Please read these Riot Games API Terms (the "API Terms") carefully. Subject to the terms and conditions of these API Terms, Riot Games, Inc. ("Riot") may make the Game Information (as defined below) available to you and any entity on whose behalf you accept these API Terms (you and any such entity, "You," or "Your" where applicable) through the Riot Games API (as defined below).

YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ THESE API TERMS AND UNDERSTAND THE RIGHTS, OBLIGATIONS, TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH HEREIN. BY CLICKING "I ACCEPT" AND/OR ACCESSING AND CONTINUING TO USE THE RIOT DEVELOPER SITE, THE RIOT GAMES API AND/OR ANY OTHER MATERIALS (EACH AS DEFINED BELOW), YOU (A) EXPRESSLY CONSENT TO BE BOUND BY ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS AND GRANT TO RIOT THE RIGHTS SET FORTH HEREIN, AND (B) REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE OF LEGAL AGE TO FORM A BINDING CONTRACT. IF YOU DISAGREE WITH ANY OF THESE API TERMS, RIOT DOES NOT GRANT YOU A LICENSE TO ACCESS OR USE THE RIOT GAMES API OR ANY OTHER MATERIALS OWNED BY RIOT.
The Terms of Use Agreement that You have entered into with Riot or one of its affiliates (including any agreements or policies that may be incorporated therein by reference, and as may be amended from time to time, the "Master TOU") with respect to the League of Legends® computer game (the "Game") and related websites is incorporated herein by reference. The Specifications (as defined below) are also incorporated herein by reference. In the event of an irreconcilable conflict between the terms and conditions of these API Terms, on the one hand, and the terms and conditions of the Master TOU, the Specifications and/or any other applicable legal document, on the other hand, then the terms and conditions of these API Terms shall govern with respect to the subject matter herein.
The "LAST UPDATED" legend above indicates when these API Terms were last changed. Riot, in its sole discretion, may update, amend or modify these API Terms from time to time, and Riot will notify You of such changes by any means determined by Riot, including by posting such modified API Terms to the Riot developer website currently located at https://developer.riotgames.com (as may be changed from time to time, the "Riot Developer Site"). Any such changes will not apply to any dispute between You and Riot arising prior to the date on which Riot posted the revised API Terms incorporating such changes, or otherwise notified You of such changes. You should monitor the Riot Developer Site to ensure (a) You are using only the latest stable version of the Riot Games API; and (b) You are aware of any changes in the API Terms, the Master TOU and any other applicable legal documents. In the event You cannot agree to any changes in these API Terms, the Master TOU and/or any other applicable legal document, You will immediately cease any and all access to and use of the Riot Games API and, where applicable, any and all access to and use of the Game Information.

Definitions

For purposes of these API Terms, the following terms have the following meanings:
"API Key" means a unique string identifying You and/or each Application as a user of the Riot Games API, assigned by Riot to You and/or each Application in Riot's sole discretion, to enable You and/or such Application to access and/or use the Riot Games API. The Riot Games API may include (a) separate "keys" for (i) development and/or personal (i.e., lower usage rate) purposes (a "Development Key") and (ii) production purposes (a "Production Key"), and/or (b) other unique identifier(s) assigned by Riot to You and/or each Application.
"Application" means a software application and/or website owned, controlled or made available by You that incorporates, accesses or uses any Materials.
"Game Information" means metadata arising from the Game regarding user profiles, user gameplay history, statistics, team information, "summoner" preferences and other information related to the Game and competitive Game events as may be provided by Riot through the Riot Games API in its sole discretion from time to time.
"Materials" means any and all of the following: the Riot Games API, the API Keys, the Game Information, the Specifications (including any copies, portions, extracts and derivatives thereof) and any related materials (excluding the Riot Marks) made available by or on behalf of Riot to You pursuant to these API Terms or otherwise in connection with the Riot Games API.
"Riot Games API" means any application programming interface(s) and other related information (which may consist of software, data, functions, features, code, instructions and/or other technology) currently accessible through the Riot Developer Site, and as may be identified in the Specifications and/or designated by Riot from time to time in Riot's sole discretion.
"Riot Marks" means Riot Games®, League of Legends®, and all other trade names, trademarks, service marks and associated slogans, logos and other indicia of origin of Riot, including, without limitation, those that appear on or in connection with the Game.
"Specifications" means any specifications or documentation related to the Riot Games API that Riot may make available from time to time in Riot's discretion, and includes any software code (other than any API Key) that Riot may make available specifically for the purpose of enabling an Application to access or use the Riot Games API or to permit an Application to interface with the Riot Games API (for example, code to be embedded in an Application to facilitate communication through or with the Riot Games API).
"Works" means all discoveries, ideas, inventions, concepts, developments, know-how, trade secrets, works of authorship, materials, specifications, software (source and object code), technology and other creations.

API Keys

To access and use the Riot Games API, You may create only one (1) developer account and You must complete the Riot Games API developer registration process by providing Your Game username and password on the Riot Developer Site and by providing any other information as may be requested by Riot. In Riot's sole discretion, You may then be issued one or more unique Developer Keys for accessing and using the Riot Games API and managing Your account. Thereafter, You may complete the Riot Games API application registration process by submitting Your Application for registration by Riot on the Riot Developer Site. By submitting an Application to Riot, You represent and warrant that such Application complies with these API Terms and the Specifications. You shall not hide, misrepresent or obscure any features, content, services or functionality in such Application. Riot will have the right (but not the obligation), in its sole discretion, to register such Application, and Riot reserves the right to delay the provision or activation of any Production Key and/or any other Materials until the completion of any such registration. You will provide any materials, data and other information as may be requested by Riot to confirm that such Application complies with these API Terms and the Specifications. If Your Application is registered by Riot, You will then be issued one or more unique Production Keys for such Application to access and use the Riot Games API.
API Keys may, at any time, be subject to activation, suspension and/or deactivation by Riot to ensure usage consistent with these API Terms and all applicable requirements, and for any other reason in Riot's sole discretion. You may only access the Riot Games API with the API Key(s) provided to You by Riot. You may not sell, transfer, sublicense or otherwise disclose Your API Key(s) to any other party. Maintaining account security is very important. You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of Your API Key(s). You agree to notify Riot immediately if You believe that Your API Key(s) have been compromised.
You are fully responsible and liable for all activities that occur using Your API Key(s) and/or Your Application(s) (including acts or omissions that would constitute a breach of these API Terms if made by You), regardless of whether such activities are undertaken by You or a third party. As between You and Riot, You are solely responsible for all aspects of each Application, and Riot will not be required to provide any technical or other support services to You or any user of any Application in connection with any Materials, including with respect to any integration of the Riot Games API with an Application. Riot is not responsible for monitoring or policing any dispute that may arise between or among You, any user, and/or any other third party. Your use of the Materials is at Your own risk, and You are solely responsible for any damage that results from any use of the Materials, including any damage to You or any user's computer systems or networks, or any loss of data.

LICENSED USES AND RESTRICTIONS

Subject to Your compliance with the API Terms, Riot grants to You a limited, non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, revocable right (a) to access and use the Materials owned by Riot in order to develop and distribute Applications that incorporate, access or use any Game Information, for the purpose of displaying such Game Information to end users of such Applications or for such purposes as may be (i) set forth in the Specifications and/or any other Materials, and/or (ii) communicated by Riot in writing from time to time in its sole discretion, and (b) to use any API Key solely to access the Riot Games API. You will cause all Riot Games API calls made by You or an Application to include the applicable API Key.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Your rights in and to any Materials owned by third parties are limited to the rights granted to You by such third parties. In the event You desire to resell or license any Application, charge for access to Game Information through a website or otherwise require payment for access to the Game Information, You must notify Riot and obtain Riot's prior written approval before undertaking such activities (please see Riot's full policy at http://www.riotgames.com/legal-jibber-jabber for more details). Failure to obtain Riot's prior written permission will result in the termination of Your rights under these API Terms. For the sake of clarity, You may advertise through such software applications and/or websites without asking for Riot's permission, provided You are otherwise complying with these API Terms.
In connection with Your access to and use of the Materials, You agree that You will not, and You will cause each Application not to, directly or indirectly, violate any applicable laws, rules or regulations, the rights of others, or the operational and security mechanisms of the Riot Games API or the Game.

Further, You Agree That

• You will comply with, and will ensure that each Application complies with, the Specifications and any applicable third party requirements.
• You will not distribute and/or display any Application that is in any way similar to Riot's own websites (including, but not limited to, www.riotgames.com, www.leagueoflegends.com and www.lolesports.com, and collectively, the "Riot Site") or use the Riot Marks or words describing Riot's products or services as the registered URL for Your website(s), save as expressly approved in writing by Riot.
• You will not knowingly harm, misuse or bring into disrepute the Game, the Riot Games API or the Riot Marks, but, on the contrary, will maintain the value and reputation thereof to the best of Your abilities.
• You will not use the Riot Games API in any Application that is actually or potentially fraudulent or inappropriate or contrary to these API Terms.

You will only collect the data or information of a user which is necessary for the function of Your application and/or website and only as expressly described in Your privacy policy. For the sake of clarity, You will not collect or attempt to collect any personally identifiable information of a Game user through the use of the Riot Games API.
• You will never collect the Game username or password used by users to log-in to their Game account (the "Riot Credentials"). If users need a separate account registration to use Your application or Your website, You will either (a) automatically generate a unique password and communicate it to the user, or (b) actively encourage users to use a username and password different from the Riot Credentials.
• Except as permitted through use of the Riot Games API hereunder, You will not perform any data-mining, scraping, crawling, or use any robot, other automatic device, script, technology or processes that send automated queries to the Game and/or Riot Site, or use any other similar methods and tools to gather or extract data, material or other information from the Game and/or Riot Site, without Riot's prior written consent, which consent may be withheld and withdrawn by Riot at any time, with or without notice, in Riot's sole discretion.

Limitations on Usage

Riot may, in its sole discretion, limit access to and/or usage of the Riot Games API and/or any other Materials by You and/or any Application. Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, Riot may, in its sole discretion, limit (a) the number of network calls that any Application may make with the Riot Games API, (b) the maximum file size and/or the maximum Game Information that may be accessed, and/or (c) Your access to and/or use of the Game Information and anything else contained in or obtained through the Riot Games API. Riot may change such usage limits at any time and without notice. Without limiting the foregoing, You shall not use the Riot Games API in a manner that exceeds reasonable request volume or constitutes excessive or abusive use. Without limiting any of its rights under these API Terms or otherwise, Riot may use technical means to prevent overusage and/or stop usage of the Riot Games API if any application and/or website exceeds reasonable usage limitations as determined by Riot in its sole and absolute discretion. A Development Key shall not be permitted to make more than five (5) network calls every ten (10) seconds.

IF YOU CHOOSE TO MAKE ANY OF YOUR PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE OR OTHER INFORMATION PUBLICLY AVAILABLE THROUGH THE RIOT DEVELOPER SITE, YOU DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK.
