Terms of Service
Effective: Version 1.0
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and RingTime LLC ("RingTime," "we," "us"). Please read them carefully. Section 8 contains a binding arbitration provision and a class-action waiver that affect your legal rights.
1. Acceptance
By creating an account or using any RingTime product you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Data-Use and Consent Agreement. If you do not agree, do not use the products.
2. Eligibility and age
You must be at least 13 years old to create an account. We do not knowingly permit anyone under 13 to register, and we age-gate at signup. Users between 13 and the age of majority may use the product only in the minimal experience described in the Privacy Policy and may not enable advertising-related features. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you represent that a parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms on your behalf.
3. The service
RingTime provides equestrian results, tracking, and venue features, and, where applicable, show-management, entry, and payment features. Features may be enabled or limited by configuration, subscription, or contractual arrangement. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature at any time.
4. Accounts and identity
You are responsible for the accuracy of your account information and for safeguarding your credentials. You are responsible for activity under your account. We may link your identities across our products only where you have enabled unified-profile consent, as described in Privacy Policy Section 5. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized use.
5. Payments, refunds, and chargebacks
Where you transact through the products, charges, entries, and subscriptions are processed through our third-party payment processors, and amounts are server-authoritative.
Refunds and chargebacks are governed by the policy of the specific venue, show, or event organizer through which the transaction is made. RingTime operates the platform that facilitates these transactions and defers to the published refund, cancellation, and chargeback policy of the operating venue or show for that transaction. Where a venue or show has not published a policy, the transaction is non-refundable through RingTime except as required by law, and any refund must be arranged directly with the operating venue or show. RingTime is not the merchant of record for venue and show transactions and does not control venue or show pricing or refund decisions. Initiating a chargeback without first seeking resolution through the operating venue may result in suspension of your account.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to scrape, reverse-engineer, overload, probe, or interfere with the products or their security features; not to access data you are not authorized to access; not to use the products to violate any law or third-party right; and not to circumvent rate-limiting, bot-defense, or access controls. We may suspend or terminate access for violations.
7. Data and analytics
Your use of the products generates analytics events governed by your consent choices and the Privacy Policy. We monetize only aggregated and de-identified insight and hashed audience segments, not your identity.
8. Disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity, governing law, and arbitration
8.1 Disclaimer of warranties. THE PRODUCTS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE PRODUCTS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE, OR THAT RESULTS, STANDINGS, SCHEDULES, OR OTHER DATA WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE. YOU RELY ON THE PRODUCTS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
8.2 Limitation of liability. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, RINGTIME AND ITS OFFICERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PRODUCTS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE PRODUCTS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO RINGTIME FOR THE PRODUCTS IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD $100). SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
8.3 Indemnification. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless RingTime and its officers, members, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of your use of the products, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.
8.4 Governing law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to Section 8.5, the state and federal courts located in New Jersey have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute not subject to arbitration, and you consent to that jurisdiction.
8.5 Binding arbitration and class-action waiver. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the products will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, seated in New Jersey, rather than in court, except that either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court. YOU AND RINGTIME WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. You may opt out of this arbitration provision by sending written notice to the contact in Section 10 within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. If the class-action waiver is found unenforceable, the entire arbitration provision in Section 8.5 is null and void.
9. Changes
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be reflected in a new version, and where a change affects your consent we will re-prompt you. Continued use after the effective date of an update constitutes acceptance.
