Terms of Use
Effective date:
Using the site
TradeBalancer is a free fantasy football tool. Using the site or its API means you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.
Values are opinions
Every value on this site is an opinion, not a fact. The numbers come from the DynastyProcess data repository, which maps FantasyPros expert consensus rankings onto a curve. They are a relative scale, not dollars, and not a prediction of how a player will perform. They are one input into your own judgement, not financial, investment or betting advice.
Values can be wrong, out of date or missing, and upstream updates sometimes stop for weeks. The date on each page is the date of the data, not today's date. How the numbers are made is on the methodology page.
Data license and attribution
DynastyProcess publishes the values under the GPL-3.0 license, and that license travels with the data. If you reuse values from this site, keep the attribution to DynastyProcess and FantasyPros ECR and link back to the page or endpoint you took them from. Player names, teams and ages are public facts.
The free API
The API is free. There is no key, no sign-up and no rate limit. You may use it in your own projects as long as the attribution above is kept. The data changes once a week, so fetching it once a day is plenty.
We intend to keep the v1 field names stable, but there is no service-level agreement. The endpoints may be slow, unavailable or withdrawn, and there is no guarantee of uptime and no support.
Quoting and copying
You may quote values, link to any page and use the Cite buttons freely. Please do not copy whole pages or present the site as your own. If you want the full dataset, use the API or the DynastyProcess repository rather than scraping the pages.
No affiliation
TradeBalancer is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to the NFL, KeepTradeCut, FantasyCalc or FantasyPros. Their names appear only to identify them and remain the property of their owners.
No warranty
The site and the API are provided as they are, with no warranty of any kind. We do not promise that they are accurate, complete or available. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss that comes from using them, a lost trade or a lost league included.
Changes
We may change these terms. Changes will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Using the site after that date means you accept the new terms.
