HERD Services

The HERD Services provide a digital platform to manage and organize sports organizations and teams. The Services may be used by sports organizations or tournament organizers (each an “Organization”), team coaches and managers (each a “Team”), sports participants themselves (each a “Player”), or other members of a Player’s household (each a “Household Member”).

Players refers to sports participants that are either participants over the age of 13, or the parent or legal guardian of a youth sports participant who is under the age of 13. The Services may be offered by HERD itself, or through one or more of the Organizations or Teams who offer a branded version of the Services (an “Organization Site”) to their Players. Organizations’ and Teams’ use of the Services may be subject to supplemental terms agreed to directly with HERD that alter these Terms. Players’ and Household Members’ use of the Services may be subject to terms and/or policies of the third-party Organization or Club through whom the Services are made available. HERD is not responsible for the practices of Organizations or Teams that HERD does not own or control. If you are a Player or Household Member with questions regarding any of the additional polices or agreements contained on an Organization Site, please contact the related Organization or Team directly.

Payment and Fees

Some elements of the Services may be offered by HERD for a fee. The fees for such Services are posted on the Website and/or the App Stores. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, fees are subject to change without notice. You agree to pay HERD in advance the applicable fees for the Services provided by HERD under these Terms. If you elect to pay applicable fees with a credit card, HERD will bill your credit card for all fees and you hereby authorize HERD to charge your credit card or to charge any form of payment you have obtained to replace your credit card.

You will provide HERD with accurate and complete billing information including legal name, address, telephone number, and credit card or debit card billing information. If such information is false or fraudulent, HERD reserves the right to terminate your use of the Services in addition to seeking any other legal remedies. HERD is not responsible for any charges or expenses (e.g., for overdrawn accounts, exceeding credit card limits, etc.) resulting from charges billed by HERD. Each charge will be considered valid unless disputed by you in writing within thirty (30) days after the billing date. No adjustments will be made for disputed charges made more than thirty (30) days after the billing date. All fees will be paid in U.S. dollars and are due as set forth on the Website. HERD’s fees are exclusive of all taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities, and you will be responsible for payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties, excluding only United States (federal or state) taxes based solely on HERD’s income.

Subscriptions

By purchasing any Services that are sold as an ongoing subscription (each a “Subscription”), you acknowledge that your Subscription has an initial and recurring payment feature and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation of the automatic renewal of your Subscription and you acknowledge that your Subscription will be automatically extended for successive periods.

To cancel the automatic renewal of your Subscription at any time, you must do the following: Log into your account and under profile select “cancel subscription”.

Your renewal date will be the anniversary of your sign-up date after your initial term ends. For example, if you bought a three-month HERD Subscription on November 7th, your Subscription would renew for the same term on February 7th.

Subscriptions (Continued)

Another three months on February 7th. If you have a renewal anniversary date on the 30th or 31st of the month, your renewal date will be moved to accommodate months that do not have those dates. For example, if your Subscription was started on January 31st and had a one-month term, it will renew on February 28th (or 29th if it is a Leap Year), and thereafter your renewal date will be the 28th of each subsequent month.

If you cancel the automatic renewal of your Subscription, you may use your Subscription until the end of your then-current Subscription term. HERD may submit periodic charges (e.g., monthly) without further authorization from you, until you provide prior notice that you have terminated this authorization or wish to change your payment method within the 48-hour notice requirement. If you cancel the automatic renewal of your Subscription you will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the Subscription fee paid for the then-current Subscription period.

If HERD does not receive payment for a renewal prior to the date of renewal, HERD may, in its discretion, do one or more of the following: (i) demand full payment, (ii) charge any form of payment you have obtained to replace your provided form of payment (e.g., you have obtained a replacement credit card number), and you hereby authorize HERD to do so, and (iii) terminate or suspend your Subscription.
