Betwatch, Inc. Terms of Service
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using the services provided by Betwatch, Inc. (d/b/a Betwatch.io) (referred to as "Betwatch," "Company," "we," "us," or "our"), including but not limited to the website located at Betwatch.io and all related applications, tools, and services (collectively, the "Services"), you ("User," "you," or "your") acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Betwatch, Inc.
Your continued use of the Services signifies your acceptance of any changes or amendments to these Terms. We reserve the right to update or modify these Terms at any time by posting the revised version on the Services. It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must immediately discontinue your access to and use of the Services.
2. Service Description and Beta Features
Betwatch, Inc. provides informational tools and analytics related to sports betting markets through the Betwatch.io platform. While Betwatch, Inc. is a formally incorporated entity, certain features of the Services may be designated as beta, experimental, or early-access ("Beta Features"). Beta Features are provided on an as-is basis and may contain errors, be incomplete, or be subject to change or discontinuation at any time without notice. Features and functionality may be added, removed, or modified at the Company's sole discretion.
Betwatch, Inc. also publishes BlackJack Lab, a blackjack training and simulation application. BlackJack Lab has its own Terms of Use, which you accept inside the application and which are published at https://betwatch.io/BJL/terms. Those Terms govern your use of that application, including its subscription terms. These Terms govern the Betwatch.io website and the services offered through it. Where the two differ about BlackJack Lab, the BlackJack Lab Terms govern. A Betwatch account is a single account across both products.
Users acknowledge that data loss is possible when using Beta Features and that Betwatch, Inc. does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation of any portion of the Services, including Beta Features. While we welcome feedback and bug reports, we are under no obligation to implement any suggestions or to continue offering any particular Beta Feature. Your use of any Beta Feature is entirely at your own risk.
3. User Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years of age and of legal gambling age in your respective state, province, or jurisdiction to use our Services. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you meet these eligibility requirements, that you have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement, and that your use of the Services does not violate any applicable law or regulation. Betwatch, Inc. reserves the right to verify your eligibility at any time and to deny access to the Services if eligibility requirements are not met.
4. User Account and Registration
To access certain features of the Services, you may be required to register for an account. When creating an account, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information about yourself and to update such information as necessary to keep it accurate, current, and complete. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials, including your password, and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to immediately notify Betwatch, Inc. of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. Betwatch, Inc. shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to safeguard your account credentials.
4a. Paid Subscriptions, Automatic Renewal, and Cancellation
Some Betwatch products and features are sold as paid subscriptions or as one-time purchases. Where they are, the following applies. Prices, billing intervals, and any trial length are disclosed to you before you purchase, and are repeated in the confirmation we send you.
(a) Automatic renewal. Subscriptions with a recurring term renew automatically at the end of each billing period, and the payment method on file is charged, until you cancel. The renewal price and the renewal interval are the ones disclosed at purchase. One-time and lifetime purchases do not renew and are never charged again.
(b) Cancellation. You may cancel at any time. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the period you have already paid for, and you retain access until then. Cancelling is at least as easy as subscribing: where you subscribed online, you can cancel online, in a comparable number of steps, without contacting us by telephone or email.
(c) Notices we send you. For subscriptions billed by Betwatch, we will send: a purchase confirmation setting out what you bought, the price, the renewal interval and how to cancel; a reminder in advance of the renewal of any annual or other long-term subscription; a notice if a payment fails; advance notice of any price change, in time for you to cancel before it takes effect; and a confirmation when you cancel. These are transactional messages about your own purchase and are sent whether or not you have opted into marketing.
(d) Purchases made through an app store. Where a subscription is purchased as an in-app purchase, the app store (for example Apple) is the seller. That store takes the payment, manages the renewal, sends its own receipts and renewal notices, runs its own price-change consent process, and handles refunds under its own policy. Cancellation is made through your account settings with that store, not with us, and we cannot reverse a charge made by it.
(e) Price changes. We may change prices for future billing periods. We will not apply a new price to a period you have already paid for, and we will notify you before a change takes effect so that you can cancel if you do not wish to continue.
(f) Refunds. Refund terms for a particular product are stated in that product's terms. Purchases made through an app store are refunded by that store under its policy.
(g) Rights you have regardless of this section. Nothing in these Terms removes a refund, cancellation, or withdrawal right that the law gives you where you live. Consumers in the European Union and the United Kingdom have a statutory right to withdraw from a purchase of digital content within 14 days, subject to any acknowledgement given at checkout when immediate access is requested. Residents of certain U.S. states have additional cancellation and notice rights under state automatic-renewal laws. Those rights apply whatever this section says.
5. Privacy and Data
Your privacy is important to us. By using the Services, you agree to our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, store, and disclose your information. The Privacy Policy is incorporated by reference into these Terms. You acknowledge and understand the risks associated with transmitting personal information over the internet.
