Terms of Service

Last Updated: April, 2025

This Terms of Service Agreement ("Agreement") governs your use of the GOLF+ website and the GOLF+ virtual reality application (collectively, the "Service"). The Service is operated by Golf Scope, Inc. ("GOLF+", "we", "our", or "us"). By using the GOLF+ website or application, you ("you" or "the User") agree to the terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree, you must not use the Service. We may update these terms at any time. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted means you accept the revised terms.

1. Description of Product and Service

  • Have a compatible VR device (e.g., Meta Quest 2, 3 or 3s)
  • Maintain internet access and any associated fees
  • Maintain any required data connectivity
  • Keep your account information up-to-date, especially if you change or deactivate your email address

3. Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." We make no guarantees that it will be uninterrupted or error-free.

6. Rules and Responsibilities
Users agree not to use the Service to:

13. Unsolicited Ideas Policy
GOLF+ values your feedback and enthusiasm, but our company policy is to not accept or consider any unsolicited ideas, suggestions, proposals, or materials (“Submissions”). This policy exists to prevent misunderstandings or disputes if our products or services appear similar to ideas submitted to us.

If, despite this policy, you submit unsolicited ideas, you agree that:

·        Your submission is non-confidential and non-proprietary.

·        GOLF+ has no obligation to review, respond to, or return the submission.

·        GOLF+ may use, copy, modify, publish, redistribute, or commercialize the submission in any way, for any purpose, without compensation or attribution to you.

We are, however, always happy to receive feedback on existing features. If you'd like to share feedback or suggestions, we encourage you to do so in our Discord channel, where our team actively participates.

This policy applies regardless of any statements you include with the submission.

14. User Data

In accordance with our Privacy Policy as well as in compliance with Meta’s confidentiality requirements, specifically referred to in Section 8.2 and Section 8.3 of the Meta Developer Distribution Agreement, we inform our users that we may, at times, collect information regarding other applications that they have downloaded from the Meta store. This data is obtained solely for the purpose of enhancing user experience and improving our services and is treated with the utmost confidentiality. This information is never disclosed or shared with any third parties.

15. Payment Terms and Virtual Items
You may purchase access to virtual items or features within the Service. All purchases grant a limited, non-transferable license and are non-refundable, to the extent permitted by law. Virtual items do not represent real-world value and may not be traded or sold. You understand that while you may “earn,” “buy,” or “purchase” Virtual Items, you do not legally own them. Any virtual balance in your account does not reflect real-world currency or value.

 

By completing a purchase, you are making an offer to obtain a limited license for virtual items, which becomes effective once payment is accepted through your platform (e.g., Meta, Steam, or our website).

Unauthorized transfers, sales, sublicensing, or attempts to exchange Virtual Items outside the Service (including for real-world money or value) are prohibited and may result in suspension or termination of your account.

If you reside in the European Union, you acknowledge and agree that you will lose your right to cancel the transaction under applicable EU consumer laws once we begin supplying the Virtual Item.

You are responsible for any charges, taxes, or fees incurred by you or anyone using your account. GOLF+ may revise pricing at any time. Unused Virtual Items are non-refundable when an account is closed, whether voluntarily or involuntarily.

16. Entry Fees and Wagering Restrictions
Some GOLF+ features include in-game competitions that require virtual credit entry fees. These features are intended for users aged 18+ and are for amusement only. All competitions are skill-based, and outcomes are determined by player ability. GOLF+ credits have no real-world monetary value and may not be redeemed for cash or anything of value.

GOLF+ does not allow wagering of real-world money or anything of value unless subject to a separate, express written agreement.

Use of these features may be prohibited in some countries or jurisdictions. You are responsible for ensuring your participation complies with all local, state, national, and international laws.

17. Age and Eligibility Requirements
You must be at least 13 years old (or older if required by local law) to use the Service. If you are under 18, you represent that a parent or guardian consents to your use of the Service. Parents and guardians are legally and financially responsible for any actions taken by a minor under their supervision.

18. Account and Security
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account. Do not share your credentials. You may not sell, transfer, or share your account with others. Each user is allowed only one active account. Notify us immediately if you suspect unauthorized access.

19. Real-World Prizes
We may occasionally offer real-world prizes for participation in virtual or real-world events. Winners are responsible for all taxes or documentation related to the prize. We reserve the right to replace any prize with one of equivalent value and to verify user eligibility. GOLF+ is not liable for technical errors that interfere with prize determination.

20. In-Game Competitions
GOLF+ in-game Competitions, including Tournaments, are intended purely for recreational purposes. While they may offer virtual or real-world prizes, their primary goal is to provide an enjoyable experience for participants.

By entering, you grant GOLF+ and its sponsors the right to use your username, avatar, likeness, voice, and other identifiers for promotional or marketing purposes, and agree to any additional competition-specific terms.

You release GOLF+ and its affiliates from any liability related to your participation or receipt of a prize. While we strive to run Competitions smoothly, we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free experiences. We may cancel, modify, or suspend any Competition at our discretion. All decisions regarding winners and prizes are final.

Participants must be at least 18 years old to win real-world prizes, unless we obtain verifiable parental or guardian consent. We reserve the right to verify participant age and eligibility.

Prizes are non-transferable, may not be exchanged for cash, and may be substituted with an item of equal value. Winners are responsible for any applicable taxes or reporting obligations; where required, we will issue tax forms such as IRS Form 1099.

GOLF+ may disqualify participants for violating these Terms or for unsportsmanlike, disruptive, or dishonest conduct.

21. Jurisdiction
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Texas. Any disputes shall be resolved exclusively in Texas state or federal courts.

22. Accessibility
We are committed to providing an accessible experience. Please contact us at contact@golfplusvr.com if you require accommodations.

23. Privacy Policy
Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your personal information.

If any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force. This Agreement may be assigned by GOLF+ in connection with a merger or acquisition.
