Terms of Use (HOC)

House of Collectors · Last updated 10 November 2026

These terms are the agreement between you and SaberTheory B.V. ("we", "us") for using the House of Collectors app and its services ("the app"). By creating an account or using the app you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the app. Please also read our Privacy Policy (https://houseofcollector.com/pages/privacy), which explains how your information is handled.

1. What the app does

House of Collectors lets you scan trading cards with your camera, look up their prices, keep a collection, set price alerts and get an estimated grade. Parts of it use automatic reading (including AI), so results can contain mistakes.

2. Your account

• You need an account to keep a collection. Keep your sign-in secure; you are responsible for what happens under your account.
• You must be at least 16 years old, or have a parent or guardian's permission.
• You can delete your account at any time in the app (Profile, then Delete account). This permanently deletes your data and cannot be undone.

3. Plans, subscriptions and free trials

• The app has a free plan and paid plans (Base and Pro) with different limits, shown on the plan screen. We may change a plan's features or limits for the future, and will not reduce what you have already paid for during the current period.
• Paid plans are subscriptions bought through the Apple App Store. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account when you confirm the purchase, or after a free trial ends. Apple's terms for purchases apply.
• A subscription renews automatically for the same period at the then-current price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it in your iPhone's Settings, under your Apple ID, then Subscriptions. Deleting the app or your account does not cancel a subscription.
• New subscribers may get a free trial (for example 7 days). If you do not cancel before it ends, it turns into a paid subscription. A free trial can be used once.
• Refunds are handled by Apple under its own policy; we cannot issue them ourselves. Use Apple's "Report a problem" page.
• If you subscribed on another device, "Restore purchases" on the plan screen gets your plan back.

4. Prices, grades and other information are estimates

• Prices come from recorded sales and other sources and are estimates of what a card has sold for. They are not offers, valuations, or a guarantee of what you can sell or buy for. We are not a broker and nothing in the app is financial, investment or tax advice.
• Grade estimates, centering measurements and condition notes are our own estimates from your photos. They are not an official grade from any grading company and may differ from it. Do not rely on them alone when buying, selling, insuring or submitting a card.
• Scans and card matches can be wrong. Check the card before you rely on a result or add it to your collection.

5. Using the app properly

You agree not to:

• break the law, or use the app to infringe anyone's rights;
• try to get around limits, copy or scrape the app's data at scale, resell access, or use bots or scripts against the service;
• attack, overload, probe or try to break into the app, its servers or other people's accounts;
• upload pictures you have no right to use, or anything unlawful or harmful;
• reverse engineer the app, except where the law allows it regardless of this term.

We may limit or suspend access if these terms are broken or the service is being abused.

6. Your content

You keep ownership of your pictures and your collection data. You give us permission to process them as needed to run the app for you, as described in the Privacy Policy. If you switch on "Help train our grading", you also allow us to keep the straightened card pictures and your corrections to improve our own grading.

7. Intellectual property and trademarks

• The app, its design and its software belong to us or our licensors and are licensed to you, not sold.
• Card names, card artwork, set logos, characters and game names shown in the app belong to their owners. House of Collectors is an independent app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by or connected to any of the companies or brands whose trading cards, characters or games appear in it, including (without limitation) The Pokémon Company, Nintendo, Creatures and GAME FREAK (Pokémon), Disney, Marvel, Wizards of the Coast (Magic: The Gathering) and Riot Games (Riftbound). All trademarks, artwork and names remain the property of their respective owners and are used only to identify the cards you own and to show their prices.
• If you think something in the app infringes your rights, write to houseofdisplays@outlook.com with the details and we will look at it promptly.

8. Apple's terms

If you get the app from the Apple App Store, Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/) also applies. Apple is not responsible for the app or for support for it, and is not a party to these terms, but it can enforce them against you as a third-party beneficiary.

9. Availability and changes

We try to keep the app available, but we do not promise it will always work without interruption or errors. We may change or stop features, and we may update these terms. If a change is significant we will tell you in the app. Using the app after a change means you accept the updated terms.

10. Disclaimers and limits of liability

• The app is provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent the law allows, we give no warranties about accuracy, results or fitness for a particular purpose.
• To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, lost profits, or losses from decisions you make based on prices, grades or scans. Our total liability to you for anything connected with the app is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the event, or €50 if you paid nothing.
• Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law (for example for intent, gross negligence, or death or personal injury), or any rights you have as a consumer that cannot be waived.

11. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Netherlands. If you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and you may bring a dispute in the courts of that country.
