1.4 Authority: You represent and warrant that you have the full right, power, and authority to enter into these Terms and to perform your obligations hereunder. If you are using the App to create or manage a community on behalf of an entity (such as a Supporters Group Administrator), you represent and warrant that you are authorized to bind that entity to these Terms.

2. THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU, THE SUPPORTERS GROUP, AND US

You are an “Authorized User” on our App that is utilized by a “Supporters Group.”

A Supporters Group is an organization or group that has invited you to participate in its membership through the use of this App (e.g., a local fan club, an official fan Trust, a professional Club, or a media property). The Supporters Group has agreed to these terms and conditions to permit them to create and manage this community.

Role of the Supporters Group:

You acknowledge and agree that the Supporters Group (and its designated Administrators, whether an official leader of a formal entity (ex: group is 501c3 with elected leaders) or a volunteer who has agreed to manage a group of peers) is solely responsible for:

(a) Informing you of any relevant policies, practices, and settings that may impact the processing of your data;

(b) Obtaining any rights, permissions, or consents from you that are necessary for the lawful use of your User Data; and

(c) Responding to and resolving any dispute with you relating to the Supporters Group’s activities, membership fees, or content.

Chant’s Role:

Chant provides the platform infrastructure. We make no representations or warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, to you relating to the Services, which are provided to you on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis.

3. MARKETPLACE TERMS: TICKETS, STORE, AND MEMBERSHIPS

The App allows Supporters Groups to list and sell items, including but not limited to event tickets, merchandise (“Store”), and membership packages.

3.1 Venue Only: Chant is a platform provider and is not the buyer or seller of these items. The contract for the sale of these goods and services is directly between you (the Buyer) and the Supporters Group (the Seller).

3.2 Tickets & Events: Tickets listed by Groups may be for official matches or social events. The Supporters Group is solely responsible for ticket fulfillment, entry validity, and event management. Chant is not responsible if an event is cancelled, if the Group fails to provide entry, or for any safety issues at the event.

3.3 Merchandise: Fulfillment of Store items is the sole responsibility of the Supporters Group or their third-party vendors. Chant does not handle shipping, inventory, or fulfillment.

3.4 Refunds: All dealings regarding refunds, returns, or chargebacks are solely between you and the Supporters Group.

3.5 Transaction Fees: You acknowledge that Chant charges a transaction fee on purchases to cover platform and processing costs. This fee is non-refundable, even if the primary purchase is subsequently refunded by the Group.

3.6 EU/UK Right of Withdrawal (Digital Content): If you are a consumer in the EU or UK purchasing digital content or services (e.g., app membership access) via the App, you expressly consent to the immediate performance of the contract and acknowledge that you thereby lose your right of withdrawal (cooling-off period) once the digital content or service has been provided.

3.7 Third-Party Sponsors and Content: The App may display sponsor logos, text, and other content (“Sponsor Content”) facilitated by Chant or the Supporters Group. Chant is not responsible for the products, services, or claims made by any third-party sponsor. Any interaction or transaction between you and a Sponsor is solely between you and the Sponsor. We make no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy, legality, or quality of any Sponsor Content.

4. GENERAL TERMS OF USE

4.1 Modifications: We reserve the right to modify the Terms from time to time. If we make any material change, we will post a prominent notice within the App. Continued use of the App after such notice constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

4.2 App Stores: These Terms incorporate Apple’s and Google’s standard terms and conditions by reference where applicable to the version of the App you have downloaded.

4.3 User Account: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process and to update such information to keep it accurate, current, and complete. Chant reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account if any information provided proves to be inaccurate, not current, or incomplete.

4.4 Termination: Chant reserves the right, without notice and in our sole discretion, to terminate your right to access or use the App, or any portion thereof, and to block or prevent your future access to and use of the App. We may do so for any reason, including if we believe you have violated these Terms.

5. USER OBLIGATIONS AND CODE OF CONDUCT

5.1 User Content Definition: “User Content” means any text, photos, audio, video, logos, trademarks, comments, “Chants,” or other materials that you upload, post, or display on the App for public or group viewing.

5.3 Moderation: Supporters Group Admins and Chant reserve the right to remove any User Content and suspend any user who violates these standards without notice. While some chat channels are private to a Group, you acknowledge that content posted there is accessible to Group Admins and Chant for moderation and safety purposes.

  • Blocking and Reporting: The App provides a feature for users to block any other user and/or report content; such blocked content will be hidden from the reporting user immediately.

6.3 Skill-Based Games: For any prediction games or fantasy-style contests where an entry fee is paid, you warrant that such games are “games of skill” under the laws of your jurisdiction and do not constitute gambling.

6.4 Chant’s Disclaimer: You acknowledge that Chant and the relevant App Store Operators (such as Apple Inc. and Google LLC) are not sponsors of, or responsible for, any Promotions conducted on the App. Chant provides the platform tools “as is” and makes no representation that your use of them for contests is legal in your specific jurisdiction. You bear full responsibility for the legality of your Promotions.

9. AI INTEGRATION

Al Features: The Service integrates third-party artificial intelligence tools (“Al Services”) to assist in content generation, translation, and data analysis.

Roles:

  • Chant’s Role: Chant acts as a “Deployer” (as defined under applicable Al regulations, including the EU AI Act) by integrating these third-party models into the App to provide functionality to you. Chant is not the “Provider” or developer of the underlying foundation models.
  • Your Role: When you or a Supporters Group Admin utilizes these Al Services to generate content (e.g., drafting news posts, creating images, or summarizing chats), you acknowledge that you act as the “Deployer” of that specific output. You are responsible for reviewing all Al-generated content for accuracy, bias, and compliance with these Terms before publishing it to your community.

Accuracy Disclaimer: You acknowledge that Al Services are probabilistic and may produce inaccurate, misleading, or offensive results (“Hallucinations”). You should not rely on Al outputs for medical, legal, or financial advice.

No Automated Decision Making: Chant does not utilize Al for fully automated decision-making that produces legal effects concerning you (e.g., banning users) without human review.

11. INDEMNIFICATION

Indemnification by You: You (the Authorized User) agree to indemnify and hold harmless both Chant (as the Platform provider) and the Supporters Group (as the Community administrator) from and against any and all losses, expenses, damages, costs, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) resulting from: (a) your use of the App; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including Intellectual Property Rights or privacy rights (e.g., uploading a trademarked logo without permission); (d) any claim arising from a Promotion, contest, or sweepstakes you conduct via the App; or (e) any breach of your confidentiality obligations under these Terms. If you are using the App on behalf of a Supporters Group (e.g., as an Administrator), you agree that this indemnification obligation also applies to the Supporters Group entity.

Indemnification by Chant: Chant agrees to indemnify and hold you harmless from and against any third-party claim alleging that your authorized use of the App platform (excluding User Content or Third Party IP) infringes such third party’s Intellectual Property Rights. For clarity, Chant shall have no obligation to indemnify you for any claim arising from your use of the App in a manner that is expressly prohibited or unauthorized by these Terms.

Procedure & Control of Defense: The party seeking indemnification must promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim. However, Chant reserves the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate with our defense of these claims. You shall not settle any matter without the prior written consent of Chant.

12. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms and any access to or use of the App will be governed by the laws of the state of Georgia, excluding its conflict of law provisions.

Proviso for International Consumers: If you are a consumer resident in the UK or EU, you may also benefit from mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which you are resident, and nothing in these Terms affects your rights as a consumer to rely on such mandatory provisions of local law.

13. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.

Binding Arbitration: Any dispute or claim arising in any way from your use of the App or these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision.

Class Action Waiver: We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial.

INTERNATIONAL CARVE-OUT: THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT APPLIES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. IF THE LAWS OF YOUR COUNTRY OF RESIDENCE (E.G., THE UNITED KINGDOM, CANADA, OR AN EU MEMBER STATE) PROHIBIT MANDATORY ARBITRATION FOR CONSUMER DISPUTES, THEN ANY DISPUTES SHALL BE RESOLVED IN THE COMPETENT COURTS OF YOUR COUNTRY OF RESIDENCE.
