By accessing or using the Pitchline website (the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, you should not use the Service. These terms apply to all visitors, readers and contributors.
2. About the Service
Pitchline is an independent online publication providing editorial coverage of football, including World Cup reporting, tactical analysis, player profiles and related features. The Service is provided for general informational and entertainment purposes.
3. Use of content
All editorial content on Pitchline, including articles, images, graphics and design elements, is the intellectual property of Pitchline or its licensors and is protected by applicable copyright and trademark laws. You may view, share and link to our content for personal, non-commercial purposes. Republishing, redistributing or reproducing content in whole or in part for commercial use requires our prior written permission.
4. User conduct
When interacting with the Service — including submitting messages through our contact form — you agree not to upload, post or transmit content that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, fraudulent or that infringes the rights of any third party. We reserve the right to refuse, restrict or remove access for any user who breaches these terms.
5. Accuracy of information
We take editorial standards seriously and aim to ensure that all reporting is accurate and well-sourced. However, the Service is provided on an “as is” basis and Pitchline makes no warranties, express or implied, regarding the completeness, accuracy or reliability of any content. Fixtures, results and analysis may be updated as events develop, and you should not rely on any single article for time-sensitive decisions.
6. Third-party links
The Service may contain links to external websites operated by third parties. Pitchline is not responsible for the content, policies or practices of any third-party site, and inclusion of a link does not imply endorsement.
7. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Pitchline, its writers, editors and operators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages arising out of your access to or use of the Service, including loss of data, loss of profits or any other intangible loss.
8. Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms of Service from time to time to reflect changes in our practice or the law. The current version will always be available on this page, and material changes will be highlighted at the top of the document. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
9. Governing law
These terms are governed by applicable international internet law and the law of the jurisdiction in which Pitchline is operated. Any disputes arising from your use of the Service will be resolved on that basis.
