Terms of Service

These terms are the agreement between you and XU JUNYUAN, an individual seller based in China when you use Side of You. By using the site you accept them.

What this service is — and is not

For entertainment and self-reflection purposes only. Not a medical, psychological, or diagnostic assessment, and not a substitute for professional advice.

These tests are entertainment and self-reflection. They are not a diagnostic tool, a clinical assessment, or a substitute for talking to a qualified professional. Nothing on this site should be used to make a decision about your health, your relationships, your job, or anyone else.

Results describe tendencies in the answers you gave at that moment. They are not a statement of fact about who you are, and they are not a judgement about anyone else.

Who can use the site

You must be at least 13 years old to use the site. If you are under 18, you may only buy a test with permission from a parent or guardian, and they should read these terms too.

Your purchase

  • Each test is a one-time purchase. The price is shown before you pay, in US dollars, at the checkout.
  • There is no subscription, no automatic renewal, and nothing is charged again later.
  • Sales tax or VAT is calculated at checkout based on where you are, and is shown on the receipt.
  • One purchase gives one test access. You can buy the same test again if you want to take it again.

Payment and who you are buying from

Paddle is the merchant of record for every purchase. That means your payment is legally made to Paddle, and Paddle handles payment processing, tax, the receipt you receive by email, and refunds. Paddle’s own buyer terms apply to that transaction alongside these terms.

The charge on your bank or card statement will usually show Paddle’s name rather than ours, because Paddle is the seller of record. If you do not recognise a charge, please contact us before raising a dispute with your bank — we can normally sort it out in a day, and a dispute takes far longer.

Refunds

Refunds are covered by our Refund Policy. In short: if something went wrong on our side, you get your money back.

Your licence to use the test

  • Your purchase gives you a personal, non-transferable licence to take that test once and read its result.
  • You may share a link to your result, but you may not resell the tests, publish the questions, or give your test access to other people.
  • You may not copy, scrape, reverse-engineer, or use automated tools against the site or its content.

What you must not do

  • Attempt to interfere with the site, its security, or other people’s access.
  • Use the site or its content to build a competing product or to train a machine-learning model.
  • Impersonate anyone, or use the site in a way that breaks the law.
  • Try to obtain a test access without paying for it.

Content and intellectual property

The tests, the result text, the design, and the site itself belong to us or our licensors. Your responses belong to you: we store them to produce your result and to show it to you again later, and for nothing else. You give us the limited permission needed to do exactly that.

If a future feature lets you share a result card publicly, you choose whether to share it. We will never publish your answers.

Availability and changes

We may add, change or withdraw a test, and we may change the site, at any time. If we withdraw a test you have paid for and have not yet taken, you are entitled to your money back. We aim to keep the site running, but we do not promise it will be uninterrupted or error-free.

No professional advice

Nothing on this site is medical, psychological, psychiatric, legal, financial or relationship advice, and it is not a diagnosis of any condition. If you are struggling with your mental health, please speak to a qualified professional or a local support service. If you are in immediate danger, contact your local emergency number.

Limits of our liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for decisions you take based on a test result. Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability for any claim relating to a purchase is limited to the amount you paid for that purchase.

Nothing in these terms limits rights you have that cannot be given up by agreement, including consumer rights in your country of residence.

Third-party services

The site relies on Paddle (payments and tax), Supabase (database) and Vercel (hosting). Their services have their own terms, and we are not responsible for their acts or omissions. See the Privacy Policy for what each of them handles.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the laws of the People's Republic of China. If you are a consumer, this does not take away the protection of the mandatory consumer law of the country you live in, and you can bring proceedings in your local courts.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The date at the top of the page shows when they last changed, and the version in force is the one published when you made your purchase.
