We wanted to give you an early heads-up that we’ll be making a few changes to those massive documents of legal jibber-jabber that you agree to when you play League of Legends – the Privacy Policy, Terms of Use (TOU) and End User License Agreement (EULA). The changes will be taking effect in the next patch (scheduled for October 9th), and today we’ll outline some of the key changes you can expect to see. It’s not a lot, but if you’re interested, read on (and of course, be sure to familiarize yourself with all the changes when the complete docs are posted):

Privacy Policy

• We’re now TRUSTe certified, which is the highest standard of privacy protection out there. You’ll see their seal on our website in the near future. You can read all about what that means at [url2="http://www.truste.com/products-and-services/consumer_privacy/privacy-programs-requirements#WPS"]TRUSTe’s website[/url2].
• We want to understand where new League of Legends players are coming from, so we’re gonna make use of more 3rd party cookies as well as tracking pixels, and the updated policy reflects this.
• Riot collects data/information associated with making a payment (rather than simply passing it along to third parties). We don’t do anything with that info except charge your card when you purchase RP (thanks!). We’ve added more clear language regarding refer-a-friend, newsletters, how to change your account info, and other services Riot provides.

TOU and EULA

• We’re the only ones who have access to personally identifiable information you provide directly to Riot.
• Like in the privacy policy update, we collect and store payment data.
• In the event of a dispute, you and Riot agree to binding, individual [url2="http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Binding+arbitration"]arbitration[/url2] of your claims (except for in certain, limited circumstances).

I’ll check out the comments section and try to answer any burning questions.

So, if Riot and I had a dispute, you would bring in a 3rd party to arbitrate it?
How would that work?
Also, what are these special circumstances?

Quebec won't because the laws regarding contests there are amazingly draconian. Good luck finding any company willing to hold one that's valid in Quebec.
