## About

Video game developer and publisher known for RuneScape and Old School RuneScape

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria, verified by a community member in February 2026 across all three major Syrian ISPs. The team contacted Jagex in April 2026, but the company's data-protection mailbox returned only a generic automated reply that handles privacy requests and may not respond to access inquiries. No substantive response has followed, and the block remains in place.

## Official timeline

- 2026-04-11 — Company Responded. Jagex's Data Protection Officer mailbox responded to the unblocking request via an automated email from DPO@jagex.com. The response is a generic auto-reply focused on data privacy and GDPR requests, not specific to our Syria access inquiry. It confirmed receipt but noted that the DPO mailbox only handles data privacy issues, and non-privacy enquiries may not receive a response. The response appears to be an automated acknowledgment rather than a human review.
- 2026-04-11 — Contacted Company. Official outreach email sent to dpo@jagex.com requesting review of Syria IP restrictions under the current OFAC and BIS framework.

## Community reports

- 2026-02-11 — Verified. Community member verified that Jagex's website is completely blocked in Syria. Tested across all three major ISPs (MTN, Syriatel, and ADSL) — the site doesn't load on any of them.

## Context

These are geo-restrictions the companies applied themselves, not filtering by Syrian ISPs and not a legal requirement. US and EU sanctions on Syria were lifted in 2025. See https://unblocksyria.com/llms.txt for the regulatory summary and https://unblocksyria.com/en/about for citations to the specific orders and regulations.
