Riot Games Terms of Service

This document constitutes Riot Games' Terms of Service governing access to and use of all Riot Games products, software, services, and websites, operating under a clickwrap acceptance model whereby account creation or continued use constitutes binding agreement. The agreement states that users receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the services, and the terms authorize Riot Games to suspend or terminate accounts at its discretion, to modify or discontinue services without notice, and to retain ownership of all in-game virtual items and currency regardless of user expenditure. Notably, the terms include a binding arbitration clause with a class action waiver, a 30-day opt-out window for arbitration, a shortened dispute filing period, and assert that virtual goods and currency have no real-world value and are not refundable, provisions that are relatively standard in gaming industry terms but which, taken together, materially limit consumer legal recourse and expectations around purchased digital content. The agreement engages COPPA and related child privacy frameworks given Riot Games' mixed-age user base, as well as GDPR and CCPA given its global operations and explicit regional disclosures, with enforcement authority potentially vested in the FTC at the federal level and state attorneys general for consumer protection matters. Compliance teams should note that the enforceability of class action waivers and mandatory arbitration clauses involving minors may be constrained by applicable law in certain jurisdictions, and that the characterization of virtual currency as having no monetary value may interact with evolving consumer protection and digital asset regulations in the EU and select US states.
