Terms of Service

Terms of Service (template — review with counsel before launch)

Last updated: {{DATE}}

By using ForgeTeams you agree to these terms.

Eligibility

You must be 13 or older to use ForgeTeams. By creating an account you confirm you meet this requirement.

Accounts & roles

Organizations invite members and assign roles (admin/player). Admins manage their Organization's roster, content, and settings. You're responsible for activity under your account.

Acceptable use

No unlawful, harassing, or infringing content. Coaches/admins are responsible for content they distribute (announcements, documents, messages).

Your content & the license you grant us

"Coaching Content" means the coaching materials you create in ForgeTeams — drills, practice plans, workouts, drill-designer diagrams, recipes, and nutrition templates. You keep ownership of your Coaching Content.

To run and improve the service, you grant ForgeTeams a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, adapt, and display your Coaching Content in order to:

operate the service for you and your Organization; and
**improve our products and develop features, including training and evaluating

machine-learning / AI models** that generate coaching plans, sport-specific workouts, and nutrition guidance.

This license continues for content you have shared even if you later close your account, to the extent it has already been incorporated into an improved model or an aggregated dataset (see "AI and product improvement" below). It does not give us the right to sell your Coaching Content as-is or attribute it to you publicly without your permission.

AI and product improvement

Coaching Content (above) may be used to train and improve our AI features

under the license you grant in these terms.

Personal and health-related data — including an individual player's

nutrition logs and wellness/soreness check-ins — is not used to train AI under these terms. We use it only to provide the app's features (see the Privacy Policy). We will only use such data to improve or train AI in de-identified or aggregated form, and only where you have given a separate, explicit opt-in, which you can withdraw at any time.

AI-generated coaching, workout, and nutrition suggestions are **general

guidance** to be reviewed and adapted by a qualified coach. They are not medical, dietary, or professional advice.

E-signatures

When you sign a document in-app, you intend to be legally bound (ESIGN/UETA). We record your identity, a timestamp, and a cryptographic hash of the exact document signed as an immutable audit record.

Data

Your data is handled per the Privacy Policy (PRIVACY.md) and, for Organizations, the Data Processing Agreement (DPA.md).

Disclaimers & liability

The service is provided "as is." To the extent permitted by law, our liability is limited as described in your subscription agreement.

Changes & termination

We may update these terms; continued use means acceptance. You may stop using the service and delete your account at any time.
