Terms of Service for The Water Polo App

Effective Date: April 4th, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account, downloading, or using The Water Polo App (“App”), you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Activebeans (“we,” “us,” “our”). If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the App.

If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms, and references to “you” shall include that organization.

2. Eligibility

Users aged 18 or older may create an independent account. Users aged 13 to 17 may create an account but certain features may be restricted. Users under 13 (“Minor Athletes”) may use the App only after a parent or legal guardian has created their own account, linked the child's account, and provided verifiable parental consent as described in our Privacy Policy. By allowing a minor to use the App, the parent or guardian assumes full responsibility for that minor's use of the App and agrees to these Terms on the minor's behalf.

3. Children's Accounts and Parental Consent

Accounts for users under 13 are subject to the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Parents must provide verifiable parental consent before a child's account is activated. The collection, use, and disclosure of children's personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy. Parents may revoke consent and request deletion of their child's data at any time as described in the Privacy Policy.

4. Description of Service

The Water Polo App, provided by Activebeans, allows users to create personal and organizational profiles, score water polo games with live play-by-play updates, view game results and statistics, and connect with the water polo community. Profiles and game data are visible to all users through search or linked to water polo games and tournaments.

5. License Grant and Restrictions

8. User Data and Privacy

Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the App, you consent to the collection and use of your information as described in the Privacy Policy.

You retain ownership of the data you submit to the App. However, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free license to use, process, and display your data solely for the purpose of operating and improving the App. We may use aggregated, non-personally identifiable data for analytics, research, and service improvement purposes.

11. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ACTIVEBEANS DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

ACTIVEBEANS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, THAT THE RESULTS OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE APP WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE, OR THAT ANY ERRORS IN THE APP WILL BE CORRECTED.

You understand and agree that your use of the App is at your sole risk. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by you from Activebeans or through the App shall create any warranty not expressly stated in these Terms.

12. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL ACTIVEBEANS, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR ACCESS TO, USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP.

IN NO EVENT SHALL ACTIVEBEANS' TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE APP EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID TO ACTIVEBEANS IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100.00).

The limitations in this section apply regardless of the theory of liability, whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or any other legal theory, and even if Activebeans has been advised of the possibility of such damages. The foregoing limitations are fundamental elements of the basis of the bargain between Activebeans and you.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Activebeans, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from:

Your use of or access to the App
Your violation of these Terms
Your violation of any third-party rights, including intellectual property or privacy rights
Any content you submit, post, or transmit through the App
Your violation of any applicable law or regulation

Activebeans reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you. You agree not to settle any such matter without the prior written consent of Activebeans.

14. Reporting Misconduct

Users are encouraged to report any misconduct or suspicious activity to us at support@activebeans.com. We will investigate all reports and take appropriate action, which may include suspending or terminating accounts.

15. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

15.1 Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

15.2 Informal Resolution

Before filing any formal dispute, you agree to first contact us at support@activebeans.com and attempt to resolve the dispute informally within thirty (30) days.

15.3 Binding Arbitration

If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, or the breach, termination, or validity thereof, shall be settled by final, binding, and confidential arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator in the State of Texas. The arbitration may be conducted by telephone, online, or based on written submissions, as determined by the arbitrator. The arbitrator's award shall be binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

15.4 Class Action Waiver

YOU AND ACTIVEBEANS AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTIONS, AND CONSOLIDATION WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED.

15.5 Opt-Out

If you are an individual (not a corporation or other entity), you may opt out of the arbitration agreement by sending an email to support@activebeans.com within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms. Your opt-out notice must include your full name, email address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of the arbitration provision.

15.6 Time Limitation

Any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to your use of the App or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or it shall be forever barred.

15.7 Venue

If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, both parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of Texas, and waive any objection to venue in such courts.

Entire Agreement: These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Activebeans regarding the App and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.
Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
No Waiver: The failure of Activebeans to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
