The ground rules for using TeeSync — written to be read, not skimmed past.
These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and TeeSync ("TeeSync," "we," "us," or "our") covering the TeeSync iPhone app, this website, and all related services (the "Service"). By downloading, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, don't use the Service.
Please note: Section 13 limits our liability, and Section 16 explains how disputes are resolved, including an agreement to resolve most disputes individually rather than through a class action.
You must be at least 13 years old to use TeeSync, and at least 18 (or the age of majority where you live) to book a tee time or make a payment. If you're between 13 and 18, you may use the Service only with the involvement of a parent or guardian who agrees to these Terms. By using the Service you represent that you meet these requirements and are able to form a binding contract.
TeeSync helps groups find, coordinate, and book golf tee times through iMessage. A host chooses a course, date, and time, sends a TeeSync invitation to a group, collects accept/decline responses, and books the round on the group's behalf.
TeeSync is a booking and coordination platform, not a golf course operator. Tee time availability, pricing, course conditions, dress codes, pace-of-play rules, and on-site policies are set and controlled by each golf course, not by us. We are not responsible for the acts or omissions of any golf course.
Course availability, features, and geographic coverage may change. We may add, modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time.
You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide, for keeping your account credentials and device secure, and for all activity that occurs under your account. Tell us promptly at info@tee-sync.com if you believe your account has been compromised. You may not share, sell, or transfer your account.
You can delete your account at any time from your account settings in the app, or by emailing us. See the Privacy Policy for what happens to your data.
Depending on the course, payment is collected either through TeeSync's third-party payment processor at the time of booking, or directly by the course at check-in. TeeSync itself is free to download and use.
Where payment is collected through the app, you authorize us and our processor to charge your selected payment method for the amount shown at checkout, plus any taxes the course applies. You represent that you're authorized to use that payment method. We do not store full card numbers; payments are handled by a PCI-compliant processor.
Where the group splits costs, TeeSync may send payment reminders as a convenience. Settling up within your group is between you and your group — TeeSync does not guarantee, collect, or enforce payments between players.
Cancellation and refund policies are set by each golf course, not by TeeSync. Some courses allow free cancellation up to a stated cutoff; others charge a fee or are non-refundable. The applicable policy is shown before you confirm a booking — please read it.
You agree not to:
We may investigate and take action — including removing content, suspending accounts, and reporting to law enforcement — for conduct that violates these Terms.
The following applies because you obtained TeeSync through the Apple App Store:
The Service — including its software, design, text, graphics, the TeeSync name and logo, and all related trademarks — is owned by TeeSync and protected by intellectual property laws. We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app on Apple devices you own or control, for personal, non-commercial purposes, subject to these Terms.
If you send us feedback, suggestions, or ideas, you grant us a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license to use them without obligation or compensation to you.
The Service integrates with third parties including golf course booking systems, payment processors, weather providers, and Apple's iMessage framework. Their content and services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We're not responsible for third-party content, availability, or practices, and linking to a third party is not an endorsement.
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
We do not warrant that tee times will be available, that pricing or availability shown will always be accurate, that bookings will be error-free, or that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, or secure. Some jurisdictions don't allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TEESYNC AND ITS FOUNDERS, EMPLOYEES, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE — INCLUDING MISSED OR CANCELLED TEE TIMES, COURSE POLICIES, OR THE ACTS OF THIRD PARTIES.
OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE IN ANY 12-MONTH PERIOD WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID THROUGH THE SERVICE IN THAT PERIOD, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including liability for fraud, gross negligence, or death or personal injury caused by negligence. Some jurisdictions don't allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless TeeSync and its founders, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of a third party, including members of a group you invite or book for.
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access, with or without notice, if you violate these Terms, if we suspect fraud or abuse, or if we discontinue the Service. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including Sections 10, 12, 13, 14, and 16 — will survive.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.
Talk to us first. If you have a dispute, email info@tee-sync.com with a description of the issue. We'll try in good faith to resolve it informally within 30 days.
If that doesn't work. Any dispute not resolved informally will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, seated in Orange County, California, or by video or telephone where the rules allow. Either party may instead bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies.
No class actions. Disputes will be brought only in an individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. If this class-action waiver is found unenforceable, the arbitration agreement in this section is void and disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Orange County, California.
Nothing here prevents either party from seeking injunctive relief in court to protect intellectual property rights.
We may update these Terms as the Service evolves or as the law requires. When we make material changes, we'll update the "Last updated" date above and give notice in the app or by email before they take effect. Continued use after that date means you accept the revised Terms. If you don't accept them, stop using the Service and delete your account.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and TeeSync regarding the Service. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision isn't a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, agency, or employment relationship.
