PokerOps Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and PokerOps ("PokerOps," "we," "our," or "us") governing access to and use of the PokerOps software platform, websites, APIs, and related services (collectively, the "Service"). The Service is designed for organizations that manage poker tournaments, league events, and related operational workflows.

If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of a company, club, or other legal entity (an "Organization"), you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that Organization and its users to these Terms. In that case, "you" and "your" refer to that Organization.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.
