Terms of Service

Last updated: July 8, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using PitchFilthy (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Service.

These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Karls Group LLC ("Company", "we", "us", or "our"). We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service. If you are between 13 and 18, you may only use the Service with the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian. The Service is not available to anyone under 13.

2. Description of Service

PitchFilthy is a baseball analytics platform that allows coaches, analysts, players, and teams to upload pitch tracking CSV files (Trackman, Rapsodo, Yakkertech, and others) and generate pitching reports, hitting reports, umpire scorecards, catcher framing reports, and bullpen reports. The Service also includes player development plans, a 3D pitch visualizer, player search, shareable report links, and a CSV upload library. Team and Facility plans additionally support multi-user organizations with coach and player seats, member invitations, and report assignment to players.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Service at any time, with or without notice. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Service.

3. Account Registration

To access most features of the Service, you must create an account. You agree to:

  • Provide accurate, complete, and current information during registration
  • Maintain the security of your account credentials and not share them with others
  • Notify us immediately at pitchfilthy@gmail.com of any unauthorized access to your account
  • Be responsible for all activity that occurs under your account

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or that we reasonably believe are being used fraudulently or abusively.

4. Subscriptions and Payment

Certain features of the Service require a paid subscription. By subscribing, you agree to the following:

4.1 Billing

Subscription fees are billed in advance on a recurring basis (monthly or annual, depending on the plan you select). All fees are in U.S. dollars and are non-refundable, except as required by applicable law, including California's Automatic Renewal Law. Applicable federal, state, and local taxes (including sales tax on SaaS subscriptions where required by law) may be added to your subscription fee at checkout. Tax obligations vary by jurisdiction; the applicable tax amount will be disclosed before you complete your purchase.

4.2 Payment Processing

Payments are processed by a third-party payment processor. By providing payment information, you authorize us to charge your selected payment method for the applicable subscription fees. You represent that you are authorized to use the payment method you provide.

4.3 Cancellation

You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. You will retain access to paid features through the end of the period you have already paid for.

4.4 Price Changes

We may change subscription prices at any time with at least 30 days' advance notice. If you do not cancel before the price change takes effect, your continued use of the Service constitutes acceptance of the new price.

4.5 Free Tier

If we offer a free tier, we reserve the right to modify or discontinue it at any time. We may impose usage limits on free accounts, including limits on the number of uploads, reports, or API calls.

4.6 Failed Payments and Chargebacks

If a payment fails (e.g., due to an expired card or insufficient funds), we will notify you and attempt to retry the charge. If payment cannot be collected within 7 days of the due date, your account may be downgraded to a free tier or suspended until payment is resolved. Paid features will be restored promptly upon successful payment.

Initiating a chargeback or payment dispute without first contacting us to resolve the issue may result in immediate account suspension. If a chargeback is found to be unwarranted, you remain responsible for the original amount due plus any fees imposed by the payment processor. Accounts subject to fraudulent chargebacks may be permanently terminated.

4.7 Auto-Renewal

Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period (monthly or annual, as applicable) unless you cancel before the renewal date. We will send a reminder notice before your subscription renews so you have an opportunity to cancel if you do not wish to continue. You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings.

California residents: under California's Automatic Renewal Law, you may cancel your subscription at any time. If you cancel a prepaid annual subscription, you are entitled to a prorated refund for the unused portion of your subscription term in accordance with California law. To request a prorated refund, contact us at pitchfilthy@gmail.com.

5. User Content and Uploaded Data

5.1 Ownership

You retain ownership of all content you upload to the Service, including CSV files, pitch tracking data, team logos, and photographs ("User Content"). By uploading User Content, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to access, store, process, and display your User Content solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you. Logos and images you upload are used exclusively to render your reports and are not accessible to other users of the Service, except where you choose to share a report link, in which case the content of that report — including any uploaded logo — is visible to anyone who receives the link.

5.2 Third-Party Athlete Data

You acknowledge that CSV files you upload may contain personal data and performance statistics of third-party athletes. You represent and warrant that:

  • You have the legal right and appropriate authorization to upload, process, and share any third-party data contained in your files
  • Your upload and use of such data complies with all applicable laws, including applicable data protection and privacy laws
  • Users uploading data about student-athletes represent that their uploads comply with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and any applicable state student privacy laws, including but not limited to California's Student Online Personal Information Protection Act (SOPIPA), New York Education Law 2-d, and equivalent laws in other states
  • K-12 educational institutions using the Service acknowledge that additional obligations may apply to them under state student data privacy laws; such institutions should contact us at pitchfilthy@gmail.com before use to discuss applicable compliance requirements
  • Users uploading data that includes physical measurements (arm angle, release height, spin rate, body position data, or similar metrics) warrant that they have obtained any written consents required by applicable biometric privacy laws — including the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) — before uploading data about athletes in covered jurisdictions
  • Users uploading data about athletes in Illinois, Texas, or Washington specifically acknowledge the biometric privacy laws of those states and warrant full compliance with those laws with respect to any uploaded data
  • Users uploading data about minors have obtained all required parental or guardian consents before uploading any such data

We are not responsible for the content of your uploads or for ensuring you have authorization to upload third-party data. You indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims arising from your unauthorized use of third-party data.

5.3 Data Isolation and Organization Sharing

For individual accounts, your uploaded data — including all athlete names and performance statistics — is accessible only within your own account, and no other user of the Service can access, search, or view it.

If you use a Team or Facility plan and create an organization, data is shared among the members of that organization: owners and coaches can view and manage reports created within the organization, and players you invite can view only the reports assigned to them. As the account owner, you are responsible for who you invite to your organization and for removing members who should no longer have access. No user outside your organization can access, search, or view your data.

5.4 Right of Publicity

Some states grant athletes rights over the commercial use of their name, image, likeness (NIL), or performance statistics, sometimes referred to as "right of publicity" laws. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Service — including generating reports, sharing links, or making use of Player Search results — does not violate any athlete's right of publicity or NIL rights under applicable law. We make no representation that the Service is suitable for commercial use involving athlete names or statistics in jurisdictions with right of publicity or NIL statutes.

5.5 Prohibited Content

You agree not to upload content that:

  • Infringes any third party's intellectual property, privacy, or other rights
  • Contains malware, viruses, or other harmful code
  • Is fabricated, falsified, or intended to deceive
  • Violates any applicable law or regulation

5.6 Shared Report Links

When you generate and share a report link, you are solely responsible for controlling who receives that link. Shared links expire after 14 days but may be accessible to any person who obtains the URL during that period. Do not share links containing sensitive athlete data with unauthorized parties.

5.7 Uploaded Logos, Images, and Headshots

The Service lets you upload images — including team and school logos and player headshots — to brand and personalize your reports. Logos and headshots are frequently protected by copyright, trademark, and/or an individual's right of publicity, and those rights are typically owned by someone other than the person uploading them (for example, a school owns its logo; a photographer owns a headshot; an athlete controls their likeness). By uploading any image, you represent and warrant that:

  • You own the image or have obtained all licenses, permissions, and consents necessary to upload it and to use it within the Service, including any required trademark license, copyright license, and right-of-publicity or likeness consent
  • Your upload and use of the image does not and will not infringe or violate the intellectual property, publicity, privacy, or other rights of any third party — including any university, college, school, team, league, photographer, or athlete
  • You will not upload logos, marks, or images for any purpose that is misleading, that falsely implies affiliation or endorsement, or that is otherwise unlawful

We do not review uploaded images for rights clearance and are not responsible for verifying that you hold the necessary rights. You are solely responsible for the images you upload, and the indemnification in Section 12 applies fully to any claim arising from them. If you do not hold the necessary rights to an image, do not upload it.

6. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms
  • Attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, or extract the source code of the Service
  • Use automated bots, scrapers, or other tools to access the Service in a way that exceeds normal usage
  • Interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Service or its underlying infrastructure
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service or its related systems
  • Use the Service to build a competing product or service
  • Resell, sublicense, or otherwise commercialize access to the Service without our express written consent
  • Impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity

Names, logos, uniforms, mascots, and other marks of universities, colleges, schools, teams, and leagues that may appear in reports (including in data you upload or logos you provide) are the property of their respective owners and are not affiliated with or endorsed by PitchFilthy. We claim no rights in them, and their appearance within your reports does not imply any relationship between those organizations and PitchFilthy.

8. DMCA and Copyright Policy

  • Provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination will remain in effect, including Sections 7–11 and 13

You may terminate your account at any time by contacting us at pitchfilthy@gmail.com.

Account Inactivity

If your account has had no login activity and no active subscription for 24 consecutive months, we reserve the right to designate your account as inactive and delete your account data, including all uploaded CSV files and associated pitch row data, after providing 30 days' advance notice to the email address on file. We will make reasonable efforts to deliver this notice, but are not responsible for undelivered email. To prevent deletion, simply log in to your account during the notice period.

If negotiation fails, disputes shall be resolved through binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association, with proceedings conducted in English. You waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration.

Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction.
