Privacy Statement – Sebastyne.net

Last updated: March 2026

Short:

We collect and store the information that you enter into your profile. The use of it is to group you in with people who are compatible with you. 

You don’t have to use your real name on this site, and you are encouraged to use a cloaking email service like Sneakemail.com.

Introduction

Sebastyne.net is a social experiment and discussion network exploring human psychology, relationships, attraction, and personal compatibility. The purpose of this website is to study how people think about relationships, what they value, and how different personality types interact with each other.

To make the experiment meaningful, the site requires some voluntary personal information. This information is used to place participants into groups or categories so that discussions, polls, and interactions can be directed toward people who share or understand similar perspectives.

Participation in this project is entirely voluntary. By creating an account and using the site, you acknowledge that the information you choose to provide may be used for classification within the system.

What Information We Collect

Depending on how you use the site, we may collect:

  • Username or display name

  • Email address

  • Profile information you choose to provide

  • Answers to questionnaires or polls

  • Self-selected personality or relationship categories

  • Optional demographic information

  • Posts, comments, and other content you submit

This information allows the site to group participants according to the ideas explored on the blog, including personality perspectives, relationship preferences, and social compatibility.

Why This Information Is Collected

The information you enter is used primarily to:

  • Allow you to create and manage an account

  • Group users into discussion categories

  • Facilitate conversations between people with compatible or contrasting viewpoints

  • Conduct informal research and observation about relationship dynamics

  • Improve the theory and discussion topics presented on the site

This website is designed as a collaborative social exploration. The classification of users into groups based on their answers or selections is a core feature of the project.

If you enter information into a profile field or questionnaire, you understand that it may be used for that purpose.

Your Choice and Responsibility

You control what information you provide.

Most profile fields are optional. You are free to leave fields blank or provide as much or as little information as you wish.

Because the site encourages open discussion and classification by personal perspective, you should assume that anything you choose to share may influence how the system groups you or how other users perceive you.

Anonymity and Pseudonyms

You are not required to use your legal name.

In fact, we recommend using a pseudonym or screen name.

If you prefer additional privacy, you may also consider using an email forwarding or cloaked email service such as:

  • Sneakemail.com

  • SimpleLogin

  • Proton Mail aliases

  • Other similar services

The goal of the project is participation, not identity verification.

Public vs Private Information

Some information you provide may be visible to other users depending on how the site functions. For example:

  • Your username or profile

  • The groups or categories you choose

  • Content you post publicly

You should avoid posting personal information that you would not want others to see.

Data Storage

Information submitted to the site is stored on the website’s servers and databases.

Reasonable measures are taken to protect stored data, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security.

Use of Data

Your information will be used only for:

  • Operating the website

  • Supporting the social experiment described on the blog

  • Improving the classification and discussion systems

Your information will not be sold to third-party marketers.

Cookies and Technical Data

Like most websites, this site may use cookies or similar technologies to:

  • Maintain login sessions

  • Improve site performance

  • Track basic site usage statistics

These technologies help the site function properly.

  • The project explores relationship psychology and human behavior

  • The site may classify participants according to their responses or chosen categories

  • You are responsible for the information you choose to provide

If you are uncomfortable with being categorized or participating in this type of exploration, you should not use the site.
