or receive a copy. If the backend is not configured, those requests safely no-op during local development.

Analytics and diagnostics

The site can use Microsoft Clarity to understand aggregate usage patterns, diagnose broken flows, and improve the product experience. Analytics tools may collect device, browser, interaction, and page usage data according to their own policies.

How information is used

  • To calculate and display your assessment results.
  • To restore locally saved results on the same device.
  • To send or unlock a report when you explicitly provide an email.
  • To improve reliability, usability, and content quality.

Your choices

You can retake an assessment to replace its local result, clear this site's browser data to remove local results, avoid entering an email, or disable analytics through browser privacy controls where available.

Important limits

Northstarself is a self-reflection product, not a clinical or professional service. Do not submit sensitive information that you would not want processed by a web application.
