TERMS
OF USE.

HockeyBook – the website hockeybook.online, the web app app.hockeybook.online and the mobile apps for iOS and Android (the “Service”) – is operated by RS SKALA s.r.o., Company ID 23027495, with its registered office at Nové sady 988/2, Staré Brno, 602 00 Brno, Czech Republic, registered in the Commercial Register kept by the Regional Court in Brno, section C, file 144050 (“we”). Contact: info@hockeybook.online.

By registering an account or using the Service you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. How we process personal data is described in the Privacy Policy. The Czech version of these terms is binding; this is a translation.

HockeyBook is a hockey social network and a platform for organizing hockey. Players have profiles, statistics and player cards. Teams and organizations – leagues, clubs, academies and organizers of trainings and camps – plan events, keep rosters, game sheets, standings and payment records and communicate in chat. Users and organizations share photos, videos, articles and other content.

Content in the Service is created by users and organizations, and whoever posts it is responsible for it. We store it, secure it and display it according to the visibility settings.

• You may create an account yourself from the age of 15. Younger players have their account created and managed by a parent or other legal guardian (a dependent account), or by an organization with the guardian’s consent.
• Provide truthful information. Each person should have one account and must not impersonate anyone else.
• Keep your login details safe and tell us immediately about any misuse of your account. You are responsible for activity under your account.

An organization (league, club, team, academy or other organizer) acts in the Service through its administrators. Whoever creates or manages an organization declares that they are authorized to do so.

• An organization receives the data of players who play in it, follow it or registered on its invitation (see the Privacy Policy) and handles it as an independent data controller solely for the purpose of playing and organizing the sport.
• An organization is responsible for the data and content it puts into the Service – rosters, game sheets, player ratings, photos, videos and documents – and for having a legal basis for it, in particular the consent of legal guardians for children and explicit consent for health data.
• An organization informs its players how it uses their data, for example through its own privacy policy and terms of participation.
• An organization must not sell data obtained from the Service, pass it to other parties for their own purposes or use it for unsolicited marketing.

Content you upload to the Service – photos, videos, texts, messages, logos and documents – remains yours. By uploading it you grant us a free, non-exclusive, worldwide licence to store, display and distribute it within the Service according to the selected visibility and to adapt it as needed to run the Service, for example to create thumbnails, highlights, video exports with a watermark or share links. The licence lasts as long as the content is in the Service.

We will use your content or likeness to promote HockeyBook outside the Service, for example on our website or social networks, only with your permission.

By uploading content you confirm that you hold the necessary rights to it, including the permission of the people depicted where required.

In the Service it is prohibited to:

• upload or share illegal content, in particular content infringing copyright, personality or other rights of others;
• share hateful, discriminatory, vulgar, sexual or violent content, harass, bully or threaten;
• publish other people’s contact details, documents or health information without authorization;
• impersonate another person, team or organization;
• send spam and unsolicited advertising;
• attempt unauthorized access to the system or other people’s accounts, scrape data in bulk or disrupt the operation of the Service.

There is zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users.

• Reporting. Report content or users directly in the app (the Report function) or by e-mail to report@hockeybook.online. Anyone can report illegal content, even without an account – tell us which content it is (a link), why you consider it illegal, and your name and e-mail.
• Handling. We review reports within 24 hours. Content that breaks the law or these terms is removed or its visibility is restricted.
• Automated check. Uploaded images are automatically checked for nudity; an image that fails the check is not saved. All other decisions are made by a person.
• Measures. Depending on the severity we may remove content, restrict its visibility or temporarily block or close an account. We tell the affected user the reason; they may contest the decision at info@hockeybook.online and we will review it.
• Blocking. You can block another user – they will not see your content and cannot message you. Blocking takes effect immediately.
• Point of contact. Our point of contact for users and public authorities under Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (Digital Services Act) is info@hockeybook.online. We communicate in Czech, Slovak and English.

We do not check content posted by users in advance and are not liable for it until we learn that it is illegal; we then act without undue delay.

We share registration and profile data with organizations you play in, follow or that invited you to HockeyBook, for the purpose of playing. Details, including your rights and visibility settings, are in the Privacy Policy.

The Service is free for players. Payments between players and organizations (entry fees, membership fees, game fees) do not go through HockeyBook – the Service only records them. The organization is responsible for payments and their settlement.

We develop the Service continuously and may change, add or discontinue features. We aim for uninterrupted operation but do not guarantee it – the Service may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, updates or outages.

We provide the Service as is. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for content posted by users and organizations, for the accuracy of results, statistics and data taken from public sources, or for damage caused by outages of the Service or loss of data. We do not exclude liability that cannot be excluded, in particular for harm to a person’s natural rights and for damage caused intentionally or by gross negligence (Section 2898 of the Czech Civil Code).

You are liable for damage you cause by breaching these terms.

You can close your account at any time in the app (Settings → Delete account) or as described on the Account deletion page. We then anonymize your personal data; results and statistics remain in the competition history without a link to you.

If you breach these terms we may suspend or close your account, in serious cases without prior notice. We will tell you the reason.

The Service, its design, code, the HockeyBook name and logo are protected by intellectual property rights. You may not copy, modify or use them beyond the normal use of the Service without our consent. Use the public API only according to its documentation and with an assigned key.

We may change these terms, in particular because of new features or changes in the law. We will inform you of material changes reasonably in advance in the app or by e-mail. If you do not agree with a change, you can close your account; by continuing to use the Service after the change takes effect you accept it.

These terms are governed by the laws of the Czech Republic and disputes are resolved by the competent courts of the Czech Republic. This does not affect the rights guaranteed to consumers by the laws of their country of habitual residence.

Consumers may also resolve disputes out of court with the Czech Trade Inspection Authority (adr.coi.cz).
