Overview
Roblox Server Scout is a browser extension that adds better server controls, Quick Play, recent lobbies, customization, marketplace features, profile tools, saved records, and other selected Roblox utilities to Roblox webpages. Its purpose is to add practical controls and information that are not available together in the standard Roblox interface.
Roblox Server Scout is an independent browser extension and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Roblox Corporation.
Scope of this policy
This policy covers:
- The Roblox Server Scout browser extension.
- The static website hosted at getserverscout.com.
- Messages voluntarily sent to support@getserverscout.com.
This policy does not control Roblox Corporation, browser vendors, the Chrome Web Store, websites that you open from Roblox Server Scout, or any service operated by another party. Their own policies apply to their services.
Information the extension processes
“Process” in this policy includes reading, requesting, comparing, calculating, displaying, caching, or storing information. Not every category below is used in every session; many are used only when you open a related Roblox Server Scout tool.
| Category | Examples | Source and purpose | Typical storage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Roblox experience information | Place IDs, universe IDs, experience names, URLs, icons, and saved games | Read from the current Roblox page or requested from Roblox services to identify the experience and show Roblox Server Scout features. | Some results and saved items may be cached locally. |
| Server information | Server or job IDs, player counts, maximum capacity, open slots, server addresses, recent lobby entries, and join results | Read from Roblox pages and Roblox server/join services to compare servers, power recent-lobby features, and perform user-requested joins. | Current results may be cached; recent lobby and server history can be stored locally. |
| Region and connection information | Exact or estimated server region, city/country labels, route, distance, latency or ping observations, stability, jitter, scoring factors, and confidence labels | Calculated from Roblox server responses, packaged location mappings, user-selected region preferences, and optional connection tests. | Settings, route memory, health observations, feedback, and diagnostic history can be stored locally. |
| Browser location, when requested | Latitude, longitude rounded to four decimal places, approximate accuracy, source label, and update time | Requested through the browser geolocation prompt only when you choose the browser-location option. Used to recommend routes and estimate distance. | Saved locally in extension settings until you reset it, clear extension data, or uninstall. |
| Settings and customization | Setup choices, server preferences, panel options, themes, color palettes, custom backgrounds, favorites, and feature settings | Provided by you to customize Roblox Server Scout. | Stored in browser extension storage. Uploaded image backgrounds may be stored in local IndexedDB. |
| Roblox account and tool information | User IDs, usernames, display names, profile details, avatar thumbnails, friend counts, presence, friend requests, groups, badges, inventory ownership, catalog items, limited-item information, and outfit details | Requested from Roblox services when you open or use the related profile, friend, marketplace, group, badge, ownership, or outfit tools. | Selected results, notes, watchlists, favorites, and caches may be stored locally. |
| Local notes and saved records | Profile notes, friend notes, group records, saved profiles, saved outfits, username history, watchlists, ownership history, and playtime records | Created by you or generated from your use of extension features. | Stored locally in the browser until cleared or uninstalled. |
| Operational and diagnostic information | Request status, errors, cooldowns, retry timing, API availability, cache status, connection-test results, and extension version | Used to keep the extension stable, avoid excessive requests, explain failures, and help with troubleshooting. | Some information is temporary session data; selected diagnostic history may be stored locally. |
| Support communications | Your email address, message, screenshots, version details, and any information you voluntarily include | Received when you email support. | Retained in the support mailbox for as long as reasonably needed to respond, investigate, prevent abuse, or keep necessary records. |
Custom backgrounds
Supported uploaded image backgrounds can be saved as local browser data. If a version of Roblox Server Scout allows you to enter a remote media URL, your browser may contact the host of that URL to load the media. That host may receive ordinary network information such as your IP address and browser request headers under its own privacy policy. Roblox Server Scout does not operate those third-party hosts.
Information Roblox Server Scout is not designed to request
Roblox Server Scout is not designed to ask you for your Roblox password, .ROBLOSECURITY cookie, authentication token, two-factor authentication code, payment-card details, or government identification. Do not send this information to support.
Browser permissions and why they are used
How information is used
Roblox Server Scout uses information for the extension’s visible functions, including to:
- Identify the Roblox experience, server, user, item, group, badge, or other object you are viewing.
- Retrieve and display public or session-authorized Roblox information needed by a feature you open.
- Compare servers, estimate routes and latency, label exact versus estimated results, and rank practical candidates.
- Perform Quick Play, Join Best, rejoin, friend, marketplace, profile, and other user-triggered actions.
- Remember settings, themes, backgrounds, saved items, recent lobbies, notes, and watchlists locally.
- Diagnose failed requests, respect service limits, improve stability, and answer support reports.
Information is not used to determine creditworthiness, lending eligibility, or insurance eligibility.
Roblox pages, APIs, and other infrastructure
Roblox services
Version 3.1.11 communicates with Roblox-operated domains, including Roblox web pages and Roblox game, join, users, friends, presence, thumbnails, catalog, groups, badges, inventory, authentication, avatar, economy, asset-delivery, API, and CDN services. Requests may include identifiers relevant to the action, such as place IDs, server/job IDs, user IDs, asset IDs, group IDs, or badge IDs.
Some requests use your existing Roblox browser session where Roblox requires an authenticated action. Roblox Server Scout does not need to display or ask you to copy your Roblox cookie. Roblox receives and handles these requests under Roblox’s own terms and privacy policy.
Packaged region data
Roblox Server Scout includes a packaged location-data file and internal IP/region mappings. These mappings are used locally to interpret server-address information and to label regions. They are not a separate external analytics service.
Roblox Server Scout backend and analytics
As of July 19, 2026, version 3.1.11 does not contain a Roblox Server Scout-operated data-collection backend, analytics SDK, advertising SDK, tracking pixel, or telemetry endpoint. Requests identified in that version are directed to Roblox-operated domains or local packaged resources.
Storage and retention
Local browser storage
Settings, caches, history, notes, favorites, themes, watchlists, and tool data are stored using browser extension local storage. Custom uploaded background media may be stored in IndexedDB. Temporary operational state may be kept in browser session storage or memory and can expire when the session ends.
Local records generally remain until one of the following happens:
- You clear a specific record or use a Roblox Server Scout reset/clear control.
- The extension automatically prunes a cache or temporary session record.
- You clear site or extension data through your browser.
- You uninstall the extension, subject to the browser’s own backup and removal behavior.
Roblox records
Roblox may retain API, account, security, and service records according to Roblox’s own policies. Roblox Server Scout does not control Roblox retention.
Support email
Support messages may be retained as long as reasonably necessary to answer the request, investigate a bug or security report, prevent abuse, and maintain appropriate records. You may ask for deletion of a support conversation, although some information may be retained when necessary for security, legal, or abuse-prevention reasons.
Security
Roblox Server Scout is designed to minimize unnecessary infrastructure by keeping settings and most extension records in the browser and by communicating with Roblox services for Roblox data. The website is static and does not include login forms, payment forms, analytics, or advertising scripts.
No software or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure. Browser extensions operate in a changing browser and website environment, and local data can be affected by browser compromise, malware, shared-device access, browser backup behavior, or vulnerabilities in other software.
Install Roblox Server Scout only from its official Chrome Web Store listing. Do not install copies sent through random direct-download links, and never share Roblox cookies or authentication codes with anyone claiming to provide support.
Children’s privacy
Roblox is used by people of different ages, including children. Roblox Server Scout does not intentionally ask users to create a Roblox Server Scout account or submit their name, age, school, home address, or other personal profile information to use the extension. The extension may process Roblox account identifiers and content visible through Roblox as described above.
Parents and guardians should review the extension, browser permissions, Roblox account settings, and local notes or saved data with younger users. A parent or guardian who believes a child sent personal information to Roblox Server Scout support may contact support@getserverscout.com.
Your choices and controls
- Location: Deny the browser location prompt, use manual location settings, or reset the saved browser location.
- Local records: Use Roblox Server Scout controls to clear recent lobbies, histories, diagnostics, saved tools, notes, themes, backgrounds, and other stored categories.
- Permissions: Review or disable the extension through your browser’s extension-management page.
- Uninstall: Remove Roblox Server Scout through the browser to stop the extension from running.
- Support: Avoid including sensitive information in emails and request deletion of information you voluntarily sent.
Some features will not work when the permission or information required for that feature is unavailable.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated when Roblox Server Scout features, permissions, services, ownership, legal obligations, or data practices change. The “Last updated” date at the top of the page will be revised when material text changes. When practical, significant changes may also be communicated through the extension listing, release notes, or the website.
