If you upload a video containing music or other copyrighted audio, FlipSide may process and store that video as part of providing the Service, but you are responsible for ensuring that you have the necessary rights or licenses to use that music.

FlipSide does not provide users with a license to use copyrighted music.

Users should not assume that music obtained from another application, streaming service, social-media platform, website, personal library, or other source may legally be incorporated into a video uploaded to FlipSide.

Any copyright claim, infringement allegation, licensing dispute, takedown request, legal action, damages, or other legal consequence arising from music or other copyrighted material included in a user’s uploaded content is the responsibility of the user who uploaded that content.

A person who has not been approved as a follower may receive limited information such as:

  • Athlete name;
  • Profile picture;
  • Sport;
  • Athlete tier;
  • Limited profile information; and
  • Other preview information.

After an athlete approves a follow request, the approved follower may access additional athlete information and content according to the Service’s functionality.

Certain competition entries, leaderboards, previews, or other platform features may have different visibility rules.

14. Children’s Privacy

FlipSide is intended for users aged 10 and older.

Because the Service may be used by minors, parents and legal guardians are encouraged to supervise their children’s use of FlipSide.

We may collect information from younger users where permitted by applicable law and where the necessary consent or authorization has been obtained.

Where applicable law requires verifiable parental consent before collecting or processing certain information from a child, FlipSide will take the measures required by applicable law.

Parents or legal guardians who believe that a child has provided personal information in violation of applicable requirements may contact us using the contact information below.

The SOW contemplates possible age-verification and parental-consent mechanisms, including restricted visibility for underage users, as the platform develops.

  • Provide requested features;
  • Maintain security;
  • Resolve disputes;

  • Fulfill other legitimate business purposes.

When information is no longer reasonably required, we may delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it, subject to applicable legal and technical requirements.

16. Account Deletion

You may request deletion of your account through the available account-management functionality or by contacting FlipSide.

When an account is deleted, we may delete or anonymize associated personal information subject to:

  • Legal retention requirements;
  • Fraud prevention;
  • Security requirements;
  • Dispute resolution;
  • Backup systems;
  • Transaction records; and
  • Other legitimate legal or operational requirements.

Content that has been shared, incorporated into other systems, or retained in backups may not disappear immediately from every system.

17. Data Security

FlipSide uses reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

The platform architecture includes security measures such as secure authentication, encrypted password storage, authenticated sessions, OTP verification, API authentication, session expiration, unauthorized-access prevention, and login rate limiting.

However, no internet-based service can guarantee absolute security.

You are responsible for protecting your account credentials and should notify FlipSide promptly if you believe your account has been compromised.

Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, FlipSide will use legally recognized mechanisms to support such transfers.

22. Third-Party Services and Links

The Service may contain or depend upon third-party services, platforms, websites, payment systems, app stores, or other technologies.

Third parties may collect and process information under their own privacy policies.

FlipSide is not responsible for the privacy practices of independent third parties.

You should review the privacy policies of third-party services before using them.

  • Coaches;
  • Locations;
  • Personal contact information;

  • Other sensitive information.

FlipSide cannot guarantee that information voluntarily shared by a user will never be copied, recorded, redistributed, or otherwise used by another person.

24. Copyright and User Content

FlipSide respects intellectual-property rights.

If you upload photographs, videos, music, graphics, or other material, you are responsible for ensuring that you have the legal right to upload and use that material.

FlipSide does not currently provide a music library for videos.

FlipSide may respond to valid copyright complaints and may remove or restrict allegedly infringing content.
