Terms of Service

Last updated: April 2026

The Basics

RankTopic is a community-powered ranking platform. By using it, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use the site.

Your Account

You need a valid email to create an account. One account per person. Don't create fake accounts to manipulate votes — we detect and ban that.

Content Rules

• Don't post spam, hate speech, or illegal content.
• Lists and items you create are public. Other users can vote on them.
• We reserve the right to remove content that violates these rules or is clearly low quality.
• AI-assisted moderation reviews submissions. Flagged content may be removed.

Voting

Vote manipulation (bots, multiple accounts, coordinated voting) is prohibited. We rate-limit votes and track patterns. Abusers get banned.

Intellectual Property

You own the content you create. By posting on RankTopic, you grant us a license to display it on the platform. We won't use your content outside of RankTopic without permission.

Liability

RankTopic is provided "as is." We do our best to keep it running, but we don't guarantee uptime or data preservation. Rankings are community opinion, not professional advice.

Changes

We may update these terms. Continued use after changes means you accept them.
