Welcome to Tifo. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Tifo website, mobile application, and related services (collectively, the "Platform"). Tifo is operated by Théo Neubeck ("we," "our," or "us").
By creating an account or otherwise using the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Platform.
1. How the Platform Works
- A game of skill: Tifo is a free-to-play, skill-based prediction game. Your mission is to predict the outcomes of football matches and related events ("Events") made available on the Platform.
- Points: Correct predictions earn you in-game points. Points measure your prediction skill and performance within the game.
- Leaderboards: Your accumulated points are used to determine your rank on public leaderboards (e.g. monthly, seasonal, per-competition). The goal is to compete for reputation, prestige, and bragging rights within the community.
- No monetary value: Points are a virtual in-game scoring system and have no monetary value. They cannot be sold, transferred, redeemed, or exchanged for cash, cryptocurrency, or any real-world prize. The Platform is provided for entertainment purposes only.
- Private leagues: You may create and join private, invite-only leagues to compete directly with friends. These Terms apply equally to public and private competitions.
- Free to play: Use of the Platform is free of charge. No payment is required to create an account, submit predictions, or earn points. The Platform contains no advertising and no in-app purchases.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction) to use the Platform. By using the Platform, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement and that you are not prohibited from using the Platform under any applicable law.
3. User Accounts
- Account creation: You must register for an account to participate in the game and appear on leaderboards. You may register using an email address and password, or through Google or Apple sign-in.
- Account responsibility: You are solely responsible for all activities under your account and for keeping your credentials confidential.
- Account conduct: You agree not to:
- Create more than one account for yourself.
- Impersonate any person or entity.
- Sell, transfer, or allow any other person to access your account.

4. Prohibited Conduct

- Engaging in any behaviour that is abusive, harassing, or unsportsmanlike toward other users.
- Consequences: Violation of these rules may result in suspension or termination of your account, forfeiture of accumulated points, and a permanent ban from the Platform, at our sole discretion.
5. Predictions and Results
- Deadlines: Predictions for an Event are locked and cannot be changed after the specified deadline.
- Event resolution: Events are settled based on official real-life outcomes provided by our data providers (including API-Football). We strive for accuracy, but our decision on the settlement of any Event is final and binding.
- Points awarding: Points are credited to your account after an Event has been settled and your prediction is confirmed as correct. The reward for an Event may decrease over time before its deadline.
