Terms of Service
These terms are the agreement between you and Duffers Anonymous, operated by Carquinez Holdings LLC, a California limited liability company. By creating an account or using the app, you agree to them. If you don't, please don't use the app.
1. Who can use it
You must be at least 13 years old, and old enough to enter a contract where you live. You're responsible for what happens under your account, so keep your sign-in details to yourself.
2. What the app is
Duffers Anonymous helps groups organize golf trips: planning, scoring, side games, expense splitting, messaging and photo sharing. It is a record-keeping and communication tool for a group of people who already know each other.
3. Your content
Everything you post — scores, photos, messages, trip details — stays yours. You give us permission to store it, and to show it to the people you've shared it with, purely so the app can work. We don't use your content for anything else.
You're responsible for what you post, and you confirm you have the right to post it.
4. Objectionable content and behavior — zero tolerance
There is no tolerance for objectionable content or abusive behavior on this app. By using Duffers Anonymous you agree not to post, send or share content that is:
- harassing, bullying, threatening, or intended to intimidate;
- hateful, or which attacks or demeans people on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, disability, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation or age;
- sexually explicit, or sexual content involving minors of any kind;
- violent, or which glorifies or incites violence or self-harm;
- illegal, fraudulent, or which infringes someone else's rights;
- spam, or impersonation of another person.
You also agree not to abuse other users, and not to attempt to circumvent someone's block of you.
How this is enforced. Every message and photo in the app can be reported (press and hold it) and every person can be blocked. We review reports and act within 24 hours — removing content, and removing the accounts of people who post it. Blocking someone takes effect immediately and doesn't wait on us. We may remove content or terminate an account for a breach of this section without notice.
5. Golf, scores, and money between friends
The app records what you and your group tell it. Scores, handicaps, standings and settlement figures are only as accurate as what's entered, and we don't verify any of it. If a number matters to your group, check it. We're not responsible for disputes about scores or money between you and the people you play with.
6. AI features
Trip plans, recaps, course notes and trash talk are generated by an AI model (Claude, from Anthropic) and are labelled as such in the app. AI output can be wrong, and it's meant to be entertaining rather than authoritative — don't rely on it for anything that matters. Course information, distances and weather come from third-party data that can also be wrong or out of date.
7. Things you agree not to do
- Break the law with it, or use it to help anyone else do so.
- Try to access other people's accounts, trips or messages.
- Probe, scrape, or interfere with the service or its infrastructure.
- Reverse-engineer the app, except where the law says you may.
- Resell or commercially redistribute the service.
8. Ending it
You can delete your account at any time in the app, under Profile → Delete Account. What that removes and what it doesn't is described in the Privacy Policy.
We may suspend or terminate an account that breaches these terms, particularly section 4.
9. No warranty
The app is provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent the law allows. We don't promise it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that your data will never be lost — keep your own record of anything you can't afford to lose.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages, or for lost data, lost profits, or money disputed between you and another user. Where liability can't be excluded, it is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the previous twelve months or ten US dollars.
Some places don't allow these exclusions, in which case they don't apply to you.
11. Changes
We may update these terms. We'll change the date at the top, and tell you in the app if the change is significant. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept it.
12. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.
