SelfSonar Terms of Use

SelfSonar is being built as an educational self-report testing platform. These terms set safe boundaries for using results, reports, AI analysis, paired comparisons, and observer flows.

Last updated: June 16, 2026

Purpose of the service

SelfSonar provides self-report tests for self-understanding, personal development, communication, and educational purposes.
Results are based on user answers and do not describe a person completely or permanently.

Not a professional assessment

SelfSonar results are not medical, clinical, psychotherapeutic, legal, financial, hiring-related, or other professional assessments.
They must not be used as the sole basis for hiring, dismissal, diagnosis, treatment, fitness-for-work assessment, or decisions that significantly affect a person’s rights or opportunities.

Methodologies and licences

SelfSonar works with methods that have a clear source and legal status. Big Five IPIP-120 is based on open materials from the International Personality Item Pool and the Johnson IPIP-NEO-120 structure.
SelfSonar is not a version, copy, or official adaptation of NEO PI-R, Hogan, HEXACO, or other commercial methods.

AI analysis

AI analysis is an additional automated interpretation of results. It can support reflection, but it does not replace a specialist and should not be treated as final truth.
Before starting AI analysis, the user sees a warning that structured results will be sent to the connected AI service.

Free and full report

SelfSonar may show a short result for free and make the extended report, additional analyses, or export formats paid.
Before payment, the user should see what is included in the paid part and what data will be processed. In test mode, some paid scenarios may open without payment so the UX can be checked.

Paired and observer reports

Paired reports do not determine whether people are compatible. They show possible similarities, differences, complementary areas, and topics for discussion.
Observer reports show differences between self-perception and outside perception, but they are not an objective personality assessment.

User responsibility

The user is responsible for what data they enter, whom they invite, and how they use the conclusions.
If a result causes strong distress or relates to important life decisions, it is better to discuss it with a qualified professional.

International use

SelfSonar is intended as a multilingual environment for different countries. Interface or item localisation does not automatically mean national psychometric validation.
Before public launch in specific jurisdictions, the terms, privacy/GDPR texts, and product flows should be reviewed by local counsel.

No automated decisions

SelfSonar must not use test results for automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects: hiring, dismissal, lending, medical decisions, insurance, or assessment of human rights.
