Terms, an earlier version

Version served from 14:36 UTC to 16:37 UTC on 2026-10-16

These terms took effect on the day this site opened and this version is dated 2026-10-16.

Who these terms are with

These terms are an agreement between you and Goodspeed LLC (formerly Scribely LLC), a Florida limited liability company, which runs this site and the app as GoodSpeed Golf. Using either means you accept them.

Who can use it

You must be 13 or older to use GoodSpeed Golf, as a guest or with an account. A host can put a younger player's name on the scorecard without that player using the app.

What it does

GoodSpeed Golf keeps score. It never holds, moves or guarantees money between players. Any amounts players agree on are their own business, and players are responsible for following the laws where they play.

Side games are kept in units. A host may not charge a fee to join a game or take any share of what players agree on among themselves; GoodSpeed Golf keeps score, takes nothing, and sells nothing about side games. Only players 21 or older may agree on stakes in any game. Hosts and players must keep anyone under 21 out of any game with stakes.

Handicaps

A handicap number you type in is shown with the system you name and the date you entered it. We never recalculate it and we do not claim it is official. A round's strokes today are worked out from the numbers players enter, and any event or club decides for itself whether to accept them.

After three rounds that count for it, you get a GoodSpeed handicap: our own number, worked out by GoodSpeed Golf from your rounds in the app and revised every night. A crew handicap is the same number from one crew's rounds only. Neither is an official handicap; both stay private unless you share them, and each event or club decides for itself whether to accept them.

What you post

Messages, scores and anything else you add stay yours. You let us show them inside the product to the people in your round or crew, and on pages you choose to share, and for nothing else. We do not use your messages, photos or name in marketing without asking you; where marketing shows a real round, every name and the course are changed so no one can be identified.

If you upload a logo you confirm you may use it and let us show it on the event's pages, prints and boards. A heckle is a message aimed at a player by name, and the same rules apply to it as to any message.

A host may publish a round's recap, showing each player's display name and scores; any player can hide themselves from recaps in settings.

You can report a message, and the host of a round can remove one. We read reports and may remove content or suspend an account that breaks these terms. We are not obliged to check what anyone posts before it appears.

Do not post anything unlawful, threatening or abusive, anything that is someone else's private information, or anything you have no right to share.

Reports go to our moderation queue. We may hide a message or a name, pause an account for a time, or close an account that breaks these terms. To appeal, write to us at the contact page or to support@goodspeed.app.

Accounts

Keep your sign-in to yourself. You can sign out of every device and ask for your account to be deleted in Settings.

Prizes and events

Prizes in any event are the organizer's responsibility, not ours.

Credits, passes and refunds

A casual round is free. A trip or an outing costs one credit per player per round, paid by the host, and only for players with a score recorded. A league costs one credit per player per round (one round a week), paid by the host, and only for players with a score recorded. A host's first event is free: a first trip or outing in full, and a first league for its first round, while the host has run no trip, outing or league before; casual rounds do not count.

If the host has no credits when a player's round is charged, the round plays as normal, and the recap and the reports of that trip, outing or league wait until the host covers it.

Pro is a player's own card, course cards, stats and history. Your first 3 Pro rounds are free; after that a Pro round costs you one credit, unless a Pro pass covers it.

The season plan covers every trip and league of one crew for a year from purchase; like a Pro pass, it is refunded by support. Club plans are sold by written agreement with the club, which states their term and price.

Credits never expire. Unused credits can be refunded for 30 days after purchase, while every credit in the pack is still unused. Credits cannot be transferred or exchanged for cash.

Credits and passes bought in an app store are sold by that store, which takes payment and handles refunds under its own terms. A Pro pass bought in a store renews yearly until you cancel it in the store.

A Pro pass runs for a year from the day it starts. Refunds of credit bundles bought on the web are requested from your billing page, for 30 days after purchase; store purchases are refunded by the store. A Pro pass or a plan bought on the web is refunded by support; write to support@goodspeed.app.

Referrals

When a friend hosts their first paid event round (a trip, an outing or a league week) through your link, you receive 5 credits. We may withhold credits earned through accounts that break these terms.

Trips and reports

A trip keeps several rounds together with running standings. Its host can switch on reports: pages, cards, images and emails built from the trip's scores and chat. Quotes from the chat appear only to the trip's members. You can hide yourself from recaps and reports in settings. An outing's organizer and co-hosts see its sign-ups.

Email

We email you sign-in codes; receipts and refund notices for what you buy; a confirmation when you register for an outing and your group and start time before it; league reminders if you are on a league's roster; a confirmation when a host adds your address to a trip's reports, and the reports if you confirm; and one invitation if you joined the waitlist. Every report and league email carries an unsubscribe link, and the waitlist invitation says how to be taken off the list by email. We never sell or share your address.

The service

The beta is offered as it is. We work to keep every score safe, and we may change or stop parts of the service. If we close the service we refund unused credits and the unused part of any pass or season plan: web purchases from us, store purchases through the store where it lets us refund, and otherwise the unused part paid to you directly. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for losses that come from using it.

Changes

If these terms change in a way that matters, we email every account before the change takes effect and keep the previous version linked here. The new version is posted here with its date, and using the service after that means you accept it.
