FarNotApart.com uses no advertising trackers or marketing cookies. The member area uses one essential, secure session cookie to keep an invited user signed in.
1. What the service processes
When you visit the website, the hosting server may process standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, requested page, date and time, response status and referrer. This is used to deliver the site, detect abuse and keep it secure.
For invited alpha accounts, the service stores a username, email address, display name, account role, a one-way password hash, sign-in security records, session data, quiz answers, answer-visibility choices and any recorded choice to open the optional 18+ question category. It does not currently collect payments, photos, precise location data or mobile-device identifiers.
2. Sensitive quiz answers
Some optional questions concern beliefs, sexuality, fantasies, desires, kink, fetishes and personal boundaries. Answers about a person’s sex life or sexual orientation may be specially protected personal data. The 18+ category is off by default and requires a separate, explicit choice by each adult. A user can skip every question, keep an answer private, delete an answer and withdraw access to the 18+ category.
An answer marked “after both partners answer” is intended to become visible only after both partners have answered that question. During the first single-account alpha there is no connected partner, so answers are visible only to the account owner.
3. Cookies and analytics
The member area sets the essential fna_session cookie. It expires when the browser session ends, is not used for tracking and is protected with Secure, HttpOnly and SameSite settings. No analytics or advertising cookies are currently set.
4. Purpose and legal basis
Account and quiz data is processed to provide the private alpha requested by invited users. Technical and sign-in security data is processed to operate the service and protect it from misuse. The separate 18+ choice records explicit consent for processing the optional intimate category; withdrawing that choice prevents further access but does not silently delete answers the user may still want to review or remove.
5. Storage, retention and sharing
Account and quiz data is stored in a protected database outside the public website directory. Passwords are stored only as secure hashes. Server logs are rotated under the hosting configuration and are not used for profiling. Data may be accessible to the hosting operator and infrastructure providers only where needed to run, secure or troubleshoot the service, or when required by law. It is not sold or used for targeted advertising.
Alpha data is kept while the account remains active or until the user deletes individual answers or requests account deletion. More precise retention periods, encrypted-backup handling and an automated deletion workflow must be completed before inviting a wider beta group.
6. Your choices and rights
Invited users can review and delete individual quiz answers inside their account and withdraw the optional 18+ choice in Profile & consent. A full account-deletion request can be made through the same private support channel used for the invitation. Depending on where you live, you may also have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing, and to lodge a complaint with a data-protection authority.
7. The future apps
Before iOS or Android accounts, partner invitations or location features become available, this policy will be expanded with verified business and privacy contacts, complete retention periods, mobile-platform disclosures, data export and the exact self-service deletion process.
8. Changes
This notice will change as the service develops. The updated date at the top will always show the current version. Material changes will be explained before they take effect for registered users.
