IQ World Rank

Terms of Use

Last updated: July 16, 2026. These terms are a protective launch draft and should be reviewed by a qualified lawyer before the site accepts real users or real payments.

1. Acceptance

By using IQ World Rank, buying a test, submitting an attempt, appearing on a leaderboard, or downloading a certificate, you agree to these Terms and the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

2. Nature of the Service

IQ World Rank provides cognitive-performance pilot tests and Experimental Cognitive Index scores for entertainment, competition, and self-assessment. Scores are algorithmic pilot estimates only. They are not clinical IQ scores, psychological diagnoses, educational assessments, employment assessments, medical advice, or proof of ability.

You must not rely on IQ World Rank for hiring, admissions, medical, legal, financial, immigration, insurance, or other high-stakes decisions.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the service. If you are under the age of majority in your country, you should use the service only with permission from a parent or guardian.

4. Paid Access

Payment unlocks the selected test access shown at checkout. A Basic purchase unlocks one Basic attempt. A Comprehensive purchase unlocks one Comprehensive attempt.

After payment and before starting an attempt, you may review the test options, edit your entry details, leave the page, and return later to continue with the unlocked attempt. Once a one-time paid attempt is started, it is consumed even if you close the page, lose connection, abandon the test, or run out of time, except where required by law or where IQ World Rank chooses otherwise.

5. Refunds

Unless required by law, payments are non-refundable after access is unlocked or a test form is generated. We may consider refunds for duplicate charges, payment processor errors, or technical failures that prevent access and cannot reasonably be fixed. Refund requests must include the purchase email or checkout reference and be sent to the support contact listed on the site.

6. Entry Details and Leaderboards

You are responsible for choosing an appropriate username and accurate cohort details. By submitting a test, you agree that your username, estimated score, rank, country, city, gender category, age or age band, test type, and related statistics may appear on public leaderboards and certificates.

Do not submit a username or city entry that reveals sensitive personal data, impersonates someone else, infringes rights, harasses others, or contains offensive content.

7. Test Integrity

You must not copy, scrape, publish, sell, reverse engineer, automate, share, or distribute test questions, answers, scoring logic, certificates, or leaderboard data except through built-in sharing features. You must not use bots, multiple identities, answer sharing, collusion, exploits, chargeback abuse, or other methods to manipulate scores, payments, or leaderboards.

We may invalidate attempts, remove leaderboard entries, block access, or refuse service if we believe the service has been abused.

8. Accuracy and Availability

We do not guarantee that questions, generated forms, scoring, rankings, averages, celebrity/reference boards, certificates, or analytics are error-free, scientifically validated, continuously available, or suitable for any particular purpose. Prototype scores and averages may change as the item bank, scoring model, and data set evolve.

9. Celebrity and Fictional Reference Boards

Celebrity, historical, and fictional IQ references are for entertainment and comparison only. They may include reported estimates, fan-reference estimates, historical references, or fictional values. They are not verified IQ World Rank attempts and should not be treated as factual claims about living people.

10. Intellectual Property

IQ World Rank, the site design, scoring model, generated test forms, question bank, certificates, text, graphics, and code are owned by IQ World Rank or its licensors. You receive a limited, revocable, non-transferable right to use the service for personal, lawful use only.

11. Third-Party Services

The service may rely on third-party providers such as Stripe, hosting providers, analytics providers, email providers, and security tools. Their own terms and policies may apply. We are not responsible for third-party services outside our control.

12. Disclaimers

The service is provided "as is" and "as available" to the fullest extent permitted by law. We disclaim warranties of accuracy, reliability, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, uninterrupted availability, and error-free operation.

13. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, IQ World Rank and its owners, operators, contractors, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost data, reputational harm, emotional distress, lost opportunities, leaderboard changes, score disputes, or reliance on estimated scores.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim related to the service is limited to the amount you paid to IQ World Rank for the test or access giving rise to the claim in the three months before the claim arose, or USD $25 if you paid nothing.

14. Indemnity

You agree to defend and indemnify IQ World Rank from claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses arising from your misuse of the service, your violation of these Terms, your leaderboard content, or your infringement of someone else's rights.

15. Changes, Suspension, and Termination

We may change the service, pricing, scoring, questions, leaderboards, certificates, or these Terms. We may suspend or terminate access, remove results, or refuse service where needed to protect the platform, users, payment integrity, or legal compliance.

16. Governing Law

Add the governing law, venue, company entity, registered address, dispute process, and any arbitration/class-action wording only after lawyer review. These provisions vary by jurisdiction and must be drafted carefully to be enforceable.

17. Contact

Add your business name, registered address, and support/legal email before launch. Example: support@iqworldrank.com.
