1. Privacy & Security; Disclosure
Our Privacy Policy, which may be viewed at https://accelerategolf.com/privacy-policy/, describes how we use and share Personal Information (as such term is defined in the Privacy Policy), including any payment account information you may provide to us either for purposes of creating an Account, submitting an inquiry or to receive further information, updates and promotions about or related to the Service. Our Privacy Policy does not apply to any Personal Information contained within Customer Data that we collect and process only on your behalf when we provide the Service.
In providing you our Service, QSchool Sports™ will not sell any Personal Information contained in Customer Data. QSchool Sports™ will not retain, use or disclose the Personal Information you provide to us about your clients except for the specific purpose of performing our obligations under this Agreement, including providing and improving the Service under this Agreement, nor will QSchool Sports™ retain, use or disclose Personal Information about your clients outside of our direct business relationship with you or the legal entity under which you practice or are employed.
It is your responsibility to comply with all applicable privacy and data protection laws and to ensure that you have provided all required notices and obtained all necessary consents from your Users and your clients (including with respect to third parties’ access), and that your patients or your clients have agreed to the collection of their Customer Data and the access of their Customer Data by you, by us, and, where applicable, other third parties. Any sample documentation that is provided by QSchool Sports™ for obtaining consent is for illustration only, and you alone (and not QSchool Sports™) are responsible to ensure that such documentation is adequate and enforceable to obtain requisite consent (including with respect to clients who are under 21 years of age, consent from their parents or legal guardians). We will make no use of Personal Information that is not permitted by this Agreement or that is prohibited by applicable law. In the event that we receive a subpoena or other legal or court order compelling the disclosure of any of your clients’ Customer Data or any of your data, unless ordered to not do so by a court of competent jurisdiction, or unless our legal counsel advises us that prior notification is not required or in violation of applicable law, we will notify you of the subpoena or other legal or court order prior to disclosing the Personal Information or other data. We will make commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the Service in a manner that includes appropriate administrative, technical, and physical security measures designed to protect the confidentiality, availability, and integrity of Personal Information that is in our possession.
QSchool Sports™ reserves the right to modify its privacy policy in its reasonable discretion from time to time. Note that because the Service is a hosted, online application, QSchool Sports™ occasionally may need to notify all users of the Service of important announcements regarding the operation of the Service.

7. Charges and Payment of Fees
The QSchool Sports™ application is offered free for students and players. Coaches, instructors and professionals may use the application for free during an initial 30-day Free Trial Period, and thereafter shall pay all fees or charges to your account in accordance with the Order Form which outlines fees, charges, and billing terms that are in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable. The initial charges will include free registrations for a number of existing or “legacy” students; additional charges will be imposed if the requested number of existing or “legacy” students exceeds the amount set forth in the Order Form, or for new customer acquisition through the Service. Payments may be made annually or monthly, consistent with the Initial Term, or as otherwise mutually agreed upon. You are responsible for paying for all licenses added for the entire License Term, whether or not such store licenses are actively used. You must provide QSchool Sports™ with valid EFT, credit card or approved purchase order information as a condition to signing up for the Service. An Account Administrator may add store licenses at user’s request. Added store licenses will be subject to the following: (i) added licenses will be coterminous with the preexisting License Term (either Initial Term or renewal term); (ii) the license fee for the added licenses will be the then current, generally applicable license fee; and (iii) licenses added in the middle of a billing month or year will be charged in full for that billing month or year. QSchool Sports™ reserves the right to modify its fees and charges and to introduce new charges at any time, upon at least 30 days prior notice to you, which notice may be provided by e-mail. All pricing terms are confidential, and you agree not to disclose them to any third party.
8. Billing and Renewal
QSchool Sports™ charges and collects in advance for use of the Service. QSchool Sports™ will automatically renew and bill your EFT account or issue an invoice to you (a) every month for monthly licenses, (b) each year on the subsequent anniversary for annual licenses, or (c) as otherwise mutually agreed upon. The renewal charge will be equal to the then-current number of total licenses times the license fee in effect during the prior term, unless QSchool Sports™ has given you at least 30 days prior written notice of a fee increase, which shall be effective upon renewal and thereafter. Fees for other services will be charged on an as-quoted basis. QSchool Sports™’s fees are exclusive of all taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities, and you shall be responsible for payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties, excluding only United States (federal or state) taxes based solely on QSchool Sports™’s income.
You agree to provide QSchool Sports™ with complete and accurate EFT information, billing and contact information. This information includes your legal company name, street address, e-mail address, and name and telephone number of an authorized billing contact and Account Administrator. You agree to update this information within 30 days of any change to it. If the contact information you have provided is false or fraudulent, QSchool Sports™ reserves the right to terminate your access to the Service in addition to any other legal remedies.
Unless QSchool Sports™ in its discretion determines otherwise: (i) entities with headquarters and a majority of users resident in the United States will be billed in U.S. dollars and subject to U.S. payment terms and pricing schemes (“U.S. Customers”); all other entities will be billed in U.S. dollars, Euros or local currency and be subject to either U.S. or non-U.S. payment terms and pricing schemes at the discretion of QSchool Sports™(“Non-U.S. Customers”).
If you believe your bill is incorrect, you must contact us in writing within 60 days of the invoice date of the invoice containing the amount in question to be eligible to receive an adjustment or credit.
9. Non-Payment and Suspension
In addition to any other rights granted to QSchool Sports™ herein, QSchool Sports™ reserves the right to suspend or terminate this Agreement and your access to the Service if your account becomes delinquent (falls into arrears). Delinquent invoices (accounts in arrears) are subject to interest of 1.0% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is less, plus all expenses of collection. You will continue to be charged for licenses during any period of suspension. If you or QSchool Sports™ initiates termination of this Agreement, you will be obligated to pay the balance due on your account computed in accordance with the Charges and Payment of Fees section above. You agree that QSchool Sports™ may charge such unpaid fees to your EFT account or otherwise bill you for such unpaid fees.
QSchool Sports™ reserves the right to impose a reconnection fee in the event you are suspended and thereafter request access to the Service. You agree and acknowledge that QSchool Sports™ has no obligation to retain Customer Data and that such Customer Data may be irretrievably deleted if your account is 30 days or more delinquent.
10. Term of License; Termination upon Expiration/Reduction in Number of Licenses
This Agreement commences on the Effective Date in the Order Form, or the date of your registration to use the Service if earlier. Students and players who register for the Service may terminate their licenses at any time; upon such termination, QSchool Sports™ will notify any coaches, instructors and other professionals with whom such student or player has been taking lessons through the Service. Coaches, instructors and other professionals will initially license the Service for a thirty (30) day Free Trial Period, during which no fees will be payable. At the end of the Free Trial Period coaches, instructors and other professionals will be given the option to renew the license for an Initial Term of one year or one month by completing and signing our Order Form. The Initial Term will be as you elect in the Order Form or as otherwise mutually agreed upon, commencing on the date you agree to pay for the Service by completing the online Order Form or otherwise. If you do not elect an Initial Term, your subscription to QSchool Sports™ will end on the expiration of the Free Trial Period. Upon the expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement will automatically renew for successive renewal terms equal in duration to the Initial Term at QSchool Sports™’s then current fees, except that either party may terminate this Agreement or reduce the number of licenses, effective only upon the expiration of the then current License Term, by notifying the other party in writing at least five (5) business days (for monthly licenses) or thirty (30) days (for annual licenses) prior to the commencement of the following term. In the case of the Free Trial Period, notifications provided through the Service indicating the remaining number of days in the free trial shall constitute notice of termination. In the event this Agreement is terminated (other than by reason of your breach), QSchool Sports™ will make available to you a file of the Customer Data within 30 days of termination if you so request at the time of termination. You agree and acknowledge that QSchool Sports™ has no obligation to retain the Customer Data, and may delete such Customer Data, more than 30 days after termination. Data can be held by signing up for our data storage service option at the current yearly rate.
11. Termination for Cause
Any breach of your payment obligations or unauthorized use of the QSchool Sports™’s Technology or Service will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement. QSchool Sports™, in its sole discretion, may terminate your password, account or use of the Service if you breach or otherwise fail to comply with this Agreement. In addition, QSchool Sports™ may terminate a free account at any time in its sole discretion. You agree and acknowledge that QSchool Sports™ has no obligation to retain the Customer Data, and may delete such Customer Data, if you have materially breached this Agreement, including but not limited to failure to pay outstanding fees, and such breach has not been cured within 30 days of notice of such breach.

This Agreement may not be assigned by you without the prior written approval of QSchool Sports™ but may be assigned without your consent by QSchool Sports™ to (i) a parent or subsidiary, (ii) an acquirer of assets, or (iii) a successor by merger. Any purported assignment in violation of this section shall be void. Any actual or proposed change in control of you that results or would result in a direct competitor of QSchool Sports™ directly or indirectly owning or controlling 50% or more of you shall entitle QSchool Sports™ to terminate this Agreement for cause immediately upon written notice.
24. Dispute Resolution
In the event of a Dispute between you and QSchool Sports™(including any dispute over the validity, enforceability, or scope of this dispute resolution provision), other than with respect to claims for injunctive relief, the Dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association Commercial Arbitration Rules. The place of the arbitration shall be in Trumbull, Connecticut. In the event that there is any Dispute between you and QSchool Sports™ that is determined not to be subject to arbitration pursuant to the preceding sentence, you agree to submit in that event to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the State of Connecticut for the Judicial District of Fairfield or the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut. You agree that this Agreement and the relationship between you and QSchool Sports™ shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and the laws of the State of Connecticut without regard to conflict of law principles or the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods. Notwithstanding this, either party shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive or other equitable relief to protect or enforce that party’s Intellectual Property Rights in any court of competent jurisdiction where the other party resides or has its principal place of business.
25. Class Action Waiver
Any proceedings to resolve or litigate any Dispute in any forum will be conducted solely on an individual basis. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, consolidation of your Dispute with other arbitrations, or any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity or as a private attorney general are not permitted and are waived by you, and an arbitrator will have no jurisdiction to hear such claims. If a court or arbitrator finds that the class action waiver in this section is unenforceable as to all or some parts of a Dispute, then the class action waiver will not apply to those parts. Instead, those parts will be severed and proceed in a court of law, with the remaining parts proceeding in arbitration. If any other provision of this Dispute resolution section is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be severed with the remainder of this section remaining in full force and effect.
