The rules, in plain words.

A rating is only worth something if the log is honest. Fabricated results, matches against people who did not play, and repeated scorelines between the same four players are detected and excluded.

A match counts once somebody on the other side confirms it, or after the auto-confirm window. If a result is wrong, dispute it — that freezes its effect on everyone’s rating until it is resolved.

The free scoreboard produces standings, not ratings — while it runs, afterwards, and on claim. It is enforced structurally: those sessions have no connection to the rating pipeline at all.

Nobody at Rank My Padel can adjust a rating. There is no override to ask for and none to be granted.

Liability, jurisdiction, termination and the rest belong in a document written by a lawyer. This page will be replaced by that document before launch, not by a longer version of this one.
