Terms of Service

1. Agreement to Terms

By creating an account or using Zetavolt NIL (the "Service"), you agree to these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the Service. These Terms form a binding contract between you and Zetavolt, the operator of the Service.

2. The Service is Software Only

Zetavolt is a technology platform. We provide software that helps athletes, brands, agents, guardians, and schools discover each other, communicate, and document NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) activities. We are not a party to any deal, transaction, contract, or relationship formed between users. We do not act as an agent, broker, fiduciary, attorney, accountant, financial advisor, or sponsor for any user. We do not endorse, verify the truthfulness of, or guarantee any post, profile, brand offer, content, or transaction on the Service.

3. Eligibility & Minor Athletes

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you are under 18, you may only use the Service with the active consent and ongoing supervision of a parent or legal guardian who is also a registered user. You and your guardian are responsible for compliance with all state, local, and athletic-association rules that apply to your participation.

4. User Content & Conduct

You are solely responsible for everything you post, message, upload, or otherwise transmit through the Service ("User Content"). You retain ownership of your User Content. You grant Zetavolt a worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, display, distribute, and adapt your User Content as necessary to operate and improve the Service. You represent and warrant that you own or have all necessary rights to your User Content and that it does not infringe any third-party rights or violate any law.

5. NIL Deals & Compliance — Your Responsibility

You are solely responsible for the legal, tax, and compliance consequences of every NIL deal, content placement, brand partnership, or transaction you enter into. This includes, without limitation:

• Compliance with all state high school athletic association rules (e.g., FHSAA in Florida) and any school district policies;
• Compliance with all NCAA, NJCAA, NAIA, or other governing-body bylaws as applicable;
• Compliance with all federal, state, and local tax laws (including filing returns and paying self-employment and income taxes);
• Compliance with FTC endorsement guidelines (16 C.F.R. Part 255), including required disclosure on all sponsored content;
• Sports-agent registration in every state where required;
• Disclosure of every deal to the athlete's school's athletic director, compliance officer, or coach if required by local rule;
• Use of likeness, school marks, uniforms, equipment, or facilities — none of which Zetavolt warrants you have the right to use.

Zetavolt is not a substitute for legal, tax, or compliance counsel. Consult a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction before signing any deal.

6. No Warranties — "AS IS"

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranty of any kind, express or implied. Zetavolt expressly disclaims all warranties, including the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, and any warranty arising from course of dealing or usage of trade. Zetavolt does not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, accurate, or that any defect will be corrected. Any reliance you place on AI recommendations, brand trust scores, NIL value estimates, leaderboards, contract reviews, moderation outcomes, or any other automated output is at your sole risk.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Zetavolt, its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, and licensors shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, including without limitation damages for lost profits, lost data, lost goodwill, loss of NIL opportunities, school discipline, loss of athletic eligibility, brand or sponsorship disputes, tax liability, or personal injury, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Service, whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or any other legal theory, even if Zetavolt has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Zetavolt's total aggregate liability for any and all claims relating to the Service shall not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars ($100.00).

8. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Zetavolt, its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, assigns, licensors, and service providers (collectively, the "Zetavolt Parties") from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings, liabilities, damages, judgments, settlements, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) arising from or related to:

• Your use of or access to the Service;
• Your User Content, posts, messages, comments, wall posts, brand briefs, missions, applications, deals, contracts, or any communications you initiate or accept on the Service;
• Your violation of these Terms or any law, regulation, athletic-association rule, school policy, or third-party right;
• Your tax liability, missed disclosures, lost athletic eligibility, school sanction, or any other consequence of an NIL deal you entered into;
• Any dispute between you and another user, including brands, athletes, agents, parents, schools, or third parties;
• Any claim that your User Content infringes intellectual property, defames a person, violates privacy or publicity rights, or constitutes unauthorized use of a school's marks, uniform, facilities, or likeness;
• Any breach of your representations or warranties in these Terms.

Zetavolt reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you. You will fully cooperate with Zetavolt in asserting any available defense. This obligation survives termination of your account and of these Terms.

9. No Legal, Tax, or Financial Advice

Nothing displayed on, generated by, or returned from the Service — including but not limited to AI-generated contract summaries, NIL value estimates, state-rule explanations, brand trust scores, deal recommendations, or any text written by an AI agent — constitutes legal, tax, accounting, financial, or compliance advice. Consult a qualified, licensed professional in your jurisdiction before making any decision affecting your finances, eligibility, taxes, or legal status.

10. Brand and Athlete Verification

Verified badges, brand trust scores, identity-verification tiers, and similar indicators reflect the information made available to Zetavolt at the time of verification. Zetavolt does not guarantee the continuing accuracy of any verification, the trustworthiness or solvency of any brand, the safety of any deal, or the truthfulness of any user. You are responsible for your own due diligence before transacting.

11. Termination

Zetavolt may suspend or terminate your account at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without notice. You may delete your account at any time. Sections 4-9, 12-14, and any provision that by its nature should survive will survive termination.

12. Governing Law & Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in Hillsborough County, Florida, in accordance with its Consumer Arbitration Rules. You and Zetavolt each waive the right to a jury trial and the right to participate in a class action.

13. Changes to These Terms

Zetavolt may modify these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Service after a change constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms. We will make a reasonable effort to notify users of material changes.

14. Entire Agreement; Severability

These Terms, together with any policies referenced herein, constitute the entire agreement between you and Zetavolt regarding the Service. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force.

This document is a template. Before public launch, consult a licensed Florida attorney to review and tailor these Terms to your specific business model, especially Sections 7, 8, and 12.
