Terms of Service

1. The Service

Birdie Buddy lets you log golf rounds, record shots, view strokes-gained statistics, import scorecard photos, and plan holes with carry distances and printable yardage books. We may add, change, or remove features at any time.

The Service provides data and practice suggestions. It is not in-person golf instruction, and we do not guarantee lower scores or any particular result.

2. Accounts

You must provide a valid email address and keep your login credentials confidential. You are responsible for activity on your account. You must be at least 13 years old, or the minimum age required in your province or country to consent to an online service.

3. Subscriptions and billing

Paid access is sold as a subscription billed in Canadian dollars (CAD). You pay when you subscribe.

• Monthly plan: $15 CAD per month
• Annual plan: $125 CAD per year (about 30% less than 12 months of monthly, which is $180 CAD)

Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel. Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not store your full card number. Applicable taxes may be added. See the pricing page for the same amounts.

4. Cancellation and refunds

You may cancel at any time through the Stripe customer portal linked from the Service. Cancellation stops future renewals. You keep access until the end of the current paid period.

Subscription fees are non-refundable, including partial periods, except where required by Canadian or British Columbia consumer protection law. If a charge is a billing error (a duplicate charge, a charge after you cancelled, or the wrong amount), email support@birdie-buddy.com within 30 days of the charge. We reply within 2 business days and refund confirmed errors in full to the original payment method.

Annual plan goodwill: if you cancel within 14 days of an annual charge (the first purchase or a renewal) and you request it, we will refund that annual fee.

Please contact us before filing a chargeback with your bank. The full policy, including what happens if a chargeback is filed, is on the Refund & Dispute Policy.

5. Your content

You retain ownership of rounds, shots, and photos you upload. You grant us a limited licence to host, process, and display that content solely to operate the Service for you — including using automated tools to parse scorecard photos.

Do not upload content you do not have the right to use, or content that is unlawful, infringing, or harmful. We may remove content or suspend accounts that violate these Terms.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse the Service, including attempting to access other users’ data, reverse engineer the Service except as allowed by law, overloading our systems, or using the Service to break the law.

7. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. Statistics and suggestions may contain errors.

8. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Birdie Buddy and its operators will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, or golf performance. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim, or $50 CAD if you have not paid.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, including liability for fraud or for death or personal injury caused by negligence where such a limit is prohibited.

9. Changes

We may update these Terms. We will post the new version on this page and update the “Last updated” date. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, cancel your subscription and stop using the Service.

10. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable there, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Courts in British Columbia have exclusive jurisdiction, except that you may have additional rights as a consumer in your province of residence.
