Terms of Use

Version 1.0 · Effective November 1, 2026

These terms are an agreement between you and Michael Butler, who makes Matchday ("we", "us"). By setting up Matchday or using it, you agree to them. If you don't agree, don't use Matchday.

1. What Matchday is

Matchday is a free sports calendar for iPhone. It puts the teams, players, leagues and tours you follow on one schedule, shows scores and standings, and sends alerts about the games you choose. It's in a private beta, shared through Apple's TestFlight.

2. Not affiliated with any league or team

Matchday is an independent app. It isn't made, sponsored or endorsed by any league, team, tour, player, broadcaster or data provider. Team, league and player names, logos and other marks belong to their owners and are shown only to identify them.

3. Scores, schedules and alerts

Matchday reads public sports feeds, such as ESPN, the NHL, MLB and the PSA squash tour. We don't control these feeds and don't guarantee their accuracy, completeness or timeliness.

Scores and start times can be late, wrong or missing, and games can be moved without the app knowing.
Alerts can arrive late, more than once, or not at all, for example when your iPhone is in Low Power Mode or iOS limits background activity.
Don't rely on Matchday for anything time-sensitive, such as travel or tickets. Check the league or the broadcaster.

4. Odds and win estimates are information, not betting advice

Some game pages show a "favoured to win" percentage and a betting line. Both come from ESPN and are shown for information only. They are estimates, not predictions you should act on. Matchday doesn't take, place or help with bets, and nothing in it is a recommendation to gamble. If you choose to bet, you're responsible for following the law where you live.

5. Your profile

Your profile is what you've set up in Matchday: what you follow, your alert settings and your alerts log. It's kept on your iPhone and, if you use iCloud, in your own iCloud. There's no Matchday account or password.
You can see what Matchday keeps, export it, or delete it at any time under Profile › Your data.
If you're under the age of majority where you live, use Matchday only with a parent's or guardian's permission.

6. Acceptable use

Don't:

copy, resell or republish Matchday or the data it shows
use Matchday in a way that overloads or interferes with the feeds it reads, for example with automated tools
take Matchday apart to get around how it works, except where the law allows it
use Matchday for anything unlawful

7. Feedback

If you send feedback, ideas or bug reports, we may use them to improve Matchday without owing you anything. Please don't include other people's personal information.

8. Our content

Matchday's design, code, name and icon belong to Michael Butler. You may use the app for your own personal, non-commercial use.

9. No warranty

Matchday is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent the law allows. We don't promise that it will be accurate, complete, uninterrupted or free of errors.

10. Limits on our liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we aren't liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of Matchday or reliance on what it shows, including missed games, betting losses, lost data, and indirect or consequential losses. Where liability can't be excluded, our total liability is limited to CA$100. Some places don't allow these limits, so they may not all apply to you.

11. Ending use

You can stop using Matchday at any time: delete your profile under Profile › Your data, delete the app, and leave the beta in the TestFlight app. We may end the beta, or stop updating Matchday, at any time. Sections 4 and 7 to 12 continue after your use ends.

12. General

Changes: we may update these terms. When a change matters, Matchday shows you the new version and asks you to accept it before you carry on.
Law: these terms are governed by the laws of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. Disputes go to the courts of Ontario.
Whole agreement: these terms, the Privacy Policy, the Private Beta Notice and the note on scores, odds and estimates are the whole agreement between us about Matchday. If any part can't be enforced, the rest still applies.
Apple: these terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple isn't responsible for Matchday or its content.
