Terms of service

These terms cover your use of StatCaddy — the app at statcaddy.app and this website. By using it, you agree to them.

Who these terms are with

[NEEDS REVIEW] Name the contracting entity — [legal entity name and registered address] — matching the privacy policy.

Your account

You need a valid email address to use StatCaddy. Sign-in is by a one-time code sent to that address, so keeping access to your inbox secure is how you keep your account secure.

One account is for one person. Don't share it, and don't let someone else use it — a coach and their students each need their own.

You must be at least [NEEDS REVIEW: minimum age] to hold an account. Junior players require parental consent, as set out in the privacy policy.

Plans and payment

Access to StatCaddy requires an active subscription, a seat covered by a coach, or a complimentary account granted by us.

• Solo player — an individual subscription for a golfer without a coach on StatCaddy.
• Coach plans — include a number of student seats, with additional students charged per student per month.

Current prices are on the pricing page. Payments are taken by Stripe. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled.

Founding pricing

Where we describe a price as founding pricing, we mean it: if you subscribe at that price, we will not increase it for your existing subscription while it remains active and continuously paid. [NEEDS REVIEW] Confirm you intend to be bound by this — as written it is a promise, and it is a good one, but it must be one you're willing to keep. Define what happens if someone cancels and later returns.

Cancelling and refunds

You can cancel at any time from your billing page. Your access continues until the end of the period you have already paid for.

[NEEDS REVIEW] State your refund position. UK and EU consumers have statutory cancellation rights for digital services which you cannot exclude, and the usual approach is to ask the customer to acknowledge that supply begins immediately. This needs advice.

Coaches and students

If you are a coach:

• You may invite students, and a student's data becomes visible to you only once they accept.
• You are responsible for how you use what you see, and for treating your students' data with the care it deserves.
• Where you cover a student's seat, you are responsible for the charges for that seat.
• If you coach juniors, you are responsible for having appropriate consent.

If you are a student, you may disconnect from a coach at any time without their permission.

[NEEDS REVIEW] Decide whether coaches need a separate data-processing agreement with you. If a coach determines how their students' data is used, they may be a controller in their own right, which changes the relationship.

Your content, and ours

Your golf data is yours. Your rounds, notes and statistics belong to you, and we claim no ownership of them. You grant us permission to store and process them in order to provide the service — including sending them to the providers listed in the privacy policy.

A coach's content is theirs. Videos, practice games and lesson notes a coach creates remain theirs. [NEEDS REVIEW] If you ever intend to share or licence coach-authored content to other coaches, that permission must be obtained here, explicitly. Do not add a broad licence grant without deciding this deliberately.

What StatCaddy does and doesn't promise

StatCaddy analyses the data you give it. Its readings are generated automatically and are not coaching advice. They describe patterns in your numbers; they cannot see you play, and they are not a substitute for a qualified coach.

We aim to keep the service available and accurate, but we don't guarantee it will be uninterrupted or error-free, and automatically generated content can be wrong. Scorecard readings should always be checked on the review screen before saving.

Acceptable use

Don't:

• Try to break, overload or gain unauthorised access to the service.
• Use it to store anything unlawful, or anyone else's data without their agreement.
• Scrape it, resell it, or rebuild it.
• Attempt to access another user's data.

We may suspend or end an account that does these things.

Ending it

You can stop using StatCaddy and delete your account at any time — email [email protected].

We may end or suspend your access if you break these terms, or if payment fails and stays unpaid. [NEEDS REVIEW] State the notice period you'll give for ending service without cause, and how long data remains retrievable after an account closes.

Liability

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. If a change materially affects you, we'll tell you in advance. Continuing to use StatCaddy after a change means you accept it.

Governing law

[NEEDS REVIEW] State the governing law and the courts with jurisdiction — likely Scotland, given where the business operates, but this is a decision to make deliberately rather than assume.
