Terms of Service

Last updated: 2026-09-24

Who you're dealing with

Binder Boss is operated by Dead Center Studios LLC, a limited liability company formed in the State of New York, United States. Throughout these Terms, “we”, “us” and “our” mean Dead Center Studios LLC. You can reach us at admin@deadcenterstudios.com.

Plain-English version

Binder Boss is an independent, fan-made tool to track your Pokémon TCG collection. Use it as much as you like. We try to keep it working, but we provide it as-is. If something breaks, please tell us, but we're not liable for damages. Don't use it to break the law or harm others. Pokémon and TCG trademarks belong to their respective owners.

Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old (or 16 where required, e.g. in the EEA) to create an account. If you're under 18, you may only use Binder Boss with a parent or guardian's consent, and subscriptions must be purchased by an adult.

Acceptable use

  • Use for personal collection tracking. Commercial use OK at any tier.
  • Don't attempt to circumvent rate limits, abuse the catalog ingest, or otherwise stress the infrastructure beyond a single user's reasonable consumption.
  • Don't use Binder Boss to facilitate fraud, harassment, or violation of law.
  • Don't scrape, reverse-engineer, or redistribute the catalog data for commercial purposes outside the spirit of personal-use collection tracking.

Subscription terms (Pro)

  • Pro is billed monthly or annually via Stripe. Cancel anytime via Stripe Customer Portal or by emailing us; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period.
  • Free trial: your first Pro subscription starts with a 14‑day free trial. Each account gets one free trial; if you have subscribed before, Pro starts on payment. You give a payment method at checkout, and you are not charged during the trial. When the trial ends, the plan you chose (monthly or annual) is charged to that payment method and renews from then on, unless you cancel before the trial ends. If you cancel during the trial, you are not charged, and Pro ends when the trial does.
  • Pro features activate as soon as checkout completes, including during a free trial. If a payment fails, you have a 7-day grace period before features revert to Free.
  • Refunds: pro-rata refunds available within 14 days of charge, email us with the reason.
  • Price changes get 30 days' notice via email; existing subscribers keep their old price until renewal.

Your content & published binders

  • Your collection data is yours. We claim no ownership over your binders, notes, or photos.
  • If you publish a binder, you grant us a non-exclusive license to display it (with your chosen username) at its public link until you unpublish. You're responsible for names/descriptions you make public.
  • We may remove published content that is unlawful, infringing, or abusive. Report problematic content to admin@deadcenterstudios.com.

Photos & AI features

  • Photo identification and AI suggestions are optional and consent-gated. Photos you submit are processed once to identify the cards in them (by our AI provider, Anthropic, and by Scrydex's card-image matching service), stored privately, and auto-deleted within 7 days.
  • Photo identification is best-effort, so always review matches before adding. We're not liable for misidentified cards.

Ending your account (suspension & termination)

  • You can stop using Binder Boss at any time. You can delete your account, and with it your cloud data, yourself from /app/data, and clear your local data from the same page (the Privacy Policy explains what each removes).
  • We may suspend or terminate an account that breaks the acceptable-use rules above (for example abuse, infringement, or attacks on the infrastructure), or where we're required to by law.
  • Where it's reasonable to do so, we'll tell you why first, give you a chance to put it right, and give you time to export your data.
  • If we terminate an account with an active paid subscription for a reason that isn't your breach, we refund the unused portion.

Reporting content or IP complaints

Users can publish binder pages to public profiles. If you believe something published on Binder Boss infringes your rights, email admin@deadcenterstudios.com with the URL, what the material is, your relationship to the rights, and how to reach you. We remove or disable access to material that we determine is infringing, and we may terminate accounts that repeatedly infringe. If you think your content was removed in error, reply to the same address and we will review it. Full details, including what a notice must contain and how to file a counter-notice, are in our Copyright Policy.

No warranty

The service is provided as-is, without warranty of any kind. We don't guarantee uninterrupted availability, accuracy of card data (sourced from a third-party API), or fitness for any particular purpose. Your collection is YOUR record, so export it regularly.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Binder Boss is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the service. Our total liability in any case is capped at the amount you've paid us in the previous 12 months (which, for Free users, is $0).

Trademarks

Pokémon, Pokémon TCG, Pokémon names, card images, and all related marks are property of The Pokémon Company International, Nintendo, Game Freak, and Creatures Inc. Binder Boss is a fan-made tool with no official affiliation, endorsement, or sponsorship from any of these companies.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms over time. Material changes get 30 days' notice via email and a banner in the app. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York. Disputes are resolved in the courts of the State of New York.
