Terms of Service

The Service is intended for baseball players in high school and older, their families, coaches, and college scouts. You must be at least 13 years old to create an account. If you are between 13 and 17 years of age, you may only use the Service with the involvement, consent, and supervision of a parent or legal guardian, and you must provide a parent or guardian email address during signup. We may notify your parent or guardian of account activity at our discretion.

By creating an account, you represent and warrant that: (a) all information you provide is accurate, current, and complete; (b) you are legally capable of entering into a binding contract, or if you are a minor, that your parent or guardian has consented to your use of the Service and these Terms on your behalf; (c) you will maintain the accuracy of your information; and (d) your use of the Service does not violate any applicable law or regulation.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.

Sightline Baseball provides a software tool for organizing baseball player information, generating shareable recruiting profiles, and enabling coaches and scouts to track prospects. Sightline is not a recruiting service, athletic scholarship advisor, or educational placement service. We do not guarantee, promise, or represent that use of the Service will result in any recruitment, scholarship, roster spot, evaluation, or any other outcome. Any information provided through the Service is for informational purposes only.

You retain ownership of all information, images, statistics, notes, and other content you submit to the Service ("User Content"). By submitting User Content, you grant Sightline a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, display, process, and transmit that content solely as necessary to operate, provide, and improve the Service.

You represent and warrant that: (a) you own or have all necessary rights to submit the User Content; (b) the User Content does not infringe any third party's intellectual property, publicity, privacy, or other rights; (c) the User Content is truthful and not misleading; and (d) the User Content complies with all applicable laws and these Terms.

You are solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of submitting it. Sightline does not endorse, verify, or vouch for the accuracy of any User Content.

The Service allows you to generate share links that make selected portions of a player's profile publicly accessible to anyone with the link. You are solely responsible for choosing to share links and for the consequences of sharing. Once information is shared via a public link, we cannot control how recipients use, save, distribute, or reproduce that information.

Scouts and coaches using the Service may import shared profiles into their prospect boards. Importing a profile does not transfer ownership; the player retains control over their profile data.

The Service includes an optional Coach Verification feature that allows a coach to sign a printed report attesting to the accuracy of the information contained in it. Any such verification represents the personal attestation of the coach who signed it and does not constitute an endorsement, verification, or guarantee by Sightline. Sightline is not responsible for the accuracy or authenticity of any coach verification.

You agree not to: (a) violate any law, regulation, or third-party right; (b) submit false, misleading, fraudulent, or inaccurate information; (c) impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation with any player, coach, team, or organization; (d) use the Service to harass, threaten, abuse, or harm any person, particularly minors; (e) attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or other users' accounts; (f) reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive the source code of the Service; (g) use automated means (bots, scrapers, crawlers) to access the Service without our written permission; (h) resell, redistribute, or commercially exploit the Service or its content without written permission; (i) upload viruses, malware, or other harmful code; or (j) use the Service for any purpose other than as expressly permitted by these Terms.

We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor, review, or remove User Content, or to suspend or terminate accounts that we believe violate these Terms or applicable law, at our sole discretion and without notice.

Basic use of the Service is currently offered without charge. We reserve the right to introduce paid tiers, subscription plans, or additional paid features at any time. If we introduce fees, we will provide notice in advance and require your affirmative agreement before any charge. All fees are non-refundable except as required by law.

You may terminate your account at any time by contacting us at digitalbullpen@gmail.com. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice, at our sole discretion. Upon termination: (a) your right to use the Service ceases immediately; (b) we will delete your account and associated User Content from active systems within 30 days, except as required to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce our agreements; and (c) sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including sections on User Content licenses, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and dispute resolution.

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ACCURACY. SIGHTLINE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.

SIGHTLINE MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES REGARDING: (a) THE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY USER CONTENT OR THIRD-PARTY CONTENT; (b) THE OUTCOMES OF ANY RECRUITING OR RELATED ACTIVITY; (c) THE CONDUCT OF ANY USER; OR (d) THE CONTENT, POLICIES, OR PRACTICES OF ANY THIRD-PARTY WEBSITE OR SERVICE.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL SIGHTLINE, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, LICENSORS, OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, LOST OPPORTUNITIES, OR EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT SIGHTLINE HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

IN JURISDICTIONS THAT DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, OUR LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. IN NO EVENT WILL OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE EXCEED THE GREATER OF ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100) OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO SIGHTLINE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Sightline, its officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, and suppliers from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from or related to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your User Content; (c) your violation of these Terms; (d) your violation of any third-party right, including intellectual property, publicity, or privacy rights; or (e) your violation of any applicable law.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved through binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language and will take place in Washington State, or via videoconference at your election.

You and Sightline waive the right to a trial by jury and the right to participate in a class action, class-wide arbitration, or representative action. Claims must be brought in an individual capacity only.

Notwithstanding the above, either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if the dispute qualifies. Claims for injunctive relief related to intellectual property may be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction.

If any part of this arbitration provision is found to be unenforceable, the remainder will continue to apply. If the class action waiver is found unenforceable, the entire arbitration provision will be void.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles. Except for claims subject to arbitration, any legal action must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Washington.

We may update these Terms at any time. If we make material changes, we will provide notice by email to your account email address or by prominent notice on the Service at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using the Service.

These Terms, along with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Sightline regarding the Service. If any provision is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision will not be considered a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent; we may assign them freely. Notices to Sightline should be sent to digitalbullpen@gmail.com.
