The Daily Rip

Terms of Service

Effective date: 2026-06-04

IMPORTANT: SECTION 18 CONTAINS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER. READ IT CAREFULLY. BY USING THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO RESOLVE DISPUTES BY INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT, AND YOU WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. SECTION 18 ALSO EXPLAINS HOW TO OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION WITHIN 30 DAYS OF ACCEPTING THESE TERMS.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and The Daily Rip (referred to as "we", "us", or "our"). They govern your access to and use of:

By creating an account, downloading the app, or otherwise accessing the Service, you confirm you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. Eligibility

The Service is intended for personal, non-commercial use by collectors and hobbyists. By using it, you represent that:

If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms, in which case "you" refers to that organization.

2. Your Account

To access most features you must create an account. You agree to:

We may refuse, reclaim, or remove any handle (username) that infringes a trademark, impersonates another person, or violates these Terms. One person, one account; we may suspend duplicate accounts created to evade our limits or rules.

3. Description of the Service

The Daily Rip aggregates publicly observable price and sales data related to trading cards (primarily Pokémon) and presents it to collectors via a mobile app and web interface. Features may include price charts, a watchlist, a portfolio tracker, a sales feed, an AI assistant, push notifications, public profiles, and other tools.

The specific features available to you depend on your subscription tier and may change over time. We do not guarantee that any particular feature will remain available.

4. Subscriptions, Billing, and Automatic Renewal

The Service offers free, Pro, and Insider subscription tiers. Paid tiers ("Subscriptions") are billed through:

We do not directly process payment information. Subscription pricing, billing periods, and renewal terms are presented to you at the point of purchase before you confirm.

Current tier pricing (subject to change as described in Section 4.4):

4.1 Automatic renewal — important disclosure

Your Subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing period at the then-current price for the same Subscription length unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple ID or Google account will be charged for the renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.

You can manage and cancel your Subscription at any time through your Apple App Store or Google Play Store subscription settings on your device. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period; you continue to have access to the paid tier until that date.

California residents: Pursuant to California Business & Professions Code § 17602, you may cancel your Subscription at any time without penalty by following the cancellation instructions above. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period. The information required to be disclosed by California's Automatic Renewal Law is set forth in this Section 4.

4.2 Free trials and introductory offers

If we offer a free trial or introductory price, you must cancel before the trial or introductory period ends to avoid being charged the recurring price. Trial eligibility is determined by Apple or Google and may be limited to one trial per user per platform.

4.3 Refunds

Subscription refund requests are handled by Apple or Google under their respective policies. We do not directly issue refunds for purchases made through their platforms. To request a refund:

4.4 Price changes

We may change Subscription pricing for future billing periods. If we materially increase the price for an existing Subscription, we will notify you in advance and your continued use of the Service after the change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the new price. You can cancel before the change takes effect to avoid being charged the new amount.

4.5 Failed payments

If your payment method fails or your Subscription cannot be renewed, we may downgrade your account to the free tier. Your data is preserved.

5. User Content

5.1 What is User Content

"User Content" means any content you submit to the Service, including but not limited to: profile information (handle, display name, avatar, bio), photos of cards you own, AI assistant prompts, alert thresholds, holdings, watchlist entries, owned-card lists, and any text or media you post on a public profile.

5.2 License to us

By submitting User Content, you grant The Daily Rip a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, sublicensable, and transferable license to host, store, reproduce, display, modify (only to the extent reasonably necessary to operate the Service — e.g., resizing images), distribute, and create derivative works of your User Content solely for the purpose of providing, improving, and promoting the Service. This license terminates when you delete the relevant User Content from the Service, except (a) cached or archival copies that may persist on third-party services beyond our control and (b) non-identifying aggregate or de-identified data derived from your User Content.

5.3 Your responsibility

You retain ownership of your User Content. You represent and warrant that:

5.4 What we don't allow

You may not submit User Content that:

We may, but are not obligated to, monitor User Content. We reserve the right to remove any User Content that we determine, in our sole discretion, violates these Terms or is otherwise objectionable, with or without notice.

13. Apple-Specific Terms (iOS users only)

If you accessed the Service via the Apple App Store, the following additional terms apply, and supplement (do not replace) the rest of these Terms:

14. DMCA / Copyright Takedown Notice

We respect intellectual property rights and respond to valid notices of alleged infringement under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. § 512.

15. Termination

You may terminate your account at any time from the in-app profile screen. Termination by you triggers permanent deletion of your User Content from our active systems within 30 days, except as described in our Privacy Policy.

We may suspend or terminate your account, or restrict your access to any part of the Service, at any time, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, used the Service to harm others or our systems, engaged in fraudulent or illegal activity, or otherwise pose a risk to us or other users.

16. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION:

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. In such jurisdictions, the exclusions in this Section apply only to the extent permitted by law.

17. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE DAILY RIP, ITS AFFILIATES, OR ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR CONTRACTORS BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY:

REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US$100).

The exclusions and limitations in this Section apply to the maximum extent permitted by law, even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations of liability, so portions of this Section may not apply to you. In such jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

18. Mandatory Arbitration; Class Action Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

18.1 Agreement to arbitrate

You and we agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Service, our Privacy Policy, or the relationship between you and us (a "Dispute") will be resolved by binding individual arbitration rather than in court, except that:

18.2 Procedure

The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (or by such other established arbitration service as the parties may mutually agree). The arbitration will be held in the United States at a location mutually agreed by the parties, or by video, at the arbitrator's discretion. The arbitrator's decision will be final and binding. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

The Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section.

18.3 Class action waiver

YOU AND WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. If this waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 18 shall be null and void, and the Dispute will proceed in court under Section 19.

18.4 Right to opt out

You have 30 days from the date you first accept these Terms to opt out of arbitration, by sending a written notice to support@thedailyrip.app with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out" and including your name, the email address associated with your account, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of the arbitration agreement. If you opt out, neither you nor we will be bound by the arbitration agreement in this Section 18 with respect to disputes between us; instead, Section 19 applies.

18.5 Survival

This Section 18 survives termination of your account and these Terms.

19. Governing Law and Jurisdiction (for non-arbitration matters)

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. For any Dispute that, under Section 18, is allowed to proceed in court, you and we consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Miami-Dade County, Florida. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

20. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless The Daily Rip, its affiliates, and its directors, officers, employees, and agents, from and against any claim, demand, loss, liability, damage, cost, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to:

We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, and you agree to cooperate with our defense.

21. International Users

The Service is operated from the United States. If you use the Service from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.

If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with specific consumer protection laws, you may have additional rights under those laws (including statutory warranty rights). Nothing in these Terms is intended to override non-waivable rights you have under applicable consumer protection laws.

22. General Provisions

22.1 Entire agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any policies or notices we publish in the Service, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements.

22.2 Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect (subject to Section 18.3 regarding the class action waiver).

22.3 No waiver

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that right or provision.

22.4 Assignment

You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights or obligations under them without our prior written consent. We may freely assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, change of control, or by operation of law.

22.5 Force majeure

We are not liable for failure to perform any obligation under these Terms to the extent that performance is delayed or prevented by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, labor disputes, internet or telecommunications failures, supplier or third-party service failures, or pandemics.

22.6 No partnership

Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, fiduciary, or employment relationship between you and us.

22.7 Headings

Section headings are for convenience only and have no legal effect.

22.8 Notices

Notices to you may be sent by email to the address associated with your account or by posting in the Service. Notices to us must be sent to support@thedailyrip.app unless these Terms specify a different method (e.g., DMCA notices in Section 14, arbitration opt-outs in Section 18.4).

23. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you in advance through the Service or by email and will update the "Effective date" at the top. Material changes take effect no sooner than 30 days after notice (or such shorter period as required by law). Your continued use of the Service after the new Terms take effect constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree to the new Terms, you must stop using the Service and may delete your account.
