Terms of Service
Last updated Nov 13, 2026
These terms are the agreement between you and the operator of SteamRadar for using SteamRadar — the website at steamradar.net, our apps and our API. Please read them: by creating an account or using SteamRadar you accept them. If you use SteamRadar for a company, you accept them on its behalf.
In short
- SteamRadar shows data about Steam games and the creators and studios behind them, and lets members message those creators and studios.
- Message people only about things relevant to them — no spam, scams or harassment. Accounts that break this lose messaging.
- 5 messages a day are free; after that each recipient costs one credit. Credits never expire.
- Unused credits can be refunded within 30 days of purchase — see the Refund Policy.
- Our estimates (owners, revenue, scores) are estimates. We are not affiliated with Valve, Steam, YouTube or Twitch.
1. What SteamRadar does
We publish data about Steam games — prices, players, reviews and our own estimates — and about the YouTube creators, Twitch streamers and developers connected to them, collected from public sources.
Members can send messages to creators, streamers and studios through SteamRadar. We deliver each message ourselves: by e-mail to the business address the recipient published, or to their SteamRadar inbox if they have an account. We never show, sell or hand out anyone's e-mail address — not to members and not to anybody else.
2. Your account
You must be at least 16 years old to create an account, and 18 (or have a parent's or guardian's permission) to buy credits.
Use a real e-mail address that you read, keep your password secret and tell us at once through Support if you think someone else used your account. One account is for one person or one company; you are responsible for what happens on it.
You can delete your account at any time in Dashboard → Settings.
3. Messaging rules
SteamRadar exists so that game studios, publishers, creators and streamers can find each other for real business: coverage, keys, sponsorships, ports, publishing and similar. Every message must be relevant to the person who receives it and written to them as you would write one by one. You may not use SteamRadar to send:
- spam — the same unrelated offer to many people, or messages that are mainly advertising;
- scams, phishing, malware or links that hide where they lead;
- harassment, threats, hate, or sexual content of any kind;
- anything illegal, including content that infringes someone else's rights;
- messages that pretend to come from another person or company, or that ask recipients for passwords or payment details;
- paid-review offers that ask creators to hide that they were paid — sponsored content must be disclosed as the platforms and the law require.
Recipients can unsubscribe, report a message and block a sender. Senders who are reported repeatedly have messaging paused automatically, and our team reviews reported messages. We may suspend messaging or close an account that breaks these rules; credits used for messages that broke them are not refunded.
SteamRadar sends one message per recipient per 24 hours from the same sender and limits how many recipients you can reach each day.
4. Profiles, posts and chat
Accounts without a verified game, YouTube channel or Twitch channel are read-only: they can read and follow, but not post, comment, like, share or message anybody. Claim your game or channel — or sign up with the address shown on it — to unlock them.
The messaging rules above apply to your profile, posts, comments and chat messages too. You keep the rights to what you post; you allow us to show it on SteamRadar and in our apps. Post only what you have the right to share. We may remove content that breaks these terms and close the accounts behind it; members can report posts and comments.
5. Credits and payments
5 messages a day are free (one per recipient). Beyond that, each recipient costs one credit. One credit costs $0.05, with volume discounts on larger packs; the price you pay is the one shown on the Pricing page and at checkout when you buy, in US dollars.
Payments are processed by Stripe; we never see or store your card number. Taxes are added where the law requires.
Credits never expire. They have no cash value, cannot be transferred to another account or exchanged for money, and can only be used to send messages on SteamRadar.
When a message cannot be delivered because the recipient opted out before it reached them, its credit is returned to you automatically.
Refunds of purchased credits follow our Refund Policy.
6. Affiliate program
Members can share a referral link. You earn 50% of what the people you refer pay for credits. A commission becomes payable 30 days after the purchase (the refund window); you can request a payout once your balance reaches $20.00.
If a referred purchase is refunded or disputed, its commission is cancelled, also after it became payable. Commissions from your own accounts, from fake or incentivised sign-ups, or from spam and misleading promotion are not paid, and we may close the accounts involved.
7. Claiming a channel, stream or game
You may claim only profiles that you own or are allowed to represent. We verify a claim through the contact address on file or by signing in with the platform. Claiming someone else's profile is not allowed and leads to the account being closed.
8. API
API keys are personal: keep them secret and stay within the limits in the API documentation. We may revoke keys that are shared, abused, or used to copy our database.
9. Our data and how you may use it
Our data comes from public sources — Steam, YouTube, Twitch and the pages creators and studios publish themselves — and from our own estimates. Owner, sales and revenue numbers and our scores are estimates, not facts reported by the companies. We show everything as it is, without a guarantee that it is complete, current or correct; please do not rely on it alone for financial decisions.
You may use our pages and charts for your own work and quote them with a link to SteamRadar. You may not copy the database, scrape the site in bulk or resell our data.
Game data, images and trademarks belong to their owners. SteamRadar is not affiliated with or endorsed by Valve, Steam, YouTube, Google or Twitch.
10. YouTube and Twitch
SteamRadar uses YouTube API Services. By using SteamRadar you also agree to the YouTube Terms of Service, and Google's Privacy Policy applies to the data YouTube provides.
Twitch data is provided through the Twitch API under Twitch's own terms.
11. Availability and changes
We work to keep SteamRadar available and correct, but we cannot promise that it will always run without interruption or errors. We may change, add or remove features.
If we stop the messaging service, we will tell members at least 30 days in advance and refund the credits they paid for and have not used.
12. Suspension and closing an account
You can stop using SteamRadar and delete your account at any time.
We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or the law, harms other people, or abuses payments (for example with unjustified chargebacks). If we close your account although you did not break these terms, we refund the credits you paid for and have not used.
13. Liability
SteamRadar is provided "as is". As far as the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, lost profits or lost opportunities, or for decisions you make based on our data, and our total liability to you is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.
Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, or your rights as a consumer.
14. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. If a change matters for members, we will e-mail you at least 14 days before it applies; if you continue to use SteamRadar after that, the new terms apply.
15. Law and disputes
These terms are governed by the law of the country where the operator of SteamRadar is established, and its courts decide disputes. If you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory law of the country you live in and can also go to court there.
Before going to court, please write to us — most problems are solved quickly.
