Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of these Terms

By accessing or using ankorathletics.com, ankorathletics.app, or any related Ankor website, application, feature, content, or service (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to these Terms of Service (“Terms”) and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. If you do not agree, do not access or use the Services.

If you use the Services on behalf of a school, club, athletic department, team, organization, or other entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity. In that case, “you” includes both you and that entity.

2. What Ankor Provides

Ankor provides tools that help athletic organizations connect athlete evaluations, skill development, instructional content, practice planning, and related communication. Depending on your role and the configuration selected by your organization, the Services may allow you to view or create evaluations, skill recommendations, development plans, practice content, drill videos, ratings, notes, and related athletic information.

Ankor is a technology platform. We do not provide medical, mental-health, legal, recruiting, or other professional advice, and use of the Services does not guarantee athletic performance, team selection, playing time, recruitment, scholarships, or any other outcome.

3. Eligibility and Minors

You must provide accurate information and have the legal capacity to agree to these Terms. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Services only with the involvement and permission of a parent or legal guardian, or through an organization that is authorized to provide you access.

For users under 13, access must be provided and used only with the required parent, guardian, school, club, or organizational authorization and consent under applicable law. Parents and guardians are responsible for supervising a minor’s use of the Services and for contacting us with questions about the minor’s information or account.

Organizations that invite or enroll minors represent that they have the authority and required permissions to do so and are responsible for providing any notices and obtaining any consents required by law.

4. Accounts and Access

You are responsible for keeping your login information confidential and for all activity occurring through your account. You may not share, sell, transfer, or permit unauthorized access to your account. Notify your organization administrator or Ankor promptly if you believe your account has been compromised.

Organizations may create, manage, or deactivate accounts and may control access to organization content. Your access may end when you leave an organization, when the organization ends its use of the Services, or when your account is deactivated under these Terms.

5. User and Organization Content

“Content” includes evaluations, ratings, notes, plans, practice materials, videos, photographs, text, messages, and other information submitted to or created through the Services.

You retain ownership of Content that you own. You grant Ankor a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, process, display, and transmit your Content solely as needed to operate, maintain, secure, improve, and provide the Services to you and the applicable organization.

You represent that you have all rights, permissions, and consents necessary to submit Content and to grant this license. You may not submit Content that is unlawful, abusive, defamatory, infringing, sexually explicit, deceptive, or otherwise inappropriate for a youth athletic environment.

Organizations are responsible for deciding what Content their authorized coaches, administrators, athletes, and parents may access and for managing Content in accordance with their own policies and legal obligations.

6. Ownership of Ankor Materials

The Services and all materials provided by Ankor—including software, designs, interfaces, trademarks, logos, text, graphics, drill libraries, instructional materials, and compilations—are owned by or licensed to Ankor and are protected by intellectual-property laws. Subject to these Terms, Ankor grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use the Services for their intended purpose.

You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, reverse engineer, scrape, frame, create derivative works from, or commercially exploit Ankor Materials except with our prior written permission.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• use the Services for an unlawful, harmful, fraudulent, or abusive purpose;
• interfere with the operation or security of the Services;
• attempt to access another person’s account or information without authorization;
• upload malware, harmful code, or content that violates another person’s rights;
• use automated means to access, copy, or extract data from the Services;
• use the Services to harass, threaten, exploit, or endanger a minor; or
• use Ankor’s Content or Services to build or train a competing product without permission.

8. Third-Party Services

The Services may connect to or contain links to third-party services, websites, videos, calendars, authentication providers, hosting providers, or other tools. Ankor does not control and is not responsible for third-party services. Your use of them may be governed by separate terms and privacy policies.

9. Fees, Subscriptions, and Organization Payments

Some Services may be available only through a paid plan or an organization subscription. The applicable organization, parent, or account holder is responsible for charges disclosed at the time of purchase or enrollment. Unless otherwise stated, fees are non-refundable except where required by law or expressly agreed in writing.

Ankor may change pricing or plan features by providing reasonable notice. If a payment is not received when due, Ankor or the applicable organization may limit or suspend access.

10. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect information, including information related to athletes and minors. By using the Services, you acknowledge that you have reviewed the Privacy Policy. If you are a school, club, or other organization, you remain responsible for using the Services in accordance with your own privacy notices, policies, and legal obligations.

11. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate access to the Services if we reasonably believe that you violated these Terms, created a security or legal risk, failed to pay applicable fees, or used the Services in a way that could harm Ankor, another user, an organization, or a minor. We may also modify, suspend, or discontinue all or part of the Services.

You may stop using the Services at any time. Sections that by their nature should survive termination—including ownership, licenses, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, and dispute provisions—will survive.

12. Disclaimers

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” ANKOR DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, AND THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE.

Ankor does not guarantee that Content, evaluations, recommendations, drill selections, or other information will be complete, accurate, current, or appropriate for a particular athlete. Coaches, parents, organizations, and users are responsible for applying their own judgment and supervision.

13. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANKOR AND ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AFFILIATES, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OPPORTUNITIES, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANKOR’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID ANKOR FOR THE SERVICES DURING THE SIX MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR $100.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.

14. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Ankor and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, affiliates, and service providers from claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses—including reasonable attorneys’ fees—arising from your Content, your misuse of the Services, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of another person’s rights or applicable law.

15. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought in the state or federal courts located in New Jersey, and you consent to their jurisdiction and venue, except where applicable law requires a different forum.

16. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated version and revise the effective date above. If a change is material, we will provide notice through the Services, by email, or by another reasonable method. Your continued use of the Services after the updated Terms become effective means you accept the changes.

17. General Terms

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any applicable written agreement between Ankor and an organization, are the entire agreement regarding the Services. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect. Ankor’s failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. Ankor may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets.
