TOMO DOG SPORTS TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE
Last revised: September 22, 2026
Version: 1.0
These Terms and Conditions of Service ("Terms and Conditions") govern your access to and use of TOMO Dog Sports (the "Service"), operated by Blue Ordway LLC ("TOMO Dog Sports," "we," "us," or "our"). By creating an account, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree, do not create an account or use the Service.
1. DESCRIPTION OF WEBSITE AND SERVICE
TOMO Dog Sports is a technology platform that helps competitors register for dog sports trials (e.g. AKC, ASCA, and UKI agility events) and helps event organizers manage those events β registrations, run schedules, live queues, scoring, and results. TOMO Dog Sports is not a dog sports organization, does not sanction or officiate events, and is not a party to the relationship between a competitor and an event organizer. Each event is hosted and run by its own independent organizer/club, who is solely responsible for the conduct, safety, judging, and rules of that event.
2. ELIGIBILITY AND ACCOUNTS
You must be at least 18 years old to create an account. If you are entering a junior handler (under 18) in an event, you must do so as the junior handler's parent or legal guardian, and you are responsible for that junior handler's information and participation.
You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of your account information (name, contact details, dog information, membership IDs) and for safeguarding your account credentials. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
3. EVENT REGISTRATION AND ENTRIES
When you register a dog for an event through TOMO Dog Sports, you are entering into an agreement with the event organizer, subject to that organizer's own rules, entry requirements, and any event-specific legal agreement or liability waiver presented to you at the time of entry. TOMO Dog Sports facilitates that registration but does not control an organizer's entry requirements, run assignments, scoring decisions, or event-day operations.
Some registrations may be entered on your behalf by an event secretary (for example, at ringside or over the phone). Where that happens, you may be able to "claim" that registration later by linking it to your TOMO Dog Sports account using the same email address the registration was created with.
4. EVENT PUBLISHING AND SANCTIONING VERIFICATION
Where an event's governing organization (e.g. AKC, ASCA, or UKI) requires that an event be sanctioned, approved, or otherwise officially listed before it can take place, the event organizer must, prior to publishing the event on TOMO Dog Sports, provide a link to that event's official listing on the governing organization's own website.
Publishing an event makes it immediately visible to and open for registration by competitors β either upon publishing or once the event's sign-up period opens, whichever applies β before TOMO Dog Sports has independently confirmed the event's sanctioning or approval status. TOMO Dog Sports will review the listing provided by the organizer to confirm that status and to cross-reference the club name and event secretary against the information on file for the event.
If TOMO Dog Sports is unable to confirm that the event is sanctioned, approved, or official, TOMO Dog Sports may temporarily unpublish the event and contact the organizer directly to resolve the discrepancy. TOMO Dog Sports aims to complete this review, and to reach out if there is an issue, within 24 hours of the event being published; if the organizer does not hear from TOMO Dog Sports within that window, no further action is needed on their part.
If TOMO Dog Sports determines that an event is not in fact sanctioned, approved, or official, and that the organizer knowingly provided an inaccurate or fraudulent listing in order to circumvent this requirement, the organizer will not be entitled to a refund of any publishing or platform fees paid for that event (see Section 5), and TOMO Dog Sports may suspend the organizer's account and/or the associated club's registration on TOMO Dog Sports (see Section 8).
5. PAYMENTS, FEES, AND REFUNDS
Entry fees and other charges are processed either electronically through our third-party payment processor, Stripe, or, where an organizer accepts it, by cash or other manual payment methods recorded by the event secretary. TOMO Dog Sports does not store your full payment card details β those are handled directly by Stripe in accordance with its own terms and privacy practices.
Refunds, entry changes, and cancellations are determined by the event organizer's own policies, not by TOMO Dog Sports. Where an organizer issues a refund, TOMO Dog Sports will reflect that refund in your registration record and, for electronic payments, may facilitate the refund transaction through Stripe. TOMO Dog Sports is not a party to, and bears no responsibility for, payment disputes between a competitor and an event-hosting organizer, and does not guarantee that any particular refund will be issued.
Event organizers may also be charged a separate platform fee by TOMO Dog Sports for creating and publishing events; those fees are billed to the organizer, not the competitor, and are not covered by this section. Fees paid to publish an event that is later found to be based on an inaccurate or fraudulent sanctioning listing are non-refundable, as described in Section 4.
6. LIABILITY DISCLAIMER
Participation in any dog sports event listed on TOMO Dog Sports β including travel to, attendance at, and competition in that event β is solely at your own risk and the risk of your dog. TOMO Dog Sports shall not be held liable for any injuries, accidents, illness, property damage, or other loss or damage sustained by any person or animal in connection with an event, whether occurring before, during, or after the event, or at any facility where an event is hosted.
TOMO Dog Sports' role is limited to providing a technology platform for registration, scheduling, and event management. We do not organize, sanction, supervise, or otherwise control any event, and we make no representations about the safety, accuracy, or conduct of any event or event organizer.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, AND TOMO DOG SPORTS' TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF FEES YOU PAID TO TOMO DOG SPORTS (NOT INCLUDING AMOUNTS PAID TO EVENT ORGANIZERS) IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
7. USER CONDUCT
You agree not to: provide false information about yourself, your dog, or your eligibility for an event; use the Service to harass, threaten, or abuse another user, competitor, organizer, or secretary; attempt to interfere with the security or proper functioning of the Service; or use the Service for any purpose other than legitimate dog sports registration and event management.
8. TERMINATION
We may suspend or terminate your account if you violate these Terms and Conditions, provide fraudulent information, or misuse the Service β including, as described in Section 4, providing an inaccurate or fraudulent event sanctioning listing to circumvent our publishing verification process. You may stop using the Service and request deletion of your account at any time, subject to our Privacy Policy and any recordkeeping obligations tied to completed event registrations and payments.
9. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS
We may update these Terms and Conditions from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date and version number above, and, where required by law, ask you to re-accept the updated Terms and Conditions before continuing to use the Service. Your continued use of the Service after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms and Conditions.
10. GOVERNING LAW
These Terms are governed by the laws of [State/Jurisdiction], without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles.
