Terms of Service

Effective date: Oct 23, 2026

Welcome to RiftHunt. These terms explain the deal for using the website, the API and the Discord bot. They're written to be read, not skimmed past, so they're kept short. By using any part of RiftHunt, you're agreeing to them.

The basics

What these terms cover. "RiftHunt" here means the website at rifthunt.com (including its subdomains such as images.rifthunt.com and the tagger), the card data API, and the Discord bot. "We" and "us" refer to the people who run RiftHunt.

Free to use. RiftHunt doesn't charge for anything. Searching, browsing, the API and the bot all work without signing in. A login is only needed if you want to add community tags with the tagger.

It's a fan project. RiftHunt is unofficial Fan Content permitted under Riot Games' Legal Jibber Jabber policy. Riot Games hasn't approved or endorsed it. RiftHunt is a TCGplayer affiliate, which is explained further down.

Privacy. What information RiftHunt collects and how it's used is explained in the Privacy Policy, which is part of these terms.

Age. You need to be at least 13 to use RiftHunt. Discord has its own minimum age for using the bot.

Ground rules

RiftHunt is built for players, collectors and developers who want Riftbound card information. Use it for that and you'll be fine. Please don't:

Hammer the site, API, image server or bot with traffic, or try to break, hack or overload any of them
Scrape the website's pages when the API and its bulk downloads already give you the same data
Present RiftHunt, or anything you build with its data, as official Riot Games material or as endorsed by Riot, TCGplayer or Discord
Use RiftHunt to break the law or someone else's rights

If someone ignores these rules, we can respond however makes sense, including warning them, throttling or blocking their traffic, removing their tags, suspending or closing their tagger account, cutting off the bot in their server, or reporting illegal activity. We can also limit or end anyone's access when we think it's needed to protect RiftHunt or the people who use it. Spot something that shouldn't be happening? Let us know at [email protected].

The API

The API is open to anyone, needs no key, and can be used in any project, commercial ones included. The API guide covers how it works; here's what's expected in return.

Play nice with the servers. There's no enforced rate limit, so it relies on good behaviour. Stay below roughly 10 requests per second, pause between calls in loops, and grab the bulk export rather than crawling card by card once you need more than a few hundred. Download the full card file no more than daily, follow the cache headers, and set a User-Agent naming your project so we can get in touch if there's a problem. Clients that cause trouble may be slowed down or blocked.

The data is yours to build with. What RiftHunt adds on top of Riot's cards (IDs, search, community tags, price snapshots and the JSON format) can be used for anything. Credit or a link back is welcome but optional. Just don't pass the dataset off as your own creation or as an official Riot source.

Riot's rules travel with the cards. Card names, text and art are Riot Games' property. Anything you build inherits the same Legal Jibber Jabber conditions RiftHunt operates under, and staying within them is your responsibility.

About the TCGplayer links. Card and price data includes TCGplayer affiliate links, and RiftHunt receives a commission on purchases made through them. That income is what pays for the free API. Feel free to keep those links in your app, or create your own from the tcg_id field. What's not okay is keeping a link labelled as RiftHunt's while quietly swapping in someone else's affiliate code.

Expect change. Breaking changes are avoided where possible, but endpoints and fields can be added, changed or removed, and the API could be paused or retired.

The Discord bot

The Discord bot posts card details when someone types a card name inside {{double braces}} or [[square brackets]].

Adding it to a server. Only someone with Manage Server permission can invite the bot. If that's you, you're confirming you have the right to add it and that your members are aware it reads messages in channels it can access so it can find card requests. It asks only for what it needs to read and reply in text channels. Kicking it from the server removes it.

What it does with messages. It scans them for card requests and nothing else. Messages aren't saved, histories aren't kept and no one is profiled. The Privacy Policy goes into detail.

Fair use. Don't spam with it, don't try to dodge the ten-card-per-message cap, and don't target it or the API behind it. Servers or users that misuse it may be blocked.

Discord's terms still apply. Using Discord means following Discord's Terms of Service and Community Guidelines. The bot runs under Discord's developer terms. RiftHunt has no control over Discord itself.

No guarantees. The bot is free, and it may go offline, slow down, change or be retired at any point.

The tagger

The tagger lets people label cards with community tags: function tags describing what a card does, and art tags describing what its artwork shows. Anyone can see and search tags. Adding them requires signing in.

Signing in. You can log in with email, Discord or Google. Logins are handled by Clerk, a third-party authentication service, so your password and sign-in credentials stay with Clerk and are never stored by RiftHunt. Clerk's own terms apply to the sign-in step, and the Privacy Policy explains what RiftHunt receives.

Your account, your responsibility. Keep your login secure and don't share it. Tags added through your account are treated as yours. Please keep to one account per person, and don't open new accounts to get around a suspension.

What happens to tags you add. Tags become part of RiftHunt's shared dataset. By adding one, you allow RiftHunt to store, display, edit, combine and distribute it worldwide at no cost, including to anyone using the API, and that permission continues after your account is closed. Tags may be shown with your display name as the creator.

Tagging guidelines. Tags should be accurate and relevant to the card. Don't add offensive, misleading or spam tags, and don't use scripts or bots to tag in bulk.

Moderation. We may edit, merge or remove any tag, and suspend or close tagger accounts, to keep the dataset useful.

Closing your account. Email [email protected] to have your tagger account deleted. Tags you added may remain in the dataset without your name attached.

Cards, prices and ownership

Riot's property. Riftbound, League of Legends and every card name, piece of rules text, artwork and image belong to Riot Games, Inc. RiftHunt displays them as fan content, and these terms don't give you any rights to them. If Riot asks for something to be changed or taken down, it will be.

RiftHunt's property. The RiftHunt name, site design, code, search syntax and written content belong to us. The data and API are available as described above, but please don't clone the site.

Prices are a guide, not a quote. Prices come from TCGplayer's market data, updated about once a day. They may lag behind or be inaccurate, so always confirm the price and availability on the store before buying.

How RiftHunt pays its bills. TCGplayer links on the site, in the API and posted by the bot are affiliate links. When you buy through one, RiftHunt gets a commission and you pay nothing extra. Card pages may also link to Cardmarket. RiftHunt doesn't run ads.

Legality and rulings are for reference. Card pages and the bot may show format legality, and card pages may include rulings collected from external sources. Both are provided as a convenience: they can be incomplete, out of date or wrong, and they aren't official. For sanctioned play, the event organiser and Riot's official rules always take precedence.

Other sites, other rules. TCGplayer, Cardmarket, Discord, Google and Clerk are independent services. Whatever you buy, sign up for or share on them is governed by their terms, not ours.

Copyright concerns. If you think something on RiftHunt infringes your copyright, email [email protected] with the page URL, what work you believe is being infringed, how to reach you, and a statement that you own it (or are authorised to act for the owner) and believe in good faith the use isn't permitted. Valid notices are handled under the DMCA.

Responsibility and liability

RiftHunt is a free fan resource, and these terms reflect what a free service can realistically promise.

No warranties. RiftHunt comes without guarantees of any kind. Card data is entered by hand and can contain mistakes, prices can be out of date, rulings come from outside sources, community tags are added by users, and the site, API, tagger or bot may be slow, unavailable or changed without warning.

Limits on liability. We aren't liable for losses or damages that result from using RiftHunt, or from not being able to use it, including losses tied to inaccurate card data or prices, downtime or bugs. Where the law allows a cap, our total liability for anything related to RiftHunt is US$100. Some places don't allow these limits; in those places they apply only as far as the law permits.

Your responsibility. If a claim is made against us because of something you built on the API, how you used the bot, tags you added, or your breaking these terms or Riot's policies, you agree to defend us and cover the resulting costs.

Riot Games isn't a party to this. Riot isn't responsible for RiftHunt and makes no promises about it. Any dispute about RiftHunt is between you and us.

Applicable law. These terms are governed by the laws of the United States. If something goes wrong, please email us first so we can try to sort it out directly.

Updates to these terms

These terms may be revised as RiftHunt changes. The effective date at the top always shows the latest version, and significant changes will be announced on the site before they apply. Continuing to use RiftHunt after an update means you accept the revised terms.
