Terms of service

By accessing and using Ballr ("the Service"), you accept and agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

1. Use of the service

The Service helps users discover basketball courts, organise pickup games, and connect with the community where those features are available. You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not infringe the rights of others or restrict their enjoyment of the Service.

2. Assumption of risk and release of liability

Participation in basketball involves inherent risks of physical injury, including sprains, strains, fractures, concussions, and other serious injuries.

By using the Service to find courts or join sessions, you acknowledge and agree that:

• You voluntarily assume all risks associated with participating in basketball activities.
• Injuries may occur regardless of court condition or participants' skill level.
• You are responsible for your own safety and for acting safely toward others during sessions.
• You will not hold Ballr, its owners, operators, employees, agents, or partners liable for injuries, damages, or losses arising from your participation in activities arranged or discovered through the Service, except where liability cannot be excluded under applicable law.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release and hold harmless Ballr and related parties from claims, demands, losses, costs, or damages arising from your use of the Service or participation in court sessions, except where such exclusion is not permitted by law.

3. Health and fitness

You represent that you are in adequate physical condition for basketball or will consult a physician before participating if you have health concerns. You are solely responsible for deciding whether an activity is appropriate for you.

4. Court information and conditions

We strive to provide useful information about courts and availability, but conditions may change. Ballr does not guarantee the condition, safety, or availability of any court. You are responsible for inspecting the environment and ceasing play if something is unsafe.

5. Bookings and payments

Where bookings or payments are offered, they are subject to availability and any third-party facility rules. Fees, cancellation, and refund terms will be shown at the time of booking where applicable.

6. User conduct

You agree to behave respectfully toward other users and venue staff. Harassment, violence, discrimination, or other harmful behaviour may result in suspension or termination of your account and loss of access to the Service.

7. Accounts and content

You are responsible for your account credentials and for content you post where the Service allows it. You must not use the Service to break the law, distribute malware, or impersonate others. We may remove content or restrict accounts that violate these terms or put others at risk.

8. Changes to the service and terms

We may modify the Service or these terms. We will post updates on this page and may provide additional notice for significant changes. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms, where permitted by law.

9. Contact
