Terms of Use
The short version
- SightLine is an off-ice training aid. Train safely: pucks are hard and fast.
- Accounts are for parents/guardians and adults. Kids train under a parent's account and supervision.
- Keep the leaderboards fair and nicknames friendly.
- Tracking is very good but not perfect. Use the Undo and Missed net buttons.
1. Agreement
These terms are an agreement between you and SightLine Hockey ("SightLine", "we", "us") covering the SightLine app, website and coach dashboard (together, the "Service"). By using the Service you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you're agreeing on behalf of a child, you agree for both of you.
2. Who can use SightLine
- To create an account you must be 18 or older, or the age of majority where you live. A parent or legal guardian creates the account and adds players.
- Players under 18 may use SightLine under a parent's or guardian's account and supervision.
- Coaches and training facilities using the coach dashboard must be adults and are responsible for using player information only to coach those players.
3. Safety comes first
SightLine is used for off-ice shooting and stickhandling in places like garages, basements and driveways. Hockey training carries a risk of injury and damage. By using SightLine you agree that:
- You'll set up in a safe space: shoot into a proper net, keep people, pets, cars and windows out of the line of fire, and use a backstop where shots could miss.
- Adults will supervise children, especially when shooting.
- You'll protect your phone or tablet. Place it out of the shooting lane, ideally behind netting or to the side. We aren't responsible for devices hit by pucks.
- Players should warm up, use appropriate gear, and stop if they feel pain.
- You use the Service at your own risk. SightLine gives training feedback; it is not medical, fitness or professional coaching advice.
4. Your account
Choose a strong password you don't use anywhere else, keep it private, and keep your email account secure, since password resets and sign-in links are sent there. You're responsible for activity on your account. You can delete a player or your whole account anytime in the app.
5. Fair play and acceptable use
- Don't submit scores you didn't earn, or modify, automate or tamper with the app to change results.
- Public nicknames must not include real full names, contact details, or anything offensive, hateful or harassing.
- Don't use the Service to collect other players' information, or in any unlawful way.
We may remove scores or nicknames, or suspend accounts, that break these rules.
6. Tracking accuracy
SightLine uses your device's camera to estimate where pucks, balls and shots go, and the AI coach estimates body positions to score shooting form. Results depend on lighting, camera position and angle, background and equipment, and may sometimes be wrong. Scores, shot counts, speeds, form scores and tips are estimates for training purposes, not professional coaching or medical advice.
6a. Challenges and leaderboards
Daily and Weekly Challenges are for fun and bragging rights; there are no prizes. Only camera-tracked rounds count, and boards are grouped by the age group you choose, so please choose it honestly. A Weekly Challenge champion's public nickname may be shown in the app. We may remove scores that look implausible or break the fair-play rules.
7. Plans and payments
SightLine isn't open for purchase yet. When it is, a paid plan will be required, and every plan will start with a 7-day free trial. Prices, what's included and billing terms are shown before you buy; if you don't cancel during the trial, the plan you chose starts at the end of it. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled and can be cancelled anytime, effective at the end of the current billing period. Refunds are handled as described at purchase and as required by law. Purchases made through an app store follow that store's terms.
8. Our content
The Service, including the software, games, designs, logos and the SightLine name, belongs to SightLine Hockey. You may use it for personal training (or, for coaches and facilities, to train your players) while these terms are in effect. Your training data belongs to you, and you give us permission to store and process it to run the Service as described in our Privacy Policy.
9. Changes and availability
We're constantly improving SightLine and may add, change or remove features. We may update these terms. If changes are important, we'll notify account holders before they take effect. We try to keep the Service available, but we can't promise it will always be uninterrupted or error-free.
10. Disclaimers and limits of liability
To the extent permitted by law, the Service is provided "as is", without warranties of any kind, and SightLine will not be liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for injury or damage arising from training activities, equipment or property, except where such liability can't be limited by law. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer protection laws that can't be waived.
11. Ending use
You can stop using SightLine and delete your account anytime. We may suspend or end access if these terms are broken.
12. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Canada and of the province where SightLine Hockey is operated.
