We may refuse, reclaim, or remove any handle (username) that

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.

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.

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.

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

the trial or introductory period ends to avoid being charged the

recurring price. Trial eligibility is determined by Apple or Google

their respective policies. We do not directly issue refunds for

We may change Subscription pricing for future billing periods. If we

materially increase the price for an existing Subscription, we will

change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the new price. You can

cancel before the change takes effect to avoid being charged the

new amount.

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:

if the claim qualifies for that court's jurisdiction;

court for actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or

violation of intellectual property rights.

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 [CITY, STATE — to be filled in by

publisher, typically your city of business] 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 **State of [STATE — to

be filled in by publisher]**, U.S.A., 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

[COUNTY, STATE — to be filled in by publisher]. 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.
