Terms of Service
In plain English
These are the rules for using Golfle. By using the site you agree to them. The short version: be respectful, don't try to break the game, and you understand that Golfle is provided free and as-is. Disputes are governed by Georgia law.1. Acceptance of these Terms
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) form a binding agreement between you and Antlr Creatives (“Antlr Creatives,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) governing your access to and use of the Golflewebsite, game, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).
By accessing the Service, creating an account, or using any of its features, you represent that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use Policy. If you do not agree, you may not use the Service.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you are a resident of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or any other jurisdiction with a higher minimum age for digital services, you must meet that higher local minimum (typically 16 years old in the EEA). By using the Service you represent that you meet the applicable age requirement and that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.
The Service is not directed to children under 13. See our Children’s Privacy Notice for details.
3. Your account
You may play the daily puzzle and unlimited rounds without an account. Creating an account (via Google sign-in or a magic-link sent to your email) is optional and is required only to save your stats across devices, appear on the leaderboard, and follow other players.
- You are responsible for activity on your account, including any guesses, follows, or display-name changes.
- Keep your sign-in method (your Google account or your email inbox) secure. Notify us promptly if you believe your account has been accessed without your authorization.
- You may not share your account, sell it, or transfer it to anyone else.
- You may delete your account at any time. See Account & Data Deletion.
4. License to use the Service
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your personal, non-commercial entertainment. All other rights are reserved.
5. Prohibited conduct
You agree not to do any of the following, and agree not to assist or enable any third party to do them, in connection with the Service:
- Use offensive, harassing, hateful, sexually explicit, or impersonating display names or content;
- Use bots, scrapers, headless browsers, or any automated means to access the Service or extract data;
- Attempt to access another user’s account or any non-public area of the Service;
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code or underlying ideas of the Service, except as expressly permitted by applicable law;
- Interfere with, overload, or disrupt the Service or its infrastructure (including by exceeding our published rate limits);
- Create multiple accounts to manipulate the leaderboard, defeat daily-puzzle limits, or evade a ban;
- Use the Service to violate any law, regulation, or third-party right.
See our full Acceptable Use Policy for additional rules and the consequences of violating them.
6. Display names and other user content
The only content you submit to the Service is your display name (and, indirectly, your guess history, follows, and stats). You retain ownership of your display name. By using the Service you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to display your display name and game results to other users (for example, on the leaderboard) for the purpose of operating the Service.
You may not use a display name that infringes on a third-party trademark, impersonates any person or organization, or violates the prohibited-conduct rules above. We may rename or remove a display name at our discretion if it violates these Terms or our Acceptable Use Policy, and we will notify you when we do.
7. Intellectual property
Golfle and all original content, features, and functionality of the Service (including the user interface, look and feel, graphics, code, and the structure of our underlying golfer database) are and will remain the exclusive property of Antlr Creatives and its licensors and are protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual-property laws.
References to professional golfers and golf tours are factual statements about real-world public figures and organizations. Golfle is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or in any way officially connected to the PGA Tour, DP World Tour, LIV Golf League, the Official World Golf Ranking, or any individual golfer. All trademarks and trade names are the property of their respective owners.
8. Third-party services
The Service is hosted and operated using third-party providers including, without limitation, Vercel (hosting), Supabase (authentication and database), and Google (Google sign-in). Your use of those providers in connection with the Service is also governed by their own terms and privacy policies.
9. Changes to the Service
We may add, change, suspend, or discontinue any feature of the Service at any time, with or without notice. We may also impose limits on certain features or restrict your access to parts or all of the Service without notice or liability.
10. Disclaimers
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that defects will be corrected, and we do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any golfer data, statistics, rankings, or other information presented on the Service. Golfer rankings and statistics are sourced from public data and may be outdated, incomplete, or incorrect.
11. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL ANTLR CREATIVES, ITS AFFILIATES, OR ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM (a) YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE SERVICE; (b) ANY CONDUCT OR CONTENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SERVICE; OR (c) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, USE, OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR CONTENT, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
IN NO EVENT WILL OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATED TO THE SERVICE EXCEED THE GREATER OF (i) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE, OR (ii) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100). YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE AND THAT THIS LIMITATION REFLECTS THE ALLOCATION OF RISK BETWEEN US.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you. In those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the smallest extent permitted by law.
12. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Antlr Creatives, its affiliates, and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claim, demand, loss, liability, damage, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to (a) your use of the Service, (b) your violation of these Terms, (c) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual-property or privacy right, or (d) any content you submit to the Service.
13. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, for any reason including violation of these Terms. You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnification, limitations of liability, and dispute resolution.
14. Governing law
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
15. Dispute resolution
Informal resolution first. Before filing any claim, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting us at antlrcreatives@gmail.com. We’ll do the same. If we can’t resolve it within 60 days, either of us may file a formal claim.
Forum. You and we agree that any unresolved dispute will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in the State of Georgia, and we each consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. You waive any objection based on inconvenient forum.
No class actions. You and we each agree to bring claims against the other only in your or our individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.
16. Changes to these Terms
We may modify these Terms from time to time. If a change is material we will provide reasonable notice (for example, by posting a notice on the Service or sending an email to the address associated with your account) before the change takes effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of the revised Terms constitutes your acceptance of those Terms.
17. Miscellaneous
These Terms (together with the Privacy Policy and the Acceptable Use Policy) constitute the entire agreement between you and Antlr Creatives concerning the Service. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign them freely.
