Privacy Policy
Last updated March 19, 2026. Read the Terms of Use too.
Overview
RateMyRagnarok is a Ragnarok Online database, server discovery platform, and community resource. We collect only the information that helps us operate the site, improve the experience, protect the platform from abuse, and support community features such as server listings, reviews, ratings, guides, and tools.
The short version is simple: we want the platform to stay useful, fair, fast, and safe. If you use the site, you agree to the collection and use of information as described here.
Information We Collect
Depending on how you use the site, we may collect several categories of information that are relevant to operating the platform.
- Information you choose to submit, such as server listing details, ratings, reviews, feedback, messages, or other content you provide to us.
- Basic technical data such as IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, language settings, referring pages, and approximate location data derived from IP.
- Usage data such as pages visited, features used, clicks, and time spent on certain parts of the site.
- Information stored through cookies or similar technologies that help with analytics, preferences, and performance.
If you post public content, including server information, comments, ratings, or reviews, that content may be visible to other visitors and may remain associated with the site for moderation, security, or recordkeeping reasons.
How We Use Information
We use collected information to keep the platform useful and to protect the integrity of rankings, listings, and community features.

- Display, moderate, and organize user-submitted content such as listings, ratings, reviews, and feedback.
- Detect spam, fake activity, abuse, manipulation, scraping, fraud, or attempts to interfere with the platform.

- You can choose not to submit server information, reviews, ratings, or feedback.
- If you want public content you submitted to be reviewed for removal or correction, contact us with enough detail for us to identify it.
Retention and Security
We keep information only as long as it is reasonably necessary for site operations, moderation, security, analytics, legal compliance, or legitimate recordkeeping. We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information, but no service can guarantee absolute security.
Children's Privacy
RateMyRagnarok is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to the site, contact us so we can review and remove it where appropriate.
Changes and Contact
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date on this page. Continued use of the site after changes become effective means you accept the revised policy.
If you have privacy-related questions, concerns, or removal requests, contact RateMyRagnarok through our official community channels.
