                Frequently Asked Questions

                What is CineTally?

                CineTally is a private community dashboard that aggregates watch histories for a group of friends. It turns everyone's film logs into shared stats, charts, recommendations, and interactive graph visualizations.

                Do I need a film diary account?

                Yes. CineTally syncs data from your public film diary. You'll need an active profile with a public diary to participate.

                How does the data sync work?

                When you first join, you upload a full export file (a ZIP from your film diary settings). After that, CineTally automatically checks your public RSS feed every week for new diary entries.

                Is my data private?

                You own your data. CineTally does not sell data, run ads, or share information with third parties. Community stats are visible to anyone who visits the site, but you control your own account and can delete it along with all associated data at any time.

                What are the graph visualizations?

                CineTally uses a graph database to map connections between members and films. The Community Film Network shows which films connect which members. The Member Connection Web shows how closely aligned your taste is with others. The thicker the line, the more films you share.

                What are monthly challenges?

                Each month, CineTally picks a themed challenge (e.g., "Watch a film from the 1960s" or "Try a documentary"). The community can see who's completed it, adding a fun, low-pressure incentive to explore new genres and eras.

                How do I join?

                Create an account, then head to the Join page to link your film diary username and upload your history. An admin will add you to the community member list.

                Is CineTally free?

                Yes. CineTally is a self-hosted community project. There are no subscriptions, premium tiers, or hidden fees.
