Terms of Use

Acceptance of terms

By accessing and using 16Kinks ("the Site"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the Site.

Nature of the service

16Kinks provides an educational self-assessment tool based on a structured framework for understanding BDSM preferences. The test and its results are for entertainment and self-exploration purposes only.

16Kinks is not a clinical diagnostic tool, therapy service, or medical device. Results should not be interpreted as psychological diagnoses, medical advice, or prescriptions for behavior.

Age requirement

You must be at least 18 years old — or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher — to use this Site. By using the Site, you confirm that you meet this age requirement.

User conduct

You agree not to:

• Use the Site for any unlawful purpose
• Attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or reproduce the test content
• Misrepresent 16Kinks results as clinical assessments
• Use the Site to harass, pressure, or label others without their consent

Intellectual property

All content on the Site — including the test framework, type descriptions, design, and branding — is the intellectual property of 16Kinks. You may share your personal results, but you may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from the Site's content without written permission.

Public beta and legacy purchases

The test and complete report are free during the current public beta. The Site does not offer a checkout or accept new payments. We may change, limit or discontinue beta features in the future, but we will not charge you without presenting separate terms and asking for an affirmative purchase action.

If you made a purchase under an earlier version and need help with that historical transaction, email support@16kinks.com. Disabling new payments does not remove any statutory refund, cancellation or consumer rights that apply to an earlier purchase.

Consent and safety

16Kinks promotes informed, consensual exploration. The Site does not endorse any activity without the explicit, ongoing consent of all parties involved. Users are solely responsible for how they apply any information from this Site.

Disclaimer of warranties

The Site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any results or content.

Limitation of liability

16Kinks shall not be liable for any damages arising from your use of the Site, including but not limited to direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.

Changes to terms

We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time. Changes will be posted on this page. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance.

Language

These Terms are provided in several languages for convenience. If there is any inconsistency between versions, the English version governs.
