Terms of Use
Effective date: July 24, 2026
These Terms of Use (the "Terms") are a binding agreement between you and The Daily Rip ("we," "us," or "our") governing your use of The Daily Rip mobile application and the website thedailyrip.app (together, the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy and Community Guidelines, which are part of these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. What the Service is — and is not
The Daily Rip is a market-information and community app for trading-card collectors. It shows prices, charts, and sales records for collectible cards, lets you track a collection, and provides community features.
The Service is not a marketplace. You cannot buy, sell, or trade cards through the Service, and using the Service — including chat — to arrange, solicit, or negotiate purchases, sales, or trades is prohibited and grounds for account termination. Links to third-party marketplaces open on those marketplaces, whose own terms apply.
Not financial advice. All prices, charts, indexes, valuations, and estimates in the Service are provided for informational purposes only, may be inaccurate, incomplete, or delayed, and are not investment, financial, tax, or legal advice or a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold anything. Collectibles are volatile and illiquid. You alone are responsible for your decisions.
2. Eligibility and accounts
- You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum digital-consent age in your jurisdiction) to use the Service, and at least 18 to purchase a subscription.
- You are responsible for your account credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately of unauthorized use.
- Provide accurate information and one account per person. Handles that impersonate others or infringe rights may be reclaimed.
- You can delete your account at any time in the app (Me → Settings → Delete account) or by emailing support@thedailyrip.app.
3. Subscriptions and billing
- The Service offers optional auto-renewing monthly subscriptions: Pro at $9.99/month and Insider at $24.99/month (USD; local prices may vary). Feature comparisons are shown in the app and on our pricing page.
- Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase through the App Store. We never receive your payment card details.
- Subscriptions renew automatically each month at the then-current price unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; renewal is charged within 24 hours before the new period begins.
- Manage or cancel anytime in your device Settings → your name → Subscriptions. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; fees already paid are non-refundable except as required by law or granted by Apple. Refund requests are handled by Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com.
- If a price changes, you will be notified in accordance with App Store rules and may cancel before the change takes effect.
- Any free trial or promotional period, if offered, converts to a paid subscription unless cancelled before the trial ends.
4. User content and conduct
"User Content" means anything you post to the Service — profile details, photos, messages, chat posts, and reactions.
- Your license to us. You retain ownership of your User Content. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, display, reproduce, and distribute it solely to operate, moderate, and improve the Service. The license ends when you delete the content or your account, except for content already shared with others (for example, messages in a room) and backups kept for a limited time.
- You are responsible for your User Content and must have the rights to post it.
- Zero tolerance for objectionable content and abuse. We do not tolerate objectionable content or abusive users. Prohibited content includes: solicitation of purchases, sales, or trades; scams or fraud; harassment, hate, or threats; sexually explicit content; violence or the promotion of illegal acts; spam; malware or phishing; other people's personal information; and content that infringes intellectual-property rights. The full rules are in our Community Guidelines.
- Moderation. We use automated filters (for example, messages containing payment-service solicitation are blocked before delivery) and human review of reports. Every message can be reported in the app and every user can be blocked. We act on objectionable-content reports within 24 hours, including removing content and ejecting the offending user where warranted. We may remove any content or restrict, suspend, or terminate any account that violates these Terms at any time, with or without notice.
5. Prohibited uses of the Service
- No scraping, harvesting, bulk-exporting, reselling, or redistributing the Service's data or content, and no building a competing dataset or data feed from it.
- No reverse engineering, interfering with, or circumventing security or rate limits.
- No automated access except through interfaces we expressly provide.
- No use of the Service for money laundering, market manipulation, or any unlawful purpose.
6. Intellectual property; third-party marks
The Service, including its software, design, text, and data compilations, is owned by us or our licensors and protected by law. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app on Apple devices you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Terms of Service. Card names, set names, player names, grading-company names, and marketplace names appear in the Service solely to identify the items and services they refer to. The Daily Rip is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Nintendo, The Pokémon Company, any sports league or players association, any grading company, or any marketplace. All trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
If you believe content in the Service infringes your copyright, email support@thedailyrip.app with the details required by the DMCA; we respond to valid notices, and repeat infringers' accounts are terminated.
7. Third-party services and data
The Service displays data from licensed market-data partners and public marketplace records and links to third-party sites and marketplaces. We are not responsible for third-party sites, their content, or their terms. Data may contain errors or gaps and may be changed or discontinued.
8. Disclaimers
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DATA WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE.
9. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE — INCLUDING DECISIONS MADE IN RELIANCE ON DATA IN THE SERVICE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF $50 OR THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
10. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims arising out of your User Content, your use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.
11. Apple-specific terms
- These Terms are between you and us only — not with Apple. Apple has no obligation to furnish maintenance or support for the app and is not responsible for the app or its content.
- In the event of any failure of the app to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price of the app (if any); to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation.
- Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims relating to the app, including product liability, regulatory, or IP claims.
- You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. government embargo and are not on any U.S. government restricted-party list.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
- The App Store's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement applies to the extent it is not inconsistent with these Terms.
12. Termination
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access immediately for violations of these Terms or to protect the Service or its users. Sections that by their nature should survive (including 4-11 and 13) survive termination.
13. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state of our principal place of business, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Before filing a claim, contact us at support@thedailyrip.app — most issues can be resolved informally. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought in the state or federal courts of that state, and you consent to their jurisdiction.
14. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be announced in the app or by email before they take effect. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
