Terms of Service

1. The agreement

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and SpellRack LLC("SpellRack," "we," "us") for your use of the SpellRack web service, mobile applications, and APIs (collectively, the "Service"). By creating an account, accessing, or using the Service, you accept these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, don't use the Service.

§13 contains a binding arbitration clause and a class-action waiver. Read it.

2. Eligibility and accounts

• You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you're 13–17, you confirm a parent or guardian has read these Terms and consents.
• You're responsible for activity under your account and for keeping your credentials secure.
• One account per person. No impersonation. No shared accounts.
• We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

3. Acceptable use

You agree NOT to:

• Post unlawful, harassing, defamatory, sexually explicit, or hateful content.
• Post slurs, threats, hate speech, or doxx others in any community feature.
• Spam, scrape at scale, automate beyond rate limits, or abuse free-tier limits via multi-account farms.
• Reverse-engineer, probe, or attempt to breach the Service's security or extract our source code.
• Upload malware, phishing links, or content intended to harm other users.
• Misrepresent ownership of decks or resell SpellRack features as your own.
• Use the Service to violate any third party's intellectual property or other rights.
• Use the Service if you are on a US sanctions list or located in a US-embargoed country.

Violations may result in content removal, account suspension, or permanent ban. Severe violations (illegal activity, harm to others) are reported to appropriate authorities.

4. Subscription, billing, and auto-renewal

Some SpellRack features require a paid subscription ("Premium," "LGS," etc.). By starting a paid subscription you authorize the following:

• Recurring charges: SpellRack will charge your payment method the applicable subscription fee at the start of each billing cycle (monthly or yearly, depending on plan you select) until you cancel.
• Free trial: New Premium subscribers may receive a 30-day free trial. At the end of the trial, your payment method is charged the regular subscription price unless you cancel before the trial ends. Trial terms are disclosed at checkout.
• Price changes: We may change subscription prices with at least 30 days advance notice via email. Continued use after the change takes effect constitutes acceptance.
• Cancellation: Cancel anytime in Settings → Billing. Your subscription remains active until the end of the current billing cycle. We do not require a phone call, retention chat, or any extra steps to cancel.
• Refunds: All sales are final. We do not offer refunds for partial billing periods or unused features, except where required by applicable consumer protection law (e.g., the EU 30-day cooling-off right for digital services that has not been performance-started). To request a legally-required refund, email [email protected].
• Failed payments: If a charge fails, we'll notify you and retry per Stripe's standard schedule. After repeated failures (typically 3 attempts over 21 days) we may downgrade you to the free tier.
• Taxes: Prices exclude taxes unless stated. We collect sales tax where required by your jurisdiction (handled by Stripe Tax).

4a. Founder's Lifetime tier (one-time purchase)

The "Founder's Lifetime" tier is a one-time, non-recurring purchase (currently $199 USD) offered to the first 500 customers and capped at that quantity. By purchasing Founder's Lifetime you agree to the following terms in addition to the general billing terms above:

• Service-life, not buyer-life: "Lifetime" means the operational lifetime of the SpellRack service, not the buyer's biological lifetime. We make no guarantee that SpellRack will operate for any specific minimum duration.
• Non-transferable: The Founder benefit attaches to the original purchasing account and may not be sold, gifted, or transferred to another account.
• No refunds after 7 days: Because Founder's Lifetime grants permanent access on purchase, it is generally non-refundable. We will, however, honor a full refund within 7 days of purchase if you have not used Premium features beyond account creation. After 7 days, all sales final except where required by applicable consumer-protection law.
• Service-shutdown remediation: If SpellRack discontinues the service within 12 months of your Founder purchase, we will issue a prorated refund equal to the unused portion of one calendar year ($199 × (365 − days_used) ÷ 365). After 12 months from purchase no refund is owed on shutdown. This caps our liability to the equivalent of one prepaid year regardless of when shutdown occurs.
• Feature parity: Founders receive every Premium feature now and every Premium feature added in the future. Features explicitly marketed as add-on-only or LGS-tier-only (e.g., store dashboards) are not included.
• Founder badge: Founder accounts display a Founder badge on their public profile and decks for as long as the account remains in good standing.
• Termination for cause: We may revoke Founder benefits without refund if the account is terminated for severe violations of the Acceptable Use Policy (fraud, harassment, chargeback abuse, etc.) per Section 15.

5. User content and license

• You retain ownership of decks, deck names, descriptions, pod chat, game notes, and feedback you create ("User Content").
• You grant SpellRack a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, modify (for technical formatting), display, and distribute your User Content as needed to operate the Service. This license terminates when you delete the content or your account, except as needed for backups, fraud prevention, or legal compliance.
• You are solely responsible for your User Content. Don't post what you don't have rights to share.
• We may remove User Content that violates these Terms or applicable law without notice.
• Public feedback license: feedback you mark as public is licensed to other users to read, comment on, and reference. You waive any moral rights in such feedback to the extent permitted by law.

6. Local game store listings and affiliate links

SpellRack links to third-party local game stores and online retailers. We don't operate these stores, don't guarantee prices or availability, and links may include affiliate tracking that pays us a commission on qualifying purchases (see our Privacy Policy §10). Confirm everything on the retailer's site before buying.

7. Magic: The Gathering trademarks

SpellRack is unofficial fan content permitted under the Wizards of the Coast Fan Content Policy. SpellRack is not approved, endorsed, or affiliated with Wizards of the Coast. Portions of the materials used are property of Wizards of the Coast. ©Wizards of the Coast LLC. Card names, card images, and mana-symbol iconography are trademarks of their respective owners. Card data and images are sourced from Scryfall under their terms.

8. SpellRack intellectual property

The SpellRack name, logo, software, design, copy, and the Service itself are owned by SpellRack LLC. We grant you a personal, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for its intended purpose. No other rights are granted. Don't copy, modify, or create derivative works of the Service without our written permission.

9. Third-party services

The Service uses third-party providers including Stripe (payments), Discord (OAuth), Anthropic (AI), Scryfall (card data), EDHREC (synergy data), Cloudflare (CDN), and others listed in the Privacy Policy. Each has its own terms; using them via SpellRack does not change that.

10. DMCA and copyright

We respect copyright. To submit a DMCA takedown notice or counter-notice, see our DMCA Policy. Repeat infringers' accounts are terminated.

11. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. We don't guarantee the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for your particular use. Card prices and store inventory data are unofficial and may be stale. Deckbuilding recommendations are suggestions, not guaranteed to be format-legal or optimal.

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL SPELLRACK LLC OR ITS OFFICERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF WE WERE ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM THE SERVICE IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (a) USD $100, OR (b) THE TOTAL FEES YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. Some jurisdictions don't allow the exclusion of certain warranties or limitation of certain damages — those exclusions may not apply to you.

13. Mandatory arbitration and class-action waiver

READ THIS CAREFULLY — IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

Except for disputes that qualify for small-claims court and except for either party's right to seek injunctive relief in court for misuse of intellectual property, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising from or related to these Terms or the Service (each a "Dispute") shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration, not in court, on an individual basis.

• Arbitration provider: American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The AAA Rules are available at adr.org/Rules.
• Location: arbitration shall take place in Knox County, Tennessee, or another mutually-agreed location, or by videoconference.
• Class-action waiver: YOU AND SPELLRACK AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims or preside over a class proceeding.
• Costs: SpellRack will pay AAA filing fees and arbitrator fees for consumer-initiated arbitrations under $10,000 in claimed damages.
• 30-day opt-out: you may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing [email protected]within 30 days of first accepting these Terms with the subject "Arbitration Opt-Out". Opting out does not affect the rest of the Terms.
• Federal Arbitration Act: this clause is governed by the FAA (9 U.S.C. §§ 1–16) and shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless SpellRack LLC, its officers, members, employees, and agents from any claim, demand, loss, liability, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from (a) your User Content, (b) your use or misuse of the Service, (c) your violation of these Terms, or (d) your violation of any third party's rights or applicable law. We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense of any matter subject to indemnification, in which case you'll cooperate with us at your expense.

15. Termination

You may delete your account anytime in Settings. Deletion removes your decks, collection, watchlists, pod memberships, game records, and feedback (subject to retention schedule in the Privacy Policy). We may suspend or terminate your account for any violation of these Terms; for material violations we'll try to give notice unless the violation is severe (e.g., harassment, illegal activity, fraud). Termination doesn't entitle you to a refund of unused subscription time except as stated in §4.

16. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. Material changes get an in-app banner and email notice at least 30 days before they take effect. Continued use after changes take effect means you accept them. If you don't accept changes, your only remedy is to stop using the Service and (if applicable) cancel your subscription.

17. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee, USA, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Subject to §13 (Arbitration), the exclusive venue for any Dispute that may be brought in court (e.g., small-claims actions and equitable relief for IP misuse) is the state or federal courts located in Knox County, Tennessee, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there.

18. Miscellaneous

• Entire agreement: these Terms plus the Privacy Policy and DMCA Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and SpellRack.
• Severability: if any provision is held unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
• No waiver: our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
• Assignment: you may not assign your rights under these Terms without our written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
• Force majeure: we are not liable for delays or failures due to events beyond our reasonable control (natural disasters, internet outages, government action, labor disputes, etc.).
• Headings: section headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.
• Notices: legal notices to SpellRack should be sent to [email protected] or by certified mail to 116 Agnes Rd, Ste 200, Knoxville, TN 37919, USA. We may notify you via email to your account address or via in-app banner.
