Terms of Use

1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account, downloading the app, or using Lowman (the "Service") you agree to these Terms of Use (the "Terms"). If you don't agree, don't use the Service.

These Terms are a binding agreement between you and Lowman Golf LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Lowman," "we," "us," "our").

2. Eligibility

• You must be at least 13 years old to use Lowman. If you are under 18, you represent that a parent or guardian has reviewed and approved these Terms on your behalf.
• You must not be barred from using the Service under the laws of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction.
• You agree to provide accurate information when you create your account and to keep it up to date.

3. Your Account

• You are responsible for your account, your password, and all activity that happens under it.
• Don't share your password. Notify us at hello@lowman.golf immediately if you suspect unauthorized access.
• You may delete your account at any time from Settings → Delete Account. See our Privacy Policy for what happens to your data when you do.
• We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms (see Section 10).

4. User Content

"User Content" means anything you post, upload, or submit through Lowman — rounds, scores, captions, photos, comments, profile info, and similar material.

Ownership. You keep ownership of your User Content.

License you grant us. By posting User Content, you grant Lowman a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable license to host, store, reproduce, modify (for formatting and resizing), display, distribute, and otherwise use your User Content for the purpose of operating, promoting, and improving the Service. This license ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies already distributed to other users and copies retained in routine backups for up to 30 days.

Responsibility. You represent that you own or have the rights to post everything you post, including photos of other people and any course imagery. You're responsible for your User Content, including any consequences of posting it.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use Lowman to:

• Post content that is illegal, threatening, harassing, hateful, pornographic, defamatory, or that infringes anyone's rights.
• Impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation with a person, course, or organization.
• Post other people's private information (address, phone, etc.) without their consent.
• Upload malware, scrape the Service, or attempt to bypass security measures or rate limits.
• Use the Service to send spam, unsolicited promotion, or chain messages.
• Fabricate scores or create fake accounts to manipulate the feed, likes, or follows.
• Interfere with other users' ability to use the Service.

6. Content Moderation

• Reporting. Every post and comment has a Report option with categories (Objectionable, Harassment, Spam, Violence, Other).
• Blocking. You can block any user from the post menu. Blocked users cannot see your content or interact with you.
• Removal. We may remove content, suspend accounts, or ban users for violations of these Terms, at our discretion.
• No obligation to monitor. We don't pre-screen User Content, but we reserve the right to review, remove, or restrict access to any content at any time.

7. Intellectual Property

The Lowman name, logo, app, website, design, and all software powering the Service are owned by Lowman Golf LLC or its licensors. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to our trademarks or branding. Feedback or suggestions you send us are non-confidential and may be used by us without compensation.

Course names, course logos, and other third-party marks shown in the Service are the property of their respective owners and are used for identification purposes only.

8. Third-Party Services

Lowman relies on third-party processors (Supabase, PostHog, Sentry, Netlify, Google Workspace, OpenStreetMap Nominatim, Apple). Your use of the Service is also subject to those providers' terms where relevant. See our Privacy Policy for the full list.

9. App Store Terms

If you use the iOS app:

• These Terms are between you and Lowman, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content.
• Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and can enforce them against you.
• Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the app.
• You agree to comply with all applicable App Store Usage Rules.

10. Termination

You may stop using Lowman at any time and delete your account from the app.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, with or without notice, if we believe you've violated these Terms, if required by law, or if continued operation of your account creates risk for us or other users. On termination, the license you granted us in Section 4 ends, except as noted in that section.

11. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or accurate. Scores, handicaps, course data, and user-submitted content are not verified. Don't rely on Lowman as a handicap of record or official scoring system.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Lowman Golf LLC and its officers, members, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses arising from or related to your use of the Service.

Our total liability for any claim arising from or related to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose, or (b) USD $100.

Some jurisdictions don't allow these limitations; in that case, they apply to the maximum extent permitted.

13. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold Lowman Golf LLC and its officers, members, employees, and agents harmless from any claim or demand (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your User Content, your use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or any law or third-party right.

14. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising from or related to these Terms or the Service will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there. Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

15. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms as the product evolves. If the changes are material, we'll notify you in-app or by email before they take effect. Continued use of the Service after a change means you accept the updated Terms. The "Effective Date" at the top of the page reflects the most recent revision.
