Safety

Privacy, safeguarding, and support

This educational site is designed to protect visitors—especially adolescents—by avoiding explicit material and not collecting sensitive personal information.

Privacy and data protection

  • No collection of personal sexual histories or explicit disclosures.
  • No tracking of individual pornography viewing behaviour.
  • No inappropriate interactive quizzes (including no frequency-based diagnostic quizzes).
  • Optional tools (plan, tracker, habit selections): store data only in your browser’s local storage on this device. Data is not sent to a server by this site. You can clear it at any time.
  • Content is educational and non-explicit; adolescent sections are developmentally appropriate.

If this site is deployed, operators should use privacy-respecting analytics (or none), avoid sensitive form fields, and provide a clear privacy notice.

Safeguarding for minors

  • Material for ages 13–17 focuses on health education, protection, and skills—not explicit content.
  • Adolescents who feel confused, pressured, or distressed by online content are encouraged to speak with a trusted adult or qualified professional.
  • Tools are not designed for diagnosis or explicit disclosure; minors should prioritize general wellbeing and support.
  • If a minor is in immediate danger or being exploited, contact local emergency services or child protection authorities.

Finding appropriate support

  • Licensed mental health professionals: psychologists, counselors, therapists, or psychiatrists for confidential assessment and support.
  • Healthcare providers: primary care clinicians can discuss concerns and referrals.
  • Couples counselling: may help when relationship or marriage impacts are present.
  • School or community supports: school counselors or trusted community services (especially for adolescents, with appropriate guardian involvement as needed).

Emergency/crisis: If you or someone else is at immediate risk of harm, contact local emergency services now. Crisis support options vary by country; a local health service, trusted adult, or healthcare provider can help identify appropriate resources.
