You agree not to: use the Site in any manner that could damage, disable, or impair the Site or interfere with any other party’s use; attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the Site, its servers, or any connected systems; use any automated means (bots, scrapers, spiders, or similar tools) to access or collect information from the Site without our written permission; use the Site to transmit unsolicited advertising, spam, or promotional material; or misrepresent your identity or provide false information on any form.

Forms, Submissions, and Embedded Agreements
When you submit information through forms on the Site (including the contact form, tryout interest form, competitive team registration, Adaptive Soccer registration, volunteer signup, or email list signup), you agree to provide accurate and complete information.
Certain forms contain or reference separate agreements, including but not limited to: Tryout Participation Agreement; Photo/Video Release; Adaptive Soccer Player Participation Agreement; Adaptive Soccer Volunteer Agreement; Adaptive Soccer Photo/Media Release; Competitive Team Enrollment Policy; and Camps and Recreational Enrollment Policy. These agreements have their own terms and conditions. By checking the applicable acknowledgment boxes and submitting the form, you agree to be bound by those separate agreements. Copies of these agreements are available on request by contacting admin@cupertinofc.org.
Additional Policies
Participation in Cupertino FC programs is also subject to our Non-Discrimination Policy, Cancellation Policy, and Code of Conduct, each of which is available on the Site. These policies are incorporated by reference into these Terms to the extent they apply.
Fee Calculator
The competitive team registration form includes a fee calculator that estimates registration fees based on your selections. This calculator is provided for reference and convenience. While we strive for accuracy, Cupertino FC reserves the right to correct any errors in fee calculations. In the event of a discrepancy, the correct amount will be communicated to you before payment is due.
Registration and Payment
No payment information (credit card numbers, bank account numbers) is collected on this Site. When you submit a registration form, you will receive instructions to complete payment through your selected method (Zelle, check, or PayPal). Camp and recreational program payments are processed through Active Network. All payment transactions occur on external platforms subject to their own terms and privacy policies.
