III. Eligibility

IV. Payment Terms

When confirming a payment or transaction with GOLFSTATS, you agree and hold full responsibility to paying the full amount for that transaction. A part of the payment or transaction may include taxes, shipping costs, or other similar fees.

When conducting a payment through GOLFSTATS, you confirm that you are legally authorized/permitted to use that payment source. If you pay using a debit card and there is an overdraft fee or any other related fee, we are not responsible for that fee.

You agree to authorize GOLFSTATS, using third parties directly or indirectly, to make any inquiries that GOLFSTATS considers necessary at GOLFSTATS’s discretion pertaining to your identity and creditworthiness. GOLFSTATS may terminate your transaction if GOLFSTATS believes that the transaction violates the terms of this Agreement or GOLFSTATS believes that the transaction may result in financial loss. GOLFSTATS may place a delay on a payment for a period of time, limit payment sources for a transaction, limit your ability to make a payment or deactivate your account if GOLFSTATS believes doing so may prevent financial loss. GOLFSTATS may contact your payment source issuer, law enforcement, or impacted third parties and share details of any transactions you have participated in if GOLFSTATS believes doing so may prevent financial loss or a violation of law.

If you believe that an unauthorized, illegal, or otherwise problematic transaction has occurred under your account, you agree to notify GOLFSTATS immediately. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you waive all claims against GOLFSTATS related to payments unless you submit the claim to GOLFSTATS within 30 days after the charge. You are responsible for and agree to reimburse GOLFSTATS for all fees, fines, penalties, costs and other liabilities incurred by GOLFSTATS that were caused or arose out of payments that you authorized. If you enter into a transaction with a third party and have a dispute over the goods or services you purchased GOLFSTATS has no liability for such goods or services. GOLFSTATS has no obligation to intervene in disputes between users, or users and third parties.

XVIII. Tracking

In order to improve the services and products of GOLFSTATS’s and GOLFSTATS’s website, GOLFSTATS may utilize “cookies,” “web beacons,” and/or similar devices to track your activities.

A similar method may be used by which a service and/or product may send data to a server or other remote computing device when a set of user-initiated events occur.

GOLFSTATS may use cookies and similar devices to track your use of the website and the products and services, and web servers may automatically log the IP/Internet address of your computer.  GOLFSTATS does not generally use this information to identify you personally.  If you expressly provide consent for the website or the products and/or services to record the unique identifier that you select when you register for various activities on the website or the products and/or services, that unique identifier will be stored on a persistent cookie on your computer and that unique identifier will be linked to your personal information. As a result, your navigation path around the website and the products and/or services may be tracked in identifiable form.
