Terms And Conditions

SimplyRecruited Terms of Use

 

Last Updated: October 1, 2025

IMPORTANT NOTICE: THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AS DETAILED IN THE ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER SECTION BELOW. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY.

SimplyRecruited’s mobile app and its website, simplyrecruited.net, are an online recruiting and matching platform specifically designed for college tennis coaches and players. The Platform, owned and operated by SimplyRecruited LLC (“SimplyRecruited,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), enables Players (“Player”) to create profiles, view Coach profiles surfaced by the Platform, submit recruiting information, upload academic and athletic data, set onboarding preferences, communicate directly, schedule calls, and manage recruiting-related transactions with prospective Coaches (“Coach,” “Provider”). There is no user-initiated search functionality for Coaches or Players. Discovery occurs through Platform-suggested profiles and swiping. Coaches are able to create profiles, evaluate Player information, manage recruiting preferences, and connect directly with Players. Each of the Players and/or Coaches may hereafter be referred to as a “you,” “your,” “User,” or collectively as “Users” who transact and interact using the SimplyRecruited platform.

The following Terms of Use outline your obligations when using the SimplyRecruited website(s), mobile application(s), and related services (collectively, the “SimplyRecruited Platform,” “The Platform,” or “Platform”) and incorporate important disclaimers regarding NCAA, NAIA, and NJCAA compliance, which you are solely responsible for reviewing and following when using the Platform.

ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS

This Terms of Use Agreement ("Terms"), including the binding arbitration and class action waiver below, governs your access to and use of the SimplyRecruited mobile application, website (simplyrecruited.net), and related recruiting services (collectively, the “Platform”), as well as your overall relationship with SimplyRecruited LLC.

All references to “you” or “your” refer to any person or entity accessing or using the Platform, including your heirs, assigns, and successors. If you are using the Platform on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that entity. In such cases, “you” includes the entity and its directors, officers, employees, and agents.

If you use the SimplyRecruited Platform to create a profile, upload athletic and academic information, view Platform-suggested Coach profiles, schedule calls, or otherwise participate in recruiting-related activities, you are a “Player” User and are the recipient of recruiting-related services made available by Coaches. For clarity, Players do not have a search function and cannot run searches for Coaches.

If you use the Platform to create a profile, review Player information, manage recruiting preferences, evaluate potential recruits, or otherwise connect with Players, you are a “Coach” User. Coaches receive Platform-suggested Player profiles based on preferences they set during onboarding and do not have a user-initiated search function. You represent and warrant that you have authority to bind yourself or your entity to these Terms. In such cases, “you” includes that entity and its directors, officers, employees, representatives, and agents..

To use the SimplyRecruited Platform, you must accept these Terms, including any updates we may make at our sole discretion. We strongly recommend reviewing this Agreement and any linked terms and policies. By accepting these Terms, you also acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for understanding and complying with all applicable NCAA, NAIA, NJCAA, or other governing body regulations that may apply to your recruiting activities when using the Platform. 

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE PLATFORM, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THEM. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, YOU MAY NOT USE THE PLATFORM. BY ACCEPTING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE LEGALLY BOUND BY THESE TERMS AS IF YOU HAD SIGNED A WRITTEN CONTRACT.

MODIFICATIONS OF TERMS OF USE

SimplyRecruited reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify these Terms of Use, agreements, privacy policies, and any other documents incorporated by reference herein, at any time and without prior notice. SimplyRecruited will notify you of changes by (a) posting an updated version on the SimplyRecruited Terms of Use page, (b) displaying a notice when you log into your account, and/or (c) sending an electronic notification to the email address associated with your account. Modifications will become effective thirty (30) days after the earliest of these notifications, unless a different effective date is required by law, NCAA/NAIA/NJCAA regulations, or other applicable compliance obligations, in which case such required date will control. Your continued use of the Platform after the expiration of the thirty (30) days (or such other required effective date) shall constitute your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree, you may not access or use the SimplyRecruited Platform.

SimplyRecruited continuously monitors its Platform policies, business practices, and compliance procedures to reflect changes in applicable law, technology, college recruiting regulations, NCAA/NAIA/NJCAA requirements, industry standards, and business practices. We reserve the right to implement updates, revisions, or clarifications to ensure continued compliance with federal, state, international, and athletic governing body rules as they apply to the recruiting services provided by the Platform.

ADDITIONAL TERMS AND POLICIES

Please review SimplyRecruited’s Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference, for detailed information on how we collect, process, use, store, and share your personal information when you use the Platform. Your use of the Platform is also subject to our obligations under applicable U.S. federal, international, and data privacy laws. For Players under the age of 18, we comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and require parental or guardian consent where applicable.

For more information on how we manage your personal information, including your right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal data, manage cookies, adjust tracking preferences, access or correct your information, or submit deletion requests, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

Players under 18 must have parental or guardian consent where required. By accessing or using the Platform, you represent and warrant that you are eligible.

By registering or using the Platform to create a profile, view Player data, or communicate with Players, Coaches represent and warrant that they, and any authorized representatives or staff acting on their behalf, are fully qualified to evaluate Players and comply with all applicable recruiting rules, regulations, and institutional policies, including NCAA, NAIA, and NJCAA requirements.

Players are solely responsible for verifying any information provided by Coaches, including their recruiting authority, institutional affiliation, and compliance with relevant governing body rules. SimplyRecruited does not guarantee or warrant the accuracy, completeness, or legitimacy of any information submitted by Coaches or Players, and Users are strongly encouraged to verify details independently.

SimplyRecruited provides a platform to facilitate communication and connections between Coaches and Players but is not in the business of providing recruiting services, making guarantees about athletic scholarships, or representing the interests of any school, conference, or governing body. Coaches and Players understand and agree that SimplyRecruited provides tools to facilitate profile creation, searches, filtering, messaging, scheduling, and data sharing, but use of the Platform does not guarantee placement, recruitment, or offers of admission, scholarships, or other outcomes.

Coaches understand and agree that they are independent users of the Platform and are not employees, agents, joint venturers, or partners of SimplyRecruited. Coaches set their own recruiting preferences, availability, and communication schedules and are solely responsible for any decisions made based on information obtained through the Platform. SimplyRecruited does not control and has no right to control how Coaches evaluate Players or how Players decide whether to engage with Coaches.

SimplyRecruited makes no guarantee or warranty, express or implied, regarding the reliability, accuracy, timeliness, or completeness of any information, profiles, recruiting data, or communications exchanged through the Platform and assumes no responsibility for omissions, errors, delays, financial loss, personal injury, or other damages arising from the use of the Platform or services provided by Coaches or Players.

As permitted by applicable law, SimplyRecruited may conduct identity verification, eligibility checks, and/or background screening on Coaches using third-party vendors. By registering as a Coach, you expressly authorize SimplyRecruited to use your personal and/or institutional information, including your name, institutional affiliation, and other relevant details, to conduct such checks where required or permitted.

ACCOUNT REGISTRATION AND OTHER SUBMISSIONS

Users are required to register with the SimplyRecruited Platform by creating a password-protected SimplyRecruited account (“Account”). You must provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process and maintain your profile to ensure it remains accurate, current, and complete, including your athletic, academic, and recruiting-related data where applicable, and you agree to promptly update any changes. You are solely responsible for safeguarding your SimplyRecruited Account password and for all activity that occurs under your Account, and you agree to notify SimplyRecruited immediately of any unauthorized access, suspicious activity, or security breach. SimplyRecruited is not responsible or liable for any unauthorized access, losses, or damages arising from your failure to secure your Account; however, you may be liable for any losses suffered by SimplyRecruited or other Users resulting from your failure to maintain proper account security. Your Account is personal, non-transferable, and may not be shared with other individuals or entities, and SimplyRecruited reserves the right to suspend, deactivate, or terminate accounts if inaccurate information is provided or if unauthorized activity is detected.

NO ACCOUNT TAKEOVERS FOR PLAYERS:

Players are strictly prohibited from transferring, sharing, or selling their SimplyRecruited accounts to any other person. Each Player account is personal to the individual who created it and must not be used by any other individual, including teammates, parents, or representatives. Account takeovers for Players are not permitted under any circumstances, and any attempt to transfer or assume a Player account will result in immediate suspension or termination of access to the Platform.

USING THE PLATFORM: PLAYER AND COACH MATCHING SERVICES
The Platform provides a matching service designed to connect college tennis coaches with tennis players who are seeking recruiting opportunities, whether they are already playing college tennis and looking to transfer or are prospective student-athletes exploring schools where they may compete. There are two types of Users on the Platform: Coaches and Players. By creating an account and completing your profile, you acknowledge and agree to provide accurate information to facilitate the matching process and improve your experience on the Platform.

For Coaches:
Upon registering and verifying their account, Coaches are prompted to provide information about their school, tennis program, and recruiting preferences, including but not limited to:

  • Division level (NCAA Division I, II, III, NAIA, or NJCAA)
  • Men’s, Women’s, or combined programs
  • Athletic conference affiliation (e.g., Big 10)
  • Student population size
  • Recruiting class year(s)
  • University name and website URL
  • Athletic website URL
  • Admission requirements, including SAT, ACT, TOEFL, and other applicable criteria
  • Uploading photos of the campus, facilities, and dormitories
  • Uploading a personal profile photo
  • Entering additional information in an “About Me” section to highlight recruiting priorities or program details

Once this information is completed, Coaches may set recruiting preferences to refine their recruiting process, including team type (Men’s, Women’s, Both), UTR and WTN ranking thresholds, recruiting class year, budget requirements, transfer status, handedness, country, and other relevant factors. The Platform then surfaces suggested Player profiles that align with those preferences. Coaches cannot run searches for Players. Coaches can then view prospective Players, indicate interest (“like”), and initiate communication once a match is established.

For Players:
Upon registering and verifying their account, Players are prompted to provide information about their academic, athletic, and recruiting preferences, including but not limited to:

  • Date of birth
  • Men’s or Women’s team preference
  • Country of origin
  • Desired academic major
  • Recruiting class year
  • Budget considerations
  • Left- or right-handed play
  • Transfer status
  • Standardized test scores (SAT, ACT, TOEFL, GPA)
  • UTR and WTN rankings (automatic sync or manual entry)
  • National or international tennis rankings
  • Uploading a recruiting video and other photos or videos
  • Uploading a profile picture
  • Entering additional information in an “About Me” section to highlight athletic achievements or recruiting goals

Once the profile is complete, Players receive suggested Coach profiles generated by the Platform based on the information in their profiles and preferences. Players cannot run searches for Coaches. Players can view Coach profiles, indicate interest (“like”), and, when mutual interest exists, request to connect via the in-app messaging feature. Messaging is only available after both parties accept the connection request.

Matches and Messaging:
The Platform’s matching system allows Users to:

  • View who has “liked” their profile
  • See established “matches” when both sides express interest
  • Request messaging access, which is only granted when both parties consent
  • Use the in-app messaging system to communicate directly with matches

By using the Platform, Coaches and Players acknowledge that SimplyRecruited does not guarantee matches, communication responses, or athletic recruitment outcomes and that the quality of matches depends on the information each User provides.

All Promotions, bonus periods, and free trial benefits are non-cash, non-refundable, and non-transferable and cannot be exchanged for monetary compensation, credits, or alternative rewards.

Abuse of Promotions:
SimplyRecruited reserves the right to withhold, cancel, or revoke any Promotion if it determines, in its sole discretion, that you have:

  • Misused or manipulated the promotional program;
  • Attempted to redeem multiple offers through fraudulent means; or
  • Violated these Terms of Use or any applicable laws.

CHARGEBACKS, DISPUTES & ACCOUNT SUSPENSION

By purchasing a subscription or any other paid services through the SimplyRecruited Platform, you agree to resolve any billing concerns directly with SimplyRecruited before initiating a dispute with your payment provider. Initiating a chargeback without first contacting SimplyRecruited may result in the immediate suspension of your account, withholding of promotional benefits, and termination of your subscription.

Disputing a Charge:
If you believe you were incorrectly billed, you must notify SimplyRecruited in writing within thirty (30) days of the transaction date by emailing payments@simplyrecruited.net and providing:

  • Your full name and registered email address;
  • Your subscription plan and billing date;
  • A description of the issue and any supporting documentation.

SimplyRecruited will investigate the dispute in good faith and respond based on the findings and applicable payment processor policies.

Impact of Disputes:
While a dispute is pending, SimplyRecruited reserves the right to:

  • Suspend access to paid features;
  • Withhold application of referral credits, promotional upgrades, or bonuses;
  • Delay or revoke eligibility for future offers or free trials.
  •  

Chargeback Abuse: If a chargeback is found to be invalid or fraudulent, SimplyRecruited may, in its sole discretion:

 

  • Permanently suspend or terminate your account;
  • Revoke any active subscription benefits;
  • Forfeit pending promotional rewards; and
  • Recover the disputed amount, plus any fees or penalties incurred by SimplyRecruited.

Account Reinstatement:
Reinstatement of an account following a dispute or chargeback is not guaranteed and will be considered on a case-by-case basis. SimplyRecruited reserves the right to refuse reinstatement where chargeback activity or billing abuse is excessive or repeated.

CANCELLATION & SUBSCRIPTION CHANGES

Players may cancel their paid subscription at any time through their account settings or by contacting SimplyRecruited at support@simplyrecruited.net. Cancellations will take effect at the end of the current billing cycle, and you will retain access to paid features until that date.

Because subscription fees are billed in advance, SimplyRecruited does not issue refunds or credits for partial billing periods, unused services, or early cancellations, unless required by applicable law or expressly stated in a promotional offer.

Changing Subscription Plans:

  • Upgrades to a higher-tier plan (e.g., moving from Basic to Premium or Premium Plus) take effect immediately, and the difference in subscription fees will be billed on a prorated basis.
  • Downgrades to a lower-tier plan take effect at the start of your next billing cycle, and you will retain access to your current plan until that date.

Promotional and Referral Upgrades:
Any free months, bonus access periods, or subscription upgrades earned through referral rewards or promotional offers are applied automatically once eligibility is verified. These benefits have no cash value, are non-transferable, and do not extend beyond the promotional period unless stated otherwise in writing.

TAXES & FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITIES

All subscription fees, add-ons, and other charges displayed on the SimplyRecruited Platform are exclusive of any applicable taxes, unless expressly stated otherwise. Where required by law, SimplyRecruited will collect and remit applicable sales tax, value-added tax (VAT), goods and services tax (GST), or similar transaction-based taxes at the time of payment. Any such taxes will be clearly displayed at checkout and included in your final invoice.

Players are solely responsible for determining and fulfilling any personal tax obligations that may arise from their use of the Platform, including any benefits received from referral rewards, promotional offers, or other incentives. SimplyRecruited does not provide legal or tax advice and disclaims all liability for Players’ personal tax reporting, obligations, or compliance.

SimplyRecruited reserves the right to adjust pricing to reflect changes in applicable tax laws, rates, or collection requirements and will notify Players in advance if such adjustments affect subscription fees.

TRACKING COMMUNICATIONS

In order to ensure proper functioning of the Platform, protect subscription billing, and to enforce these Terms, SimplyRecruited may track the occurrence of communications between Players and other Platform Users that occur off of the Platform via email, phone call, SMS text message, third-party websites, or any other means, whether initiated by a Player or another User. In order to track the occurrence of such communications, SimplyRecruited may obscure Platform User contact information in a Platform User profile, replace contact information with a unique identifier that will forward communications to the intended recipient, or take any other step reasonably calculated to track the occurrence of such communications. Except as explicitly stated herein, we will not record or review the content of any communications that do not come into contact with the SimplyRecruited Platform unless we first obtain your permission.

If you send text messages with another User using the telephone number for that Platform User available on the Platform, we may use a third-party service to track these text messages. We track these text messages for fraud prevention, subscription protection, to enforce these Terms, and for quality and training purposes. As part of this process, SimplyRecruited and its third-party provider will receive in real-time and store data about your text message, including the date and time of the text message, your phone number, and the recipient’s phone number, and the content of the text message as necessary to support these functions.

ARBITRATION

Dispute Resolution. Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully.  It is part of your contract with Company and affects your rights.  It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

Applicability of Arbitration Agreement.  All claims and disputes (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) in connection with the Terms or the use of the Platform that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of this Arbitration Agreement.  Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English.  This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and Company, and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns.

Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution.  Before either party may seek arbitration, the party must first send to the other party a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief.  A Notice to Company should be emailed to support@simplyrecruited.net.   After the Notice is received, you and Company may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally.  If you and Company do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding.  The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award, if any, to which either party is entitled.

Arbitration Rules.  Arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), an established alternative dispute resolution provider (“ADR Provider”) that offers arbitration as set forth in this section.  If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR Provider.  The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with the Terms. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator.  Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief.  For claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules.  Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party shall bear its own costs (including attorney’s fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider.

Additional Rules for Non-Appearance Based Arbitration.  If non-appearance-based arbitration is elected, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration.  The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

Time Limits.  If you or Company pursue arbitration, the arbitration action must be initiated and/or demanded within the statute of limitations (i.e., the legal deadline for filing a claim) and within any deadline imposed under the AAA Rules for the pertinent claim.

Authority of Arbitrator.  If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Company, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the AAA Rules, and the Terms.  The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded.  The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have.  The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and Company.

Waiver of Jury Trial.  THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement.  Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in a court and are subject to very limited review by a court.  In the event any litigation should arise between you and Company in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND SIMPLYRECRUITED NOW WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.

Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions.  ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER USER.  

Confidentiality.  All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential.  The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law.  This paragraph shall not prevent a party from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce this Agreement, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.

Severability.  If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

Right to Waive.  Any or all of the rights and limitations set forth in this Arbitration Agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted.  Such waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement.

Survival of Agreement.  This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Company.  

Emergency Equitable Relief.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before a state or federal court in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration.  A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Arbitration Agreement.

Courts.  In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits the parties to litigate in court, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Wilmington, Delaware for such purpose.

GOVERNING LAW

The Terms and the relationship between you and SimplyRecruited shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You agree that any claim or dispute you may have against SimplyRecruited that is not subject to must be resolved by a court located in Arapahoe County, Colorado, or a United States District Court, Northern District of Colorado, located in Aurora, Colorado, except as otherwise agreed by the parties. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Arapahoe County, Colorado or the United States District Court, Northern District of Colorado located in Aurora, Colorado, for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes that are not subject to arbitration.

  3. Coach Onboarding and Profile Setup: 
    1. Coaches interested in signing up must first create a Platform account by providing their full name and official school or university email address, which will be verified through a one-time passcode (OTP) process. Once verification is complete, Coaches are required to provide school and program details, including athletic division (Division I, II, III, NAIA, or NJCAA), the athletic programs offered (Men, Women, or Both), the conference in which the program competes, and the student population of the university. Coaches must also specify a recruiting class year, limited to one specific recruiting term identified as either fall or spring with the applicable year. Coaches may update this information in their profile at any time to reflect changes and disclose applicable academic requirements, including SAT, ACT, and TOEFL expectations. Coaches must provide the university name, the university website URL, the athletic website URL, the state in which the university is located, and may upload photographs of the campus, athletic facilities, and dormitories. Coaches are required to upload a profile picture and may include an “About Me” description to personalize their profile and describe what they are seeking in recruits. 
    2. SimplyRecruited may also request additional documentation or verification at its discretion. You agree to maintain accurate, complete, and truthful information throughout your participation on the Platform.
    3. Coaches may manage and update program information and preference settings at their discretion, including filters such as Player graduation year, country, budget, UTR/WTN (singles and doubles), handedness, and transfer status, provided such settings are used solely for refining recommendations.
    4. SimplyRecruited may offer scheduling, messaging, or notification tools, including push notifications and in-app alerts. These optional features may be modified, expanded, or discontinued at any time.
    5. All links or URLs uploaded by Coaches are user-generated content, and Players who access such links do so at their own risk. SimplyRecruited disclaims any responsibility or liability for the accuracy or authenticity of such links.
    6. As a condition of participation on the Platform, Coaches may be subject to identity verification, eligibility screening, or compliance reviews as determined by SimplyRecruited in its sole discretion.

This requirement applies to all aspects of Coach participation, including eligibility, onboarding, profile setup, messaging, recordkeeping, player data handling, cancellations, payments, and recruiting activities. SimplyRecruited does not provide compliance advice and disclaims responsibility for monitoring or ensuring a Coach’s compliance with governing-body or institutional rules.
