Frequently Asked Questions
Everything fans ask us about match scores, privacy, and group lineups.
General
Is K-pop Bias Match official?
No. We are an independent fan project. Match results are generated for fun and are not endorsed by any artist or entertainment company. See our Terms of Service for full disclaimers.
Is this scientifically accurate?
No — and we never claim it is. The tool uses name hashing, FLAMES, and numerology traditions adapted for entertainment. Treat results like a horoscope or personality quiz, not a prediction.
Why do I get the same score every time?
By design. The algorithm is deterministic so you and your friends can compare identical inputs. Change a name, add a birthday, or try a different bias to see new results. Details: How It Works.
Privacy & data
Are my names sent to a server?
No. All match calculations happen in your browser using JavaScript. We do not collect or store the names you type. Read our Privacy Policy for full details.
What is saved on my device?
Optional local storage keeps your play count, bias leaderboard, and cookie preference. Clear the leaderboard on the homepage or wipe site data in browser settings.
Do you use cookies?
Yes. If you accept cookies, Google AdSense may set advertising cookies. You can choose "Essential only" to skip ad loading. See the Privacy Policy for opt-out links.
