Terms of Use.

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and [INSERT LEGAL BUSINESS NAME], doing business as Scout Signal ("Scout Signal," "we," "us," or "our"). They govern access to and use of Scout Signal websites, applications, Scout Assist AI, PeakFuel, Sentric, team and league tools, event and partner features, content, subscriptions, and related services (collectively, the "Services").

By accessing or using the Services, creating an account, clicking to accept, or authorizing a minor to use the Services, you agree to these Terms and the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services. Additional terms may be shown for a specific feature, event, purchase, contest, or partner service; those additional terms also apply.

• Adults. You must be at least 18 to create an independent adult account and enter binding purchases unless the law where you live provides otherwise.
• Users under 18. A parent or legal guardian must create, link, approve, or supervise a minor account as required by the product. The parent or guardian accepts these Terms on behalf of the minor and is responsible for permissions, settings, purchases, and appropriate use.
• Children under 13. Access is permitted only through Scout Signal's approved parent-managed process and after verifiable parental consent when required. [CONFIRM WHETHER UNDER-13 ACCOUNTS WILL BE OFFERED AT LAUNCH.]
• Authority. If you use the Services for a team, league, school, company, facility, event, or other organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization for the activities you perform.

You must provide accurate information, maintain current contact details, protect login credentials, and use only accounts and roles you are authorized to use. You are responsible for activity under your account except to the extent caused by Scout Signal. Notify us promptly of suspected unauthorized access, impersonation, or loss of account control.

You may not create accounts in bulk, transfer or sell accounts, share professional or parent credentials, evade a suspension, impersonate another person or organization, or misrepresent age, role, team, school, credentials, recruiting authority, or parent relationship.

Scout Signal may offer roles such as Athlete, Parent/Guardian, Coach/Team Staff, Scout/Recruiter, Facility Staff, League Admin, Partner/Provider, Event Operator, and Platform Admin. We may require verification, references, organization email, credentials, identity checks, or other evidence. Verification is a limited platform trust measure, not a guarantee, endorsement, background check, license, or promise of safety or quality.

Users must stay within their authorized role. Recruiters and scouts must comply with all applicable institutional, athletic association, employment, education, and recruiting rules. Coaches, teams, leagues, facilities, and providers remain responsible for their own staff, screening, supervision, insurance, licensing, and conduct.

Scout Signal provides technology for discovery, communication, organization, education, athlete development, training support, events, media, and AI-assisted guidance. Scout Signal is not a sports agent, recruiting agency, school, governing body, medical provider, dietitian, emergency service, credentialing authority, or guarantor of any participant.

Scout Signal does not guarantee exposure, roster selection, playing time, rankings, recruiting contact, scholarship offers, admissions, eligibility, NIL deals, sponsorship, income, performance improvement, injury prevention, medical outcomes, or success. Decisions are made by independent users and organizations.

You may use the Services only lawfully, safely, and for their intended sports, education, organization, and community purposes. You agree not to:

• Harass, threaten, bully, groom, exploit, discriminate against, sexualize, or endanger another person, including a minor.
• Request sexual content, intimate images, secrecy from a parent, private off-platform meetings with a minor, or direct contact that bypasses parent controls.
• Publish a minor's home address, personal phone number, precise live location, private travel schedule, school documents, medical records, or other unsafe information.
• Upload content you do not own or have permission to use, including film, music, logos, photos, or information about another person.
• Create false recruiting opportunities, fake credentials, misleading rankings, deceptive offers, scams, pyramid schemes, gambling promotions, or unauthorized contests.
• Use the Services to discriminate unlawfully in recruiting, employment, education, access, or participation.
• Scrape, harvest, buy, sell, broker, export, or build unauthorized databases of profiles, contact details, media, messages, or youth information.
• Circumvent access controls, parent gates, rate limits, security, subscription limits, or technical protections.
• Upload malware, probe vulnerabilities without written authorization, disrupt service, or use bots or automation in a way that harms users or infrastructure.
• Reverse engineer the Services except where law cannot prohibit it, or copy Scout Signal branding, interface, data structures, or proprietary content.
• Use content or output to train a competing model, profile minors, conduct surveillance, or make unlawful high-impact decisions.
• Encourage dangerous training, extreme weight change, eating-disorder behavior, substance use, violence, self-harm, or actions outside a person's qualifications.

Minor safety takes priority over convenience. Scout Signal may require message requests, parent approval, restricted contact, visible parent access, reporting tools, rate limits, and moderation. Users may not attempt to move a minor to private channels to evade safeguards or pressure a minor to conceal communications from a parent or guardian.

A parent or guardian may receive access to a minor's messages, requests, media, profile settings, assignments, purchases, reports, and safety notifications as provided by the product. A minor should not expect private communications from the linked parent within the Services.

Report suspected exploitation, grooming, credible threats, child sexual abuse material, trafficking, or immediate danger promptly. Scout Signal may preserve and report information to law enforcement or child-safety authorities when legally required or reasonably necessary. In an emergency, call 911 or the appropriate local emergency service; do not rely on Scout Signal.

Users control profile information and visibility within available settings, subject to parent approvals for minors. Scout/recruiter search, watchlists, notes, comparisons, profile views, or contact tools are for legitimate evaluation and communication. They may not be used for stalking, discrimination, mass solicitation, resale, or unauthorized background screening.

Recruiting messages must be truthful, professional, and consistent with applicable association, school, conference, employment, and eligibility rules. Scout Signal does not verify every claim or determine whether contact is permissible under every rule set. Users are responsible for checking current official rules and their organization's policies.

Authorized users may manage rosters, schedules, attendance, announcements, checklists, practice plans, workouts, film, plays, assignments, quizzes, or similar team activities. The organization remains responsible for supervision, coaching decisions, emergency plans, safe training conditions, athlete accommodations, content rights, and compliance with governing rules.

Coaches and administrators may not use assignments or performance data to humiliate, retaliate against, discriminate against, or medically diagnose an athlete. For minors, parent visibility and permissions apply as designed. Scout Signal may restrict or remove an organization that misuses the Services.

"User Content" means information, text, photos, video, audio, documents, messages, ratings, comments, plays, assignments, portfolio material, or other content submitted through the Services. You retain ownership of your User Content.

You grant Scout Signal a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, format, transmit, display, and otherwise use User Content only as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, improve, and provide the Services according to your settings, instructions, and applicable law. This license ends when the content is deleted from active systems, except for limited backups, legal retention, safety records, content shared by others, and de-identified information.

You represent that you have all rights and permissions needed to upload and share User Content, including consent from people shown or heard in media. For a minor's content, the authorized parent or guardian represents that the required permissions have been obtained. Do not upload copyrighted game film, music, broadcast footage, or third-party media unless authorized.

Scout Signal may remove, restrict, blur, label, preserve, or disable User Content that violates these Terms, creates safety or privacy risk, infringes rights, is subject to a valid legal request, or may harm the Services or users. We are not required to pre-screen all content.

Scout Assist provides AI-assisted information, explanations, filtering, content suggestions, drafts, and training support. Output can be wrong, incomplete, outdated, biased, or inappropriate for a particular athlete or situation. Review output before acting, sharing, or sending it.

• Scout Assist does not provide medical diagnosis, treatment, emergency response, legal advice, financial advice, official eligibility rulings, or guaranteed recruiting advice.
• Scout Assist does not make final recruiting, scholarship, admissions, employment, discipline, safety, or healthcare decisions.
• Users must not enter private information they lack authority to disclose or rely on AI output where a qualified professional or official source is required.
• AI-generated outreach remains a draft and must be reviewed and manually sent by an authorized user. Scout Signal may apply safety rules, source limits, confidence labels, and human-review requirements.

PeakFuel features provide general educational and sports-development information. They do not replace a physician, athletic trainer, physical therapist, registered dietitian, mental-health professional, or emergency care. Stop activity and seek qualified help for pain, injury, dizziness, breathing problems, chest pain, fainting, suspected concussion, eating-disorder concerns, or other warning signs.

Users are responsible for choosing age-appropriate activities, using safe equipment and conditions, following supervision requirements, checking allergies and dietary needs, and obtaining medical clearance when appropriate. Parents and organizations are responsible for supervision of minors. Scout Signal does not guarantee calorie, nutrient, workout, or readiness estimates.

Sentric and cognitive-training features are intended for focus, reaction, pattern recognition, decision practice, and sports learning. They are not medical devices, concussion tests, neuropsychological evaluations, or mental-health treatment. Scores should not be used alone to diagnose a condition, clear return to play, punish an athlete, or determine educational or employment eligibility.

A user with a suspected concussion, mental-health crisis, or other urgent concern should stop and seek an appropriate qualified professional or emergency service. Scout Signal may provide safety prompts but does not monitor continuously and cannot guarantee detection of risk.

Video analysis, pose estimation, form checks, play analysis, wearable connections, live event tracking, or biometric-enabled features may be introduced later. Any such feature is subject to separate notices, permissions, technical limitations, and safety rules. Computer-vision output is an estimate and must not be treated as a medical diagnosis, identity guarantee, official measurement, or substitute for qualified observation.

Scout Signal does not authorize facial recognition or biometric identification unless the feature is expressly launched with legally required notice, written consent, purpose limits, disclosure rules, retention and deletion terms, security controls, and attorney review.

Scout Signal may list or connect users with events, teams, leagues, trainers, recovery providers, cognitive providers, photographers, videographers, media crews, facilities, sponsors, and other partners. Listings, verification, badges, featured placement, or sponsorship do not guarantee quality, availability, safety, insurance, licensing, results, or suitability.

Transactions or services provided by an independent third party may be governed by that party's terms, waivers, cancellation rules, privacy policy, and insurance. Users should perform their own review. Providers working with minors must follow parent-consent, media-release, privacy, safeguarding, and professional-conduct requirements.

Some features may be free and others may require payment. Prices, plan features, trial terms, billing period, taxes, renewal, and cancellation details will be shown at purchase. By starting a recurring subscription, the purchaser authorizes the disclosed recurring charges until cancellation. A parent or guardian must authorize purchases for a minor.

Unless stated otherwise at checkout or required by law, cancellation stops future renewal and access continues through the paid period. Refunds, credits, promotional offers, and trial eligibility follow the terms shown at purchase and applicable law. App-store purchases may be controlled by the app store's billing and refund rules. [INSERT FINAL REFUND AND TRIAL LANGUAGE.]

Marketplace or partner payouts may be processed by a third-party payment provider and may require identity, tax, banking, fraud, reserve, or dispute information. Scout Signal may withhold, reverse, delay, or offset amounts when reasonably necessary for refunds, chargebacks, fraud, legal compliance, or agreement violations, subject to applicable law and the applicable payout terms.

The Services may use or link to third-party products, APIs, app stores, payment processors, video hosts, nutrition and workout databases, analytics tools, identity providers, teams, events, or websites. Scout Signal does not control independent third-party content or practices. Use of a third-party service may be subject to separate terms and privacy policies. Integrations may change or become unavailable.

The Services, software, design, branding, logos, databases, documentation, text, graphics, and Scout Signal-created content are owned by Scout Signal or its licensors and protected by law. Subject to these Terms, Scout Signal grants you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Services for their intended purpose. No other rights are granted.

You may not use Scout Signal names, marks, screenshots, designs, or materials to imply endorsement or affiliation without written permission. Suggestions or feedback may be used by Scout Signal without restriction or compensation, provided we do not publicly identify you without permission.

The remaining Terms of Use sections (copyright/DMCA complaints, termination, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, governing law and venue, changes, and contact) were truncated in the source handoff and will be published here once the remaining content is provided. Until then this page is incomplete and is not the final, binding Terms of Use.
