THESE TERMS OF SERVICE (AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, THESE “TERMS OF SERVICE” OR THIS “AGREEMENT”) APPLY TO ALL USERS OF THE WEBSITE, APP, AND SERVICE, INCLUDING USERS WHO REGISTER FOR AN ACCOUNT, USERS WHO DOWNLOAD OR ACCESS THE APP, USERS WHO INPUT, TRANSMIT, OR STORE INFORMATION IN THE SERVICE, AND USERS WHO VISIT OR VIEW CONTENT MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE WEBSITE OR APP.

BY ACCESSING, BROWSING, REGISTERING FOR, DOWNLOADING, OR USING THE WEBSITE, APP, OR SERVICE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS OF SERVICE. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, DO NOT ACCESS OR USE THE WEBSITE, APP, OR SERVICE.

YOU MUST BE AT LEAST THE AGE OF MAJORITY IN YOUR JURISDICTION OF RESIDENCE TO USE THE WEBSITE, APP, OR SERVICE.

IF YOU ARE ACCEPTING THESE TERMS OF SERVICE ON BEHALF OF A CORPORATION, LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY, PARTNERSHIP, SOLE PROPRIETORSHIP, OR OTHER LEGAL ENTITY, YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND THAT ENTITY TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, IN WHICH CASE “YOU” WILL REFER TO BOTH YOU AND THAT ENTITY.

1. The Service

Swim Buddy is a software platform designed to support pool service businesses and other field service businesses. Depending on your subscription level, enabled features, device, and integrations, the Service may include tools and functionality relating to customer relationship management, scheduling, dispatching, route planning, invoicing, estimates, work authorizations, electronic signatures, team management, worker profiles, payroll-related records, communications, job tracking, notes, photos, check-ins, records management, and related business operations.

The Service is provided as a software and business operations tool only. Swim Buddy does not itself perform pool or field services, contract with your customers on your behalf, act as your employee or agent, or provide legal, tax, accounting, employment, payroll, insurance, compliance, or regulatory advice.

Your use of the Service is also subject to any additional product-specific terms, policies, notices, or rules that we may make available from time to time. If additional terms apply to a specific feature, those additional terms are incorporated into these Terms of Service by reference and will govern solely with respect to that feature in the event of a conflict.

2. Eligibility and Authority

You must be legally capable of entering into a binding agreement in order to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that:

• you are at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction,

• you have the full right, power, and authority to agree to these Terms of Service,

• if using the Service on behalf of a business or organization, you are authorized to bind that business or organization.

You may not use the Service if doing so would violate applicable law.

3. Registration and Accounts

3.1 Account Creation

To access certain features of the Service, you may be required to create an account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to promptly update such information as necessary.

You may be asked to provide information such as your name, email address, phone number, company name, business type, payment information, or other details needed to establish and maintain your account.

3.2 Account Responsibility

You are solely responsible for:

• maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials,

• restricting access to your devices and account,

• all activities that occur under your account,

• ensuring that account information remains accurate and current.

You may not share credentials in a way that violates your subscription plan or compromises account security. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts containing false, misleading, incomplete, or unauthorized information.

3.3 Account Owners and Authorized Users

If you create or maintain an account for a business, the business will be treated as the account owner for operational purposes, and the designated primary administrator or billing contact may be treated as the account owner or default administrator (“Account Owner”).

The Account Owner or its administrators may invite employees, contractors, technicians, office staff, or other authorized users (“Authorized Users”) to access the Service. The Account Owner is responsible for:

• assigning and managing permissions,

• ensuring Authorized Users comply with these Terms of Service,

• all acts and omissions of Authorized Users,

• removing access when an individual is no longer authorized.

We may rely on instructions, actions, permissions, and communications submitted through an account as though they were authorized by the Account Owner.

3.4 Account Ownership Disputes

In the event of any dispute regarding account ownership, access, or administrative control, we reserve the right to request documentation reasonably necessary to determine the appropriate owner or administrator, including identification, business records, proof of authority, and payment information. We may suspend access pending resolution of such a dispute.

4. Subscription Terms, Billing, Renewals, and Trials

Certain features of the Service require payment of subscription fees. Pricing, plans, included features, usage limits, and available functionality may vary by platform, promotion, location, or subscription tier.

If you start a free trial, you acknowledge and agree that:

• the free trial may automatically convert into a paid subscription unless canceled before the trial ends,

• recurring subscription fees may apply unless canceled,

• you are responsible for managing cancellation through the applicable billing channel.

If you subscribe through the Apple App Store or Google Play, billing, renewals, cancellations, and refunds are governed by the applicable app marketplace’s terms and policies in addition to these Terms of Service. Refunds, if any, will be handled in accordance with the applicable platform’s refund policy unless otherwise required by law.

Subscriptions may renew automatically unless canceled before the renewal date. Fees are generally billed in advance and are non-refundable except where required by law or expressly stated otherwise.

We reserve the right to change pricing, packaging, plans, included features, trial terms, or usage restrictions at any time. Where required by applicable law, we will provide reasonable notice before a material pricing change takes effect.

You are responsible for all taxes, duties, levies, and governmental assessments associated with your use of the Service, excluding taxes based on our net income.

5. License to Use the Service

As between you and Swim Buddy, you are solely responsible for determining whether you have provided all legally required notices and obtained all necessary consents and permissions to collect, use, disclose, sign, send, store, or otherwise process such information through the Service.

If we process information on your behalf in connection with the Service, we do so as a technology provider in support of your use of the platform. You remain responsible for your own business operations, agreements, privacy obligations, customer relationships, legal compliance, and recordkeeping practices.

8. Work Authorizations, Estimates, Invoices, and Electronic Signatures

If a signed document is revised, amended, or materially changed, you are responsible for obtaining any new signatures or approvals required to reflect and validate those changes. Amendments to previously signed documents should be documented through a newly executed version signed by all required parties.

We reserve the right, but not the obligation, to investigate suspected violations, remove User Content, suspend access, reclaim usernames, and disclose information where reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect users, respond to support issues, enforce these Terms of Service, or protect rights, safety, and property.

10. Data Storage, Retention, and Usage Limits

You acknowledge that Swim Buddy may establish general practices and limits concerning use of the Service, including storage limits, retention periods, data usage thresholds, feature limitations, or restrictions based on subscription tier.

You are solely responsible for maintaining your own backups and records. Swim Buddy has no responsibility or liability for deletion, corruption, loss, failure to store, or restricted access to User Content, whether due to account changes, downgrades, subscription limitations, suspension, termination, technical issues, or otherwise.

Downgrading or changing your subscription may result in loss of access to certain features, historical data, stored content, capacity, or functionality, and Swim Buddy shall not be liable for such loss.

11. Third-Party Services and Integrations

The Service may contain links to, integrate with, or interoperate with third-party services, websites, payment processors, map services, analytics providers, app marketplaces, messaging tools, or software integrations (“Third-Party Services”).

Swim Buddy does not control, endorse, or assume responsibility for any Third-Party Services, including their availability, legality, functionality, billing, content, data handling, performance, or security.

If you enable an integration, connect a third-party account, or use a third-party add-on, you authorize Swim Buddy to exchange relevant data with the applicable provider as necessary for the integration or functionality to operate.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and Swim Buddy agree that any dispute, claim, controversy, or cause of action arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service, the Website, the App, the Service, or the relationship between you and Swim Buddy (each, a “Dispute”) will be resolved as set forth in this Section.

26.1 Informal Resolution First

Before initiating arbitration or any other formal proceeding, you and Swim Buddy agree to first attempt to resolve any Dispute informally and in good faith.

If you have a Dispute with Swim Buddy, you must send written notice to:

Ironside Holdings LLC
Email: info@swimbuddyapp.com

Your notice must include:

• your full name and contact information,

• the email address associated with your account,

• a description of the nature of the Dispute,

• the relief you are seeking.

The parties agree to attempt to resolve the Dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration or court proceedings, unless injunctive relief is reasonably necessary to prevent immediate and irreparable harm.

26.2 Binding Arbitration

Except as otherwise provided in this Section, any Dispute not resolved informally shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration on an individual basis.

The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its applicable consumer or commercial arbitration rules, as applicable, in effect at the time the claim is filed.

Arbitration may be conducted in Suffolk County, New York, by videoconference, by telephone, or, where permitted, based solely on written submissions.

The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, and scope of this arbitration agreement, except that a court of competent jurisdiction shall decide issues relating to the enforceability of the class action waiver below.

26.3 Class Action Waiver

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND SWIM BUDDY AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, MASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

UNLESS BOTH YOU AND SWIM BUDDY EXPRESSLY AGREE IN WRITING, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR MASS PROCEEDING.

26.4 Exceptions

Nothing in this Section prevents either party from:

• bringing an individual action in small claims court, if the claim qualifies,

• seeking temporary, preliminary, or injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent immediate irreparable harm,

• seeking relief for misuse, infringement, or misappropriation of intellectual property or confidential information.

26.5 Opt-Out Right

You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to info@swimbuddyapp.com within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms of Service.

Your opt-out notice must include:

• your full name,

• your account email address,

• a clear statement that you wish to opt out of the arbitration provision.

If you opt out of this arbitration provision, all other parts of these Terms of Service will continue to apply.

27. Suspension and Termination

You may cancel your account at any time through your account settings or, where applicable, through the relevant app marketplace. Cancellation will generally take effect at the end of the then-current billing period unless otherwise specified.

Swim Buddy may, without prior notice and without liability to you, immediately suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the Website, App, or Service, or remove or restrict access to User Content, if we determine in our sole discretion that:

• you have breached these Terms of Service,

• fees remain unpaid,

• law enforcement or governmental authorities request such action,

• technical, legal, or operational issues arise,

• fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activity is suspected,

• we discontinue or materially modify the Service.

Upon termination:

• your right to use the Service immediately ceases,

• we may delete or restrict access to User Content after a reasonable retention period,

• certain provisions of these Terms will survive by their nature, including provisions relating to ownership, licenses, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, payment obligations, arbitration, governing law, and dispute-related provisions.

You acknowledge that your data may be deleted after approximately thirty (30) days or another reasonable retention period following termination, subject to backup, compliance, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, tax, legal, and operational needs.

28. Governing Law

These Terms of Service and any Dispute shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles, except to the extent federal law governs the enforceability of the arbitration provision.

29. Severability

If any provision of these Terms of Service is held to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. If any portion of the arbitration or class action waiver provisions is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

30. Waiver

No waiver of any provision of these Terms of Service shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such provision or any other provision, and our failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

31. Assignment

You may not assign, delegate, or transfer these Terms of Service or any rights or obligations under them without our prior written consent. We may assign or transfer these Terms of Service, in whole or in part, without restriction in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, change of control, or by operation of law.

32. Entire Agreement

These Terms of Service, together with the Privacy Policy and any additional terms incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and Swim Buddy regarding the Website, App, and Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, communications, and proposals, whether written or oral, relating to the same subject matter.
