Terms of Service

You must be at least 13 years old and able to form a binding contract. If you use Paddlemap on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind it.

You are responsible for providing accurate information, keeping your password and devices secure, and all activity on your account. Do not impersonate another person or use another player’s account. Notify us at hello@paddlemap.app if you believe your account was compromised.

Paddlemap helps people find pickleball courts, view court information, check in, see activity, make play plans, message other players, create or join groups, and discover related listings such as tournaments or coaches. Paddlemap does not operate or control most listed courts. We do not guarantee court availability, hours, access rules, lighting, surface condition, safety, or the accuracy of any listing. You are responsible for following facility rules and deciding whether a court is safe and appropriate to use.

Court data may come from public sources, Paddlemap, or community submissions. Information can be incomplete, outdated, or wrong. Community-submitted courts may appear only after review. Verify important details yourself before you travel or play.

Check-ins are user-submitted and may expire automatically. They are not a guarantee that someone is still at the court. Wait-time reports are community estimates only. Play plans are informational and do not guarantee that another user will show up.

Paddlemap does not background-check users and does not guarantee anyone’s identity, intentions, or behavior. Use your own judgment when messaging or meeting other players. Meet in public places, tell someone where you are going, and leave if you feel unsafe. Paddlemap is not responsible for interactions that happen on or off the app.

You keep ownership of photos, messages, bios, court submissions, and other content you create. You grant Paddlemap a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, display, reproduce, process, moderate, and distribute that content as needed to operate the service. We do not claim ownership of your content beyond that license. You represent that you have the rights to submit it and that it does not violate the law or these Terms.

Content you post in public places — including court chat, public groups, public check-ins, public plans, and public profile fields — may be visible to other Paddlemap users. Do not post information you want to keep private.

You may not use Paddlemap to harass, threaten, bully, or sexually exploit anyone; post hate speech, illegal content, spam, fraud, or malicious links; impersonate others; dox or share someone else’s private information without permission; attempt to break or scrape the service; manipulate check-ins or wait times; submit false court information; post abusive or inappropriate imagery; or infringe intellectual property. We may remove content or accounts that violate these rules.

We may review reports, remove content, restrict features, remove users from groups, suspend or terminate accounts, and keep records reasonably needed for safety or legal reasons. We are not obligated to monitor all content, but we may act when we become aware of a problem.

Users can create public groups that are discoverable by others. Owners and moderators can run their community, including removing members and, where available, transferring ownership, but group rules cannot override these Terms or the Community Guidelines. Paddlemap may remove a group or its content if it violates our rules.

Court chats are community spaces for a court. Private groups and direct messages have a more limited audience. We do not promise that any conversation is confidential. Moderators and Paddlemap may still review reported content.

You can block other users and report users or content from in-app Report controls. Blocking limits that person’s ability to interact with you. Reports are reviewed by Paddlemap staff or moderators.

Paddlemap’s name, logo, software, user interface, graphics, and original content are owned by Olive Dating LLC or its licensors. You may not copy or use them except as needed to use the app. You keep ownership of your user-generated content as described above.

Sign-in may use Apple or Google. Maps and directions may open Apple Maps or other external apps. Linked websites and registration pages (for example a tournament URL) are not controlled by Paddlemap. Their terms and privacy policies apply.

We may change, interrupt, or discontinue features. The service may be unavailable because of maintenance, outages, or events outside our control.

Paddlemap is provided “as is” for recreational and social use. We disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement to the fullest extent allowed by law. We do not warrant that court data, activity counts, wait times, or other users’ statements are accurate or that play will be safe.

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Olive Dating LLC and its officers, employees, and partners will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or personal injury arising from your use of Paddlemap or from playing pickleball or meeting other users. Our total liability for any claim relating to the service will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or (b) twenty-five U.S. dollars. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limits; in those places our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted.

You agree to defend and indemnify Olive Dating LLC against claims arising from your content, your use of Paddlemap, your violation of these Terms, or your interactions with other users, except to the extent caused by our willful misconduct.

You may delete your account in the app at any time (Profile → Settings → Delete account). We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, create risk, or are inactive. After termination, licenses you granted us may continue for copies already made as needed to operate the service or comply with law.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. You and Olive Dating LLC agree that courts located in California will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes, except that we may seek injunctive relief in any jurisdiction to protect our intellectual property or users.

We may update these Terms. The “Last updated” date will change when we do. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised Terms.
