Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern access to and use of NextRink, operated by NextRink (“NextRink”, “we”, “us”). By creating an account, signing in, accepting an invite, or purchasing a team season, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

This document is a product-aligned draft pending Canadian counsel review. Placeholders such as governing province must be completed before production launch.

You must be at least 18 years old to create or use a NextRink account. Children and youth players do not create accounts; they may appear only as roster data entered by authorized coaches or associations.

You are responsible for activity under your account and for keeping login credentials secure. Provide accurate information and use an email address you control (including when accepting invites).

Head coaches and associations decide what roster and performance information to upload. By adding or importing player information, you represent that you have lawful authority to do so (for example parental or association authorization) and that the information is accurate to the best of your knowledge.

Assistant coaches and parents access team information only as granted by the inviting coach. Parents linked to specific players may see limited parent-visible content.

• Do not upload personal information without authority to do so
• Do not attempt to access another user’s account or data without permission
• Do not misuse AI features to harass, unlawfully profile, or harm minors
• Do not reverse engineer, disrupt, or overload the service
• Do not use NextRink for unlawful purposes

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or create risk to users, players, or the service.

For self-serve associations, creating a team may require a prepaid one-time season payment processed by Stripe Checkout. Season length and access rules (including view-only after expiry) are described in the product at purchase time.

Sponsored associations may approve team access without Stripe payment, subject to association admin processes.

Unless required by applicable law, prepaid season fees are non-refundable after a team has been provisioned. If you believe a charge was made in error, contact nextrink@gmail.com promptly.

Optional AI features (including roster/schedule/stats import assistance, lineup suggestions, and the in-app assistant) may send team and player context to our AI provider (currently OpenAI) to generate outputs. AI outputs are assistive only, may be inaccurate, and are not professional, medical, or legal advice. You remain responsible for reviewing and deciding what to apply.

NextRink and its branding, software, and documentation remain our property (or our licensors’). You retain rights in content you submit. You grant us a non-exclusive license to host, process, and display that content as needed to operate the service, including through subprocessors.

Team notes, performance assessments, and similar coaching content may be sensitive. You agree not to share access credentials and to use parent-visible settings thoughtfully. We treat team content as confidential subject to our Privacy Policy and operational need.

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. WE DISCLAIM WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEXTRINK AND ITS SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL. OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO NEXTRINK FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM (OR CAD $100 IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID).

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those cases, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted.

You will defend and indemnify NextRink against claims arising from your content, your misuse of the service, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law, including claims that you uploaded player information without authority.

You may stop using NextRink and request account deletion as described in the Privacy Policy. We may suspend or terminate access for breach, risk, non-payment, or discontinuation of the service. Provisions that by their nature should survive will survive termination.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Quebec and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Courts located in Quebec will have exclusive jurisdiction, subject to mandatory consumer protections that cannot be waived.

We may update these Terms by posting a revised version. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance, except where additional consent is required by law.
