Barn Court Terms of Use
Effective November 9, 2026. These terms are the agreement between you and Barn Court, and they apply when you create an account or use the Barn Court app or website.
1. Who we are and what these terms cover
Barn Court is a scheduling and communication app for riding barns. Trainers, riders and parents use it to book lessons, track horse shows, share notes and message each other. Barn Court is operated by TDigital, which this page calls "Barn Court," "we" or "us." By creating an account or using the app you agree to these terms, our Privacy Policy and our Community Rules. If you do not agree, do not use Barn Court.
2. Who can use Barn Court
You must give accurate information and keep it up to date.
Riders under 18 may use Barn Court only with the knowledge and consent of a parent or guardian. A parent or guardian is linked to the rider's account and is included in the rider's conversations with adults.
Children under 13 may not create their own account. A parent or guardian must set it up and manage it.
If you create an account on behalf of a barn, you confirm you are authorized to do so.
3. Your account
You are responsible for your password and for what happens under your account. Tell us at support@barncourt.net if you think someone else has accessed it. Accounts are personal and may not be shared or sold.
4. Roles in the app
Trainers create and manage a barn, publish lesson schedules, approve riders and horses, and post announcements. Trainers are responsible for how they use the information riders and parents give them.
Riders and parents can see their own schedule, sign up for lessons and shows, and message their barn.
Each barn runs its own program. Lesson prices, cancellation rules, waivers and any payments between a barn and its clients are set by the barn and handled outside Barn Court.
5. Beta service
Barn Court is currently a free beta. Features may change, break or be removed, and data may occasionally be lost. We do not currently charge for the app. If we introduce paid plans we will tell you in advance, and you will not be charged without agreeing to it.
6. Your content
You keep ownership of what you post, such as notes, photos, videos, horse records and messages. You give Barn Court a limited license to store, display and transmit that content so the app can work for you and the people you share it with. You confirm you have the right to post it, including permission from a parent or guardian before posting any photo, video or personal information of a minor.
7. Community rules
You agree to follow the Community Rules. In short, do not harass, threaten or bully anyone. Do not post sexual, hateful or illegal content. Do not post a minor's photo or personal information without a parent's permission. Do not impersonate others, spam, or try to break the app. Content or behavior that puts a child at risk is never allowed.
8. Reporting, blocking and moderation
Any member can report a message or person from the ⋯ menu, and can block another member under My Account, then Blocked members.
Reports go to the barn's trainer and to Barn Court. We aim to review reports within 24 hours.
We may remove content, limit features or suspend or delete accounts that break these terms or the Community Rules, with or without notice.
Parents of a minor rider cannot be blocked by anyone in a conversation that includes that rider.
To report a safety concern or abuse concern about a minor, use the report option in the app, and in an emergency contact local authorities first.
9. Safety and emergencies
Barn Court is a scheduling and messaging tool. It does not provide riding instruction, supervise lessons, or check anyone's skills, horses or facilities. Riding and working around horses carry real risk of injury. Each barn is responsible for its own safety practices, waivers and insurance. Do not use Barn Court to contact emergency services. In an emergency, call 911.
10. Notifications
If you allow them, Barn Court sends push notifications about lessons, shows, messages and announcements. You can turn them off in your phone's settings at any time. Notifications are a convenience, so do not rely on them as your only way to learn about a schedule change.
11. Privacy and account deletion
Our Privacy Policy explains what we collect and how we use it. You can delete your account at any time in the app under My Account. Deleting your account removes your profile and personal information as described in the Privacy Policy. We may keep limited records where the law requires it or to deal with safety reports.
12. Our property
The Barn Court app, design, name and software belong to us and our licensors. We give you a personal, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app for its intended purpose. You may not copy, reverse engineer, resell or scrape it.
13. Third-party services
Barn Court relies on services from other companies, such as Apple, a hosting and database provider, and push notification services. We are not responsible for those companies' services, and your use of them may be subject to their own terms.
14. Ending your use
You can stop using Barn Court and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or end your access if you break these terms, if we need to protect other members, or if we discontinue the app. Sections that by their nature should continue, such as ownership, disclaimers and limits of liability, will continue after your account ends.
15. Disclaimers and limits of liability
Barn Court is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent the law allows. We do not guarantee the app will be uninterrupted, error-free or secure. To the fullest extent the law allows, Barn Court is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages, for injuries or losses arising from riding, lessons, horses or barn activities, or for disputes between you and your barn or other members. Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability to you is limited to $100. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
16. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as the app changes. If a change is material, we will tell you in the app or by email before it takes effect. Continuing to use Barn Court after that means you accept the updated terms.
17. Apple App Store terms
If you downloaded Barn Court from the Apple App Store, you also agree to the following:
These terms are between you and Barn Court, not Apple. Barn Court, not Apple, is responsible for the app and its content.
Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the app.
If the app fails to meet any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple may refund the purchase price, if any. Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app.
Barn Court, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims about the app, including product liability, legal compliance and privacy claims.
Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.
You confirm you are not located in a country under a U.S. government embargo and are not on a U.S. government list of restricted parties.
18. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Collin County, Texas, and you agree to that jurisdiction, except where the law of your home state gives you the right to sue there.
