Privacy Policy

Last Updated: June 2026

Welcome to RankList, published by Gnostic Vampire Media. Your privacy is critically important to us. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our application.

1. Information We Collect

RankList is designed to be a local-first application. By default, your rank order lists, scores, and notes are securely stored directly in your browser's local storage. This data never leaves your device unless you choose to enable Cloud Sync or Export your data.

If you choose to use Cloud Sync by signing in with Google, we collect your basic profile information (such as your email address) strictly to authenticate your account and securely back up your application state to our Firebase database.

2. Google AdSense and Advertising Cookies

To support the development and maintenance of RankList, we may display advertisements provided by Google AdSense.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to our sites and/or other sites on the Internet.
Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.

3. Data Security and Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information or residency match data to third parties. Data synced to our cloud infrastructure is protected using industry-standard encryption and security practices provided by Google Firebase.

4. Your Rights

Because your primary data is stored locally, you have full control over it. You can export, modify, or delete your data at any time by clearing your browser's local storage or using the tools provided within the RankList application.

5. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.
