Fencing Manager – Terms of Use/Legal Policy

 FENCING MANAGER
TERMS OF USE / LEGAL POLICY
Last Updated: April 6, 2026

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Fencing Manager mobile application and any related in-app features, content, documentation, and user-directed outputs (collectively, the “App”) made available by The Fencing Coach LLC, a Virginia limited liability company (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), through Apple’s App Store.

By tapping “Agree & Continue,” you agree to be bound by these Terms and by the separate Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

These Terms are entered into solely between you and The Fencing Coach LLC. No officer, manager, member, owner, employee, contractor, developer, representative, or affiliate of the Company is a party to these Terms in any individual capacity.

Your use of the App through Apple’s App Store may also be subject to Apple’s applicable terms, including Apple’s App Store terms and licensed application terms. If a mandatory Apple term conflicts with these Terms, the mandatory Apple term controls to the extent of that conflict.

Please read carefully. These Terms include important provisions concerning eligibility, user responsibility, media and athlete data, unofficial outputs, disclaimers of warranties, limitations of liability, indemnification, dispute resolution, binding arbitration, waiver of jury trial, class action waiver, limitations periods, and restrictions on claims against individuals associated with the Company.

  1. ELIGIBILITY

1.1 Adult-Oriented App. The App is intended primarily for adult use in refereeing, coaching, club administration, training, and competition management. By using the App, you represent that you are at least 18 years old, or that your use is supervised and authorized by a parent, legal guardian, school, club, or other authorized adult who has authority to agree to these Terms on your behalf where permitted by law.

1.2 Not Directed to Children. The App is not directed to children under 13. If you use the App in connection with minors, including minor athletes, you are solely responsible for obtaining any required notice, consent, approval, or authorization and for complying with all applicable laws, institutional rules, school policies, club policies, venue policies, and governing-body requirements.

1.3 Capacity and Compliance. You represent that you have the legal capacity and authority to enter into these Terms and that you will use the App in compliance with applicable law.

  1. THE APP

2.1 Description. Fencing Manager is a fencing scorekeeping, officiating workflow, coaching, and competition-management tool. Depending on the features you use, the App may help you record bout information, manage pools or direct eliminations, manage rosters, track coaching observations, analyze performance, generate reports, annotate video, and create other user-directed outputs.

2.2 Storage and Sync Model. The App does not require a Company-side user account. Core App data is stored locally on your device and, if you choose to enable it, eligible data may sync through your personal iCloud account using Apple’s CloudKit framework.

2.3 No Guarantee of Availability. The App, any feature, and any integration may be modified, restricted, suspended, or discontinued at any time, with or without notice, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

  1. LICENSE GRANT AND RESTRICTIONS

3.1 Limited License. Subject to these Terms and your payment of any applicable fees charged through Apple, the Company grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download, install, and use the App on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, solely for your personal use or internal professional use in connection with fencing officiating, coaching, training, and competition administration, and subject to Apple’s usage rules.

3.2 Restrictions. You may not, and may not permit others to:
(a) copy, modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the App, except as expressly permitted by applicable law;
(b) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive source code from the App, except where applicable law prohibits restriction of that right;

5.3 Apple Services Disclaimer. The Company does not control Apple’s operation of iCloud and is not responsible for data loss, corruption, unavailability, delay, latency, partial sync, duplicate sync, storage limitations, authentication issues, or other issues caused by Apple services, device issues, operating-system behavior, account issues, storage limitations, or network failures.

  1. RULES, SCORING, COMPETITION, AND NO-RELIANCE DISCLAIMER

6.1 Support Tool Only. The App is a user-directed support tool only. The App does not provide officiating, legal, medical, educational, compliance, or professional advice, and does not replace independent judgment, official rulebooks, event procedures, or the decisions of referees, coaches, schools, clubs, leagues, tournament personnel, or governing bodies.

6.2 Third-Party Rulesets. The App may implement or reference concepts derived from third-party rule systems, including rules associated with organizations such as the FIE, World Para Fencing, NCAA, USA Fencing, or other governing bodies. Those organizations are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or responsible for the App.

6.3 Unofficial Outputs. All scores, clocks, penalties, classifications, analytics, bout records, reports, pairings, seedings, exports, video annotations, scouting outputs, rankings, recommendations, and other outputs generated by the App are dependent on user inputs, settings, assumptions, and software logic, any of which may contain errors, omissions, outdated rules, changed interpretations, incorrect configurations, or unintended behavior. Such outputs are unofficial unless separately verified and adopted by the appropriate human decision-maker.

6.4 No Warranty of Accuracy or Official Status. The Company does not warrant or guarantee that:
(a) any rules logic in the App is current, complete, correct, or suitable for any event;
(b) any configuration is appropriate for a particular competition, league, school, sanctioning body, or ruleset;
(c) any score, result, standing, seeding, classification, time calculation, penalty, bracket, report, export, or output generated by the App is accurate, complete, reliable, or official; or
(d) use of the App will satisfy the requirements of any competition organizer, referee assigner, school, league, federation, venue, club, or governing body.

6.5 User Responsibility. You are solely responsible for independently confirming the correct ruleset, settings, procedures, and official requirements for each competition, training session, or other use case, and for exercising your own judgment in any officiating, coaching, administrative, educational, or competition decision.

6.6 No Reliance. You acknowledge and agree that you are not relying, and have not relied, on any representation, warranty, promise, statement, omission, output, or result not expressly set forth in these Terms. You assume all risk of reliance on the App and all responsibility for verifying the correctness, legality, suitability, and official status of any output before using it in any competition, coaching, roster, administrative, educational, disciplinary, evaluative, or reporting context.

  1. COACHING, ANALYTICS, AND FRAMEWORK DISCLAIMER

7.1 The App may provide coaching tools, analytical tags, classifications, visualizations, scouting outputs, comparison tools, methodologies, frameworks, or other performance-related features.

7.2 These tools are provided solely for informational and coaching-support purposes. They do not constitute official rankings, certifications, medical advice, legal advice, educational advice, guarantees of performance, guarantees of development, or endorsements of any athlete, coach, referee, school, club, program, or institution.

7.3 You remain solely responsible for any decision to use or share coaching notes, evaluations, classifications, or athlete-related observations generated through or stored in the App.

  1. USER CONTENT, MEDIA, CONSENT, AND CONTENT RESPONSIBILITIES

8.1 User Content. The App may allow you to import, view, tag, annotate, export, and share videos, images, bout records, roster information, athlete profiles, notes, messages, tags, evaluations, and other user-provided or user-generated content (“User Content”).

8.2 Your Responsibility for Rights and Permissions. You are solely responsible for all User Content and for ensuring that you have all rights, permissions, consents, and legal authority necessary to create, record, possess, import, use, store, analyze, display, export, transmit, disclose, publish, and share that User Content through or in connection with the App.

8.3 Representations and Warranties. Without limitation, you represent and warrant that:
(a) you have obtained any consent, authorization, or approval required from athletes, parents or legal guardians, coaches, referees, schools, clubs, venues, event organizers, or any other affected person or entity;
(b) your use of the App and any User Content complies with applicable privacy, publicity, copyright, trademark, recording, surveillance, education, consumer-protection, and other applicable laws, as well as event, venue, school, club, and governing-body rules;
(c) you will not use the App to infringe any copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, educational, or other right of any person or entity;
(d) you will not upload, import, store, or share content you do not have the right to use; and
(e) if you use the App in connection with minors, you are solely responsible for obtaining any required notice, consent, or authorization and for determining what legal or policy restrictions apply.

8.4 Recording and Video Use. If you record, import, annotate, analyze, export, or share video or image content through or in connection with the App, you are solely responsible for compliance with all laws and rules relating to recording consent, event filming, school or club policies, venue restrictions, publicity rights, privacy rights, use of minors’ likenesses or performance footage, and jurisdiction-specific restrictions. Recording, consent, privacy, and education-related laws may vary by jurisdiction, and you are solely responsible for determining what permissions or restrictions apply where the content is created, stored, accessed, used, or shared.

8.5 Assumption of Risk for Content. You assume all risk and all legal responsibility arising from the creation, recording, possession, import, storage, annotation, export, disclosure, publication, transmission, or sharing of any User Content, including any claim involving privacy, publicity, copyright, trademark, defamation, educational records, minors, consent, surveillance, or recording laws.

8.6 No Pre-Screening or Routine Review. The Company does not pre-screen User Content before it is processed on your device, and because the App is designed as a local-first application, the Company does not ordinarily access or review User Content stored on your device or in your personal iCloud account.

  1. EXPORTS AND SHARING

9.1 The App may allow you to export or share bout records, PDFs, scouting reports, CSV files, video-related annotations, and other outputs. Exported or shared content may include names, notes, bout details, scores, tags, timestamps, analytics, or other information you entered or caused to be generated.

9.2 When you export or share content, you do so at your sole direction and risk. Once content is shared outside the App, its further handling is controlled by the recipient or destination service and is no longer governed solely by these Terms or the Privacy Policy.

9.3 You are solely responsible for determining whether any export, report, video-related output, or other shared content is appropriate, lawful, accurate, sufficiently verified, or permissible to disclose.

  1. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

10.1 The App, including its software, code, structure, organization, algorithms, interface designs, graphics, text, documentation, analytics methodologies, scoring logic, coaching frameworks, trademarks, service marks, and related materials, is owned by or licensed to the Company and protected by applicable intellectual property and other laws.

10.2 Except for the limited license expressly granted in these Terms, no right, title, or interest in the App or any Company intellectual property is transferred to you.

10.3 Third-party names, rules, logos, and marks referenced in connection with compatibility or descriptive references remain the property of their respective owners.

  1. FEEDBACK

If you provide suggestions, ideas, enhancement requests, bug reports, workflow recommendations, or other feedback relating to the App (“Feedback”), you grant the Company a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, sublicensable, transferable, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, distribute, display, perform, make, have made, sell, offer for sale, import, and otherwise use that Feedback for any lawful purpose without compensation, attribution, or restriction. You represent that you have the right to provide such Feedback.

  1. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND SOFTWARE

12.1 Apple and Other Services. The App may rely on Apple services including StoreKit, CloudKit, Photos, Files, and AVFoundation. These are subject to Apple’s separate terms and privacy practices. The Company is not responsible for the acts, omissions, downtime, interruptions, policies, or failures of Apple or any other third-party service provider.

12.2 Third-Party Software. The App may include or rely on third-party software components, libraries, frameworks, or open-source software that are subject to separate license terms. Where required, applicable notices, attributions, or license texts will be made available within the App, on the Company website, or upon request. Your use of those components may be subject to those separate terms.

  1. APPLE-SPECIFIC TERMS

13.1 These Terms are between you and the Company only, not with Apple, and the Company, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and its content, except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law or Apple’s mandatory terms.

13.2 Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance or support services with respect to the App.

13.3 In the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price for the App to you to the maximum extent permitted by Apple’s applicable policies. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App.

13.4 As between the Company and Apple, the Company is responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the App or your possession and/or use of the App, including product-liability claims, claims that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement, and claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar laws.

13.5 In the event of any third-party claim that the App or your possession and use of the App infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, as between the Company and Apple, the Company, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim.

13.6 You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo, not designated by the U.S. Government as a terrorist supporting country, and not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

13.7 Apple and Apple subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms.

  1. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE APP IS PROVIDED AS IS, AS AVAILABLE, AND WITH ALL FAULTS. THE COMPANY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, AND THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE OF DEFECTS.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE COMPANY DOES NOT UNDERTAKE ANY OBLIGATION TO PROVIDE MAINTENANCE, TECHNICAL SUPPORT, ERROR CORRECTION, UPDATES, UPGRADES, OR NEW RELEASES FOR THE APP, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

NOTHING IN THESE TERMS EXCLUDES OR LIMITS ANY WARRANTY, RIGHT, OR REMEDY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

  1. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE COMPANY AND ITS OFFICERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, AGENTS, DEVELOPERS, AND REPRESENTATIVES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR ENHANCED DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, DATA, GOODWILL, USE, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

THE COMPANY’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO THE COMPANY OR THROUGH APPLE FOR THE APP AND ANY SUBSCRIPTION DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM; OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100).

YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR DISSATISFACTION WITH THE APP IS TO STOP USING THE APP AND, WHERE APPLICABLE, SEEK ANY REFUND RIGHTS THAT MAY BE AVAILABLE THROUGH APPLE OR APPLICABLE LAW.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY. TO THE EXTENT SUCH LIMITATIONS ARE PROHIBITED, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS SHALL LIMIT OR EXCLUDE LIABILITY TO THE EXTENT SUCH LIABILITY CANNOT BE LIMITED OR EXCLUDED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

  1. NO PERSONAL LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION

16.1 No Personal Liability. You agree that any claim arising out of or relating to the App, these Terms, or the Privacy Policy shall be asserted solely against The Fencing Coach LLC and not against any individual officer, manager, member, owner, employee, contractor, developer, representative, or affiliate of the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no such individual shall have any personal liability arising from or relating to the App or these Terms.

16.2 Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company and its officers, members, managers, employees, contractors, licensors, agents, developers, and representatives from and against any claims, demands, actions, damages, judgments, settlements, penalties, fines, costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees arising out of or related to: (a) your use or misuse of the App; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) information or media you enter into, import into, export from, or share through the App; (d) your use of the App in connection with a competition, team, club, school, athlete, or event; (e) your violation of any law or third-party right; or (f) any dispute involving a score, result, rules application, athlete data, roster data, coaching analysis, exported report, or event administration in which your use of the App is alleged to have played a role.

16.3 Defense Control. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company reserves the right, at your expense where legally permitted, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, and you agree to cooperate with the Company’s defense of such matter.

16.4 Non-Shiftable Liability. This section does not require you to indemnify the Company to the extent a claim arises from the Company’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, or other liability that cannot be shifted by law.

  1. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; BINDING ARBITRATION; JURY WAIVER; CLASS ACTION WAIVER

17.1 Informal Resolution. Before filing any formal claim, you agree to first contact the Company at damien@thefencingcoach.com and provide a brief written description of the dispute and the relief requested. You and the Company agree to attempt in good faith to resolve the matter informally for at least thirty (30) days before either party commences arbitration or other formal proceedings, except where immediate injunctive relief is necessary.

17.2 Agreement to Arbitrate. Except as expressly provided in Section 17.5, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the App, these Terms, the Privacy Policy, any purchase, any subscription, any output generated by the App, or the relationship between you and the Company shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration on an individual basis, administered by the American Arbitration Association under its applicable Consumer Arbitration Rules. This arbitration agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce.

17.3 Individual Proceedings Only. YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, CLASS MEMBER, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, MASS, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.

17.4 Arbitration Procedures and Jury Waiver. Unless otherwise required by applicable law or applicable AAA rules, arbitration shall be conducted in English and may be conducted by telephone, video conference, written submissions, or, if an in-person hearing is required, in Virginia. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration agreement, except to the extent applicable law requires otherwise. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, FOR ANY DISPUTE PERMITTED TO PROCEED IN COURT RATHER THAN ARBITRATION, YOU AND THE COMPANY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY.

17.5 Exceptions. Nothing in this section prevents either party from: (a) bringing an individual claim in small claims court if eligible; (b) seeking temporary, preliminary, or emergency injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent imminent irreparable harm; or (c) bringing claims relating to intellectual property, misuse of proprietary technology, or unauthorized access in a court of competent jurisdiction.

17.6 No Arbitration Opt-Out. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, arbitration under this Section 17 is a condition of use of the App. No opt-out right is provided unless applicable law requires otherwise.

17.7 Severability and Non-Waivable Rights. If any part of this Section 17 is found unenforceable, the remaining portions shall remain in effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. If a court or arbitrator determines that a class, collective, consolidated, mass, or representative-action waiver cannot be enforced as to a particular claim or request for relief, then that claim or request for relief shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the remainder of this Section 17 shall remain enforceable. Nothing in this Section 17 limits any non-waivable consumer rights or remedies that apply under applicable law.

  1. GOVERNING LAW, VENUE, AND LIMITATIONS PERIOD

18.1 Governing Law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and applicable federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except to the extent the Federal Arbitration Act governs arbitration-related issues.

18.2 Venue. For any dispute not subject to arbitration, or for any court proceeding permitted under Section 17, you and the Company agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts located in Fairfax County, Virginia, and the federal courts located in the Eastern District of Virginia, and you waive any objection based on personal jurisdiction, venue, or inconvenient forum, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

18.3 Time Limit to Bring Claims. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any claim or cause of action arising out of or relating to the App, these Terms, or the Privacy Policy must be filed within one (1) year after the claim arose, or it is permanently barred.

  1. CHANGES TO THE APP AND TERMS

19.1 The Company may modify, suspend, discontinue, restrict, or remove all or part of the App or its features at any time, with or without notice, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

19.2 The Company may update these Terms from time to time. The Company will indicate the revised Last Updated date and may provide notice within the App or on its website. For material changes, the Company may require you to review and affirmatively accept the updated Terms before continuing to access or use some or all functionality of the App.

  1. SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION

20.1 Termination by You. You may stop using the App at any time and may remove it from your device at any time.

20.2 Termination or Suspension by the Company. The Company may suspend or terminate your license to use the App, or restrict access to some or all functionality, if the Company reasonably believes you have violated these Terms, created risk or potential legal exposure for the Company or others, or where required for legal, security, operational, business, or platform reasons.

20.3 Effect of Termination. Upon termination of these Terms or your license, the rights granted to you under these Terms will immediately end, and you must stop using the App. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including sections relating to intellectual property, feedback, disclaimers, limitation of liability, no personal liability, indemnification, dispute resolution, governing law, limitations periods, and this survival provision.

20.4 Data After Termination. Because core App data may remain stored locally on your device or in your personal iCloud account unless you remove it, you are responsible for managing, deleting, or backing up any data in your possession or under your control, subject to the capabilities of your device and Apple services.

  1. MISCELLANEOUS

21.1 Entire Agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company regarding the App, except for any additional terms that apply to purchases or services explicitly incorporated by reference.

21.2 No Fiduciary or Special Relationship. The Company provides software only. Nothing in these Terms or in the App creates any fiduciary, advisory, agency, employment, joint venture, partnership, school-administration, officiating-certification, coaching-certification, or other special relationship between you and the Company.

21.3 Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

21.4 No Waiver. The Company’s failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that provision or of any other provision.

21.5 Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without the Company’s prior written consent. The Company may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, financing transaction, or by operation of law.

21.6 Electronic Communications. You agree that the Company may provide notices to you electronically where permitted by law, including through the App, the Company website, or by email if you provide one.

21.7 Reservation of Rights. The Company reserves all rights not expressly granted in these Terms.
