PokeGrade Terms of Service

Last Updated: May 21, 2025

Welcome, Trainer! Before you start your grading journey with PokeGrade, please take a moment to review these Terms of Service — think of them as your Trainer's Manual for using our platform. By accessing or using PokeGrade, you agree to follow these rules so everyone in the region has a fair and safe experience.

Using Our Services (a.k.a. Playing by the Rules)

PokeGrade gives you AI-powered Pokémon card grading — like having a high-tech Pokédex for your collection! By using our services, you agree to:

  • Enter true and accurate info when creating your Trainer account
  • Use the platform only for real Pokémon card grading — no shady tricks or missingno nonsense
  • Keep things fair and avoid tampering with our grading algorithms
  • Respect our intellectual property — don't copy, clone, or try to catch our code

Submitting Your Cards (a.k.a. Trainer Upload Policy)

When you upload card images to PokeGrade:

  • You're still the proud owner of your original images
  • You give us permission to analyze those images using our grading engine
  • You can opt in to share your graded cards in public Trainer galleries
  • You promise you have the rights to the images you upload (i.e., they're not someone else's rare pulls)

Important Limitations (a.k.a. Know Your PokéLimits)

Just like a Pokédex isn't a replacement for a real Professor, PokeGrade is meant to be a helpful guide — not an official grading authority. That means:

  • Our AI grading is for informational purposes only
  • It's not a certified substitute for professional grading companies
  • Don't make big trading or buying decisions solely based on our grades — consider us one of your many tools on your collector journey
  • We can't be held responsible for outcomes based on your use of our grades

Evolving the Platform (a.k.a. Service Changes)

Sometimes we need to tweak features or even take a break from battling bugs. We may:

  • Update, change, or temporarily disable parts of PokeGrade
  • Do so with or without notice
  • Not be held liable if those changes affect your usage

Legal Stuff (a.k.a. The Final Badge)

These terms are governed by the laws of the applicable region (a.k.a. real-world legal stuff). Any disputes will be handled according to those rules — no Elite Four challenges here.
