Terms of Service

The Service is intended exclusively for users acting in the course of a professional, entrepreneurial, artisanal, or business activity (typically football agents, agencies, scouts, clubs and analysts). By creating an account, you declare that you are not a consumer within the meaning of Article 3 of the Italian Consumer Code (D.Lgs. 206/2005) and analogous European legislation. Consequently, consumer-protection provisions (including the 14-day right of withdrawal) do not apply to your subscription.

vAInz aggregates publicly available football data and proprietary models to produce scouting reports, player and team indices, fit-matching scores (Crack Index, Team Index, Fit Score, DAC), search tools, and PDF reports. Output is provided for informational and decision-support purposes only and does not constitute investment, legal, transfer-market or financial advice. Decisions you make on the basis of the Service are your sole responsibility.

Account credentials are personal and non-transferable. You agree to keep them confidential and to notify us immediately of any suspected unauthorized access at vainzsportanalysis@gmail.com.

The Service enforces per-plan limits on the number of registered and concurrently active devices (e.g. 3 registered / 1 active for Free and Pro, 5 registered / 3 active for Elite). Attempting to circumvent these limits — including sharing credentials with third parties — is a material breach of these Terms and may lead to immediate suspension or termination without refund.

The Service offers a Free tier and paid Pro / Elite subscriptions on three billing cadences: monthly, quarterly (every 3 months upfront) and annual (every 12 months upfront). Current prices and token allowances are published on the pricing page and within the Settings page when logged in. We reserve the right to change prices with at least 30 days' written notice (email); changes apply only to subsequent billing periods.

Auto-renewal. All paid subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing cycle unless cancelled before the period ends. By subscribing you authorise us, through our payment processor (Stripe), to charge the registered payment method at each renewal.

Upgrades. Cadence-up changes within the same plan (monthly → quarterly → annual) and cross-plan upgrades (Pro → Elite) are applied immediately with a prorated charge: the unused portion of the current subscription is credited and the new subscription is charged upfront.

Downgrades and cancellations. Downgrades to a lower plan and cancellations to Free take effect at the end of the current paid period. You retain full access until the period end; no refund is due for the remainder of the prepaid period.

Cadence restrictions. The billing cadence may only move upward on the same plan (monthly → quarterly → annual). On a downgrade from Elite to Pro, the new cadence cannot be shorter than the Elite cadence in effect at the moment of the request.

All subscription fees are non-refundable once the Service has been made available, unless required otherwise by mandatory law. This applies to monthly, quarterly and annual prepaid fees alike.

By starting to use the Service immediately after subscribing, you expressly acknowledge that the supply of the digital service begins before the end of any statutory withdrawal period and that you therefore waive any right of withdrawal you might otherwise have under European or national law (including, where applicable, Article 59(1)(o) of the Italian Consumer Code).

In the event of a chargeback initiated with your bank or card issuer, you authorize us to provide evidence of acceptance of these Terms, of use of the Service and of these waiver clauses to the payment processor and the issuing institution.

You agree NOT to:

• resell, redistribute, sublicense, or otherwise commercially exploit the data or output of the Service to third parties without our prior written consent;
• copy, scrape, harvest, mirror, crawl or systematically download any portion of the Service or its output;
• reverse-engineer, decompile or attempt to derive the source code, algorithms, scoring formulas, or training data of the Service;
• use the Service to train, fine-tune or otherwise create a competing dataset, machine-learning model or analytics product;
• circumvent rate limits, device limits, paywalls or other technical protection measures;
• use the Service in a way that infringes the rights of any player, club, agency, federation or third party.

All rights in the Service, including its software, design, brand, methods, algorithms, scoring formulas, derived indicators (Crack Index, Team Index, Fit Score, DAC), aggregated datasets, reports and documentation, are owned by or licensed to vAInz. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for internal business purposes only, subject to these Terms and to your subscription plan.

PDF reports generated by the Service may be shared with players, clubs or other counterparties for the purpose of negotiation, provided that the report is not materially modified, the vAInz branding is preserved, and no fee is charged to the recipient.

We source data from public providers (including but not limited to SofaScore, Transfermarkt and similar) and from our own modelling. While we strive for accuracy, the Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, timeliness, or non-infringement.

Player evaluations, projections and acquisition costs are statistical estimates and not guarantees of future performance, transfer outcome or market value. You bear full responsibility for any business or financial decision taken on the basis of the Service.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with the Service shall not exceed the total subscription fees paid by you to us in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

We shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, lost profits, lost data, lost business opportunities or reputational harm, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless vAInz, its directors, employees and contractors against any third-party claim, loss, damage or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the Service in breach of these Terms or applicable law.

We may suspend or terminate your account immediately, without notice or refund, if you breach these Terms, share credentials, abuse the platform, commit fraud, charge back a legitimate payment, or for any other reason permitted by law. Sections 5–10 and 13–15 survive termination.

You may close your account at any time from the Settings page. Closing your account does not entitle you to a refund of any prepaid period.

We may modify the Service (features, pricing, plan limits, supported leagues) and these Terms at any time. Material changes will be notified by email at least 30 days in advance. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance; if you do not agree, your sole remedy is to cancel your subscription before the effective date.

We shall not be liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including outages of third-party providers (Stripe, Supabase, Databricks, AWS), connectivity failures, attacks, regulatory action, or acts of God.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Italy. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Milan, Italy, save where mandatory consumer-protection rules apply.
