Terms & Privacy

1. Agreement to Terms; Entire Agreement

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“User,” “Subscriber,” “you,” or “your”) and TheRundown, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“TheRundown,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), governing your access to and use of the website located at therundown.io, our application programming interfaces (“API” or “APIs”), data feeds, widgets, embeddable content, mobile applications, developer tools, documentation, and all related services, features, and functionality (collectively, the “Service”).

By creating an account, accessing, or using the Service in any manner—including browsing, subscribing, making API calls, or receiving Data (as defined below)—you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and irrevocably agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy (set forth below). If you do not agree to every provision of these Terms, you must immediately cease all access to and use of the Service.

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any applicable Order Form, subscription agreement, or enterprise agreement executed between you and TheRundown (collectively, “Supplemental Agreements”), constitute the entire agreement between you and TheRundown with respect to the Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, proposals, representations, understandings, and agreements, whether oral or written. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and a Supplemental Agreement, the Supplemental Agreement shall control solely to the extent of the conflict.

2. Eligibility & Account Registration

Eligibility. You represent and warrant that: (a) you are at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is greater); (b) you have the legal capacity and authority to enter into these Terms; (c) you are not barred from using the Service under any applicable law, regulation, or sanctions program; and (d) your use of the Service will comply with all applicable local, state, national, and international laws and regulations, including but not limited to gambling, data privacy, export control, and anti-corruption laws. If you are using the Service on behalf of a company, partnership, or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have full authority to bind that entity to these Terms, and the term “you” shall refer to such entity.

Account Obligations. To access features of the Service beyond public content, you must create an account. You agree to:

• Provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and at all times thereafter;
• Maintain and promptly update your account information to keep it accurate, current, and complete;
• Maintain the strict security and confidentiality of your login credentials, API keys, and any other authentication tokens;
• Accept full responsibility for all activities that occur under your account or through your API keys, whether or not authorized by you;
• Immediately notify us at [email protected] of any unauthorized use of your account, API keys, or any other breach of security.

You may not share, transfer, sell, sublicense, or otherwise make your account, credentials, or API keys available to any third party. Each individual user or application must maintain a separate account. We reserve the right to immediately suspend or terminate any account that we reasonably believe is being shared, used in violation of these Terms, or used for fraudulent purposes, without liability to you.

3. Service Description; Data License & Restrictions

Service Description. TheRundown provides real-time and historical sports-related data, including but not limited to odds, lines, scores, statistics, schedules, player information, and related analytical information sourced from third-party sportsbooks, data providers, and publicly available sources (collectively, “Data”). The Service includes our website, API, widgets, calculators, dashboards, and related tools.

Limited Data License. Subject to your compliance with these Terms and the terms of your subscription plan, TheRundown grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Data (a) for your own internal business or personal purposes, and (b) while you subscribe to a Commercial Plan, to display Data to end users of your own websites, applications, and other products (each, a “Licensed Application”) as described under “Commercial Display” below. This license does not convey any ownership interest in the Data. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by TheRundown and its licensors.

Commercial Plans. “Commercial Plan” means the Pro tier and every higher tier of the API plans listed on our pricing page, and any plan that a Supplemental Agreement designates as a Commercial Plan. The Free and Starter tiers are not Commercial Plans and are licensed for internal business or personal use only.

Commercial Display. While you subscribe to a Commercial Plan, you may display Data, and values you derive from it such as best-price comparisons, line movement, and implied probabilities, to end users of your Licensed Applications, including end users who pay you for access, provided that:

• your Licensed Application adds its own functionality, content, or analysis and does not make Data available as a feed, export, download, bulk dataset, or API for use outside the Licensed Application;
• you do not expose raw responses from the Service and do not share, embed, or sublicense your API credentials;
• each screen, page, or view that displays Data, or a persistent element visible from it, includes the attribution “Data provided by TheRundown” (or other attribution we approve in writing), linking to https://therundown.io wherever the display supports links;
• you display sportsbook names and other source identification as delivered with the Data and do not alter or misattribute them; and
• you comply with the Data Usage Restrictions below.

Commercial Display rights end when your Commercial Plan ends or is suspended. You are responsible for your Licensed Applications, including compliance with the laws and platform rules that apply to them (such as advertising, gambling, consumer-protection, and age- or location-restriction requirements) and for your own terms with your end users, which must prohibit redistribution of the Data. Your end users are not third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. We may suspend Commercial Display rights for a Licensed Application on notice to you if we receive a third-party claim relating to it or reasonably determine that it creates legal or reputational exposure for TheRundown, and we will work with you in good faith to restore them. We may also exclude specific sources, markets, or data fields from Commercial Display on 10 days' notice, and you will stop displaying, and delete any stored copies of, the excluded Data within that period.

Sportsbook names, logos, and marks belong to their respective owners. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use a third party's trademarks, and you are solely responsible for your own use of them.

Retention. You may cache Data only as needed for the real-time functionality of your Licensed Application and for no more than 24 hours, unless your plan expressly provides otherwise or a Supplemental Agreement, such as our Commercial Display Addendum, grants you extended retention for the display of historical Data inside your Licensed Application. Historical Data included with your plan, such as opening and closing lines and your plan's odds-history window, remains available to you through the Service without any need to store it yourself.

Data Usage Restrictions. Except as expressly permitted above or under a Supplemental Agreement, you shall not and shall not permit any third party to:

• Resell, redistribute, sublicense, syndicate, or provide Data as a feed, export, download, bulk dataset, or API, or otherwise make Data available for use outside your Licensed Application;
• Cache, store, archive, or create a derivative database of Data beyond the limits described under “Retention” above;
• Offer any product or service whose primary purpose is to give third parties programmatic or bulk access to the Data, or that otherwise substitutes for the Service;
• Use Data to develop, train, fine-tune, or validate any machine learning model, artificial intelligence system, large language model, or statistical model without our prior written consent;
• Commingle Data with data from other providers in a manner that obscures or misrepresents the source of the Data;
• Remove, obscure, alter, or fail to include any proprietary notices, attribution, branding, or source identification associated with the Data;
• Use Data for any purpose that is unlawful, tortious, or otherwise prohibited by these Terms.

Supplemental Agreements. Rights beyond those described in this Section 3, including extended retention, display without attribution, white-label or embedded distribution, and written confirmation of your license scope for app-store or platform review, are available under a Supplemental Agreement such as our Commercial Display Addendum. Contact [email protected] to request one.

We reserve the right to monitor, audit, and log your use of the Service and Data to ensure compliance with these Terms and your subscription plan. You agree to cooperate with any reasonable audit request.

4. Subscription Plans, Billing & Payment

Plans & Pricing. The Service is offered under various subscription tiers, including a free tier and multiple paid tiers, as described on our Pricing page. Features, data point allocations, API rate limits, and data access vary by plan. We reserve the right to modify plan features, pricing, allocations, and availability at any time. Changes to pricing for existing subscribers will take effect at the start of the next billing cycle following 30 days' prior notice. Your continued use of the Service after such notice constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.

Ultra Trial Offers. An Ultra trial applies only when explicitly offered for the selected Ultra plan at checkout. The trial duration and subsequent recurring price are shown at checkout. At the end of an eligible trial, paid billing begins at that displayed rate unless you cancel before the trial ends.

Billing & Auto-Renewal. Paid subscriptions are billed in advance on the recurring weekly, monthly, or annual cadence you select. Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle at the then-current rate unless you cancel before the renewal date through your account dashboard. By subscribing, you expressly authorize TheRundown (and our payment processor, Stripe) to charge your payment method on file for recurring subscription fees, overage charges that apply under your effective spend-control settings, and any other amounts owed under these Terms. When metered overage is active, overage charges may generate separate invoices throughout the billing cycle as described in Section 4(d).

Data Point Usage & Overage. Your subscription plan includes a specified allocation of data points per billing period. Each API response, data feed delivery, or equivalent data retrieval consumes data points as metered by our systems. TheRundown's measurement of data point consumption shall be the sole and definitive basis for calculating usage and overage. Monthly and annual self-serve subscriptions begin in block mode: API access pauses at the effective hard cap, and excess usage is not automatically charged unless you explicitly enable metered overage. New weekly self-serve subscriptions begin in metered bill mode, with excess usage automatically charged at the plan's published per-data-point rate. When you explicitly enable metered overage on a monthly or annual self-serve subscription without a saved dollar hard limit, the initial limit is the price for one subscription period. A new weekly self-serve subscription without a saved dollar hard limit uses a fallback of three times its weekly subscription price. You may edit dollar hard and soft limits through your account dashboard; a hard limit pauses API access when reached, while a soft limit triggers a notification. The effective policy shown in your account dashboard controls. Enterprise and custom agreements may specify different terms. When bill mode applies, overage is metered in real time and may be billed in small increments as it accrues; any remaining overage balance below the current increment threshold may be charged at the end of the billing cycle. By using bill mode, you authorize those charges to your payment method on file. It is your responsibility to configure and monitor spend controls.

No Refunds. ALL FEES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. This includes, without limitation, subscription fees, overage charges, and any fees charged during a billing cycle in which you cancel. Downgrading or canceling your plan does not entitle you to a refund or credit of any previously paid fees. Overage charges are non-refundable once the underlying data points have been consumed. Unused data points do not roll over to subsequent billing periods unless your plan expressly provides otherwise.

Payment Failure & Collections. If your payment method fails, is declined, or your account becomes past due, we may: (a) immediately suspend or restrict your access to paid features; (b) retry the charge using any payment method on file; (c) apply late fees of 1.5% per month (or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is less) on outstanding balances; and (d) refer the outstanding balance to a third-party collections agency. You agree to pay all costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys' fees. Accounts with balances outstanding for more than 30 days may be permanently terminated.

Outstanding Overage Balances. If an overage charge fails or remains unpaid, we may suspend API access until the balance is settled. Upgrading your plan does not forgive or reduce any previously accrued overage balance—the outstanding amount remains due in full regardless of plan changes. Overage balances unpaid for more than 90 days may be referred to collections as described above.

Taxes. All fees are exclusive of taxes. You are solely responsible for all applicable taxes, duties, levies, and governmental charges (excluding taxes based on TheRundown's net income) associated with your use of the Service. If we are required by law to collect or remit taxes on your behalf, such amounts will be added to your invoice and are immediately payable.

Chargebacks & Disputes. If you initiate a chargeback, payment reversal, or dispute with your payment provider or financial institution, we reserve the right to immediately and without notice suspend your account and all associated API keys pending resolution. Initiating a chargeback without first attempting to resolve the dispute directly with us at [email protected] constitutes a material breach of these Terms. We reserve the right to dispute any chargeback and to recover any fees, penalties, or costs incurred as a result of fraudulent or unwarranted chargebacks.

5. API Terms & Acceptable Use Policy

API Access & Keys. Access to the API is granted solely as part of and subject to the terms of your subscription plan. API keys are unique to your account, are confidential credentials, and must not be shared, published, embedded in publicly accessible client-side code, committed to public repositories, or otherwise disclosed to any third party. You are solely and exclusively responsible for any and all activity conducted using your API keys, including any unauthorized access resulting from compromised, stolen, or misused credentials. TheRundown shall have no liability for unauthorized use of your API keys.

Rate Limits & Fair Use. We enforce rate limits, concurrency limits, and usage quotas per your subscription tier to ensure service quality and availability for all users. You agree not to circumvent, bypass, defeat, or attempt to exceed rate limits or usage quotas through any means, including but not limited to: rotating API keys; using multiple accounts; employing proxy servers, VPNs, or distributed architectures to mask request origins; batching or bundling requests in a manner designed to evade detection; or any other technique intended to obtain more access than your plan permits.

Prohibited Uses. You agree not to, and shall not permit any third party to:

• Use the Service for any unlawful, fraudulent, or deceptive purpose or in violation of any applicable law, regulation, or industry standard;
• Scrape, crawl, spider, or use automated means to access or extract data from the Service beyond the authorized API access provided by your plan;
• Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code, algorithms, data models, or underlying architecture of the Service or any component thereof;
• Interfere with, disrupt, degrade, impair, or place an unreasonable or disproportionate burden on the Service, its servers, networks, or infrastructure;
• Use the Service to develop, market, or operate a product or service that is competitive with or substantially similar to the Service;
• Impersonate any person or entity, or falsely state or misrepresent your identity, affiliation, or authority;
• Access or attempt to access another user's account, API keys, or data without express authorization;
• Use the Data to directly facilitate, promote, operate, or enable illegal gambling, unlicensed wagering, or any other activity that is prohibited in the applicable jurisdiction;
• Introduce malicious code, viruses, worms, Trojan horses, or other harmful material into the Service;
• Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service or circumvent any security or authentication measures without our prior written authorization;
• Use the Service to send unsolicited communications (spam), harvest email addresses, or conduct any form of phishing.

Remedies for Violations. We may, in our sole discretion and without prior notice, take any action we deem appropriate in response to a violation of this Section 5, including but not limited to: revoking API keys; throttling, suspending, or permanently terminating your account; pursuing injunctive relief; and seeking monetary damages. You agree that violations of this Section 5 may cause irreparable harm to TheRundown for which monetary damages would be inadequate, and that TheRundown shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunction and specific performance, without the requirement of posting a bond.

TheRundown's Property. The Service, including but not limited to its design, layout, look and feel, graphics, user interfaces, software, algorithms, data models, compilations, documentation, API specifications, and all content created or provided by TheRundown (collectively, “TheRundown Materials”) are the exclusive property of TheRundown or its licensors and are protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property and proprietary rights laws.

10. Termination & Suspension

Termination by You. You may cancel your subscription and terminate your account at any time through your account dashboard or by contacting [email protected]. Cancellation will take effect at the end of the current billing cycle. Termination does not entitle you to a refund or credit of any kind for prepaid fees, partial-period fees, or unused data points.

Termination or Suspension by Us. We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your account and access to the Service at any time, with or without cause, and with or without prior notice, in our sole discretion.

11. Dispute Resolution; Mandatory Binding Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

Informal Resolution. Before initiating any formal dispute resolution proceeding, you agree to first send a written notice of your claim to [email protected] describing the nature and basis of your claim and the specific relief sought. The parties shall attempt to resolve the dispute informally through good-faith negotiation for at least sixty (60) days from the date of the notice. During this period, any applicable statute of limitations or filing deadline shall be tolled.

Mandatory Binding Arbitration. If the dispute cannot be resolved informally within the 60-day period, YOU AND THERUNDOWN AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS, OR CONTROVERSIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS, THE SERVICE, THE DATA, OR YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THERUNDOWN (INCLUDING THE VALIDITY, ENFORCEABILITY, OR SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION) SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator mutually agreed upon by the parties, or if the parties cannot agree, appointed by the AAA. The arbitration shall take place in Austin, Travis County, Texas, unless the parties mutually agree to a different location or to virtual proceedings.

The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes, including the arbitrability of any claim. The arbitrator's decision shall be final, binding, and enforceable, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall apply Texas substantive law consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1–16) and applicable statutes of limitations. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only on an individual basis and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant's individual claim.

CLASS ACTION WAIVER. YOU AND THERUNDOWN EACH AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDINGS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WILL BE CONDUCTED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL NOT HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS, TO PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, OR TO AWARD RELIEF TO ANYONE OTHER THAN THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF. IF THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION SHALL BE NULL AND VOID (BUT THE REMAINING TERMS SHALL REMAIN IN EFFECT).

JURY TRIAL WAIVER. TO THE EXTENT ANY CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN ARBITRATION, YOU AND THERUNDOWN EACH IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE.

Time Limitation. Any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service must be commenced within one (1) year after the claim accrues. Failure to bring a claim within this period shall permanently bar such claim.

Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek temporary or preliminary injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property rights or to prevent irreparable harm pending arbitration. Claims within the jurisdiction of a small claims court may be brought in such court.

12. Governing Law; Venue

These Terms and any disputes arising out of or related hereto shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law rules or principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act shall not apply to these Terms. To the extent that any lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted hereunder (including the exceptions in Section 11), you and TheRundown irrevocably consent and submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Travis County, Texas, and waive any objection based on inconvenient forum or lack of jurisdiction.

13. Service Level; Availability

TheRundown does not guarantee any specific level of service availability, uptime, or performance. The Service may be subject to interruptions, outages, delays, and errors, including scheduled and unscheduled maintenance. We will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of planned maintenance but are not obligated to do so.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT: (A) THE SERVICE IS NOT DESIGNED OR INTENDED FOR USE IN APPLICATIONS REQUIRING FAIL-SAFE PERFORMANCE OR WHERE THE FAILURE OF THE SERVICE COULD LEAD TO DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY, OR SEVERE PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE; (B) THERUNDOWN SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR SERVICE INTERRUPTIONS, DATA LOSS, OR ERRORS REGARDLESS OF CAUSE; AND (C) IT IS YOUR SOLE RESPONSIBILITY TO IMPLEMENT APPROPRIATE BACKUP, REDUNDANCY, AND ERROR-HANDLING MEASURES IN YOUR APPLICATIONS.

14. General Provisions

Modifications to Terms. We reserve the right to modify, amend, or replace these Terms at any time in our sole discretion. If we make material changes, we will provide notice by one or more of the following: (a) posting the updated Terms on this page with a revised “Last Updated” date; (b) sending an email to the address associated with your account; or (c) displaying a notice within the Service. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of any modification constitutes your binding acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the modified Terms, your sole remedy is to stop using the Service and cancel your account before the changes take effect.

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while preserving the original intent, or if modification is not possible, shall be severed. All remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

No Waiver. The failure or delay of TheRundown to exercise or enforce any right, remedy, or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right, remedy, or provision. A waiver of any right on one occasion shall not be construed as a waiver of any right on any subsequent occasion.

Assignment. You may not assign, delegate, or transfer these Terms or any of your rights or obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, without our prior written consent, and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void. TheRundown may freely assign or transfer these Terms or any rights hereunder without restriction, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all assets.

Force Majeure. TheRundown shall not be liable for any failure, delay, or interruption in performance resulting from causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, epidemics, pandemics, war, armed conflict, terrorism, riots, civil disturbances, sabotage, labor disputes, governmental actions or orders, sanctions, embargoes, fire, flood, earthquake, power failures, internet or telecommunications failures, cyberattacks, denial of service attacks, third-party service provider failures, or supply chain disruptions.
