THE BIGGER QUESTION · UPDATED SEPTEMBER 11, 2026

Your curiosity. Your privacy.

This page describes the redesigned calculator released September 11, 2026.

Your inputs

Length, girth, partner language or name, orientation, fictional name mix, and the hypothetical partner count are processed in your browser. This version does not send them to a database, an analytics service, an advertising service, or our server. It does not save them in local storage or cookies. Inputs remain in page memory until cleared or the page is closed; your browser may restore a tab or form depending on its settings.

Your controls

Use “Clear my inputs” to reset the page. The new app removes the previous version’s saved form-data entry when it loads. It does not erase historical records that may have been collected by earlier versions or by third-party providers.

Sharing

The default card contains the study map without your position, name, partner count, or simulated partner dots. The checkbox to include your position is off by default. If you enable it and share or save the card, the chart axes reveal your approximate length and girth. Names, orientation, name mix, letter bands, counts, and simulated dots remain excluded. Recipient apps and services then handle the content according to their own policies. Copied site links contain no personal result.

Hosting and external links

Netlify hosts this website. Like other hosting services, it receives information needed to deliver pages, such as your IP address, requested URL, and browser request headers, and may retain operational logs under its own policies. The calculator does not add your inputs to those requests. The research links take you to independent publishers or public repositories with their own policies.

Advertising and usage tracking

This version does not load third-party ads, popunders, tracking pixels, analytics SDKs, or remote font scripts. Old advertising workers are retired when the redesigned page runs. We do not claim that third-party services erased data they may have received before this release.

Future changes

If measurement collection, saved accounts, payments, advertising, or analytics are introduced, this description must be updated to reflect the actual behavior. Check the revision date above.
