Terms and Conditions
DRAFT — NOT LEGAL ADVICE. Pre-lawyer draft prepared for review by a licensed attorney. It was not written or reviewed by a lawyer. Items marked [VERIFY] or [DEFAULT CHOSEN — confirm with attorney] must be settled before publishing.
Effective date: [EFFECTIVE DATE]
Company: [Team Watcher LLC — entity TBD] ("Legacy Team Watcher," "we," "us," "our")
Contact: [CONTACT EMAIL]
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and us for the Legacy Team Watcher apps for iPhone and Android, the web app, and any related features (together, the "App"). By downloading, opening, or using the App, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our 21+ and Responsible Use Rules, which are part of these Terms. If you don't agree, don't use the App.
IMPORTANT: SECTION 17 REQUIRES MOST DISPUTES TO BE RESOLVED BY INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, NOT IN COURT OR IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU CAN OPT OUT WITHIN 30 DAYS. [DEFAULT CHOSEN — confirm with attorney]
1. You must be 21 or older
You may use the App only if you are at least 21 years old and can legally enter a contract. When the App asks, you must confirm that you are 21 or older, and by using the App you promise that you are. We may block or end access for anyone we reasonably believe is under 21. Parents and guardians: see our 21+ and Responsible Use Rules for how to block the App on a child's device.
2. What Legacy Team Watcher is, and is not
Legacy Team Watcher is a sports scoreboard and personal bet tracker. It shows scores, lines, and game status for teams you pick. It also lets you record bets you placed somewhere else, and it shows whether each one is currently COVERING, LOSING, WON, or LOST.
No wagering happens in the App. Legacy Team Watcher is not a sportsbook, casino, lottery, fantasy contest, or gambling service. We do not:
- accept, place, transmit, broker, arrange, or settle any bet or wager;
- hold, move, deposit, or pay out money or anything of value for betting;
- set, offer, or sell odds for betting;
- link to, recommend, refer you to, or earn money from any sportsbook, casino, or betting service (no affiliate links, referral codes, promos, or sponsorships from gambling companies);
- run contests, sweepstakes, or prizes.
Nothing in the App is an offer or invitation to gamble. Legacy Team Watcher is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any sportsbook, league, team, player, or data provider. We use team and league names only to identify games.
3. Not betting, financial, or professional advice
The App gives no picks, tips, predictions, "locks," or recommendations, and we are not a tipster or handicapping service. Scores, odds, lines, and the "chance to win" figure (a mathematical estimate from betting-market odds, with the sportsbook's margin removed, and for parlays, the legs multiplied together as if independent) are for information and entertainment only. They are not advice about whether, what, or how much to bet, not a forecast of any result, and not financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. Don't rely on the App to make betting or money decisions. You alone are responsible for your decisions and their results.
4. Information may be late, incomplete, or wrong
Scores, odds, game times, and bet statuses come from third-party data providers and our automated calculations. They may be delayed (game alerts and widgets can be minutes late or more because phones limit background updates), incomplete, or wrong, and the App may be unavailable at times. A status in the App (such as WON or LOST) is not an official result. Your sportsbook's records and official league results always control. Always confirm the real status and payout of a bet with your sportsbook.
5. AI bet-slip reader
The optional slip reader sends your photo to a third-party AI service to read it, as described in our Privacy Policy. The photo is not saved.
- AI can misread teams, lines, odds, amounts, bet types, or parlay legs, or miss bets entirely. The App shows you every field before saving, and you must check and correct each one. You are responsible for what you save.
- We don't guarantee the reader's accuracy, availability, or free-tier scan limits, and we may turn it off at any time (for example, if no provider can meet our zero-data-retention requirement).
- Upload only images of your own bet slips. Don't upload images that are illegal or that contain other people's private information. Crop out account names, balances, and other personal details.
- Nothing the reader returns is advice or an official record of your bet.
6. Follow the law where you are
Sports betting laws differ by state and country. Some places ban it, and many set the minimum age at 21. You alone are responsible for making sure any betting you do is legal where you are and for any taxes on winnings. Don't use the App in connection with illegal gambling, bookmaking, or betting for others, or to help anyone under 21 gamble. Using the App doesn't make any bet legal. We offer the App for personal use in the United States only. [DEFAULT CHOSEN — confirm with attorney: U.S.-only storefronts at launch.]
7. Responsible use
Gambling can be addictive. Set limits, never bet more than you can afford to lose, and take breaks. The App will never urge you to bet. If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, call or text 1-800-MY-RESET (the National Problem Gambling Helpline: free, confidential, 24/7), or chat at 1800myreset.org. [VERIFY: state-specific helpline requirements; see 21+ and Responsible Use Rules.]
8. Your license to use the App
We give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for your own non-commercial use, under these Terms and the rules of the app store you got it from. You may not:
- copy, sell, resell, rent, or sublicense the App or any data it shows;
- scrape, bulk-download, or redistribute scores, odds, or other data (our data providers forbid resale);
- reverse engineer, decompile, or modify the App, except where the law expressly allows it;
- get around rate limits or security features;
- overload, attack, or interfere with our servers or the slip reader;
- use the App to break any law or anyone's rights, or to run a tipster, betting, or bookmaking service.
9. Price
The App is free. It has no in-app purchases, no subscriptions and no ads. If we ever add a paid option, we will update these Terms and show notice in the App before it goes live.
10. Our content and your content
The App's software, design, text, and the Legacy Team Watcher name and logo belong to us or our licensors. Scores and odds belong to their providers. Team and league names belong to their owners and are used only for identification. Your bets, notes, and settings stay on your device and remain yours. We claim no ownership of them and can't access them. If you send us feedback, we may use it freely without paying you.
11. Third-party services
The App depends on others, including Apple, Google, our hosting provider, our AI provider, and sports data providers. Their terms govern their services, and we aren't responsible for their acts, outages, or errors. The App doesn't link to third-party betting sites.
12. Your data and deleting it
Our Privacy Policy explains what the App stores and where. There are no user accounts. You can erase everything the App stores at any time with Settings → Delete all my data or by uninstalling the App (on the web, by clearing the site's data). Because your data lives only on your device, deleting it or losing your device erases it permanently, and we can't restore it.
13. Changes to the App and these Terms; ending access
We may add, change, suspend, or stop the App or any feature. We may update these Terms. For material changes we'll show notice in the App before they take effect. If you keep using the App after that, you accept the updated Terms. If you don't agree, stop using the App. We may suspend or end your access if you break these Terms or the law. You may stop using the App at any time. Sections 2–6, 10, 12, and 14–19 survive termination.
14. Disclaimer of warranties
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS, THE APP AND ALL DATA, ODDS, SCORES, STATUSES, ESTIMATES, AND AI RESULTS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ACCURACY, TIMELINESS, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DON'T PROMISE THE APP WILL BE ACCURATE, TIMELY, SECURE, UNINTERRUPTED, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DATA ON YOUR DEVICE WON'T BE LOST.
15. Limitation of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS: (a) WE AND OUR OWNERS, EMPLOYEES, AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY GAMBLING OR BETTING LOSSES, LOST WINNINGS, LOST PROFITS, OR LOST DATA, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE APP (INCLUDING ANY LATE, WRONG, OR MISSING SCORE, ODDS, STATUS, ALERT, ESTIMATE, OR AI READING), EVEN IF WE WERE TOLD THEY WERE POSSIBLE; AND (b) OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATED TO THE APP IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (i) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE APP IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE OR (ii) US $50. [DEFAULT CHOSEN — confirm with attorney] SOME STATES DON'T ALLOW CERTAIN OF THESE LIMITS, SO THEY MAY NOT ALL APPLY TO YOU.
16. Indemnity
To the extent the law allows, you will defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from third-party claims, losses, and costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the App, or your violation of any law, including gambling laws. [DEFAULT CHOSEN — confirm with attorney: enforceability for consumers.]
17. Disputes: informal resolution, arbitration, and class-action waiver
[DEFAULT CHOSEN — confirm with attorney: arbitration provider, fee allocation, mass-arbitration procedures, and enforceability.]
a. Talk to us first. Before filing a claim, email [CONTACT EMAIL] with your name, a description of the dispute, and what you want. We'll both try in good faith to resolve it within 60 days.
b. Binding individual arbitration. If we can't resolve it, you and we agree that any dispute arising from or relating to the App or these Terms will be resolved by final, binding arbitration on an individual basis, administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules [VERIFY: provider and rules], rather than in court. The arbitrator decides all issues, including whether a claim must be arbitrated, except as stated in (e). The Federal Arbitration Act governs this section. You may choose a hearing by phone or video, or in your home county. We'll pay filing and arbitrator fees beyond what you'd pay to file in court, unless the arbitrator finds your claim frivolous.
c. Exceptions. Either side may bring an individual claim in small-claims court if it qualifies, or ask a court to stop infringement or misuse of intellectual property.
d. Class-action and jury waiver. YOU AND WE MAY BRING CLAIMS ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND YOU AND WE GIVE UP ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. The arbitrator may not combine claims of more than one person or award class-wide relief.
e. If the waiver fails. If a court finds the class-action waiver unenforceable for a claim, that claim (and only that claim) goes to court, and the arbitration agreement still applies to everything else.
f. 30-day opt-out. You may opt out of this Section 17 by emailing [CONTACT EMAIL] within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, with the subject "Arbitration Opt-Out." Opting out doesn't affect the rest of these Terms.
g. Court for non-arbitrated claims. Claims not subject to arbitration will be brought only in the state or federal courts located in [COUNTY], Virginia [VERIFY: county], and you and we consent to their jurisdiction.
18. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of [GOVERNING LAW — default Virginia], without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs Section 17. Nothing here takes away consumer-protection rights you have under the law of the state where you live.
19. App store terms
Apple. If you got the App from Apple's App Store: (a) these Terms are between you and us only, not Apple, and we (not Apple) are solely responsible for the App and its content; (b) your license is limited to use on Apple-branded products you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in Apple's Media Services Terms and Conditions; (c) Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App; (d) if the App fails to meet an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any), and to the maximum extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the App; (e) we, not Apple, are responsible for any claims relating to the App, including product-liability claims, claims that the App fails to meet legal or regulatory requirements, and consumer-protection, privacy, or similar claims; (f) we, not Apple, are responsible for investigating, defending, settling, and discharging any third-party claim that the App infringes intellectual property rights; (g) you represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and are not on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties; (h) questions, complaints, or claims about the App go to us at [CONTACT EMAIL]; (i) you must follow applicable third-party terms when using the App; and (j) Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, once you accept them, may enforce them against you. [VERIFY against Apple's current "Instructions for Minimum Terms of Developer's End-User License Agreement."]
Google. If you got the App from Google Play, Google Play's Terms of Service also govern your download and purchases. Google isn't responsible for the App.
20. General
These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and the 21+ and Responsible Use Rules are the entire agreement between you and us about the App. If any part is unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. Our failure to enforce a term isn't a waiver. You may not transfer these Terms. We may transfer them to a successor. We aren't liable for delays caused by events beyond our reasonable control. You must follow U.S. export and sanctions laws. Headings are for convenience only.
