# Learn about IARC ## **What is IARC?** IARC (International Age Rating Coalition) is an international coalition established by major rating organizations worldwide. IARC plays a role in assigning content ratings for apps and games to guide users to the appropriate age groups. Through this, developers can manage different regional rating standards in an integrated manner. ### **Receiving an IARC Rating** To receive a content rating for your app on ONE store, you need to fill out a questionnaire provided by IARC. The questionnaire consists of various questions about the game/app and assesses various elements like sexual content, violence, drugs, gambling, and swearing. ### **Rating Evaluation Process** 1. Questionnaire: Developers will have to fill out the IARC questionnaire at the ONE store developer center. This questionnaire is composed of questions about various content elements of the product. 2. Rating: Based on the answers to the questionnaire, IARC generates an appropriate content rating for the app for each region. These outcomes are based on logic provided by local rating organizations. 3. Display: The assigned rating is displayed on ONE store, allowing users to check the rating and decide whether to download the product. ### **Appealing the Rating** If a developer disputes the assigned rating, they can directly appeal to IARC. The appealing process can be carried out through the link provided in the rating confirmation email. #### **Important Points** * Accuracy: The app's content must be accurately reflected when filling out the questionnaire. Providing incorrect information can result in the cancellation of the rating or prohibition of the product's sale. * Regional Differences: Although IARC ratings follow international standards, they reflect the criteria of each regional rating organization. Therefore, the same product may receive different ratings depending on the region. * Continuous Management: If main content changes when updating a product, it may require revaluation of the rating. IARC is an important system that helps developers efficiently manage regional content ratings when distributing apps in the global market. It is crucial to provide accurate information and keep regular updates to maintain the correct rating. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
