General terms and conditions

Last updated: September 2026

1. Provider and scope

The provider of the La Liguilla platform — including the website, the web application, the mobile applications for iOS and Android, the “La Liguilla” app, the “Match Center” and related services — is:

La Liguilla KG
Flotowgasse 26/3/4, 1190 Vienna, Austria
E-mail: info@laliguilla.com · Support: support@laliguilla.com
hereinafter “La Liguilla”.

These terms apply to all contracts for the use of the digital services provided by La Liguilla. La Liguilla is aimed in particular at league operators and administrators, organisers of tournaments and competitions, sports federations and associations, clubs and teams, players, coaches and referees, as well as fans and other users of the platform.

Where individual services are provided under a separate offer, a white-label agreement, a licence agreement or an individual arrangement, the provisions of that arrangement take precedence over these terms.

Mandatory statutory consumer protection provisions apply to consumers without restriction. Any provision of these terms that cannot validly be agreed under mandatory consumer law does not apply to consumers.

2. What the service covers

La Liguilla provides a digital platform for organising, managing, publishing and following sports competitions, particularly in amateur and semi-professional football. Depending on the plan or the scope provided, the following features may be offered:

• creating and managing competitions and seasons;
• managing clubs, teams, players, coaches, referees and venues;
• producing fixtures and schedules, including with the help of artificial intelligence;
• importing players, teams and other data from files, images or spreadsheets;
• processing match sheets by automated or AI-assisted systems;
• managing matchdays and matches;
• recording goals, assists, cards, substitutions and other match events;
• calculating standings, rankings and statistics;
• publishing results and match events in real time;
• push notifications and feed, news and publishing features;
• public display of player, team and competition statistics;
• mobile applications for players and fans;
• Match Center features for recording results at the ground;
• custom-branded white-label applications.

The specific scope depends on the plan chosen, the relevant offer or the individual arrangement. La Liguilla may further develop, replace or change individual features, provided this does not materially impair the main contractual service.

Some leagues and federations offer their participants an app with their own name and branding. These apps are developed, published in the app stores and operated by La Liguilla KG on the La Liguilla platform, and their use is governed by these terms. The name, logo and competition content belong to the respective league or federation.

The user account is a La Liguilla account that is valid in all apps on the platform: anyone who registers in a customised app can sign in to the others with the same details. Each app shows the competitions of its league or federation; the user's own profile and player record are available in all of them.

3. Registration and user account

Some features require a user account. Users undertake to provide complete and truthful information when registering and to keep it up to date. Access credentials are confidential and must not be passed to unauthorised third parties. Users must inform La Liguilla without delay if they become aware of unauthorised use of their account.

An account may in principle only be used by the person for whom it was created. Where La Liguilla provides organisation accounts, administrators, team administrators or other roles, access rights may be assigned accordingly within the platform. La Liguilla may put verification measures in place for accounts or administrator rights where this is necessary for the security of the platform or the protection of other users.

4. Formation of the contract

A contract for paid services is formed when the user selects a plan, provides the required information, accepts the applicable terms and places the paid order bindingly using the button provided.

Before the order is placed, the user is shown the price, the billing period, the essential features of the service and, where applicable, the term. Input errors can be corrected before the order is completed.

For contracts concluded through an app store, the contractual and payment terms of that app store operator may apply in addition.

La Liguilla may offer trial periods or free plans. Where a free trial converts automatically into a paid subscription, the user is clearly informed of this before the contract is concluded.

5. Prices and payment

The prices that apply are those displayed on the website, within the application or in an individual offer at the time the contract is concluded. Unless expressly stated otherwise, prices quoted to consumers include the applicable statutory value added tax.

Subscriptions may be billed monthly, annually or over another expressly agreed period, depending on the offer chosen. Payments may be processed through the payment providers used by La Liguilla or through app stores.

La Liguilla only receives the payment information required to identify and process the payment. Full card details are processed directly by the payment provider and are not stored by La Liguilla.

In the event of late payment, La Liguilla may — after a reminder and a reasonable additional period — temporarily restrict access to paid features, to the extent permitted by law.

6. Term and cancellation of subscriptions

The term follows from the plan chosen when the contract is concluded. With a monthly subscription, the user may cancel up to the end of the current billing period; use continues until the period already paid for expires. For contracts with a fixed minimum term, the conditions communicated at the time of conclusion apply. Where a contract renews automatically, this is stated clearly and comprehensibly before conclusion.

Cancellation can be made using the function provided in the user account or through the relevant sales channel. If the subscription was taken out through an app store, cancellation may need to be made through that app store.

Simply deleting the app from your device does not end an existing paid subscription. Deleting a user account and cancelling a paid subscription are legally separate acts. Before an account is deleted, La Liguilla will point out any subscription still in force.

7. Changes to prices and services

La Liguilla may change prices for future billing periods where there is an objective reason, in particular increased operating or infrastructure costs, changes in taxes or levies, substantial extensions of the scope of the service, or changes in the costs of external providers.

For ongoing contracts, price changes are communicated in good time before they take effect. A price change does not apply retroactively to billing periods already paid for. Where a change materially worsens a consumer's contractual position, their statutory rights of cancellation, withdrawal and other consumer rights remain unaffected.

8. Right of withdrawal for consumers

For contracts concluded at a distance, consumers generally have the right to withdraw within 14 days without giving reasons. For service contracts the period generally begins on the day the contract is concluded. Withdrawal may be exercised by an unambiguous statement to La Liguilla, in particular by e-mail to support@laliguilla.com.

If a consumer expressly requests that La Liguilla begin performing a service during the withdrawal period, the statutory provisions on proportionate payment for services already performed apply.

Where the subject of the contract is the supply of digital content not delivered on a tangible medium, the statutory right of withdrawal may lapse early under the statutory conditions, in particular where the consumer has expressly consented to performance beginning before the period expires and has confirmed awareness that this may cause the right to be lost. Mandatory consumer rights remain unaffected.

9. Use by minors

Features that can be used without concluding a contract may also be accessible to younger users, depending on the app store and the service. Minors may only conclude paid contracts within their legal capacity or with the necessary consent of their legal representatives.

Competition administrators are responsible for holding the necessary legal basis when entering personal data of players who are minors.

10. User content

Depending on the features available, users and administrators may provide their own content: texts, news, images, videos, logos, player information, team data, results, statistics, match events and other competition information.

The user in principle remains the owner of the rights in their own content. They grant La Liguilla, for the duration and for the purpose of providing the service, a non-exclusive right, limited to what is necessary, to store, process, display, reproduce and publish that content within the features the user has chosen.

The user warrants that they hold the necessary rights and permissions. In particular, images, names or other personal data of third parties may only be uploaded or published where there is a legal basis for doing so.

11. Prohibited content and conduct

The following are prohibited in particular: unlawful content; racist or discriminatory content; glorification of violence; pornographic or other unlawful sexual content; insulting, defamatory or threatening content; content that infringes the rights of third parties; infringements of copyright or trade marks; identity misuse; manipulation of results or statistics; automated abuse of the platform; spam; unauthorised access or attempted access; distribution of malware; attacks on the technical infrastructure; and circumvention of technical protection measures.

12. Moderation and blocking of content or accounts

La Liguilla may remove content, block it or limit its visibility where there are concrete indications that it is unlawful, breaches these terms, endangers the rights of third parties or impairs the security or functioning of the platform. In the case of serious or repeated breaches, La Liguilla may suspend accounts temporarily or permanently.

Where legally required and possible, the affected user is informed of the measure and its essential reasons. Users can report allegedly unlawful content or abusive conduct to support@laliguilla.com.

To the extent that the provisions of the Digital Services Act apply to a specific feature of La Liguilla, the obligations it lays down for intermediary and hosting services are observed accordingly.

13. Artificial intelligence features

La Liguilla may offer features that use artificial intelligence or automated systems, in particular to generate tournament structures and fixtures, process text descriptions, recognise data in images or documents, import and structure player and team data, process match sheets and assist with administrative tasks.

Results generated by artificial intelligence may contain errors. The user or administrator is required to check automatically generated data before it is bindingly saved, published or used to run a competition. La Liguilla gives no warranty that AI-generated suggestions are complete, error-free or fit for the intended purpose in any individual case. The use of personal data in these features is governed by the privacy policy.

14. Results and sporting data

La Liguilla provides the technical tools for entering, processing and publishing sporting data. Responsibility for the accuracy of data entered by administrators, referees, team officials or other authorised users lies in principle with the organisation entering it. This includes in particular player assignments, line-ups, goals, cards, assists, substitutions, results, standings, suspensions and fixture dates.

La Liguilla may carry out automated calculations based on that data. Incorrect input data can therefore lead to incorrect statistics or standings.

15. Availability

La Liguilla aims for high availability of the platform. Permanent and entirely fault-free availability cannot be guaranteed technically. Temporary restrictions may arise in particular from maintenance work, security updates, technical faults, failures of hosting or telecommunications providers, force majeure, or disruptions at third parties. Significant planned maintenance will where possible be carried out so as to keep disruption to a minimum.

16. White-label applications

La Liguilla may provide custom-branded applications for leagues, federations, clubs or organisers. Scope, price, branding, app store publication, maintenance and other services are governed by the relevant offer or white-label agreement.

The customer is responsible for being entitled to use the names, logos, trade marks, images and other content it supplies. Where necessary, La Liguilla may require technical or design changes in order to comply with the requirements of Apple, Google or other platform operators. Decisions by app store operators on review, publication or removal of an application lie outside La Liguilla's direct sphere of influence.

17. Rights in La Liguilla

All rights in the platform, the software, the user interface, the database structure, the design, the brand and other content of La Liguilla remain with La Liguilla or the respective rights holders.

Without express consent it is not permitted, in particular, to copy or reproduce the software, circumvent technical protection measures, extract or reverse-engineer source code except where this is mandatorily permitted by law, systematically extract content from La Liguilla, or use trade marks or designs commercially without authorisation.

18. Warranty

Mandatory statutory warranty provisions apply to consumers, in particular those applicable to digital services. Legally required updates, in particular security updates, are provided to the extent required by law. Businesses must notify apparent defects within a reasonable period.

A warranty for defects caused exclusively by incorrect data supplied by the user, incompatible third-party software or improper use exists only to the extent required by law.

19. Liability

La Liguilla is liable without limitation for damage caused intentionally or by gross negligence, and to the mandatory statutory extent for personal injury. In the case of slight negligence, La Liguilla is liable only for breach of essential contractual obligations and only to the extent permitted by law. All mandatory statutory liability provisions apply to consumers.

In particular, La Liguilla is not liable for the accuracy of data entered by users, league administrators, teams, referees or other third parties, unless La Liguilla is itself responsible for the error. Mandatory statutory claims, in particular under product liability law, remain unaffected.

20. Data backup and data export

La Liguilla takes appropriate technical measures to protect stored data. Users and organisations are nevertheless encouraged to make their own additional backups of information that is particularly important commercially or sportingly.

Where provided for by law, after the contract ends users may request the release of non-personal content they have supplied or generated, in a common machine-readable format. Rights concerning personal data are governed by the privacy policy and the GDPR.

21. Data protection and processing on behalf of a controller

Personal data is processed in accordance with La Liguilla's current privacy policy, which is available on the website and within the applications.

Processing on behalf of a controller. Where an organisation — in particular a league, federation or club — processes third parties' personal data through the platform, for example that of players, coaches or referees, that organisation is the controller within the meaning of Article 4(7) GDPR and La Liguilla is the processor within the meaning of Article 4(8) GDPR. La Liguilla processes that data solely on the organisation's instructions.

That relationship is governed by the data processing agreement under Article 28 GDPR, which forms part of these terms and is entered into upon their acceptance. It governs in particular the subject matter and duration of the processing, the obligation to follow instructions, confidentiality, the technical and organisational measures, sub-processors, assistance with data subject rights and personal data breaches, and deletion at the end of the contract.

22. Changes to these terms

La Liguilla may change these terms where there is an objective reason, in particular legal changes, technical developments, new features, security requirements or changes to the business model. Changes that materially affect ongoing contracts are communicated to users in an appropriate form and in good time. Mandatory consumer rights remain unaffected.

23. Governing law and jurisdiction

Austrian law applies, excluding its conflict-of-law rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. For consumers, this choice of law applies only to the extent that it does not deprive them of the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the country of their habitual residence.

For businesses, Vienna is agreed as the exclusive place of jurisdiction to the extent permitted by law. For consumers, the statutory rules on jurisdiction apply.

24. Final provisions

Should any provision of these terms be or become wholly or partly invalid, the remaining provisions are unaffected. Invalid provisions are replaced by the statutory rules.

Language versions. These terms are provided in several languages. The German version is authoritative; the other language versions are translations provided for ease of understanding. Mandatory consumer rights remain unaffected, in particular the right to rely on the version provided in the consumer's own language.
