NATIONAL SCOUTING COMBINE TERMS OF SERVICE

Effective Date: September 15, 2026
Last Updated: September 15, 2026

1. Agreement to These Terms

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Beyond Sports, LLC, doing business as National Scouting Combine® (“NSC,” “National Scouting Combine,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

These Terms govern your access to and use of:

  • nationalscoutingcombine.com and other NSC-operated websites;
  • the NSC Network;
  • NSC athlete profiles;
  • National Scouting Combine and NextGen events;
  • standardized athletic performance testing;
  • Athletic Intelligence Reports and related analysis;
  • NSCAP grading and analytical products;
  • research and validation products;
  • registration and application systems;
  • subscriptions and digital services;
  • personnel, coach and scout tools; and
  • other NSC services that link to these Terms.

By creating an account, submitting an application, registering for an event, purchasing a service, expressly accepting these Terms, or otherwise using a service that requires acceptance of these Terms, you agree to be bound by them.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not create an account, register for an NSC service, or use restricted NSC services.

Merely visiting publicly available portions of the website does not by itself create an athlete, personnel or subscription relationship with NSC.


2. Supplemental Terms

Certain NSC services may be governed by additional agreements or disclosures, including:

  • event rules;
  • participant waivers;
  • assumption-of-risk agreements;
  • medical authorizations;
  • publicity and media releases;
  • subscription terms;
  • payment terms;
  • coach or scout credentials;
  • personnel verification requirements;
  • sponsorship agreements;
  • Foundation program terms; or
  • other service-specific conditions.

Those supplemental terms are incorporated into your agreement with NSC for the applicable service.

If a supplemental term directly conflicts with these Terms, the supplemental term controls with respect to that specific service or transaction.


3. National Scouting Combine Foundation, Inc.

National Scouting Combine Foundation, Inc. is a separate nonprofit organization from Beyond Sports, LLC.

Foundation donations, charitable programs, scholarships, athlete-assistance programs, community programs and Foundation-sponsored initiatives may be subject to separate terms or disclosures.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, Beyond Sports, LLC is not responsible for the independent obligations of National Scouting Combine Foundation, Inc., and the Foundation is not responsible for the independent commercial obligations of Beyond Sports, LLC.

Jointly operated programs may involve both organizations as disclosed for the particular program.


4. Eligibility and Minors

You must have legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

A person under age 18 may use applicable NSC services only with the involvement, authorization or consent of a parent or legal guardian where required.

Children under age 13 may not independently create an NSC account or directly enroll in an online NSC service unless NSC has implemented an appropriate parent- or guardian-managed process and obtained any legally required verifiable parental consent.

Where an athlete is a minor, NSC may require a parent or legal guardian to:

  • create or authorize the account;
  • approve registration;
  • execute event documents;
  • provide medical authorization;
  • approve recruiting-related functionality;
  • authorize direct athlete communication;
  • approve publicity or media rights; or
  • otherwise participate in the service.

A parent or legal guardian accepting these Terms on behalf of a minor represents that the parent or guardian has legal authority to do so.


5. Accounts and Credentials

Certain NSC services require an account.

You agree to provide truthful, accurate, current and complete information and to update that information when reasonably necessary.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your username, password and other credentials.

You may not:

  • share an individual account with an unauthorized person;
  • permit another person to impersonate you;
  • obtain access through another person’s credentials;
  • create accounts under false identities;
  • misrepresent your school, team, employer or organization; or
  • circumvent account restrictions or verification requirements.

You are responsible for activity conducted through your account unless you promptly notify NSC that the account has been compromised.

NSC may require additional identity, employment, parental or organizational verification at any time.


6. Athlete Profiles

NSC may create or maintain an athlete profile based upon event participation, historical NSC records, information provided during registration or information submitted through an authorized service.

An eligible athlete may be permitted to claim or adopt an existing profile after completing appropriate verification.

Athletes may be permitted to maintain selected profile information, including:

  • current team;
  • playing status;
  • position;
  • contact information;
  • statistics;
  • academic information;
  • media coverage;
  • awards;
  • accolades;
  • honors; and
  • other designated recruiting information.

The ability to edit a profile does not authorize an athlete to modify official NSC testing results, verified measurements, NSCAP analytical outputs or other NSC-controlled information.

NSC may correct errors, consolidate duplicate profiles, normalize positions, update status information or otherwise maintain record integrity.


7. Verified Data and User-Submitted Information

NSC distinguishes between information that has been verified through NSC systems and information submitted by athletes or other users.

Official NSC-administered measurements and testing results may be designated as verified.

Information entered by an athlete, parent, coach, personnel member or other third party is not automatically verified merely because it appears in an NSC profile.

You may not knowingly submit false, misleading, altered or fabricated:

  • test results;
  • statistics;
  • academic information;
  • roster information;
  • recruiting offers;
  • awards;
  • media coverage;
  • school information;
  • employment information; or
  • other profile content.

NSC may request supporting documentation and may remove, correct, flag or refuse to publish information it reasonably believes is inaccurate, misleading or unverifiable.


8. NSC Network

The NSC Network is an athletic discovery and evaluation platform designed to help qualified personnel access relevant athlete information.

Access to athlete information may depend upon:

  • account type;
  • verified organizational affiliation;
  • athlete age;
  • parental authorization;
  • applicable law;
  • subscription status;
  • personnel role; and
  • NSC access rules.

Creating an NSC athlete profile does not make all athlete information publicly accessible.

NSC may maintain different visibility levels for public information, verified-personnel information, athlete-only information, parent or guardian information and internal administrative information.


9. College and Professional Personnel Verification

Access to NSC athlete-discovery functionality may be limited to individuals with current, verified employment or affiliation with an appropriate college, university, professional organization, league, team or other recognized athletic organization.

NSC may require an official organizational email address or other evidence of current affiliation.

A personnel user agrees to promptly update NSC if the user’s employment, position or organizational affiliation changes.

NSC may suspend athlete-search or profile-access privileges when employment or organizational affiliation can no longer be verified.

A former coach, scout or employee does not acquire a continuing right to NSC athlete information merely because that person previously held verified access.


10. Permitted Personnel Use of Athlete Information

Authorized personnel may use athlete information available through NSC for legitimate athletic purposes such as:

  • recruiting;
  • scouting;
  • roster evaluation;
  • athletic evaluation;
  • personnel research;
  • athlete comparison; and
  • internal team or program decision support.

Unless expressly authorized by NSC, personnel may not:

  • sell athlete information;
  • resell access;
  • distribute athlete databases;
  • make athlete information publicly available;
  • use athlete data for advertising;
  • use athlete data for unrelated commercial solicitation;
  • scrape or bulk-export athlete information;
  • create a competing database from NSC data; or
  • use NSC information for unlawful discriminatory purposes.

Information concerning minors must be handled with particular care and only for authorized purposes.


11. Contact With Athletes

NSC may restrict the manner in which users contact athletes, particularly high-school and youth athletes.

Where NSC establishes a coach, parent or guardian contact hierarchy, users agree to respect those controls.

Personnel may not use NSC information to circumvent parental permissions, school policies, recruiting regulations or NSC contact restrictions.

Users are responsible for complying with all applicable recruiting, employment, amateur-athletics and communications rules governing their own conduct.


12. Athletic Testing

NSC conducts standardized athletic performance testing intended to provide objective performance information.

Testing may include, as applicable:

  • sprint testing;
  • acceleration testing;
  • agility testing;
  • 3-cone testing;
  • vertical jump;
  • broad jump;
  • strength testing;
  • measurements;
  • force-plate testing; and
  • other approved athletic assessments.

NSC may use electronic timing systems, measurement devices and other testing technology.

NSC may reject, invalidate, retest or correct a result where it reasonably determines that:

  • equipment malfunctioned;
  • timing or measurement was improper;
  • the athlete failed to follow protocol;
  • the result was recorded incorrectly;
  • the data appears physically implausible;
  • interference affected the test; or
  • data-integrity concerns exist.

Athletic testing reflects performance under the conditions existing at the time of the test. It does not guarantee future performance.


13. Athletic Intelligence, HPE and NSCAP

NSC uses proprietary systems and methodologies to transform athletic testing and related data into analytical information.

These systems may include:

  • NSCAP Grades;
  • Athletic Intelligence Reports;
  • the Human Performance Engine;
  • Athletic Efficiency or related indices;
  • performance percentiles;
  • positional benchmarks;
  • Athletic DNA classifications;
  • position-fit analysis;
  • comparable-athlete analysis;
  • readiness indicators;
  • development indicators;
  • research models; and
  • related analytical products.

Analytical outputs are decision-support tools.

They are not definitive scouting judgments.

They do not establish that an athlete is or is not qualified for a particular college, scholarship, roster, league, professional team or level of competition.


14. Methodology May Evolve

NSC’s analytical systems are research-driven and may evolve as additional data becomes available and methodologies are validated or improved.

NSC may modify:

  • benchmarks;
  • ranges;
  • classifications;
  • formulas;
  • comparisons;
  • model assumptions;
  • position groups;
  • analytical terminology; and
  • related methodology.

A report represents the methodology and data available when that report was generated unless expressly stated otherwise.

A previously issued grade or analytical result may differ from a result subsequently calculated under an updated methodology.

NSC may correct an analytical output if underlying data was inaccurate or improperly classified.


15. No Guarantee of Recruiting or Athletic Outcome

NSC does not guarantee:

  • college admission;
  • scholarship offers;
  • recruiting contact;
  • roster placement;
  • playing time;
  • draft selection;
  • camp invitations;
  • professional contracts;
  • employment;
  • agency representation;
  • NIL opportunities;
  • endorsements;
  • media coverage; or
  • any particular athletic outcome.

Athletic decisions are made independently by colleges, teams, coaches, scouts, leagues, agents and other third parties.

An NSCAP Grade, Athletic Intelligence Report, event invitation or other NSC designation should not be interpreted as a promise of advancement.


16. No Employment, Agency or Fiduciary Relationship

Unless NSC expressly enters into a separate written agreement stating otherwise, NSC is not acting as:

  • an athlete’s sports agent;
  • an employment agency;
  • an attorney;
  • a financial adviser;
  • a medical provider;
  • a fiduciary;
  • a college admissions representative; or
  • an agent of any college or professional team.

NSC provides athletic evaluation, information, exposure, technology and related services.

No fiduciary or agency relationship is created merely by use of an NSC service.


17. Recruiting, Eligibility and Compliance

Athletes, parents, coaches, schools and personnel remain responsible for complying with rules applicable to them, including rules of colleges, conferences, governing bodies, leagues, schools, athletic associations and professional organizations.

NSC does not guarantee that participation in a particular event, use of a service, communication with personnel or acceptance of a benefit complies with every NCAA, NAIA, NJCAA, high-school association, league, NIL or other eligibility rule.

Users should obtain appropriate guidance concerning rules applicable to their circumstances.


18. Research and Validation

NSC may use athletic information for research, validation, benchmarking, model development, historical analysis and improvement of its methodologies as described in the NSC Privacy Policy.

Such activities may include analysis of:

  • athletic performance;
  • positional benchmarks;
  • competitive level;
  • player development;
  • data reliability;
  • athletic outcomes;
  • model accuracy;
  • recruiting outcomes; and
  • related performance questions.

Where reasonably practicable, research may use aggregated, de-identified or pseudonymized data.

NSC’s handling of identifiable Personal Information is governed by its Privacy Policy and applicable law.


19. No Gambling or Wagering Advice

NSC services, grades, reports, research models and analytical products are not intended to constitute gambling, wagering or sportsbook advice.

No NSC prediction, comparison, research output or analytical result guarantees the outcome of any athletic contest.

Users may not commercially market an NSC product as a guaranteed betting system or imply that NSC guarantees wagering outcomes.


20. Event Applications and Invitations

Submitting an application or registration does not necessarily guarantee acceptance into an invitation-only NSC event.

NSC may consider factors including eligibility, playing history, position, event capacity, film, verified information and event needs.

NSC may accept, reject, waitlist or revoke an application or invitation where reasonably necessary.

An invitation may be revoked for reasons including:

  • material misrepresentation;
  • failure to complete registration;
  • failure to make required payment;
  • safety concerns;
  • misconduct;
  • eligibility issues;
  • violation of event rules; or
  • circumstances affecting event operations.

21. Event Conduct

Participants, guests and credentialed personnel are expected to conduct themselves professionally and safely.

NSC may remove an individual from an event or revoke credentials for conduct including:

  • violence or threats;
  • harassment;
  • abusive behavior;
  • intentional interference with testing;
  • falsification of information;
  • unauthorized field or restricted-area access;
  • unsafe conduct;
  • intoxication;
  • theft;
  • destruction of property;
  • inappropriate conduct toward minors;
  • violation of venue policies; or
  • material disruption of the event.

Removal for misconduct may occur without refund where permitted by law.


22. Physical Activity and Assumption of Risk

Athletic testing, football activities, training, running, jumping, strength testing, position drills, contact activity and competitive sports involve inherent risks.

Those risks may include falls, collisions, strains, sprains, fractures, head injuries, cardiac events, illness, disability, paralysis or death.

Participants are responsible for determining whether they are physically able to participate and should seek appropriate medical advice where necessary.

NSC does not provide medical advice merely by conducting athletic testing or producing an Athletic Intelligence Report.


23. Separate Event Waivers

Participation in an NSC athletic event may require execution of a separate:

  • assumption-of-risk agreement;
  • participant release;
  • medical authorization;
  • emergency authorization;
  • concussion acknowledgement;
  • parent or guardian consent; or
  • other event document.

Those documents govern the risks and releases associated with physical participation.

These Terms are not intended to replace a properly executed event-specific participant waiver.

Where an athlete is a minor, NSC may require appropriate parent or legal guardian signatures.


24. Event Photography, Video and Media Rights

NSC events may be photographed, recorded, livestreamed, broadcast or covered by media.

Rights concerning an identifiable participant’s name, image, likeness, voice, interview, photographs or video may be governed by a separate event publicity or media release.

NSC will rely on the applicable release, consent or other lawful basis for use.

For minors, parent or guardian authorization may be required.

Nothing in this section requires an athlete to transfer ownership of unrelated athlete-created media merely by creating an NSC account.


25. Event Fees and Payments

Unless otherwise stated at checkout, registration fees, application fees, deposits and other event charges are due when indicated.

The registrant is responsible for ensuring payment information is accurate and authorized.

NSC may use third-party payment processors.

NSC may cancel an unpaid or incomplete registration.

Travel, lodging, meals, transportation and other expenses are the participant’s responsibility unless expressly included in the applicable event package.


26. Refund Policy

IMPORTANT — EVENT FEES ARE GENERALLY NON-REFUNDABLE.

Except where required by law or expressly stated for a specific transaction, registration fees, deposits, application fees and event-related service fees are non-refundable after payment.

Refunds ordinarily will not be issued because of:

  • voluntary withdrawal;
  • a scheduling conflict;
  • inability to travel;
  • missed transportation;
  • failure to attend;
  • change in recruiting status;
  • change in athletic eligibility;
  • pre-event injury;
  • personal circumstances; or
  • dissatisfaction with an athletic result, grade or evaluation.

NSC may, in its discretion, issue a future-event credit in extraordinary circumstances such as a documented medical emergency, military obligation or other serious circumstance.

A discretionary credit does not create a right to future credits.

Credits:

  • have no cash value;
  • are non-transferable unless NSC authorizes transfer;
  • may apply only to designated events; and
  • may expire.

Nothing in this section limits a refund right that cannot lawfully be waived.


27. Event Cancellation, Rescheduling and Force Majeure

NSC may modify, postpone, reschedule, relocate, shorten or cancel an event when reasonably necessary.

Circumstances beyond NSC’s reasonable control may include:

  • severe weather;
  • hurricanes;
  • natural disasters;
  • acts of God;
  • fire;
  • public health emergencies;
  • governmental restrictions;
  • war;
  • terrorism;
  • civil disorder;
  • labor disruptions;
  • utility failure;
  • transportation interruption;
  • venue closure;
  • field conditions;
  • facility failure; or
  • other circumstances that materially impair safe or practical performance.

Where practicable, NSC may offer rescheduling, relocation, alternative programming or event credit.

If NSC permanently cancels an event for reasons within NSC’s reasonable control and does not provide a replacement event or substantially equivalent service, NSC may provide a refund of the applicable registration fee paid directly to NSC.

NSC is not responsible for independently purchased airfare, hotel charges, transportation, lost wages or other consequential travel expenses unless NSC expressly agreed in writing to pay them.


28. Subscriptions and Recurring Services

NSC may offer paid digital memberships, personnel access, athlete services or other subscriptions.

Specific pricing, billing frequency, renewal terms and cancellation terms will be disclosed at purchase.

If a service automatically renews, the renewal terms presented at enrollment are incorporated into these Terms.

Where required by law, NSC will provide legally required renewal notices and a method to cancel recurring services.

Cancellation ordinarily becomes effective at the end of the paid billing period unless otherwise stated.

Fees already charged are non-refundable except as required by law or the applicable subscription terms.


29. User Content

“User Content” means information or material you voluntarily submit to NSC, such as:

  • profile information;
  • photographs;
  • film links;
  • statistics;
  • biographies;
  • awards;
  • media links;
  • comments;
  • feedback;
  • documents; or
  • other user-provided material.

You retain whatever ownership rights you lawfully possess in your User Content.

You represent that you have the rights and permissions necessary to submit that content and permit NSC to use it as described in these Terms.


30. License to User Content

By submitting User Content, you grant NSC a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, format, display, transmit and otherwise process that content as reasonably necessary to:

  • operate the service;
  • maintain the athlete profile;
  • provide recruiting and scouting functionality;
  • provide authorized exposure;
  • generate reports or analysis;
  • administer events;
  • maintain records;
  • provide technical functionality; and
  • perform other uses disclosed when the content is submitted.

This service license continues for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the applicable service or maintain lawful records.

Use of an athlete’s likeness for advertising or broad promotional purposes may instead be governed by a separate media or publicity release.

NSC does not obtain ownership of the athlete’s copyright in independently created film or photographs merely because a link or copy is submitted.


31. Media Links, Awards and Recognition

An athlete who submits a media article, interview, award, accolade or recognition represents that the submission is genuine and relates to the athlete.

Submitting a link to third-party content does not transfer ownership of that third-party content to NSC or the athlete.

NSC may identify athlete-submitted media and accolades as unverified unless independently confirmed.

NSC may remove content that is false, misleading, unlawful, infringing or inconsistent with service rules.


32. Private Notes and Personnel Content

Where NSC permits personnel to maintain private notes, tracking lists or similar evaluation information, the personnel user is responsible for the lawfulness and accuracy of that user’s own entries.

Personnel users may not use NSC tools to create content that is unlawful, threatening, defamatory, harassing or unlawfully discriminatory.

NSC does not endorse or adopt a personnel user’s private scouting opinion merely because it is stored through an NSC tool.


33. Intellectual Property

The NSC websites, software, databases, reports, visual designs, graphics, text, trademarks and proprietary systems contain intellectual property owned by or licensed to Beyond Sports, LLC or other authorized parties.

NSC intellectual property includes, where applicable:

  • National Scouting Combine® branding;
  • NSCAP methodologies;
  • scoring ranges;
  • analytical methods;
  • the Human Performance Engine;
  • Athletic Intelligence Report structures;
  • report designs;
  • databases;
  • benchmark systems;
  • comparables methodology;
  • algorithms;
  • research frameworks;
  • software;
  • source code;
  • data structures; and
  • proprietary documentation.

Except as expressly authorized, no license to this intellectual property is granted.


34. Athlete License to Reports

An athlete receiving an NSC report may use the report for personal athletic, recruiting, development and informational purposes.

The athlete may ordinarily share an authentic report with:

  • coaches;
  • scouts;
  • recruiters;
  • agents;
  • trainers;
  • family members;
  • media; and
  • other appropriate recipients.

The athlete may not materially alter an official report, fabricate an NSC score, remove information so as to create a misleading impression, or represent a modified report as an original NSC document.


35. Personnel License to NSC Data

Verified personnel receive a limited, revocable, non-transferable right to access authorized NSC information for legitimate internal recruiting, scouting or athletic-evaluation purposes.

This right does not authorize:

  • commercial resale;
  • publication of NSC databases;
  • redistribution to unauthorized parties;
  • creation of a competing service;
  • model training;
  • scraping;
  • bulk harvesting; or
  • reverse engineering.

NSC may revoke this license when access terminates.


36. Prohibition on Scraping, Data Harvesting and Model Training

Unless NSC provides prior written authorization, you may not use any automated or systematic method to:

  • scrape athlete profiles;
  • crawl restricted pages;
  • harvest contact information;
  • download substantial portions of the NSC database;
  • reconstruct the NSC database;
  • discover proprietary model parameters;
  • reverse engineer scoring systems;
  • benchmark or clone NSC algorithms;
  • train, fine-tune, validate or develop an artificial-intelligence or machine-learning model using NSC proprietary data, reports or restricted content; or
  • create a competing athletic-scoring or recruiting product from NSC proprietary information.

Ordinary indexing by generally available search engines of content NSC intentionally makes public is not prohibited by this section.


37. Additional Prohibited Conduct

You may not:

  • use NSC services for unlawful purposes;
  • impersonate another person;
  • misrepresent employment or credentials;
  • hack or interfere with NSC systems;
  • bypass access controls;
  • introduce malware;
  • test system vulnerabilities without authorization;
  • obtain unauthorized athlete information;
  • contact minors contrary to NSC restrictions;
  • harass athletes or other users;
  • send unsolicited bulk solicitation;
  • exploit athlete information for unrelated commercial marketing;
  • publish restricted athlete contact data;
  • sell or transfer account access;
  • manipulate testing results;
  • submit fraudulent information;
  • interfere with another participant’s testing;
  • violate applicable privacy or publicity rights;
  • use NSC services to discriminate unlawfully; or
  • assist another person in doing any of the foregoing.

38. Third-Party Services and Links

NSC may link to or integrate with third-party services, including:

  • payment processors;
  • hotels;
  • venues;
  • video platforms;
  • social networks;
  • recruiting tools;
  • analytics providers;
  • media organizations;
  • registration providers;
  • sponsors; and
  • event partners.

Third-party services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

NSC does not control an independent third party merely because NSC provides a link or integration.

A reference to a college, team, league, company or organization does not imply endorsement or affiliation unless NSC expressly states otherwise.


39. Sponsors, Partners and Educational Resources

NSC may provide access to sponsors, partners, speakers, educational resources and third-party products or services.

NSC does not guarantee the quality, suitability or outcome of an independent partner’s product or service.

Any purchase or contractual relationship between a user and an independent provider is governed by that provider’s agreement unless NSC expressly states otherwise.

If promotional content constitutes a paid sponsorship or endorsement requiring disclosure, NSC will provide appropriate disclosure in accordance with applicable law.


40. Foundation Donations

Donations to National Scouting Combine Foundation, Inc. are separate from purchases from Beyond Sports, LLC.

NSC does not provide tax advice.

Donors are responsible for consulting their own tax adviser concerning the deductibility or tax treatment of any contribution.

Any donation acknowledgement or receipt will be provided by the applicable charitable organization or payment provider as appropriate.


41. Privacy

NSC’s collection and handling of Personal Information is described in the National Scouting Combine Privacy Policy.

The Privacy Policy should be read together with these Terms.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to waive a privacy right that cannot legally be waived.

The Privacy Policy is intended primarily as a notice regarding data practices and does not independently create contractual rights beyond those provided by law unless expressly stated.


42. Electronic Communications

By creating an account or conducting a transaction electronically, you agree that NSC may provide service-related communications electronically.

These may include:

  • account notifications;
  • registration confirmations;
  • event updates;
  • security notices;
  • billing communications;
  • consent records;
  • reports;
  • recruiting-related notifications; and
  • legal notices where permitted.

Marketing communications remain subject to applicable consent and opt-out requirements.

Electronic records and electronic signatures may be used to form binding agreements where permitted by law.


43. Service Availability

NSC does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation of its websites, Network, reports or digital services.

Services may be temporarily unavailable because of:

  • maintenance;
  • upgrades;
  • internet outages;
  • third-party failures;
  • security events;
  • technical errors; or
  • circumstances beyond NSC’s control.

NSC may modify or discontinue non-contracted features where reasonably necessary.

Where a user has paid for a specific service, NSC will honor any non-waivable contractual or statutory obligations associated with that purchase.


44. Account Suspension and Termination

NSC may suspend or terminate an account, restrict access, remove content or revoke credentials where NSC reasonably believes that:

  • these Terms have been violated;
  • information was falsified;
  • account security has been compromised;
  • personnel credentials are no longer valid;
  • athlete data is being misused;
  • payment obligations have not been satisfied;
  • unlawful activity has occurred;
  • another user is being endangered;
  • NSC systems are being attacked or abused; or
  • suspension is reasonably necessary to protect NSC, athletes or other users.

Where practicable and appropriate, NSC may provide notice and an opportunity to correct the violation.

Serious misconduct may result in immediate termination.

Termination does not automatically require destruction of records NSC may lawfully retain under its Privacy Policy or applicable law.


45. No Warranties

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NSC WEBSITES, DIGITAL SERVICES, ATHLETIC INFORMATION, REPORTS, ANALYTICAL TOOLS AND RELATED CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.”

NSC DOES NOT WARRANT THAT:

  • A SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED;
  • EVERY ERROR WILL BE CORRECTED;
  • THIRD-PARTY INFORMATION WILL ALWAYS BE ACCURATE;
  • AN ATHLETE WILL RECEIVE A PARTICULAR OPPORTUNITY;
  • AN ANALYTICAL MODEL WILL PREDICT FUTURE PERFORMANCE;
  • AN ATHLETE COMPARISON WILL PRODUCE A PARTICULAR RESULT; OR
  • A SERVICE WILL MEET EVERY USER’S INDIVIDUAL EXPECTATIONS.

Nothing in this section excludes a warranty that cannot lawfully be disclaimed.


46. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BEYOND SPORTS, LLC, NSC AND THEIR OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND AUTHORIZED SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM USE OF A DIGITAL NSC SERVICE, INCLUDING LOSS OF OPPORTUNITY, LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA OR THIRD-PARTY RECRUITING DECISIONS.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NSC’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING FROM A DIGITAL OR SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF:

(A) THE AMOUNT THE USER PAID TO NSC FOR THE SERVICE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY; OR
(B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).

This limitation does not apply where prohibited by law.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability for fraud, willful misconduct, or other liability that applicable law does not permit NSC to limit.

Claims involving physical participation in an NSC event are additionally governed by the applicable event-specific agreements and applicable law.


47. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Beyond Sports, LLC and its officers, employees and agents from third-party claims arising from:

  • your unlawful use of an NSC service;
  • your material violation of these Terms;
  • content you submit that infringes another person’s rights;
  • your fraudulent misrepresentation;
  • your unauthorized disclosure or misuse of restricted athlete information; or
  • your intentional misuse of NSC systems.

This provision does not require an individual consumer to indemnify NSC for NSC’s own unlawful conduct or for obligations that cannot lawfully be shifted to the user.


48. Copyright Complaints

NSC respects intellectual-property rights.

A person who believes material available through an NSC-controlled service infringes that person’s copyright may submit a written copyright complaint identifying:

  • the copyrighted work;
  • the allegedly infringing material;
  • where the material appears;
  • the complainant’s contact information;
  • a statement of good-faith belief that the use is unauthorized; and
  • any other information reasonably required by applicable law.

Copyright complaints may be submitted through the NSC Contact page or sent to the mailing address listed below with the designation “Copyright Notice.”

If NSC designates a formal DMCA agent, the applicable agent information should also be published as required by law.


49. Feedback and Suggestions

If you voluntarily provide ideas, suggestions or feedback concerning NSC services, you grant NSC permission to use that feedback without restriction or compensation, provided NSC does not thereby obtain ownership of unrelated proprietary material that you clearly identify as confidential before disclosure and that NSC agrees in writing to receive as confidential.

Do not submit confidential business information through ordinary feedback channels.


50. Informal Resolution of Disputes

Before filing a lawsuit concerning these Terms, the parties should attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally.

A user may send a written notice describing the dispute and requested resolution to NSC using the contact information below.

NSC may respond and attempt to resolve the matter without litigation.

Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking urgent injunctive or equitable relief where reasonably necessary to protect intellectual property, confidential information, system security or personal safety.


51. Governing Law

Except where applicable law requires otherwise, these Terms and disputes arising from them are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Mandatory consumer protections of another jurisdiction remain applicable to the extent they cannot lawfully be waived.


52. Venue and Jurisdiction

Except where applicable law requires otherwise, any lawsuit arising from these Terms or an NSC digital service shall be brought in a state court of competent jurisdiction located in Loudoun County, Virginia, or, where federal jurisdiction exists, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia.

Each party consents to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts to the extent legally permitted.

Event-specific claims may additionally be affected by the law of the jurisdiction in which the event occurs and the applicable event agreement.


53. No Waiver of Non-Waivable Rights

Nothing in these Terms is intended to waive or limit any consumer, privacy, child-protection or other statutory right that applicable law prohibits a person from waiving.

If any contractual limitation conflicts with a non-waivable legal right, the applicable law controls.


54. Changes to These Terms

NSC may update these Terms as its services, technology, Network functionality or legal obligations evolve.

The “Last Updated” date identifies the most recent revision.

For ordinary prospective changes, updated Terms may become effective when posted or on the effective date identified in the updated version.

For material changes affecting an existing paid service, account relationship or legal right, NSC may provide additional notice or request renewed acceptance where appropriate or legally required.

Changes will not retroactively eliminate rights that have already accrued where applicable law prohibits doing so.


55. Assignment

You may not transfer your NSC account or assign your rights under these Terms without NSC’s written consent.

NSC may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, reorganization, acquisition, financing, sale of assets or transfer of an applicable business operation, subject to applicable law.


56. Severability

If a provision of these Terms is determined to be unlawful or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent legally permissible or severed as necessary.

The remaining provisions will continue in effect unless applicable law requires otherwise.


57. No Waiver

NSC’s failure to enforce a provision of these Terms on one occasion does not constitute a continuing waiver of that provision or any other provision.

Any waiver by NSC must be expressly authorized.


58. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with applicable supplemental terms, event agreements, subscription terms and other agreements expressly incorporated for a particular service, constitute the agreement governing that service.

They supersede prior inconsistent terms relating to the same subject matter.


59. Survival

Provisions that by their nature should continue after termination will survive, including provisions concerning:

  • intellectual property;
  • restricted use of athlete information;
  • research records as permitted by law;
  • payment obligations;
  • disclaimers;
  • limitations of liability;
  • indemnification;
  • governing law;
  • venue; and
  • dispute resolution.
