About MyKinkFile

Privacy-first kink discovery for curious adults

Our Mission

MyKinkFile exists because self-knowledge is powerful — and that knowledge should belong entirely to you. We built a platform where you can explore your desires, boundaries, and identity without judgement, without surveillance, and without your data being a product sold to advertisers.

Our mission is simple: help adults understand themselves more deeply, and optionally share that understanding with people they trust.

How It Works

01

Take the Discovery Quiz

Answer 50 carefully crafted questions spanning power dynamics, sensation play, restraint, roleplay, and more. The quiz adapts to your experience level and takes around five minutes to complete.

02

Discover Your Archetype

Our scoring engine maps your answers to a nuanced kink archetype — a rich profile that captures your dominant dynamics, preferences, and comfort zones with precision and respect.

03

Build Your Profile

Create an account to save your kinks, fantasies, and limits. Your profile is entirely private by default — share it only when and with whom you choose.

04

Export & Share

Generate a beautiful profile card that you can share privately with a partner, or keep entirely for yourself. Designed to start conversations, not raise questions.

Our Privacy Commitment

Privacy is not a feature at MyKinkFile — it is the foundation. We collect only what is strictly necessary to operate the service. We do not sell data. We do not use third-party analytics. We do not serve ads.

  • Passwords are hashed with bcrypt and never stored in plain text
  • All traffic is encrypted over HTTPS
  • No tracking pixels, no analytics SDKs, no ad networks
  • You can delete your account and all data at any time
  • Guest quiz results are never stored server-side

Read our full Privacy Policy for complete details.

Open Source & Community

MyKinkFile is built in the open. Our codebase is available for review so that our privacy claims can be verified, not just trusted. We believe accountability requires transparency.

We welcome feedback, bug reports, and contributions from the community. If you have ideas for improving the platform — particularly around privacy, accessibility, or inclusivity — we want to hear from you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an account to take the quiz?
No. The quiz is completely free and anonymous. You only need an account if you want to save your results, build a persistent kink profile, or share a profile link.
Who can see my profile?
No one, unless you choose otherwise. Your profile is Private by default. You can change it to Link Only (only people you share the URL with) or Public at any time in Settings.
Is MyKinkFile safe for people in the kink community?
Yes. MyKinkFile was designed with the kink community in mind. Your data is protected, your profile is private by default, and we never identify you by anything other than your email address.
What is a kink archetype?
An archetype is a nuanced label that describes your dominant dynamic preferences — such as Dominant, Submissive, Switch, Rope Bunny, Sadist, Masochist, or combinations thereof. Your archetype is determined by the quiz scoring engine.
Can I delete my account and all my data?
Yes. You can permanently delete your account and all associated data at any time from the Settings page. Deletion is immediate and irreversible.
Is MyKinkFile free?
Yes, MyKinkFile is completely free to use. We are not funded by advertising or data sales.
