Pilot terms of use

Eligibility and accounts

These terms govern your use of Tournova, a free tournament management service offered as a pilot. No payments are taken. You must be at least 18 to create an account. Keep your password confidential and your account details accurate.

Players of all ages may participate in tournaments, subject to each event’s rules. Players under 18 take part through an authorised adult organiser, as described in the Privacy Policy. Approval to play in a tournament does not grant permission to operate it.

Organiser responsibilities

Organisers are responsible for their events, venues, entry decisions, communications with participants and the information they enter. Before entering someone else’s information, tell them how Tournova uses it and obtain appropriate permission, including from a parent or guardian where required. Keep personal information, especially about children, out of public text such as titles, descriptions and venue fields.

Acceptable use and content

Do not submit unlawful, abusive, infringing or unnecessarily sensitive information, or attempt to access data you are not authorised to see. You keep ownership of your content and allow us to store, process and display it as described in the Privacy Policy.

Availability and safety

Confirm schedules, scores and entries with the organiser. The pilot may contain errors or be unavailable, including on poor venue wifi, so organisers should keep exports and an alternative way to announce changes.

Tournova does not replace supervision, medical advice, venue safety procedures or event insurance, and these terms are not an injury waiver.

Disclaimer and limitation of liability

The pilot is provided free, “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, including fitness for a particular purpose or uninterrupted, error-free operation.

To the extent permitted by law, Tournova is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential losses, or for lost data, results or opportunities, arising from use of the pilot. Total liability for any claim is limited to US$50. Nothing in these terms limits liability or rights that cannot lawfully be limited.

Suspension, changes and governing law

We may restrict access or remove content to address misuse, security risks or legal obligations. You may stop using Tournova at any time and request account deletion through Contact. If these terms change materially, we will ask you to accept the new version.

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Iowa, United States. They do not require arbitration or waive class actions.
