1. Agreement to Terms

1.1 Binding Agreement

These Terms of Service and Liability Waiver ("Terms") are a legally binding agreement between you ("User," "you," or "your") and Top Tier ID, LLC ("Top Tier ID," "we," "us," or "our"), governing your access to and use of the Top Tier ID Roster platform available at toptieridroster.com and all related services, features, content, and applications (collectively, the "Platform"). By accessing or using the Platform in any manner, you are entering into a contract with Top Tier ID and acknowledging that you have the legal authority to do so.

1.2 Acknowledgment and Acceptance

By clicking "I Agree," checking an acceptance box, creating an account, submitting information, or otherwise using the Platform in any capacity, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms in their entirety, including without limitation the limitation of liability provisions in Section 11, the indemnification provisions in Section 12, and the binding arbitration and class action waiver provisions in Section 13. If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of an organization or entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

1.3 Universal Application

These Terms apply universally to all user types accessing the Platform in any capacity, including: (a) team coaches and their authorized designees who create and manage team rosters ("Coaches"); (b) club directors and administrators who oversee multiple teams within a club organization ("Club Directors"); (c) parents and legal guardians of minor athletes who submit and manage their child's player profile ("Parents"); and (d) college coaches, athletic staff, scouts, talent evaluators, and recruiters who access roster pages to evaluate prospective student-athletes ("Recruiting Users"). Top Tier ID may, at its sole discretion, apply additional terms, policies, or guidelines to specific user categories, which will supplement and not replace these Terms. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and any supplemental terms, the supplemental terms shall control with respect to the subject matter thereof.

2. Description of the Platform

2.1 Nature of Services

Top Tier ID Roster is an online recruiting showcase platform that enables youth soccer clubs and teams to create digital recruiting rosters and makes those rosters accessible to college coaches and recruiters at tournaments, events, and through shareable links and QR codes. The Platform allows Coaches to input player data, allows Parents to consent to and submit their child's profile information, and provides Recruiting Users with a centralized, organized view of player information for evaluation purposes.

2.2 Technology Intermediary Only

The Platform is a technology intermediary only. Top Tier ID is not a recruiting agency, talent agency, placement service, sports agent, athletic advisor, or athletic program. Top Tier ID does not represent any athlete, parent, coach, club, or recruiting institution in any capacity. Top Tier ID makes no representation, warranty, promise, or guarantee, express or implied, that any athlete will be recruited, offered a scholarship, offered a preferred walk-on opportunity, admitted to any educational institution, considered by any college athletic program, or achieve any particular recruiting outcome as a result of using the Platform or having a profile displayed thereon.

2.3 Intended Use

The Platform is designed solely for use in connection with organized youth soccer programs operated through legitimate, recognized club organizations. Use of the Platform for any other purpose — including for sports other than soccer, for recreational or non-club programs, or for any commercial recruiting or placement purpose — is not authorized and constitutes a material breach of these Terms.

2.4 Right to Modify

Top Tier ID reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify, update, suspend, discontinue, or permanently terminate the Platform or any feature, function, or service thereof at any time, with or without notice to users. Top Tier ID shall have no liability to any user or third party for any such modification, suspension, or discontinuation. Your continued use of the Platform following any modification constitutes acceptance of the modified Platform.

3. Minimum Age Requirements and COPPA Compliance

3.1 No Users Under 13

The Platform is not directed to, intended for, or designed for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect, solicit, or retain personal information from children under the age of 13. No one under 13 may use the Platform or be listed on it. If we discover that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13, we will promptly delete such information from our records.

3.2 COPPA Compliance

Top Tier ID operates in full compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, as amended ("COPPA"), 15 U.S.C. §§ 6501–6506, and the Federal Trade Commission's implementing regulations. Coaches and Club Directors who use the Platform represent and warrant, as a condition of access, that they will not submit, upload, input, or otherwise cause the collection of personal information for any player who is under the age of 13. Any violation of this representation is a material breach of these Terms and may subject the violating user to legal liability.

3.3 Athletes Ages 13–17

Athletes between the ages of 13 and 17 (inclusive) are minors in most or all jurisdictions. The personal information of such athletes may only be submitted to the Platform by a parent or legal guardian through the Platform's established parent consent process. A Coach's acceptance of these Terms or use of the Platform does not constitute, and shall not be deemed to substitute for, individual parental or guardian consent for each minor athlete. Each parent or guardian must independently complete the Platform's consent flow before their child's information is displayed on any public-facing roster page.

3.4 Affirmative Duties of Coaches and Club Directors

By creating an account or using the Platform, each Coach and Club Director affirmatively represents, warrants, and covenants to Top Tier ID that: (a) no player under the age of 13 has been or will be enrolled on any roster created or managed through their account; (b) all parents and legal guardians of minor athletes on their team will be directed to complete the Platform's parent consent flow before their child's information is submitted or displayed; and (c) no minor athlete's personal information will be submitted to or displayed on the Platform without the prior, express, and informed consent of that minor's parent or legal guardian. These representations and warranties are ongoing and shall be deemed to be made continuously throughout the duration of the user's account.

4. Coach and Club Director Terms

4.1 Account Creation and Accuracy

To access certain features of the Platform, Coaches and Club Directors must create an account by providing accurate, current, and complete information as prompted by the registration process. You represent and warrant that all registration information you provide is, and will at all times remain, true, accurate, current, and complete. You agree to promptly update your account information to keep it accurate and current. Top Tier ID reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts that contain inaccurate, false, or misleading information.

4.2 Account Security

You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your account credentials, including your username, password, and any team-specific access passwords (including parent intake passwords). You agree not to share your credentials with any unauthorized third party and to take all reasonable precautions to prevent unauthorized access to your account. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account, whether or not authorized by you. You agree to notify Top Tier ID immediately at support@toptierid.com upon discovery of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. Top Tier ID shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this security obligation.

4.3 Authorization and Eligibility

By creating an account or using the Platform, you represent and warrant that: (a) you are at least 18 years of age; (b) you are a bona fide, currently active coach, assistant coach, team manager, or club director with a legitimate affiliation to the team or club organization you represent; (c) you have the legal authority and organizational authorization to bind your team, club, or organization to these Terms; (d) your use of the Platform does not violate any applicable law, regulation, or contractual obligation; and (e) you have not previously been suspended or terminated from the Platform or any related service.

4.4 Roster Management Responsibilities

Coaches and Club Directors bear full responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, and lawfulness of all information submitted to or displayed on any roster they create or manage. Specifically, each Coach and Club Director agrees to: (a) ensure that all player information submitted is accurate to the best of their knowledge; (b) obtain valid parental or guardian consent for each minor athlete before that athlete's information is submitted or displayed, using the Platform's established consent flow; (c) maintain the security of the parent intake password and distribute it only to verified parents and legal guardians of athletes on the team; (d) lock the team roster at the appropriate time in accordance with applicable tournament or league rules; (e) promptly remove any player's information upon a valid request by the player's parent or legal guardian or upon Top Tier ID's instruction; and (f) promptly notify Top Tier ID if they become aware of any inaccurate, misleading, or unauthorized information displayed on their roster.

4.5 Subscription and Payment

Access to certain features of the Platform is conditioned upon payment of applicable subscription fees. All fees are due and payable in accordance with the pricing and payment terms presented at the time of subscription. All fees paid are non-refundable, except as expressly required by applicable law or as stated in a specific written agreement with Top Tier ID. Top Tier ID reserves the right to modify its pricing at any time upon reasonable notice to existing subscribers. Your continued use of the Platform following a price change constitutes your acceptance of the new pricing. Failure to pay applicable fees may result in suspension or termination of your account and loss of access to the Platform.

4.6 Club Director Additional Obligations

Club Directors who subscribe on behalf of multiple teams bear an additional obligation to ensure that each team enrolled under their club account is operated in full compliance with these Terms. Club Directors are responsible for communicating the requirements of these Terms to each Coach within their organization and for taking prompt corrective action upon learning of any violation by a Coach or team under their account. Club Directors acknowledge that Top Tier ID may hold the Club Director accountable for violations committed by Coaches operating under the Club Director's account.

4.7 No Guarantee of Service Continuity

Top Tier ID does not guarantee that the Platform will be available at any particular time or for any particular duration. The Platform may be subject to downtime for maintenance, upgrades, or technical issues. Top Tier ID shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or inconvenience resulting from Platform unavailability, and no fee credits or refunds will be issued for periods of downtime unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing.

5.1 Eligibility to Submit

Only a parent or legal guardian of a minor athlete may submit the athlete's personal information to the Platform. By submitting a player profile, you represent and warrant that: (a) you are the biological parent or legal guardian of the athlete whose information you are submitting; (b) you are at least 18 years of age; and (c) the athlete is at least 13 years of age. Submission of a profile for a child under 13, or submission by someone other than a parent or legal guardian, is strictly prohibited and constitutes a material breach of these Terms.

By submitting your child's player profile, you grant Top Tier ID express, informed, and written consent to collect, store, process, and publicly display on the Platform your child's personal information, which may include without limitation: full name, photograph or image, jersey number, athletic statistics and performance information, graduation year, grade point average, height, dominant foot, playing positions, high school name, college commitment status, and contact email address. You further expressly authorize Top Tier ID to make such information accessible to any person who accesses the public-facing roster page associated with your child's team, including but not limited to college coaches, athletic staff, scouts, recruiters, and members of the general public who possess or obtain the roster link or QR code. You understand and acknowledge that once the roster is published, Top Tier ID cannot control who views, saves, or shares your child's information.

5.3 Public Nature of the Roster

YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTAND THAT TEAM ROSTER PAGES ARE ACCESSIBLE TO ANY PERSON WHO POSSESSES OR OBTAINS THE ROSTER LINK OR QR CODE. The roster is not protected by user authentication, and Top Tier ID does not restrict access to the roster based on any affiliation, credential, or identity of the viewer. By consenting to your child's inclusion on the roster, you accept and understand the fully public nature of the roster page and assume all risks associated therewith.

You may withdraw your consent and request removal of your child's information from the Platform at any time by submitting a written deletion request to support@toptierid.com with the subject line "Player Data Deletion Request." Top Tier ID will remove your child's profile from the active public roster page within 72 hours of receiving a valid deletion request, and will permanently delete all stored personal data associated with the profile within 30 calendar days, except consent records retained as described in Section 9.5. You acknowledge that Top Tier ID cannot guarantee that third parties who accessed and saved your child's information prior to deletion will delete their own copies of such information.

5.5 Accuracy of Submitted Information

You represent and warrant that all information you submit for your child's player profile is truthful, accurate, and not misleading in any material respect. Top Tier ID does not independently verify the accuracy of parent-submitted information. You acknowledge that Top Tier ID is not responsible for inaccuracies in player profiles and that any claims arising from inaccurate information you submit are solely your responsibility. You agree to promptly correct any inaccurate information in your child's profile.

5.6 No Recruiting Guarantee

Top Tier ID makes no representation, warranty, or guarantee that your child will be recruited by, contacted by, or offered any opportunity by any college athletic program as a result of being included on a Platform roster. The Platform is a display tool only. Recruiting decisions are made entirely at the discretion of college coaches and athletic staff, and Top Tier ID has no influence over such decisions.

5.7 COPPA Age Representation

By submitting your child's player profile, you affirmatively represent and warrant that your child is at least 13 years of age. You acknowledge that submission of information for a child under 13 is a violation of federal law (COPPA), these Terms, and Top Tier ID's policies, and that you bear sole legal responsibility for any such submission.

6. College Coach and Recruiter Terms

6.1 Agreement by Access

By accessing any roster page on the Platform — whether through a direct link, a QR code, a shared URL, or any other means — you affirmatively agree to be bound by these Terms in their entirety. These Terms apply to you regardless of whether you have created a Top Tier ID account. Your access to the Platform constitutes your acceptance of these Terms.

6.2 Permitted Use

Any use of the Platform or athlete data obtained therefrom for any other purpose is strictly prohibited.

6.3 Prohibited Use

You expressly agree that you will not:

Share, sell, license, transfer, or distribute player profiles or athlete data to any third party for any purpose;
Contact any athlete or athlete's family in violation of applicable NCAA, NAIA, NJCAA, or other governing body recruiting rules and regulations;
Use any automated tools, scripts, bots, scrapers, or other technologies to access, copy, extract, or compile athlete data from the Platform;

6.4 Governing Body Compliance

All recruiting contacts and activities undertaken by Recruiting Users in connection with athlete data obtained from the Platform must comply in all respects with the applicable recruiting rules and regulations of the NCAA, NAIA, NJCAA, or any other governing body to which the Recruiting User's institution belongs. Top Tier ID does not represent that athlete profiles conform to any particular governing body's standards, and it is the Recruiting User's sole responsibility to ensure that their use of the Platform and any resulting contact with athletes complies with all applicable governing body rules.

6.5 Heightened Care for Minor Athletes

Recruiting Users acknowledge that many athletes featured on Platform rosters may be minors under the age of 18. Recruiting Users agree to treat all athlete data — and particularly data pertaining to minors — with heightened care, sensitivity, and discretion. Recruiting Users agree to comply with all federal, state, and local laws governing the collection, storage, and use of personal information pertaining to minors, including without limitation COPPA and applicable state privacy laws.

6.6 No Endorsement

Recruiting Users' access to the Platform does not imply any endorsement, sponsorship, or affiliation between Top Tier ID and the Recruiting User's institution. Top Tier ID does not endorse any particular athlete, team, club, or recruiting program. Any representation to the contrary is strictly prohibited and constitutes a breach of these Terms.

Except as expressly provided herein, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Platform, or any breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof — including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate — shall be finally resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, which are available at www.adr.org.

THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable with respect to any claim, then this entire arbitration provision shall be null and void as to that claim only, and that claim shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction.
