League Terms and Conditions
Individual Leagues within the HuntLeague service require a separate user agreement from the Terms of Use (TOU) agreement used to create your account. HuntLeague does not share or sell user data outside of third party companies directly related to the functionality of the application (for example, cloud and database storage to back up your profile and Hunt Logs). Leagues within the application may be hosted by companies, individuals, or organizations and may require some form of data sharing or validation to participate. Please read carefully to fully understand how this league is setup and how your personal data will be used if you choose to join a specific league within the HuntLeague service.
By accessing or joining LEAGUES made available by HuntLeague (together, the “Service”), however accessed, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use (“TOU”). If you are between 13 and 18 years of age, you hereby agree that your legal guardian has read these TOU and agree that you are bound by the TOU. The Service is owned or controlled by Impact Adventures, LLC (“HuntLeague” or “HL/IA”).
These Terms of Use affect your legal rights and obligations. If you do not agree to be bound by all of these Terms of Use, do not access or use the Service.
ARBITRATION NOTICE: YOU AGREE THAT DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND HUNTLEAGUE WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION.
OUR PROMISE TO YOU
- PERSONAL INFORMATION: HuntLeague does not sell or share your personal information (except with entities required for the app to function such as hosting, the App Store, etc). You may read more about how your data is used in the Privacy section below.
- LOCATION DATA & SHARING: We recognize the value of finding a productive hunting location. We have designed the app to help you identify these and keep them private. Your hunt specific locations will never be shared publicly. If you choose to share Hunt Log information with a BUDDY or PARTY, you may choose to un-share this information at any time.
- Content posted to the community page or shared publicly from your account should avoid identifiable landmarks.
- Do not share via photo/video/or text GPS latitude/longitude coordinates on a Community post.
- Do not post content, that in HuntLeague’s reasonable judgment, may be found objectionable or inappropriate, for example, materials that may be considered obscene, pornographic, sexually suggestive, unlawful, hateful, discriminatory, crude, infringing, or defamatory.
- This League is hosted by HuntLeague therefore it follows HuntLeague’s standard Privacy Policy (We do not sell or share your personal information) with the following exception:
- Sponsored prizes/products may be sent directly from the sponsor company. In which case, HuntLeague will share the winner’s first & last name, mailing address, and email with that specific sponsor company for fulfillment purposes.
HuntLeague competitions aim to promote ethical hunting practices in accordance with city/state/federal laws. We believe hunters should play a primary role in the stewardship of the land and animals that we hunt. We encourage all users to report the illegal take of game animals and poaching as it violates the rights of all hunters, outdoorsman, and people. Ethical hunting practices are constantly debated amongst hunting buddies as well as within state and federal courts. Just because something may be legal doesn’t mean it is ethical. Leagues are designed to celebrate the best of what we can accomplish as hunters and not just the harvest of animals.
THE LEADERBOARD
The HuntLeague leaderboard provides a foundation for our leagues to compete. It is designed to reward effort in the field and has nothing to do with the size or score of the animal harvested. With each event (sighting, sign, shot, note, success, etc) logged your score and rank improves. There are daily and season limits in place that help regulate point distribution and account for varying laws and season bag limits for each species. It will always be an imperfect system as it cannot possibly account for every factor we face in the field or be a true reflection of one’s skills and ability.
X-FACTORS
Outside of the Leaderboard, other significant x-factors are activity counts, community posts/summaries, and engagement along with diversity of species and methods of take. Each league will operate differently and may place bonus points for things such as opening day success or the first person to log a success for a certain species. Factors like this are not automated though as season dates are not universal from region to region and the selection committee for the finalists in a league do not have access to individual Hunt Logs.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS
In addition to what is listed above, the selection committee or judges panel may request for candidates to submit a questionnaire, along with photos, or access to specific hunt logs.
*Emails requesting additional information will always be sent from a “huntleague.com” email address. Requests will not be come from individual user accounts within the app or non-“huntleague.com” emails.
The league is brought to you by HuntLeague. Prize packages will be provided by HuntLeague or one of our generous sponsors.
ANNOUNCING WINNERS
Within 30 days of the designated end date for a league, finalists will be selected, a judges panel will be formed, and the winners will be announced. Finalists may be asked to submit a questionnaire, participate in a live stream event, phone call, or virtual meeting with a panel of judges. This panel will then make the final decision and designate the league’s winners. Prizes will then be sent out within 60 days following the completion of a league.

To the fullest extent permissible by law, neither HuntLeague nor Impact Adventures LLC nor any of their employees, managers, officers or agents (HL/IA parties) make any representations or warranties or endorsements of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, as to: (a) the service; (b) the HuntLeague content; (c) user content; or (d) security associated with the transmission of information to HuntLeague or via the service. In addition, the HL/IA parties hereby disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, title, custom, trade, quiet enjoyment, system integration and freedom from computer virus.

You acknowledge that your use of the service is at your sole risk. The HL/IA parties do not warrant that your use of the service is lawful in any particular jurisdiction, and the HL/IA parties specifically disclaim such warranties. Some jurisdictions limit or do not allow the disclaimer of implied or other warranties so the above disclaimer may not apply to you to the extent such jurisdiction’s law is applicable to you and these TOU.
Do not use the service for any purpose requiring precise direction, distance or location. All content made available through the service is made available for informational purposes only. You are solely responsible for confirming the accuracy of all information before taking or omitting any action.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY; WAIVER
Under no circumstances will the HL/IA parties be liable to you for any loss or damages of any kind (including, without limitation, for any direct, indirect, economic, exemplary, special, punitive, incidental or consequential losses or damages) that are directly or indirectly related to: (a) the service; (b) the HuntLeague content; (c) user content; (d) your use of, inability to use, or the performance of the service; (e) any action taken in connection with an investigation by the HL/IA parties or law enforcement authorities regarding your or any other party’s use of the service; (f) any action taken in connection with copyright or other intellectual property owners; (g) any errors or omissions in the service’s operation; or (h) any damage to any user’s computer, mobile device, or other equipment or technology including, without limitation, damage from any security breach or from any virus, bugs, tampering, fraud, error, omission, interruption, defect, delay in operation or transmission, computer line or network failure or any other technical or other malfunction, including, without limitation, damages for lost profits, loss of goodwill, loss of data, work stoppage, accuracy of results, or computer failure or malfunction, even if foreseeable or even if the HL/IA parties have been advised of or should have known of the possibility of such damages, whether in an action of contract, negligence, strict liability or tort (including, without limitation, whether caused in whole or in part by negligence, acts of god, telecommunications failure, or theft or destruction of the service). In no event will the HL/IA parties be liable to you or anyone else for loss, damage or injury, including, without limitation, death or personal injury. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. In no event will the HL/IA parties total liability to you for all damages, losses or causes or action exceed twenty united states dollars ($20.00).
In no event shall HL/IA’s total liability to you for all claims arising from or relating to the TOU or your access to or use of (or inability to access or use) the service exceed the greater of fifty dollars ($50) or the amount paid by you to HuntLeague for access to the service (or portion thereof) within the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the date on which the applicable claim arose.
You agree that in the event you incur any damages, losses or injuries that arise out of HL/IA’s parties acts or omissions, the damages, if any, caused to you are not irreparable or sufficient to entitle you to an injunction preventing any exploitation of any web site, service, property, product or other content owned or controlled by the HL/IA parties, and you will have no rights to enjoin or restrain the development, production, distribution, advertising, exhibition or exploitation of any web site, property, product, service, or other content owned or controlled by the HL/IA parties.
You acknowledge and agree that your use of the service may involve known and unanticipated risks that could result in property damage, bodily injury or death, including, but not limited to, risks that may arise from the acts of others and other risks beyond the control of HuntLeague. You assume all such risks and all related damages and losses, whether caused in whole or in party by any act or omission of HL/IA parties. You voluntarily release, waive, discharge and hold harmless HL/IA parties from any and all claims, demands or causes of action for property damage, bodily injury, wrongful death, loss of services or other claims arising from or relating to your access to or use of (or inability to access or use) the service.
By accessing the service, you understand that you may be waiving rights with respect to claims that are at this time unknown or unsuspected, and in accordance with such waiver, you acknowledge that you have read and understand, and hereby expressly waive, the benefits of section 1542 of the civil code of California, and any similar law of any state or territory, which provides as follows: “a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”
HuntLeague nor Impact Adventures LLC are responsible for the actions, content, information, or data of third parties, and you release us, our directors, officers, employees, and agents from any claims and damages, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with any claim you have against any such third parties.
The limitation of liability set out in this section does not apply to liability resulting from HuntLeague’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
INDEMNIFICATION
You (and also any third party for whom you operate an account or activity on the Service) agree to defend (at Impact Adventure LLC’s request), indemnify and hold the HL/IA Parties harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, arising out of or in any way connected with any of the following (including as a result of your direct activities on the Service or those conducted on your behalf): (i) your Content or your access to or use of the Service; (ii) your breach or alleged breach of these Terms of Use; (iii) your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation, any intellectual property right, publicity, confidentiality, property or privacy right; (iv) your violation of any laws, rules, regulations, codes, statutes, ordinances or orders of any governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, including, without limitation, all regulatory, administrative and legislative authorities; or (v) any misrepresentation made by you. You will cooperate as fully required by HuntLeague in the defense of any claim. HL/IA reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, and you will not in any event settle any claim without the prior written consent of HL/IA.
You will indemnify and hold HL/IA and its affiliates, and each of their officers, directors, employees, agents, partners and licensors (collectively, “HL/IA Parties”) harmless from and against any claim, demand, loss, damage, cost, liability and expense, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from or arising out of your: (a) access to or use of the Service; (b) violation of the TOU or any law or regulation; or (c) violation of any rights of another party.
ARBITRATION
ALL CLAIMS SHALL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT, EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY ASSERT CLAIMS IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT IF YOUR CLAIMS QUALIFY. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED.
You agree that all disputes between you and HuntLeague (whether or not such dispute involves a third party) with regard to your relationship with HL/IA, including without limitation disputes related to these TOU, your use of the Service, and/or rights of privacy and/or publicity, will be resolved only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action or arbitration. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial and agree that such claim shall be brought only in the united states district court for the district of Colorado (Denver) or, if federal jurisdiction is not available, in a court of competent jurisdiction in El Paso County, Colorado. You hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts and waive any objection on the grounds of venue, forum non-conveniens or any similar grounds with respect to any such claim.
The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language by a single independent and neutral arbitrator. For any hearing conducted in person as part of the arbitration, you agree that the hearing will be conducted in the largest city in your state within 100 miles of where you live. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding. Judgment on the arbitral award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
If the prohibition against class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties contained above is found to be unenforceable, then all of the preceding language in this Arbitration section will be null and void. This arbitration agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with HL/IA.
TIME LIMITATIONS ON CLAIMS
You agree that any claim you may have arising out of or related to your relationship with HuntLeague must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, your claim is permanently barred.
TERRITORIAL RESTRICTIONS
The information provided within the Service is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject HL/IA to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. We reserve the right to limit the availability of the Service or any portion of the Service, to any person, geographic area, or jurisdiction, at any time and in our sole discretion, and to limit the quantities of any content, program, product, service or other feature that HL/IA provides.
Software related to or made available by the Service may be subject to United States export controls. Thus, no software from the Service may be downloaded, exported or re-exported: (a) into (or to a national or resident of) any country to which the United States has embargoed goods; or (b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Commerce Department’s Table of Deny Orders. By downloading any software related to the Service, you represent and warrant that you are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of, any such country or on any such list.
