We take your privacy very seriously. Regardless of your degree of interaction with sunrank.com, we will never reveal your personal information to any third parties.
That said; we cannot be held responsible or accountable for the actions of any other individual or group with regards to any content, media, or opinions posted on sunrank.com.

We only collect personal information relevant to the purposes of our website. sunrank enables users to discover and share information with one another and the masses. By default, profiles show a non-identifying avatar, name, date of joining, and other sorts of non-personally identifying information.

- update or hide your name on your profile
- modify any information you initially provided
- provide additional information as you please

Please note that we may, at our discretion, close, remove, or transfer any account that infringes upon the rights of another individual, copyright, trademark, or established public identity. Please do not impersonate others.
