These Terms govern your use of the yallaGoal mobile app, website and admin portal (together, the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to them. If you do not agree, please stop using the Service.
1. What yallaGoal is
yallaGoal helps you find and book football pitches, organise recurring games with your group, split teams, record match statistics, and run leagues and tournaments.
Venues listed in the Service are operated by independent businesses. yallaGoal is not the operator, owner or agent of any pitch, and is not a party to the agreement between you and a venue.
2. Eligibility and your account
You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. You sign in with your mobile number and a one-time code; keep your number and device secure, because anyone with access to them can use your account.
You agree to provide accurate information and to keep it up to date. You are responsible for activity that takes place under your account.
3. Bookings
A booking made through the Service is a request to reserve a pitch at the selected time. The venue may confirm, modify or decline it.
Confirmation, cancellation windows, no-show rules, pricing and refunds are set by each venue, not by yallaGoal. Review the venue's own terms before booking. Any dispute about a booking is between you and the venue.
4. Match fees and payment
yallaGoal does not process, hold or transfer money. Where a group turns on match fees, the app functions solely as a ledger: it records the amount an organiser has set, who owes it, and what the organiser has marked as paid.
All money moves directly between you and your organiser or the venue, outside the app. yallaGoal is not a payment service, is not responsible for collection, and is not a party to any dispute about money.
5. Content you post
You retain ownership of the photos, names, reviews and match data you post. You grant yallaGoal a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store and display that content within the Service so the relevant feature can work — for example showing your avatar to your group, or your review on a venue page.
You must not post content you do not have the right to post. We may remove content that breaches these Terms.
6. Acceptable use
Treat venues, staff and other players with respect. You must not:
- Post abusive, hateful, harassing, misleading or unlawful content;
- Impersonate another person, or misrepresent your association with anyone;
- Post a review that does not reflect a genuine experience;
- Scrape, probe or overload the Service, or attempt to access data that is not yours;
- Use the Service for any unlawful purpose.
We may suspend or remove accounts that break these rules.
7. Reporting content and blocking users
Every venue review and every match photo or video carries a report control. Reporting asks you to choose a reason and lets you add a note; in the same step you may also block the person who posted it.
We review reports and act on them within 24 hours. Depending on what we find we may leave the content in place, remove it, or suspend or terminate the account responsible. Reviews and match media are checked before they appear publicly, but that check is not a guarantee.
Blocking is personal to you: the blocked person's reviews and match media stop appearing to you, they are not notified, and you can reverse it at any time under Profile → Blocked people.
Filing reports you know to be false, or using the report tool to harass someone, is itself a breach of these Terms.
8. Venue listings and availability
Venue details, opening hours, pitch specifications, availability and prices are supplied by the venues themselves. They may be incomplete, inaccurate or out of date. We do not warrant their accuracy, and you should confirm anything that matters directly with the venue.
9. Groups, leagues and tournaments
Groups, leagues and tournaments are created and administered by their organisers, not by yallaGoal. Organisers decide who may join, how teams are split, how fixtures and results are recorded, and how any fees are handled.
Organisers can see and manage the participation data of members within their group or competition. We provide the tools; the organiser is responsible for how they are used.
10. Availability of the Service
We aim to keep the Service running, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. Features may be changed, suspended or withdrawn, and the Service is provided "as is" and "as available" to the extent permitted by law.
11. Assumption of risk and liability
Football carries a risk of injury. You take part in games at your own risk and are responsible for your own fitness, health and insurance. yallaGoal does not supervise, referee or inspect any game, pitch or facility.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, yallaGoal is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential loss; for the acts or omissions of venues, organisers or other users; for personal injury arising from participation in a game; or for any dispute concerning a booking or a match fee. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
12. Ending your account
You can delete your account at any time from Profile → Delete account. Deletion is permanent. We may suspend or terminate access where these Terms are breached, or where required by law.
13. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms as the Service develops. The date above shows the current version, and significant changes will be announced in the app. Continuing to use the Service after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
14. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Israel, and the competent courts of Tel Aviv-Jaffa shall have exclusive jurisdiction, without prejudice to any mandatory consumer protection rights available to you locally.
