Personal Color Analysis offers a free, browser-based color questionnaire, outfit ideas and downloadable palette cards. You can use the free experience without an account or uploading photographs.
Quiz answers and downloaded cards
Questionnaire answers and palette cards are processed in your browser. The site's questionnaire does not require a name, email address, account, photograph or payment. Downloaded images are created locally on your device. We do not receive your answers or the generated image through the free quiz feature. If you choose to purchase a paid wardrobe report, your six answers and optional wardrobe preferences are sent to our payment/report service and stored with an order identifier to generate your purchased guide.
One-time paid report and access recovery
A paid report is optional. We use Paddle to handle a one-time purchase and receive its signed transaction events. We retain a transaction identifier, an access-token hash and the answers and optional preferences submitted at checkout in Cloudflare D1. We also store receipt and refund/chargeback status records. We generate the report after verifying entitlement; a PDF copy is delivered on request and is not currently stored as a separate public file.
Your browser may retain a private report recovery code in local storage to enable repeat access and cross-device restoration by copying that code. Anyone with this code can access the paid guide while its entitlement remains active. Keep the code private. Clearing browser storage can remove local access; you may save the code elsewhere. No account or email-based recovery is presently provided by this site.
Paddle processes payment and customer information under its own privacy terms. We do not ask for card details in the questionnaire. For payment concerns, use the support/contact details in your Paddle receipt. To request information about report data or deletion, contact the merchant through your payment receipt and include your transaction reference, not the private recovery code.
Optional Google Analytics
With your permission, the site loads Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-0Q4K69MZTH), supplied by Google, to understand page visits and basic actions such as opening or completing the quiz, exploring outfits and downloading palette cards. These events describe actions and broad result categories; they are not intended to include raw quiz answers, images or identifying details. Google may process online identifiers and usage data as described in Google's Privacy Policy.
Google Analytics does not load through our consent controller unless you select Allow analytics. You may reject analytics and still use the free tool. You can change your decision using the Privacy choices control in the footer. Withdrawing consent stops further analytics loading or measurement through this controller; it does not erase information Google has already processed.
Local preference storage
We store your analytics choice in your browser's local storage under the key pca_analytics_consent_v1 to remember whether you allowed or rejected optional analytics. You can clear that choice using your browser's site-data controls. If you agree to analytics, Google may also use cookies or similar technologies to support measurement.
Hosting and technical requests
The website is hosted using Cloudflare infrastructure. Loading a page necessarily sends technical request information, such as your IP address and browser headers, to the hosting service. Cloudflare's handling of such information is described in its Privacy Policy. This is separate from optional Google Analytics.
Other sites and updates
Links to external services follow their own privacy practices. We may update this notice as the site's features or providers change; the date above indicates the latest revision. The free questionnaire remains free; an optional paid wardrobe PDF is offered separately for a one-time payment.
