Strict confidentiality is provided to users and the information they provide. The selections made in response to the Lovability Screen™ questionnaire are considered to be privately owned and managed psychometric raw data, are confidential and privileged and subject to ethical controls. All personal information gathered during the process of using the Lovability Screen™ will be maintained securely and solely for research purposes. Personal name identification will only be maintained beyond the session of use by a user for later retrieval purposes for the user. A code will be used for all other purposes. A code will be attached to data and that code released only to the user. The user may give the code to others but those persons will not be able to access data previously provided. The code identifies only specific session data and may be used to notify prizewinners. No person can be identified from the psychometric data they provide. Data will be preserved within a secure electronic storage facility and accessed only by authorised and qualified professional research staff. No data of any sort will be released to nor provided to any other organization with the exception of credit card information held by the operator’s banking agency.
Users may indicate their wish not to enter any draws or competitions as conducted by lovability.org from time to time by informing the site operators. Otherwise, those members with the required number of loyalty credits will be automatically included. Winners will be notified by email and their details sought for sending the prize winnings or for notifying them of eligibility for benefits. Failure to provide mailing address details in a response email to us within one week of notification will render the prize forfeit. All prize monies will be issued by cheque. Prizes are in accordance with the IOM Lotteries Commission. Prize draw frequency will be determined by the volume of use of the Lovability Screen™ paid results.
Standard PayPal credit transactions rules apply. The banking agency will hold the monies and details of credit cards for a period of seven days before release to the Lovability Screen™ site operators. Refunds may be requested and actioned via PayPal.
Fees are charged for each Screen completed for which a report is sought, with the exception of the free report. Originating Lovability Screen™ reports by an initiating user will carry a fee of five pounds (5.00) United Kingdom currency. Screens by an originating user on behalf of a partner – and all other meta-perspectives - will carry a fee of five Pounds and one loyalty credit may be used to reduce this cost. Compatibility comparison reports are provided free of any charge to users who have paid for two distinct tests. Foreign Exchange conversion will be at the daily rate set by the operators' banking agency and bourn by the site operators. After the first Screen completion by a respondent, credit card details will be sought prior to transmission. The 'send' instruction is considered to be an Authorisation given by the sender to debit the credit card. Subsequent Screen selection and transmission will be considered as a further Authorisation to further debit the same card. No receipt is available. Check your credit card statement for details. Your card statement will show a PayPal transaction description of LOVEREPORT. All fees are subject to revision at the discretion of the operators.
Loyalty Credits are awarded to all users completing a test that results in a Report with the exception of the free report and the compatibility report. One credit may be attached to a new report and a reduction of 20% of the fee will be automatically made. Credits may be gained in a variety of ways and the text of the site will notify users. Any number of credits may be accumulated. Specific introductory credits may be offered to prospective users on the recommendation of a user. Credits form the basis of inclusion to the Members Area and to prizes and draws which will be offered from time to time. The site operators reserve the right to vary the number of credits needed for any benefit. Gross loyalty credits will reflect minimal charitable gifting potentials of the site and the site operators reserve the right to increase charitable gifting beyond the loyalty credit volume, depending upon site incomes.
Users are invited to contact the site operators with comments and suggestions. The designers, operators and researchers are interested in all views and perspectives and may incorporate valid and useful suggestions in future report texts unless respondents indicate otherwise.
Our gifting philosophy is to cover both direct and indirect gifting, but mainly direct. We give emergency relief to individuals, families and children in a range of communities in a range of countries enabling survival where no other help is readily accessible. Much of this is not tax deductible as the recipients are individuals and not organisations. (we like to swoop in, give a handout – or a hand – and disappear leaving them saying 'who WAS that masked man??'). Some is occasionally deductible, where we give to selected regular Charitiy organisations. You can tell us of charity causes that you admire or think could do with a contribution or a hand. We like to hear about what the mainstream doesn't hear or seem to care about. There is a huge need out there.
The Lovability Screen™ is a private research instrument only and is in the process of validation extension using conventional psychological research protocols. The data collected is toward this process only apart from the user’s own purposes. Periodic analysis of data will be for research purposes and may affect future scoring system adjustments. The Lovability Screen™ used has been adapted, developed and trialed for private and confidential therapeutic discussion purposes. Face to face private-practice therapy clients are usually led through a consideration of their own lives, attitudes and behaviours in the light of the test results and interpret accordingly. The test developers and this site operators recommend that users of the Lovability Screen™ do like-wise, integrating their own perspectives in an open and questioning manner rather than take the results as fixed and incontrovertible. The interpretations offered in the reports are generic and cannot cover every aspect of any particular person and must be read accordingly. This Screen and its reports are not intended by implication or interpretation either implicitly or explicitly to be a psychological test under the meaning used by worldwide Psychological Associations. The test developers take no responsibility for the accuracy or otherwise of the interpretations provided in reports nor for interpretations made by users as these are subjective, not objective and the user has the ability under self-determined circumstances to give responses that are not genuine. Respondents are recommended to discuss the results with a trained, qualified and experienced Psychologist or Counsellor or Therapist if they have concerns as to relevance, validity or applicability. We further recommend that users treat the results as a guide only and understand that the results and recommendations are given in a spirit of lightness and good humour even whilst addressing real life concerns.
The Screens and Reports are intended for the use of the individual respondents only and contain information that is confidential and privileged. The designers and operators will not be responsible for the outcomes of discussions and communications between the respondents and other parties regarding any aspect of the reports. The designers and operators will not be responsible for commentaries contained in materials that might be considered by a recipient as unsuitable whether or not such recipients are overly sensitive persons with low self-esteem, no sense of humour or irrational religious or sexual beliefs. If you are not the intended recipient, any dissemination, distribution or copying of the reports is not authorised (either explicitly or implicitly) and constitutes an irritating social faux-pas. Only recycled electrons have been used throughout the site and all screen contents. Unless the word absquatalulation has been used in its correct context somewhere in the report to users, the report is invalid as a therapeutic measure and other than in this warning, it does not have any legal or grammatical use and may be ignored. No animals were harmed in the transmission of any report, although the Yorkshire Terrier next door is living on borrowed time, let me tell you. Those of you with an overwhelming fear of the unknown will be gratified to learn that there is no hidden message revealed by reading backwards this warning or any paragraph or sentence on this site and its reports, so just ignore any Alert Notice from Microsoft that might pop-up unexpectedly when you answer question 36. However, by pouring a complete circle of salt around yourself and your computer you can ensure that no harm befalls you and your pets or indeed your partner. If you have received a Lovability Screen™ Report in error, please add some nutmeg and 4 egg-whites and place it in a warm oven for 40 minutes. Whisk briefly and let it stand for 2 hours before icing. A glass of single malt Scotch may also alleviate tensions. Or, indeed, any other ‘calmamik’ of choice. Your partner might appreciate one too.
