Terms of Use
Effective Date: August 4, 2026
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Christopher Hansen, doing business as Diamond Dominator (“Diamond Dominator,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). They govern your use of the Diamond Dominator website and application (the “Service”).
Section 14 contains an arbitration agreement and a class action waiver that affect your legal rights. Please read it carefully. You may opt out of arbitration within 30 days.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service. If you are using the Service on behalf of a league, club, or other organization, you represent that you are authorized to bind that organization to these Terms.
2. Who We Are, and What We Are Not
Diamond Dominator is a software platform. We provide tools that leagues, clubs, and teams (each, an “Organization”) use to manage rosters, lineups, schedules, player registration, and payments.
- We do not operate youth sports programs. Every Organization using the Service is independent of us. We do not run leagues, employ or supervise coaches or volunteers, select or place players, set eligibility rules, schedule or supervise games and practices, provide facilities, or control any aspect of the programs your child participates in.
- The Organization sets its own rules. Registration fees, eligibility and age rules, roster decisions, refund policies, codes of conduct, background check requirements, and safety policies are set and enforced by the Organization, not by us.
- Your agreement with the Organization is separate. Waivers, releases, medical authorizations, and participation agreements you sign with an Organization are between you and that Organization. We may store a record of what you were shown and what you agreed to, but we are not a party to it.
3. Accounts
- Eligibility: You must be at least 18 years old to create an account. Children do not create accounts and cannot sign in to the Service.
- Parents and guardians: If you register a child, you represent that you are that child’s parent or legal guardian, or that you have that person’s permission to register the child and to provide the child’s information.
- Responsibility: You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and for all activity under your account.
4. Registration and Payments
- The Organization is the seller. When you pay a registration fee, you are paying the Organization, not Diamond Dominator. Payments are processed by Stripe and settle directly into the Organization’s own Stripe account. We never take possession of registration funds.
- Our fees. Diamond Dominator collects a fee on registrations paid through the Service by electronic payment. Organizations see the applicable rate in their Payments settings before enabling online payment, and choose whether to absorb that fee, add it as a separate line at checkout, or include it in the price they advertise. No fee is collected on registrations an Organization collects offline or on registrations with no amount due.
- Card processing. Stripe charges the Organization its own processing fee directly. We do not collect it and do not set it.
- Organizations and Stripe. An Organization that accepts online payment must complete Stripe onboarding and agrees to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement in addition to these Terms.
- Card data. Payment card details are entered directly with Stripe. We never receive or store full card numbers.
- Taxes and reporting. Because payments settle directly into the Organization’s own Stripe account, any tax reporting on those payments (including IRS Form 1099-K where thresholds are met) is handled between Stripe and the Organization. Each Organization is responsible for determining whether its registration fees are taxable in its jurisdiction and for collecting and remitting any tax that applies. Diamond Dominator does not calculate, collect, or remit sales tax on an Organization’s behalf and does not provide tax advice.
- Round-up gifts. Some nonprofit Organizations offer an optional round-up donation at checkout. The gift goes to the Organization, not to Diamond Dominator; the payment confirmation email records the amount. Whether a gift is tax-deductible depends on the Organization’s status — ask them, not us.
5. Refunds and Cancellations
- The Organization owns its refund policy. We do not set, review, or enforce refund policies, and we do not decide whether a refund is owed. Requests for a refund, a withdrawal, or a change to a registration go to the Organization.
- Refunds are issued by the Organization. Because funds settle into the Organization’s account, only the Organization can return them. We provide the tools; the decision and the money are theirs.
- We return our fee. When an Organization refunds a registration, the fee Diamond Dominator collected on that registration is refunded as well, in proportion to the amount refunded. We do not keep a fee on a registration that was given back.
- We have no claim on the Organization’s funds. Nothing in these Terms gives us the right to withdraw, hold, or reverse money in an Organization’s account.
6. Payment Disputes and Chargebacks
- Talk to the Organization first. Because the Organization received the payment and owns the refund policy, a dispute filed with your bank is decided between you, your bank, and the Organization. We cannot resolve it for either of you.
- Liability sits with the Organization. A disputed amount is charged back to the Organization’s Stripe account. Diamond Dominator does not front, guarantee, or insure disputed amounts.
- Stripe’s dispute fee is not passed to families. Where Stripe charges a fee for handling a dispute, that fee is charged to the Organization. We do not add it to any family’s balance.
- We waive our fee on a lost dispute. If a dispute is resolved against the Organization, the fee we collected on the affected registration is refunded to them.
- Evidence is submitted in Stripe. An Organization contesting a dispute assembles and submits its evidence through Stripe. We notify the Organization and link them to it; we do not submit evidence on anyone’s behalf.
7. Your Content
- You keep ownership. You retain ownership of the rosters, statistics, registration information, coaching notes, and photographs you provide (“User Content”).
- License to us. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, process, and transmit your User Content solely to operate and improve the Service and to make it available to the people you and your Organization have authorized to see it. This license exists so we can run the Service; it does not permit us to publish, sell, or license your User Content to anyone else.
- AI features. Certain optional features transmit team, roster, and statistical data to third-party artificial intelligence providers to generate insights. Player photographs are never sent to these providers.
- Anonymized data. We may create aggregated and de-identified data from User Content and use it to improve our algorithms and the Service. This data does not identify any individual, and we do not attempt to re-identify it.
- Your representations. You represent that you have the rights, permissions, and parental consents necessary to provide the information you provide, including information about minors.
- Feedback. If you send us ideas or suggestions for improving the Service, we may use them without restriction or compensation. This applies only to feedback about the Service, never to your User Content.
What this license does not include: we do not use player photographs, names, or likenesses for advertising, promotion, or any commercial purpose, and we do not license or sell them to anyone.
8. Photographs
- Only a parent or guardian may upload a player photograph. Coaches, volunteers, and Organization administrators cannot upload a photograph of a child.
- Who can see it. A player photograph is visible to that player’s own parents and guardians, to the staff and approved volunteers of that player’s team and Organization, and to authorized Diamond Dominator personnel for the support purposes described in our Privacy Policy. It is not visible to other families and is not public.
- What it is used for. Roster identification, features that rely on recognizing who is who, and — where an Organization participates in a tournament or sanctioning body that requires identity or age verification — providing that verification.
- No facial recognition. We do not and will not apply facial recognition, faceprinting, biometric identification, or automated tagging to photographs of minors, and we do not permit our vendors to do so.
- You can remove it. A parent or guardian may delete a photograph they uploaded at any time.
9. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- upload a photograph of a child you are not the parent or legal guardian of, or information about a child you are not authorized to provide;
- use another family’s or Organization’s information for any purpose other than the Organization’s legitimate operations;
- attempt to access accounts, rosters, registrations, or files you have not been granted access to;
- scrape, harvest, or bulk-export personal information about children or families, or systematically retrieve data from the Service to build a collection, compilation, or database;
- access the Service by any automated means — bots, scripts, spiders, scrapers, or data mining tools — except through an interface we provide for that purpose;
- reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Service, or create derivative works from it;
- interfere with the Service, probe it for vulnerabilities without our written permission, or use it to violate any law.
We may suspend or terminate access for conduct that violates these Terms or that we reasonably believe puts children, families, or Organizations at risk.
10. Assumption of Risk in Youth Sports
Athletic activity carries inherent risk of injury. Diamond Dominator does not organize, supervise, staff, or control any practice, game, tryout, tournament, or other athletic activity, and does not inspect facilities or equipment. Any assumption of risk, waiver, or release relating to participation is a matter between you and the Organization running the program. You should direct questions about safety, supervision, insurance, and injury to that Organization.
11. No Guaranteed Outcomes
The Service provides algorithmic suggestions, analytics, and lineup and defensive optimizations. These are informational. We do not guarantee game outcomes, playing time, player development, competitive results, or that any recommendation is appropriate for a particular child. Decisions about who plays, where, and how much rest with coaches and Organizations, who are responsible for exercising their own judgment.
12. Disclaimers
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING 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, or free of harmful components. We are not responsible for the acts or omissions of any Organization, coach, volunteer, or family using the Service.
The Service is not a backup service. While we take care to keep your information safe and available, we do not guarantee that User Content will be preserved, and you should keep your own copies of anything you cannot afford to lose.
Third-party services. The Service links to and works with services we do not control, including payment processing, mapping, and calendar providers. We provide these as a convenience, do not endorse them, and are not responsible for their content or conduct. Your use of them is governed by their own terms.
13. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, DIAMOND DOMINATOR WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, OR PERSONAL INJURY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL FEES DIAMOND DOMINATOR ACTUALLY COLLECTED FROM YOU IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
14. Dispute Resolution, Arbitration, and Class Action Waiver
Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights.
- Informal resolution first. Before starting arbitration, you agree to email us at support@diamonddominator.com with a description of the dispute and to give us 30 days to try to resolve it.
- Binding arbitration. If we cannot resolve it, any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules, rather than in court. Arbitration will take place in the county where you reside, or by telephone or video conference at your election. The arbitrator’s decision is final and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
- Class action waiver. You and Diamond Dominator agree to bring claims only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims or preside over any form of class proceeding.
- Small claims and injunctive relief. Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies, and either party may seek injunctive relief in court to protect intellectual property or to stop unauthorized access to the Service.
- Your right to opt out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement and class action waiver by emailing support@diamonddominator.com with the subject line “Arbitration Opt-Out” within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Include your name and the email address on your account. Opting out affects nothing else in these Terms and will not affect your use of the Service.
- Time limit for claims. Any claim arising out of or relating to the Service must be brought within one year after it arises, or it is permanently barred, except where a longer period is required by law.
- If this section is unenforceable. If the class action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim proceeds in court and the rest of this section continues to apply to all other claims.
15. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. For any dispute not subject to arbitration, you and Diamond Dominator agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in California. Nothing here deprives you of the protection of mandatory consumer protection laws of the place where you live.
16. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Diamond Dominator from claims, damages, and reasonable costs arising out of information you provide that you did not have the right to provide, your violation of these Terms or applicable law, or — if you operate an Organization — your programs, staff, volunteers, refund decisions, and dealings with families. This does not apply to claims arising from our own violation of these Terms or our gross negligence or willful misconduct.
17. Termination
You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you materially breach these Terms, if required by law, or if continuing to provide the Service would create risk to children, families, or Organizations. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including Sections 7, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16 — survive.
18. Changes to the Service and to These Terms
We may modify the Service or these Terms. For material changes we will update the Effective Date above and give reasonable notice through the Service or by email before the change takes effect. If you continue using the Service after a change takes effect, you accept the updated Terms. Material changes to Section 14 will carry a fresh opportunity to opt out.
19. Changes to Our Business
Diamond Dominator currently operates as a sole proprietorship. We may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, to a successor entity — including an entity formed to continue this business, or an acquirer of the business or its assets — without your consent. Your rights under these Terms are not reduced by such an assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent.
20. General
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and Diamond Dominator regarding the Service. If a provision is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture, employment, or agency relationship between you and us.
