Type, pairing and saju explanations you can read without taking a test. The total counts the pages of the 25 kinds listed below, each page once whatever its language, leaving out each kind’s hub page, the guides and the tests. Open a group to see how many pages each kind has.

Results stay in this browser

There is no sign-up or login. The site does not ask for your name, email address or phone number, and it runs no server or database that stores anyone’s answers or results.

Results and settings are kept only in this browser’s storage (localStorage), so they do not show up on another device or in another browser. On the My Results page you can delete results one at a time or all at once, and save them to a backup file (.json) to restore later.

When you share a result by link, the result is written into the link address itself. Anyone with the link can see it, so send it only to people you want to show it to. When the link is opened, Cloudflare (which delivers the page) and ad requests also receive the full address, and saju result links contain the birth date and, if entered, the birth time. Depression (PHQ-9) and anxiety (GAD-7) self-check results cannot be shared by link.

Only if you tap to join the anonymous type ranking on a result page are the test, the result type and the page language sent, to be added to per-type totals. The ranking server neither reads nor stores your IP address or cookies; this browser alone remembers that you joined, so each test is added once. Results of the mood check-ins such as depression and anxiety, Saju, Daily Fortune, Face Analysis and Palmistry are never sent.

Analytics and ad tools the site uses

Ads keep the site free, and visit statistics show which pages and features are used. These are the tools, and the parts of the site they are deliberately kept away from.

Google Analytics 4 · visit statistics
It uses cookies to collect information such as the pages visited, device and browser type and an approximate location. The events the site sends itself only describe feature use, such as which test was started; they never contain answers or scores. PHQ-9 and GAD-7 result pages send nothing at all, not even a page view, and when a shared result is opened, the part of the address that carries the result is removed first.
Cloudflare Web Analytics · visit counts
A counting script that Cloudflare, the site’s host, adds to the pages it serves. It counts information such as the page visited, the previous page, browser type and page load speed, and it uses neither cookies nor browser storage.
Google AdSense · advertising
Ads that keep the site free. Google and third-party vendors use cookies to serve them, and they may be based on your visits. You can turn off personalised ads in Google’s Ads Settings. Ads are not loaded when you open the depression (PHQ-9) or anxiety (GAD-7) check-in pages directly. If you arrive there from another page during the same visit, ad scripts that already loaded may remain.

Languages and search

Every page can be read in four languages: 한국어, English, 日本語 and Français.

Which languages appear in search engines depends on the page. Guides, most tests and the type explanations are listed in all four.

The groups marked “In search in Korean only” above, the topic pages and the Saju test page are listed in Korean only. Their other language versions can be opened but are kept out of search results.

The Face Analysis, Palmistry and Daily Fortune pages are kept out of search results in every language.

What mind.io Is Here To Do

mind.io is a self-understanding site for people who want a clearer read on their patterns, preferences, and habits. The aim is not to hand out dramatic labels, but to make reflection easier and more concrete.

That is why we try not to stop at a score card. We pair results with plain-language explanations that connect the outcome to everyday situations like communication, work, stress, and relationships.

Who Usually Finds It Helpful

mind.io tends to be most useful for people who want a structured starting point for thinking about their communication style, stress patterns, strengths, interests, or relationship habits.

It is much less useful if you need a definitive answer right away. For clinical, legal, financial, or other high-stakes questions, the result should stay in the background while better evidence and qualified advice lead the decision.

How We Hope You Read The Result

We hope readers treat a result less like a final verdict and more like a structured note about how they answered today. Mood, recent experiences, and the way a question is interpreted can all change how a result feels.

If part of a result feels accurate, it can be useful to ask why. If another part feels off, there is no need to force a fit. mind.io is meant to support reflection, not to overrule your own sense of context.
