1. About SQR1 Golf

SQR1 Golf ("we", "us", "our") is a golf performance tracking platform operated by Flinc Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales under company number 17448021, with registered address at 66 Paul Street, London, England, EC2A 4NA.

The service is accessible at www.sqr1golf.com and through related applications. These Terms govern your use of the platform in its entirety.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years of age to create an account. By registering you confirm you meet this requirement. You must provide accurate and complete information when registering and are responsible for keeping your credentials secure.

3. Account Types

SQR1 Golf offers two account types:

• Golfer accounts — for individual golfers tracking their own performance, with access to all core features.
• Coach accounts — for golf coaches and instructors. Coach accounts allow access to connected clients' performance data subject to client consent. Available as a free tier (up to 5 clients and 5 drills) or a paid Pro tier (unlimited clients and drills, with additional search functionality).

You may only hold one account per person. Creating multiple accounts to circumvent limits is prohibited.

4. Subscriptions and Payments

Certain features require a paid subscription. All prices are in GBP and include VAT where applicable. Payments are processed securely by Stripe. We do not store your card details.

Billing and trials: When you subscribe, you will be charged according to the terms presented at the time of subscription. Some subscriptions may include a free trial period, during which you will not be charged. If a trial is offered, the trial terms (including duration and whether it converts to a paid subscription automatically) will be clearly disclosed before you subscribe. You may cancel during any trial period without charge. For subscriptions without a trial, you will be charged immediately upon subscription.

Your statutory cancellation right: If you are a consumer in the UK, you ordinarily have a legal right to cancel a distance contract within 14 days of subscribing, under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. By subscribing to a paid plan without a free trial, you expressly request that we begin providing the Service to you immediately, and you acknowledge that:

• if the Service has been fully performed within that 14-day period (for example, where you have taken full advantage of a feature that completes in a single use), you lose your right to cancel once that has happened;
• if you cancel before the Service has been fully performed, you remain entitled to a refund, but we may deduct a reasonable amount reflecting the proportion of the Service already supplied to you up to the point you told us you wished to cancel.

This does not affect your rights during any free trial period, described above, or your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 in relation to the quality of the Service.

Renewal: Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period (monthly or annually) unless cancelled.

Failed payments: If a renewal payment cannot be collected, we will attempt to collect it again automatically over the following days. During this time your account temporarily loses access to paid features until payment succeeds or the subscription is ultimately cancelled. If payment cannot ultimately be collected, the subscription is cancelled: golfer accounts revert to the free plan; coach accounts are never converted into a golfer account and instead revert to the free coach tier. If you had more client relationships than the free coach tier allows, your five most recently established relationships are retained and any others are removed — you may resubscribe at any time to restore full access and re-establish removed relationships.

Cancellation: You may cancel at any time from your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period and we do not offer refunds for partial periods.

Account deletion: If you delete your account while an active subscription is in place, your Stripe subscription will be cancelled immediately and no refund will be provided for any unused portion of the billing period. What happens to your data next depends on whether your account has ever been reported by another user, or suspended or banned, at any point. If it hasn't, your account is deleted outright and immediately — there is no recovery window, and no way to reinstate it by re-registering or otherwise. Your points transaction history is separately retained for 90 days purely to allow us to resolve billing disputes, then automatically and permanently deleted. If your account has at any point been reported, suspended, or banned, your golf performance data and profile are still deleted immediately, but your account record, points history, and any reports, blocks, or message threads connected to it are retained for 90 days from whichever is most recent of the report, the suspension/ban, or the deletion itself — this window can extend if further reports or actions occur in the meantime. During that window, the email address and username associated with the account cannot be used to register a new account. In neither case can a deleted account or subscription be restored or reinstated once deletion has taken place; if you wish to use the Service again, you may register a new account once any applicable retention period described above has ended. Full detail on data retention is set out in our Privacy Policy.

Price changes: We will provide at least 30 days' notice before any price increase takes effect for existing subscribers.

Points: Points can be purchased as one-off bundles and are used to export personalised yardage maps — satellite course plots that you plot out yourself within the Service. Points are non-refundable once credited, have no cash value, and cannot be transferred between accounts.

Promotional offers: We may offer promotional pricing, discount codes, free trials or other special offers from time to time. These offers are subject to the terms communicated at the time of the offer. Only one offer can be applied to a subscription, and offers cannot be combined unless we explicitly state otherwise. If you enter a discount code, it replaces any free trial or other promotion that would otherwise apply, and you will be charged the discounted price immediately upon subscribing. In that case, the terms above for subscriptions without a free trial apply, including those relating to your statutory cancellation right. Discount codes can only be used for the plan they were issued for, have no cash value, and may be withdrawn or expire at any time. Some discount codes are shared by our ambassadors, golf professionals and coaches who are paid a share of the subscriptions from people who use their codes. Using an ambassador's code doesn't change your subscription or these Terms.

5. Coach and Client Relationships

Coach accounts are self-declared. SQR1 Golf does not verify that any user registering as a coach is a qualified golf professional, holds any coaching certification, is a member of any governing body, or has any relevant experience whatsoever. Coach account status is assigned solely on the basis of information provided by the user at registration. Clients are solely responsible for satisfying themselves as to a coach's suitability, qualifications, identity, and credentials before accepting a connection request or sharing any personal data with them. SQR1 Golf accepts no liability for any loss, harm, or damage arising from a client's decision to connect with or be coached by any user on the platform.

The following rules apply to all coach and client interactions on the platform:

• A coach may only access a client's data once the client has explicitly accepted a connection request.
• Clients may remove a coach's access at any time from their account settings, after which the coach immediately loses all access.
• Coaches must not use client data for any purpose other than providing golf coaching to that specific client.
• Coaches must not share, sell, or disclose client data to any third party.
• Only coaches can request clients. Coach-to-coach and client-to-client connections are not permitted.
• Coaches acknowledge that SQR1 Golf is a data-sharing tool only and does not confer any professional qualification, insurance, or accreditation.

SQR1 Golf is not responsible for the quality of coaching provided through the platform, the conduct of coaches or clients, or any disputes arising between them.

Coaches may optionally provide a PGA membership number on their profile. Where provided, this number is displayed publicly alongside a link to pga.info so that clients can verify it independently. SQR1 Golf does not verify PGA membership numbers or any other professional credentials — the number is displayed exactly as entered by the coach. By entering a PGA number, coaches confirm that it is accurate, current, and belongs to them. Entering a false or inaccurate number constitutes a breach of these Terms and may result in immediate account suspension.

5a. Training and Drills

Coach accounts can create drills, assign them to connected clients and publish them. Golfers on a paid plan can receive drills from their coach and save and rate drills that coaches have published. Drills are only shown to logged-in users.

• Your content — Coaches keep ownership of the drills they create, including text, photos and video links. By adding a drill you give us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, process and display it within the Service: to the clients you assign it to and, if you publish it, to logged-in coaches and members on a paid plan. This licence ends when you delete the drill or your account. If you duplicate a drill, this creates a new private drill with no ratings.
• What you may post — You must own, or have permission to use, everything you add to a drill. You must not upload photos or videos showing an identifiable person without their permission, include personal or health information about a client, link to anything other than YouTube or Vimeo content you are entitled to share, or add anything offensive, misleading, unlawful or promotional. We may remove any drill that breaks these rules, and repeated breaches may lead to suspension.
• Using published drills — Published drills are for your personal use within the Service. You may not copy, republish or sell them outside SQR1 Golf without the coach's permission.
• When access ends — Drills belong to the coach who created them. A drill assigned to you is removed if the coaching relationship ends or the coach removes it, and a saved drill is removed if the coach unpublishes or deletes it. If a coach's Pro subscription ends, their existing drills are kept but no new drills can be created while they have 5 or more. If a golfer's paid plan ends, drills already in their training are kept but new drills cannot be received or saved.
• Ratings — Members can rate drills they can open from 1 to 5 stars. Ratings must be honest and based on the drill. Coaches can't rate, and you must not rate your own drills, use other accounts, or offer anything in return for ratings. We may remove ratings that break these rules. An average is shown once a drill has 3 or more ratings.
• Reporting drills — If you think a drill is copied, unsafe or inappropriate, use "Report this drill". We keep a copy of the drill with the report and may unpublish or delete it, and repeated breaches may lead to suspension. The coach isn't told who reported it.
• Health and safety — Drills are general guidance. This includes Fitness drills, and drills published by SQR1 Golf itself (shown as by "SQR1"). They are not medical, physiotherapy or personal training advice, and they are not tailored to you. Coaches are responsible for the drills they write, and SQR1 Golf does not check or approve drills written by coaches. Before trying any drill, warm up, make sure you have enough space and that nobody is close by, and only do what is within your fitness and ability. Stop straight away if you feel pain, dizziness or discomfort. If you have an injury or a health condition, are pregnant, or are unsure whether a drill is suitable for you, get advice from a doctor or qualified professional first. You decide whether to do a drill and how you do it, and you do so at your own risk. Nothing in these Terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence.
• Coaches' responsibilities — If you're a coach, you are responsible for the drills and advice you give through SQR1 Golf. You must only post drills you reasonably believe are safe when done as described, include any important safety points, and not give medical advice. You are responsible for holding any qualifications and insurance needed for the coaching you provide. You agree to cover us for any claims, losses or costs that arise from drills or advice you provide.

5b. Your Safety and Your Actions

Golf and exercise are physical activities that carry a risk of injury to you and to others. You are responsible for your own actions and safety when using SQR1 Golf, including when practising, exercising or playing. This includes checking your surroundings before you swing, following the rules and safety guidance of any course, range or facility, and making sure you are fit to take part. Information in the Service, such as yardages, course maps, stats, targets and suggestions, is an estimate to help you practise and plan. It is not a guarantee, and you must not rely on it for your safety or anyone else's. Don't use the Service in a way that distracts you when that could be unsafe.

6. Reviews

Clients connected with a coach may leave a star-based review. All reviews are subject to moderation before publication. We reserve the right to decline or remove any review that in our sole judgement contains offensive or abusive language, makes false or defamatory statements, violates any applicable law, or is submitted in bad faith.

Coaches may post a single public reply to each approved review. Replies are subject to the same moderation standards.

By submitting a review you confirm it reflects your genuine experience and grant SQR1 Golf a non-exclusive licence to display it on the platform.

7. Messaging

The messaging feature is for communication between coaches and clients only. You may not use messaging to send spam, harass or threaten other users, share offensive or illegal content, or solicit personal financial information. We reserve the right to suspend messaging access for accounts that misuse the feature.

8. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use SQR1 Golf to violate any applicable law, infringe intellectual property rights, upload malicious code, attempt unauthorised access to the service, scrape or republish content without permission, create accounts to manipulate reviews or stats, or impersonate any person or entity. We reserve the right to suspend or ban accounts that violate these terms without notice or refund.

9. Accuracy of Data

SQR1 Golf calculates performance statistics and benchmarks from the data you enter. You are responsible for the accuracy of all scores, hole data, and other information you record on the platform. We do not verify, validate, or cross-check any data you input. Statistics, trends, and performance insights displayed are only as accurate as the data provided — if incorrect data is entered, the outputs will reflect that. SQR1 Golf accepts no liability for decisions made on the basis of statistics derived from inaccurate user-entered data.

Course information we provide. Some course information in the Service, including course names and locations, hole positions, tee and green locations, distances, par and stroke index, comes from third-party sources such as OpenStreetMap and is processed or added by us. We take reasonable care to make it accurate, but it may be incomplete, out of date or wrong, for example where a course has been redesigned, where several courses share one site, or where the source data contains errors. Distances are measured to one point per tee and green and are approximate. Please check course information against the course's own scorecard and signage, and tell us if you spot a mistake. Where you change course information yourself, for example by moving a tee or green on the planner, your version is used for your plans. Course data is © OpenStreetMap contributors and is available under the Open Database Licence.

10. Intellectual Property

All content, design, code and functionality of SQR1 Golf is owned by or licensed to Flinc Ltd. You may not reproduce or distribute any part of the platform without our express written permission.

You retain ownership of the data you input. By using the service you grant us a limited licence to store, process, and display that data as necessary to provide the service to you.

11. Data and Privacy

We collect and process personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms. We are registered with the Information Commissioner's Office under registration number ZC243032.

12. Availability and Service Changes

We aim to keep SQR1 Golf available at all times but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. The service may be temporarily unavailable for any of the following reasons:

• Scheduled maintenance — We will provide reasonable advance notice where possible, typically via email or in-app notification.
• Emergency maintenance — To address critical bugs, security vulnerabilities, or service failures, we may restrict access without notice.
• Security incidents — We reserve the right to immediately suspend all or part of the service to protect user data or investigate suspected security breaches.
• Force majeure — Events beyond our reasonable control including infrastructure failures, hosting provider outages, or other third-party service disruptions.

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features at any time. Where we make material changes we will provide reasonable notice where possible. No refunds or credits will be provided for temporary service interruptions or downtime.

Maintenance Mode: During maintenance periods, access may be restricted to authorized personnel or beta testers only. You acknowledge that we may implement such restrictions without prior notice when necessary for operational or security reasons.

13. Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot be limited or excluded by law. Nor do they affect your statutory rights as a consumer. Subject to that, we are not responsible for loss or damage that was not foreseeable, or that was caused by your breach of these Terms or by events outside our reasonable control. If you use the Service for business purposes (for example as a coach), we are not liable for loss of profit, business or opportunity. Subject to the first sentence, our total liability to you is limited to the subscription fees you paid in the 12 months before the claim.

14. Indemnification

If you use SQR1 Golf for business purposes, including as a coach, you agree to cover us for any claims, losses or costs (including reasonable legal costs) arising from your breach of these Terms, the content you post, or the advice or coaching you provide.

15. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. If you are a consumer resident in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may also bring proceedings in your local courts.

16. Changes to These Terms

Where changes are material, we will notify you at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of SQR1 Golf after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
