Disclaimer & Privacy

Please read the following information carefully before using MindScreen.

Not a Diagnosis

The screening quizzes provided on MindScreen are NOT medical diagnoses. They are brief, informational self-assessment tools based on published, validated screening instruments (GAD-7, ASRS v1.1, ISI, OCI-R, PQ-B). These instruments are designed for preliminary screening purposes only.

Only a qualified healthcare professional (such as a psychiatrist, psychologist, or licensed therapist) can provide a medical or psychological diagnosis. Screening results should not be used as a substitute for professional evaluation, diagnosis, or treatment.

Privacy Notice

  • • Your quiz answers are never stored. All screening questions are processed entirely in your browser. No answers are sent to or stored on any server.
