Terms of Service

Last updated: July 15, 2026 · Effective date: July 15, 2026

Not yet attorney-reviewed. These Terms reflect our current business details; the full templates still warrant an attorney's review before you rely on them.

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the SwingBook service at swingbook.golf (the “Service”), provided by SwingBook (Aron Ingebrigtsen, sole proprietor) (“SwingBook,” “we,” “us”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you don’t agree, don’t use the Service.

1. The Service

SwingBook is software that lets independent golf coaches create an account, build a public booking page, offer lesson packages and group classes, manage a student roster, track lesson progress, and accept payments from their clients. Clients (“students”) book lessons and sign up for classes as guests, without an account.

2. Eligibility & accounts

You must be at least 18 and able to form a binding contract to create a coach account. You’re responsible for the information you provide, for keeping your login credentials confidential, and for all activity under your account. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized use. Students do not create accounts; a coach who enters student information is responsible for it (see §4).

3. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Service for any unlawful, harmful, fraudulent, or abusive purpose.
  • Upload data you don’t have the right to provide, or that is false or misleading.
  • Attempt to disrupt, reverse-engineer, or gain unauthorized access to the Service.
  • Infringe others’ intellectual-property or privacy rights.

4. Coach responsibilities, student data & minors

Coaches own and are responsible for their own client relationships and for the lessons, classes, scheduling, and services they offer. You represent that you have the necessary rights and consent to enter any student or client information into the Service, that it is accurate, and that you will handle it in compliance with applicable laws (including privacy and anti-spam laws).

Minors: golf students are often under 18. If you enter information about, or communicate with, a minor through the Service, you are responsible for obtaining any consent required from a parent or guardian. You will not use the Service to collect data from minors in violation of applicable law.

5. Subscriptions & billing

SwingBook offers subscription plans: Free ($0), Amateur ($29/month), and Pro ($59/month), billed monthly through Stripe. By subscribing you also agree to Stripe’s terms. Fees are charged in advance on a recurring basis and auto-renew until you cancel. You authorize us and Stripe to charge your payment method for applicable fees and taxes. Plan prices and features may change with notice.

Founding Coach offer: the first 100 coaches to subscribe to Pro during the launch window receive Pro at $29/month for their first 12 months, after which the plan renews at the then-current Pro price (currently $59/month). The offer is limited to the first 100 redemptions and is subject to change or withdrawal for coaches who have not yet redeemed it.

Refunds: Subscription fees are non-refundable except where required by law. If you cancel, your paid plan remains active until the end of the current billing period and does not renew; we do not provide prorated refunds for partial periods. (Lesson payments between a student and a coach are handled by the coach — see §6.)

6. Lesson payments (Stripe Connect) — SwingBook takes no cut

Coaches collect payments from their own students (for lessons, packages, and classes) through Stripe Connect using a Stripe account the coach connects. For these transactions:

  • The coach is the merchant of record and keeps 100% of their lesson income — SwingBook charges no commission or per-transaction fee on it.
  • SwingBook is not a party to any transaction between a coach and their student, and does not hold, receive, or disburse those funds.
  • The coach is solely responsible for delivering the lessons/services, for any refunds, cancellations, chargebacks, or disputes with their students, and for any taxes on their lesson income.
  • Student payments are processed by Stripe and subject to Stripe’s terms; standard Stripe processing fees may apply to the coach.

7. Messaging (email & SMS)

The Service sends transactional messages (e.g., booking confirmations, reminders, progress reports) to coaches and to students the coach has permission to contact. If SMS is enabled, messages are transactional only, sent to recipients who have consented, and support STOP/HELP; see the Messaging Policy at swingbook.golf/messaging-policy. Coaches are responsible for ensuring they have the necessary consent to contact their students.

8. Shareable progress links

The Service can generate shareable links to a student’s progress report (an unguessable, non-indexed web page). The coach controls whether and with whom such a link is shared; anyone with the link can view that page. Do not include information you do not wish to be viewable by anyone holding the link.

9. Third-party services

The Service relies on third-party providers (including Supabase, Stripe, Cloudflare, Twilio, Resend, and a QR-code image service). Your use of those features may be subject to those providers’ terms, and we are not responsible for their acts or omissions.

10. Intellectual property

The Service — including its software, design, and content (excluding content you provide) — is owned by SwingBook (Aron Ingebrigtsen, sole proprietor) and protected by law. You retain rights to the content you submit and grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive license to host, process, and display it solely to provide and improve the Service.

11. Feedback

If you send us feedback or suggestions, you grant us a perpetual, royalty-free license to use them without restriction or obligation to you.

12. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

13. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SwingBook (Aron Ingebrigtsen, sole proprietor) AND ITS OWNERS AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE [12] MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR [$100]. (Attorney to confirm caps and any consumer-law carve-outs.)

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless SwingBook (Aron Ingebrigtsen, sole proprietor) from claims arising out of your content, your use of the Service, your client relationships (including any lesson payments, refunds, or disputes with your students), or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

15. Suspension & termination

We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms or use the Service in a way that may harm us or others. You may stop using the Service and request account deletion at any time; on request we will delete or return your data within a reasonable period, except where retention is required by law. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including §6, §10–14, §16) will survive.

16. Dispute resolution & governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.

The exclusive venue for disputes will be the state or federal courts located in Oregon, and you consent to their jurisdiction.

17. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will revise the “Last updated” date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Continued use after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

18. Miscellaneous

These Terms are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. We may assign these Terms (e.g., in a merger or sale); you may not assign them without our consent. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
