Terms of Use — Albion Market Data Client

Last Updated: July 11, 2026

By downloading, installing, or using the Albion Market Data Client (the "app") and the albionmarket.gg service (the "service"), you agree to these Terms of Use and to our Privacy Policy. The app is a free, unofficial, fan-made tool for the game Albion Online that passively reads the game's own network data to collect market and gameplay statistics. It is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Sandbox Interactive GmbH, the makers of Albion Online.

1. Acceptance & eligibility

• Using the app or the service means you accept these Terms and the Privacy Policy.
• You must be at least 16 years old (or the age required in your country to consent to the processing of personal data) to use the app or the service.
• If you do not agree to these Terms, do not install or use the app.

2. License to use

• We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, revocable license to use the app for its intended purpose.
• The app's source code, where published, is governed by the license in its repository. That license governs the code; these Terms govern your use of the hosted service.
• We do not warrant that the app or service will be available, uninterrupted, secure, or error-free.

3. Game rules & use at your own risk

This is the most important section — please read it.

• The app reads the game's own network traffic only. It does not modify the game, inject packets, or automate gameplay.
• However, use of any third-party tool with Albion Online is at your own risk. You are solely responsible for complying with Albion Online's Terms of Service, EULA, and any applicable game rules. We do not guarantee that this tool is permitted by the game operator, and we are not responsible for any action taken against your game account — including warnings, suspensions, or bans.
• You assume all risk arising from installing and running the app and the third-party Npcap capture driver.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Attack, overload, or disrupt the service — including denial-of-service attempts, abuse of the ingest/API endpoints, or attempts to bypass authentication or the proof-of-work handshake.
• Upload false, manipulated, or spam data intended to poison or distort the shared market dataset.
• Resell, sublicense, or commercially redistribute the app or the service.
• Use the app or service to violate any law or the rights of any third party.

5. Accounts & termination

• Login is via Discord OAuth. You are responsible for the security of your own Discord account.
• We may suspend or terminate accounts and remove data for abuse, data poisoning, or violation of these Terms.

6. Data you contribute

• By uploading data (market prices and, if you opt in, gameplay statistics), you grant the service a license to store, process, aggregate, display, and publish that data as part of operating the service.
• Market and economy data may be made public (for example, as a public price dataset on albionmarket.gg). Your personal gameplay statistics appear on your own dashboard.
• Market data is game-economy information, not personal data. How we handle personal data is described in the Privacy Policy.

7. Intellectual property & trademarks

• "Albion Online" and related names and logos are trademarks of Sandbox Interactive GmbH. This project is unaffiliated and makes nominative reference to them only.
• The app, the service, and the Albion Market name, branding, and logo are owned by the operator. You may not copy, reproduce, or redistribute them without permission.
• Third-party components are used under their own licenses — including Npcap, Wails, gopacket, the Albion Data Project protocol lineage, and the ao-bin-dumps game-data dataset.

8. Disclaimers & limitation of liability

• The app and service are provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
• To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, data loss, actions taken against your game account, or any damages arising from your use of the app, the Npcap driver, or the service.
• Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law, including certain mandatory consumer protections.

9. Availability, changes & termination

• The service is offered on a best-effort basis and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time without notice.
• We may change these Terms from time to time. Continued use after a change means you accept the revised Terms; the "Last Updated" date above will change.
• Either party may end this arrangement: you by uninstalling the app and/or deleting your account, and us by terminating access under §5.

10. Governing law & contact

These Terms are governed by the laws of Czechia and the European Union, without regard to conflict-of-law provisions. For any question about these Terms, open a support ticket in the Albion Market Discord server, or email [email protected].
