College Athlete Map Terms & Conditions

Effective Date: September 7, 2026
 

These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the College Athlete Map website, products, reports, and services.
 

College Athlete Map ("College Athlete Map," "CAM," "we," "us," or "our") is operated as a sole proprietorship in West Virginia.
 

By accessing our website, submitting an order, purchasing a service, or otherwise using our services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you should not purchase or use our services.

 

1. Our Services
 

College Athlete Map provides personalized college matching recommendations and digital recruiting resources designed to help student-athletes identify colleges and athletic programs that may align with their academic, athletic, financial, geographic, and personal preferences.
 

Depending on the package or service purchased, CAM services may include:
 

  • Personalized college match reports

  • CAM Match Scores

  • College and athletic program information

  • Explanations of why particular colleges may fit an athlete

  • College coach and recruiting contact information

  • Recruiting resumes

  • Recruiting email templates and resources

  • Recruiting checklists

  • Coach Outreach

  • Athlete promotional features

  • Other digital recruiting resources or services
     

All CAM products are digital unless expressly stated otherwise.
 

CAM currently focuses on baseball but may expand into additional sports or related services in the future.

 

2. Eligibility and Minors
 

CAM services may be purchased by adults who are legally capable of entering into an agreement.
 

When services are being purchased for an athlete under 18 years of age, the purchase must be completed or authorized by the athlete's parent or legal guardian. The parent or legal guardian is responsible for agreeing to these Terms on behalf of the minor athlete.
 

By purchasing services for a minor, you represent that you are authorized to provide the athlete's information to CAM and to authorize CAM to use that information as described in these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

 

3. Athlete and Customer Information
 

Customers are responsible for providing accurate, current, and complete information.
 

Information submitted to CAM may include, without limitation:
 

  • Athlete name and contact information

  • City and state

  • High school, college, team, or organization

  • Graduation year

  • Primary and secondary positions

  • Height and weight

  • Academic information, including GPA and intended major

  • Athletic statistics, measurements, metrics, awards, and accomplishments

  • Recruiting preferences

  • Recruiting profiles

  • Social media profiles

  • Photos

  • Videos and video links

  • Other information voluntarily submitted through our forms or communications
     

The quality and accuracy of CAM's recommendations depend in part on the information provided by the customer.

 

4. Incorrect Customer Information and Updated Reports
 

If a customer discovers that athlete information submitted during the ordering process was incorrect, CAM will provide one updated report at no additional charge after receiving the corrected information.
 

This applies to reasonable corrections to information such as GPA, position, intended major, measurements, recruiting preferences, or similar information used to create the report.
 

Substantial changes to an athlete's circumstances or preferences after the original order may be treated as a new service rather than a correction.

 

5. CAM Match Score and Recommendations
 

The CAM Match Score is a proprietary evaluative tool intended to help athletes and families compare potential college fits based on information, preferences, and criteria available to CAM.
 

A CAM Match Score is:
 

  • A personalized recommendation

  • Not an official college rating

  • Not an objective or universal ranking of a college

  • Not affiliated with or endorsed by any college, athletic conference, governing body, or recruiting organization

  • Not a prediction or guarantee of recruitment, admission, scholarship availability, roster placement, or playing time
     

Two athletes may receive different evaluations of the same college because their circumstances, preferences, academic profiles, athletic profiles, and recruiting priorities may differ.

 

6. No Recruiting, Admission, or Scholarship Guarantee
 

CAM provides recruiting information, recommendations, and resources. We do not control decisions made by colleges, coaches, admissions offices, athletic departments, scholarship committees, or governing organizations.
 

CAM does not guarantee:
 

  • Recruitment by any college or university

  • Communication or responses from college coaches

  • Admission to any college or university

  • Athletic or academic scholarships

  • Financial aid

  • Roster placement

  • Playing time

  • Tryout opportunities

  • Offers or commitments

  • Continued operation of a particular athletic program

  • Any specific recruiting outcome
     

Purchasing a CAM service does not guarantee or represent that an athlete's likelihood of being recruited, admitted, offered a scholarship, or placed on a roster will increase.

 

7. Recruiting and Athletic Eligibility
 

Customers and athletes are solely responsible for understanding and complying with applicable recruiting, eligibility, amateurism, admissions, transfer, and participation requirements.
 

These may include rules established by the NCAA, NAIA, NJCAA, athletic conferences, individual colleges, high school associations, and other governing organizations.
 

CAM does not determine, certify, or guarantee an athlete's eligibility.
 

Nothing provided by CAM constitutes legal, eligibility, compliance, or regulatory advice.

 

8. College, Academic, and Financial Information
 

CAM makes reasonable efforts to use accurate and relevant information when preparing reports.
 

However, information concerning colleges and athletic programs can change at any time. This includes:
 

  • Tuition and fees

  • Financial aid

  • Scholarship availability

  • Academic programs and majors

  • Admissions requirements

  • Enrollment

  • Coaching staffs

  • Team rosters

  • Recruiting needs

  • Athletic divisions or affiliations

  • Program availability

  • Facilities

  • Team performance

  • Other institutional information
     

CAM does not provide financial advice and does not guarantee tuition, scholarship, financial aid, or other cost information.
 

CAM also does not make admissions decisions or guarantee that an athlete satisfies a college's academic requirements.
 

Customers should independently verify important academic, financial, admissions, athletic, and recruiting information directly with the applicable institution before making enrollment, financial, or recruiting decisions.

 

9. Changes After Report Delivery
 

CAM is not responsible for changes occurring after a report has been completed or delivered.
 

For example, a college may subsequently change its coaching staff, recruiting needs, tuition, admissions standards, academic offerings, athletic affiliation, roster composition, scholarship availability, or athletic program status.
 

A report represents CAM's recommendations and available information at or around the time the report is prepared.

 

10. Coach Contact Information
 

Coach names, email addresses, phone numbers, and other recruiting contact information included in CAM materials are obtained from publicly available sources.
 

CAM makes reasonable efforts to provide accurate information but cannot guarantee that contact information will remain accurate or current.

Customers should verify important contact information through the college or athletic program when necessary.

 

11. Coach Outreach
 

Certain CAM packages may include Coach Outreach.
 

When a customer purchases a service that includes Coach Outreach, the customer authorizes CAM to contact selected college coaches, athletic programs, or their representatives on the athlete's behalf and to share information reasonably necessary to promote the athlete for recruiting purposes.
 

This information may include:
 

  • Athlete name and contact information

  • High school, college, team, or organization

  • Graduation year

  • Position

  • Height and weight

  • GPA and relevant academic information

  • Athletic statistics and performance metrics

  • Awards and accomplishments

  • Recruiting profiles

  • Social media links

  • Photos

  • Videos and video links

  • Other recruiting-related information submitted to CAM
     

Coach Outreach does not guarantee that a coach will receive, open, read, review, respond to, evaluate, recruit, or make an offer to an athlete.

 

12. Recruiting Resumes and Customer Deliverables
 

Customers who receive recruiting resumes, reports, email templates, or other personalized deliverables may use and share those completed deliverables for their personal recruiting purposes.
 

Customers may share completed CAM reports and recruiting materials with coaches, colleges, family members, trainers, advisors, and others.
 

Customers may not resell CAM materials or reproduce, extract, copy, or commercially distribute CAM's underlying templates, designs, scoring methodology, proprietary systems, or other intellectual property.
 

When CAM creates a recruiting resume or similar customized document, the customer may freely use the completed document, while CAM retains ownership of its underlying templates, layouts, designs, systems, and other proprietary materials.

 

13. User-Submitted Content
 

Athletes and customers retain ownership of photos, videos, information, and other content they submit to CAM.
 

By submitting content, the customer grants CAM a limited, non-exclusive license to access, use, reproduce, format, and process that content as reasonably necessary to provide the purchased services.
 

The customer represents that they have the right and authority to provide submitted content to CAM and authorize its use for these purposes.

 

14. Athlete Promotional Features
 

CAM may offer opportunities for athletes to be featured on CAM's website, social media accounts, marketing materials, or other promotional channels.
 

When separate permission or consent for promotional use has been provided by the athlete or, when required, their parent or legal guardian, CAM may use authorized athlete information and content such as:
 

  • Name

  • Photo or likeness

  • Graduation year

  • Position

  • School or team

  • Athletic statistics and metrics

  • Awards or accomplishments

  • Recruiting information

  • Social media or recruiting profile information
     

Purchasing a CAM service alone does not constitute unlimited consent for promotional use. Promotional use will be subject to the applicable authorization or consent provided to CAM.

 

15. Testimonials and Reviews
 

Customers may voluntarily submit reviews, testimonials, feedback, or comments about CAM.
 

By submitting written feedback for publication, the customer grants CAM permission to reproduce and display that feedback for legitimate business and promotional purposes.
 

CAM will obtain appropriate permission before associating a testimonial with an athlete's photo, likeness, or other identifying promotional content when such permission is required.

 

16. Orders and Payment
 

CAM currently accepts payments through:
 

  • Stripe, through CAM's Cognito Forms ordering process

  • Venmo, through payment requests sent by CAM's business Venmo account
     

For Venmo transactions, CAM may send the customer a payment request after receiving the applicable order or submission information.
 

An order is not considered ready for processing until CAM has received both:
 

  1. All required athlete/customer information; and

  2. Full payment.
     

Customers are responsible for providing accurate payment and order information.
 

Third-party payment services are also governed by their respective terms, policies, and security practices.

 

17. Taxes
 

Applicable taxes may be calculated and collected where required.
 

Customers are responsible for any taxes or charges associated with their purchase that are not otherwise collected during the transaction.

 

18. Delivery
 

CAM's standard delivery timeframe is 3–5 business days after both full payment and all required athlete information have been received.
 

For purposes of these Terms, "business days" means Monday through Friday, excluding United States federal holidays.
 

Delivery estimates are not guarantees. Delays may occasionally occur due to unusually high order volume, technical problems, incomplete information, circumstances beyond CAM's reasonable control, or other exceptional situations.
 

CAM will make reasonable efforts to communicate significant delays.

 

19. Order Cancellations
 

Customers may request cancellation of an order within 48 hours after the order is placed.
 

Cancellation requests should be sent to info@collegeathletemap.com.
 

After the 48-hour cancellation period has expired, cancellation or refund eligibility will be determined under CAM's Refund Policy.
 

If CAM has already fully completed and delivered the purchased service within the cancellation period at the customer's request or with the customer's agreement, the order may no longer be eligible for cancellation to the extent permitted by applicable law.

 

20. Refunds and Customer Satisfaction
 

Because CAM provides personalized digital services, refund requests are handled in accordance with CAM's separate Refund Policy.
 

If a customer is dissatisfied with the recommended colleges despite the report being prepared accurately based on the information provided, CAM may, at its discretion, make reasonable adjustments in an effort to address the customer's concerns.
 

CAM does not guarantee that requested schools, divisions, geographic areas, or other desired outcomes will appear in a report unless expressly included in the purchased service.
 

Nothing in these Terms limits any non-waivable consumer rights provided by applicable law.

 

21. Payment Disputes and Chargebacks
 

If a customer believes a billing error or service issue has occurred, we ask that the customer first contact CAM at info@collegeathletemap.com and provide us with a reasonable opportunity to investigate and resolve the issue.
 

Nothing in this section waives or restricts any chargeback, dispute, or consumer protection rights that cannot legally be waived.
 

Fraudulent or abusive payment disputes may result in refusal of future service.

 

22. Promotional Codes and Discounts
 

CAM may offer promotional codes, discounts, early-access offers, referral discounts, or other promotions.
 

Unless otherwise stated:
 

  • Promotional offers have no cash value

  • Offers may not be combined

  • Eligibility requirements may apply

  • Offers may be modified, suspended, or discontinued

  • Expiration dates may apply

  • Discounts cannot be redeemed for cash

  • Misuse, duplication, fraud, or unauthorized distribution may result in cancellation of the discount or order
     

CAM may establish additional terms for individual promotions.

 

23. Affiliate and Other Programs
 

Participation in CAM's affiliate, referral, ambassador, promotional, or other special programs may be governed by separate terms and conditions.
 

Participation in such a program constitutes agreement to any additional terms applicable to that program.

 

24. Intellectual Property
 

College Athlete Map owns or licenses the intellectual property associated with its business and services, including, as applicable:
 

  • College Athlete Map branding

  • CAM branding

  • Logos and graphics

  • Website design and content

  • Matching processes

  • Report designs and templates

  • Recruiting templates

  • Written materials

  • Proprietary systems and methods
     

Except for the limited customer usage rights expressly provided in these Terms, no ownership rights are transferred to customers.
 

Nothing in these Terms grants permission to copy, reproduce, reverse engineer, sell, license, or commercially exploit CAM's proprietary materials or methodology.

 

25. Acceptable Use
 

Users may not:
 

  • Attempt to hack, damage, disable, or disrupt CAM's website or services

  • Attempt to resell or commercially exploit CAM services without authorization

  • Interfere with another person's use of CAM services
     

CAM may restrict or refuse service when it reasonably believes these Terms have been violated.

 

26. Third-Party Websites and Services
 

CAM's website and reports may contain links to third-party websites and services, including college websites, athletic department websites, recruiting questionnaires, admissions applications, social media platforms, and other resources.
 

CAM does not control these third parties and is not responsible for their:
 

  • Content

  • Accuracy

  • Availability

  • Security

  • Privacy practices

  • Terms

  • Products or services
     

Links are provided for convenience and informational purposes and do not necessarily constitute endorsement.

 

27. Right to Refuse or Cancel Service
 

CAM reserves the right to refuse or cancel an order when reasonably necessary, including in cases involving suspected fraud, abuse, inaccurate information, misuse of CAM services, inability to provide the requested service, or violations of these Terms.
 

If CAM cancels a paid order before providing the purchased service, CAM will refund the amount paid for the canceled service unless the cancellation results from fraud, a payment reversal, or another circumstance in which a refund would be inappropriate or unlawful.

 

28. Website and Service Availability
 

CAM may modify, update, temporarily suspend, or discontinue portions of its website or services.
 

CAM does not guarantee that the website, forms, payment systems, reports, or other services will be available without interruption or error at all times.
 

We will make reasonable efforts to maintain reliable access to our services.

 

29. Disclaimer of Warranties
 

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, CAM's website, reports, recommendations, and services are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis.
 

CAM makes no warranty that its recommendations will produce any particular recruiting, academic, athletic, financial, or admissions result.
 

Nothing in this section excludes warranties or protections that cannot legally be excluded under applicable law.

 

30. Limitation of Liability
 

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, CAM will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from or relating to the use of CAM's website, reports, recommendations, or services.
 

To the fullest extent permitted by law, CAM's total liability arising from a particular purchased service will not exceed the amount actually paid to CAM for that service.
 

These limitations do not apply where liability cannot legally be limited or excluded.

 

31. Indemnification
 

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless College Athlete Map and its owner, representatives, contractors, and service providers from third-party claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and reasonable expenses arising from your:
 

  • Material violation of these Terms

  • Unlawful or unauthorized use of CAM services

  • Submission or use of content you do not have the right to provide

  • Fraudulent or intentionally misleading conduct
     

This provision does not require you to indemnify CAM for CAM's own unlawful conduct or liability that cannot legally be shifted to you.

 

32. Governing Law and Disputes
 

These Terms and any dispute arising from CAM's services will be governed by the laws of the State of West Virginia, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where applicable law requires otherwise.
 

Before filing a lawsuit, CAM and the customer are encouraged to make a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute informally.
 

To the extent legally permitted, disputes that cannot be resolved informally may be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in West Virginia.

Nothing in this section prevents either party from exercising rights or remedies that cannot legally be waived or restricted.

 

33. Changes to These Terms

CAM may update these Terms from time to time as our services, business practices, or legal obligations change.
 

Updated Terms will display a revised effective or updated date.
 

Unless otherwise required by law or expressly agreed, changes to these Terms will apply prospectively. A purchase will generally remain governed by the version of the Terms accepted in connection with that transaction.

 

34. Severability
 

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law or severed where necessary.
 

The remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

These Terms, together with CAM's Privacy Policy, Refund Policy, and any additional terms expressly applicable to a particular service or program, constitute the agreement between the customer and CAM concerning the applicable services.

College Athlete Map Refund & Cancellation Policy

Effective Date: September 7, 2026

​

College Athlete Map ("College Athlete Map," "CAM," "we," "us," or "our") provides personalized digital college matching reports and recruiting services.

​

Because CAM products are customized using information and preferences provided by each customer, cancellations and refunds are subject to the terms below.

​

​

1. 48-Hour Cancellation Policy

​

Customers may cancel an order within 48 hours from the time the order is placed and receive a full refund.

​

The 48-hour cancellation period is based on actual elapsed time and includes weekends and holidays.

​

For example, an order placed at 3:00 PM on Monday may generally be canceled until 3:00 PM on Wednesday.

​

To cancel an order, contact:

​

info@collegeathletemap.com

​

Please include sufficient information for CAM to identify your order.

​

​

2. Orders Completed Within 48 Hours

​

The right to cancel ends once CAM has fully completed and delivered the purchased personalized product or service, even if delivery occurs within 48 hours of the original order.

​

Once a completed personalized product has been delivered, any refund request will be evaluated under the remaining provisions of this Refund & Cancellation Policy.

​

​

3. Refund Requests After 48 Hours

​

After the 48-hour cancellation period has expired, refunds are not automatically guaranteed.

​

Refund requests will be reviewed by CAM on a case-by-case basis.

​

CAM may consider factors including:

​

  • Whether the purchased service was delivered

  • The nature of the customer's concern

  • Significant factual errors

  • Technical or delivery problems

  • Whether CAM has had an opportunity to correct the issue

  • Exceptional circumstances

  • Other relevant factors

 

Nothing in this section prevents CAM from issuing a full or partial refund when CAM determines that doing so is appropriate.

​

​

4. If CAM Cannot Fulfill an Order

​

If CAM determines that it cannot provide the purchased service, the customer will receive a full refund for the service CAM is unable to provide.

​

CAM may also cancel an order and issue a full refund when CAM reasonably determines that accepting or continuing the order is not appropriate.

​

​

5. Delivery Timeframes

​

CAM's standard delivery timeframe is 3–5 business days after CAM has received both:

​

  1. Full payment; and

  2. All required athlete/customer information.

 

For purposes of this policy, business days are Monday through Friday, excluding United States federal holidays.

​

The 3–5 business-day timeframe is an estimate and is not an unconditional delivery guarantee.

​

A delay beyond the estimated delivery timeframe does not automatically entitle the customer to a refund.

​

If an unexpected delay occurs, CAM will make reasonable efforts to complete the service within a reasonable additional period and communicate significant delays when appropriate.

​

​

6. Errors Made by CAM

​

CAM makes reasonable efforts to provide accurate, useful, and current information.

​

If a report contains a significant factual error caused by CAM, our first remedy will generally be to correct or replace the affected portion of the report at no additional charge.

​

A significant CAM error does not automatically require a refund when the issue can reasonably be corrected.

​

CAM may issue a full or partial refund when it determines that correction is not an adequate remedy or that a refund is otherwise appropriate.

​

​

7. Minor Errors and Third-Party Information

​

Minor issues generally do not qualify for an automatic refund.

​

Examples may include:

​

  • Typographical errors

  • Formatting issues

  • Broken third-party links

  • Coach contact information that recently changed

  • Minor information changes occurring around the time of report preparation

  • Other issues that do not materially affect the overall service

 

CAM will make reasonable efforts to correct appropriate errors brought to our attention.

​

​

8. Incorrect Information Submitted by the Customer

​

CAM recommendations depend on the information customers provide.

​

If a customer discovers that athlete information submitted during the ordering process was incorrect, CAM will provide one updated report at no additional charge after receiving the corrected information.

​

This may apply to reasonable corrections involving information such as:

​

  • GPA

  • Position

  • Intended major

  • Height or weight

  • Athletic information

  • Recruiting preferences

  • Other information used to prepare the report

 

Providing incorrect information does not generally create a right to a refund when CAM can reasonably address the issue through the complimentary updated report.

​

​

9. Changes in Preferences or Circumstances

​

The complimentary correction policy is intended for information that was incorrect when submitted.

​

It does not guarantee a free replacement report when a customer's preferences or circumstances change after the original submission.

​

For example, deciding after receiving a report that distance from home, school size, intended major, competition level, or another recruiting priority is now more or less important is considered a change in preference rather than correction of inaccurate information.

​

CAM may choose to accommodate reasonable changes at its discretion.

​

​

10. Dissatisfaction With College Matches

​

CAM's reports provide personalized recommendations based on athlete information, preferences, research, and CAM's matching methodology.

​

A customer does not automatically qualify for a refund simply because they:

​

  • Do not personally like one or more recommended colleges

  • Expected different colleges

  • Prefer another school

  • Disagree with a CAM Match Score

  • Were hoping for a different recommendation

​

When reasonable, CAM may make adjustments to a report at its discretion in an effort to address legitimate customer concerns.

​

​

11. Recruiting Outcomes

​

CAM does not guarantee recruiting results.

​

Refunds will not be issued solely because:

​

  • A coach does not respond

  • A coach does not recruit the athlete

  • The athlete does not receive an offer

  • The athlete does not receive an athletic or academic scholarship

  • The athlete is not admitted to a college

  • The athlete does not make a roster

  • The athlete does not receive desired playing time

  • The athlete does not receive a tryout

  • The athlete does not achieve another desired recruiting outcome

 

CAM provides recommendations and recruiting resources, not guaranteed outcomes.

​

​

12. Coach Outreach

​

Certain CAM packages may include Coach Outreach.

​

Coach Outreach does not guarantee that a college coach will receive, open, read, review, respond to, evaluate, recruit, or make an offer to an athlete.

​

A lack of response or recruiting interest from a coach does not, by itself, qualify an order for a refund.

​

​

13. Changes Made by Colleges After Delivery

​

College information and recruiting circumstances can change quickly.

​

Refunds will not generally be issued because a college subsequently changes:

​

  • Coaching staff

  • Recruiting needs

  • Team roster

  • Tuition or fees

  • Scholarship availability

  • Admissions requirements

  • Academic programs or majors

  • Athletic division or affiliation

  • Athletic program status

  • Facilities

  • Other institutional information

 

CAM reports reflect information and recommendations available at or around the time the report is prepared.

​

​

14. Unused Products or Services

​

Receiving a CAM report or recruiting resource but choosing not to open, review, share, or otherwise use it does not create a right to a refund.

​

Once a personalized digital product has been completed and delivered, non-use by the customer does not make the product undelivered.

​

​

15. Duplicate Purchases

​

If a customer accidentally purchases the same CAM package more than once for the same intended order, the customer should contact CAM.

​

After confirming the duplicate transaction, CAM will refund the unintended duplicate purchase.

​

​

16. Package Upgrades

​

If a customer purchases one CAM package and decides they intended to purchase a higher-level package, CAM may allow the customer to pay the difference between the packages rather than requiring cancellation and repurchase.

​

Customers should contact info@collegeathletemap.com as soon as possible to request an upgrade.

​

​

17. Package Downgrades

​

A customer may request to downgrade their purchased package during the applicable 48-hour cancellation period.

​

If approved and CAM has not already completed or delivered services beyond the lower-level package, CAM may refund the applicable difference in price.

​

After the cancellation period or after applicable personalized work has been completed, downgrade requests may be handled at CAM's discretion.

​

​

18. Promotional and Discount Codes

​

Customers are responsible for entering an applicable promotional or affiliate code when required during the ordering process.

​

If a customer completes a purchase without using an available promotional code, CAM is not required to retroactively apply the discount or refund the difference.

​

CAM may choose to make an exception at its discretion.

​

​

19. Stripe and Venmo Payments

​

This Refund & Cancellation Policy applies regardless of whether an eligible CAM purchase was paid through:

​

  • Stripe

  • Venmo

 

Approved refunds will generally be returned through the original payment method whenever reasonably possible.

​

If returning funds through the original method is not possible, CAM may arrange another reasonable refund method with the customer.

​

​

20. Refund Processing Time

​

Once CAM approves a refund, CAM will generally initiate the refund within 5–10 business days.

​

After CAM initiates the refund, additional processing time may be required by Stripe, Venmo, a bank, card issuer, financial institution, or other payment provider before the funds become available to the customer.

​

CAM does not control third-party processing times.

​

​

21. Processing Fees

​

When CAM approves a full refund, the customer will generally receive the full eligible refund amount even if CAM incurs or does not recover ordinary payment-processing fees associated with the original transaction.

​

This does not require CAM to reimburse unrelated fees separately imposed on the customer by the customer's own bank, financial institution, payment provider, currency conversion service, or similar third party.

​

​

22. Partial Refunds

​

CAM reserves the right to offer a partial refund when CAM determines that a partial refund is a fair and appropriate resolution.

​

Acceptance of a partial refund may be subject to any terms communicated in connection with that resolution.

​

​

23. Payment Disputes and Chargebacks

​

If a customer believes there has been a billing error or legitimate problem with a CAM service, we ask that the customer first contact:

​

info@collegeathletemap.com

​

This gives CAM a reasonable opportunity to investigate and resolve the issue.

​

Nothing in this policy waives or restricts any payment dispute, chargeback, or consumer protection right that cannot legally be waived.

​

Fraudulent or abusive payment disputes may result in refusal of future service.

​

​

24. Refund Abuse and Fraud

​

CAM reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to deny refund requests and/or refuse future service in situations involving:

​

  • Fraudulent transactions

  • False information

  • Refund abuse

  • Repeated bad-faith refund requests

  • Chargeback abuse

  • Manipulation of promotions or affiliate codes

  • Other deceptive or abusive conduct

 

 

25. Affiliate Commissions on Refunded or Canceled Orders

​

If an order associated with a CAM affiliate is canceled, refunded, charged back, reversed, fraudulent, or otherwise determined to be ineligible, the related affiliate commission will not be payable.

​

If the commission is still Pending, the affiliate dashboard may reflect the order as canceled or otherwise ineligible.

​

Affiliate commissions are governed further by the College Athlete Map Affiliate Program Terms & Conditions.

​

​

26. Digital Products

​

CAM currently provides digital products and services.

​

No physical product is shipped as part of CAM's standard services.

​

Because CAM reports and recruiting materials are personalized digital products, their customized nature is an important factor when CAM evaluates refund requests after the cancellation period.

​

​

27. Consumer Rights

​

Nothing in this Refund & Cancellation Policy is intended to limit, waive, or exclude any refund, cancellation, statutory warranty, or consumer protection right that cannot legally be waived or limited.

​

Where applicable law provides greater rights than this policy, the applicable legal requirements will control.

​

​

28. Changes to This Policy

​

CAM may update this Refund & Cancellation Policy as its products, services, payment methods, or business practices change.

​

Changes generally apply prospectively unless applicable law requires otherwise.

​

The policy applicable to a particular transaction will generally be the version in effect when the applicable purchase was made.

Approved affiliates may receive promotional tools such as:

​

  • A unique affiliate or promotional code

  • A referral link

  • Access to an affiliate dashboard

  • CAM-approved promotional materials

  • Other referral or marketing resources provided by CAM

​

Participation in the Affiliate Program does not guarantee referrals, sales, commissions, or income.

​

​

2. Eligibility

​

Anyone who meets the applicable age requirements may apply to participate in the Affiliate Program.

Affiliates must:

​

  • Be at least 16 years old; or

  • If under 16, have the consent of a parent or legal guardian to participate.

 

Applicants must reside in the United States or Canada unless CAM expressly approves participation from another location.

​

CAM may request reasonable information necessary to verify an applicant's identity, eligibility, payment information, or compliance with these Affiliate Terms.

​

​

3. Application and Approval

​

Submitting an application does not guarantee acceptance into the Affiliate Program.

​

All applications are subject to review and approval by CAM.

​

CAM reserves the right to approve or reject an application at its discretion, subject to applicable law.

​

An applicant may not represent themselves as an approved CAM affiliate until CAM has confirmed their acceptance into the Affiliate Program.

​

​

4. Independent Contractor Relationship

​

Affiliates participate as independent contractors.

​

Nothing in these Affiliate Terms creates an employer-employee, partnership, joint venture, franchise, agency, or similar relationship between CAM and an affiliate.

​

Affiliates are not employees or authorized representatives of CAM and may not represent themselves as such.

​

Affiliates do not have authority to enter into agreements, make commitments, incur obligations, or make representations on behalf of CAM.

​

​

5. Affiliate Referral Methods

​

CAM may provide affiliates with one or more methods for tracking referrals, including:

​

  • Unique promotional codes

  • Unique referral links

  • A "Who referred you?" field during the customer's ordering process

  • Other tracking methods established by CAM

​

The availability and functionality of individual tracking methods may change over time.

​

​

6. Qualifying Referrals

​

For a sale to qualify for an affiliate commission, CAM must be able to reasonably attribute the customer to the affiliate.

​

Generally, the customer must identify the affiliate through an applicable affiliate name, promotional code, referral link, or other CAM-approved tracking method and complete payment in full.

​

A referral does not qualify for commission merely because an affiliate introduced, contacted, or communicated with a potential customer if CAM cannot reasonably verify the referral.

​

CAM reserves the right to determine referral attribution when circumstances are unclear or multiple affiliates claim the same customer.

​

​

7. Missing Referral Credit

​

If an affiliate believes a qualifying referral was not properly tracked, the affiliate may contact CAM and request manual review.

​

Requests for missing referral credit must generally be submitted within 30 days of the applicable customer's purchase.

​

CAM may request reasonable supporting information demonstrating that the affiliate was responsible for the referral.

​

CAM will determine whether sufficient evidence exists to manually credit the referral.

​

​

8. Multiple Affiliate Claims

​

If multiple affiliates claim credit for the same customer or sale, CAM will determine which affiliate, if any, receives the commission.

​

CAM may consider factors including:

​

  • The promotional code used

  • The referral link used

  • Information entered by the customer

  • Timing of the referrals

  • Communications or other reasonable evidence

  • CAM's internal records

 

CAM's determination will be made reasonably and in good faith.

​

​

9. Customer Discounts

​

Affiliate promotional codes may provide customers with a discount on eligible CAM purchases.

​

The amount and availability of the customer discount are determined by CAM and may vary by promotion, product, affiliate, or time period.

​

Affiliate discounts:

​

  • Have no cash value

  • May be subject to expiration dates

  • May not be combined with other offers unless CAM permits it

  • May be changed or discontinued prospectively by CAM

  • Must be used in accordance with these Affiliate Terms and any additional promotional rules provided by CAM

 

 

10. Affiliate Commission

​

Approved affiliates earn a 20% commission on qualifying sales, regardless of which eligible CAM package the customer purchases, unless CAM provides written notice of a prospective change to the commission structure.

​

Commission is calculated using the net qualifying sale amount actually received by CAM.

​

For purposes of commission calculations, the net qualifying sale amount excludes amounts such as:

​

  • Discounts

  • Refunds

  • Canceled transactions

  • Chargebacks or payment reversals

  • Taxes

  • Fraudulent or invalid transactions

  • Other amounts not ultimately retained by CAM as revenue from the applicable sale

​

​

11. Pending Commissions

​

When CAM identifies a qualifying referred purchase, the commission may initially appear in the affiliate's dashboard as Pending.

​

A Pending commission does not mean the commission has been approved for payout.

​

CAM may review Pending commissions to confirm:

​

  • Successful payment

  • Proper referral attribution

  • Order validity

  • Cancellation status

  • Refund status

  • Chargeback status

  • Compliance with these Affiliate Terms

  • Absence of fraud or manipulation

 

If an order is canceled, refunded, reversed, determined to be fraudulent, or otherwise becomes ineligible before approval, the corresponding commission will not be paid and the affiliate dashboard may reflect the order as canceled, invalid, or otherwise ineligible.

​

​

12. Approved Commissions and Payout Schedule

​

Commissions are paid on the last calendar day of each month for approved commissions earned during the previous calendar month.

​

For example, an approved qualifying commission generated from an August 20 purchase would generally be paid on September 30.

​

There is currently no minimum payout threshold.

​

CAM may reasonably delay a particular commission while investigating suspected fraud, a payment dispute, referral attribution, or another legitimate issue affecting eligibility.

​

​

13. Refunds, Cancellations, and Chargebacks

​

Affiliates do not earn commissions on transactions that are canceled, refunded, charged back, reversed, fraudulent, or otherwise invalid.

​

If a customer cancels an order while the related affiliate commission is Pending, the order may be marked as canceled in the affiliate dashboard and no commission will be paid.

​

If a commission has already been paid and the underlying transaction is subsequently refunded, charged back, reversed, or determined to be invalid, CAM may deduct the applicable commission from a future affiliate payout.

​

If no future commissions are available, CAM reserves the right to reasonably address the overpayment with the affiliate where appropriate.

​

​

14. Affiliate Payout Methods

​

CAM currently offers affiliate payouts through:

​

  • Venmo

  • PayPal

 

Affiliates are responsible for providing accurate and current payout information.

​

CAM is not responsible for delays or failed payments caused by incorrect payout information supplied by the affiliate.

​

CAM will generally cover ordinary payout fees charged directly to CAM for issuing a standard affiliate payment. Affiliates remain responsible for fees, currency conversion charges, receiving fees, account restrictions, or other charges imposed by their own payment provider or account.

​

CAM may add, remove, or modify supported payout methods in the future.

​

​

15. Taxes

​

Affiliates are responsible for determining, reporting, and paying any taxes applicable to commissions they receive.

​

CAM may request tax forms, identification information, or other documentation when required by applicable law.

​

Failure to provide legally required information may result in delayed or withheld payments to the extent required by law.

​

Nothing provided by CAM constitutes tax or legal advice.

​

​

16. Self-Referrals

​

Affiliates may use their own promotional code to receive an available customer discount when purchasing an eligible CAM service for themselves.

​

However, affiliates may not earn a commission on their own purchases.

​

CAM may remove any self-generated commission from an affiliate dashboard.

​

Legitimate referrals involving friends, relatives, teammates, clients, or other individuals are permitted, provided the transaction is genuine and otherwise complies with these Affiliate Terms.

​

​

17. Affiliate Marketing

​

Affiliates may promote CAM through legitimate marketing channels, including:

​

  • Social media

  • Websites

  • Blogs

  • Email

  • Direct messages

  • Personal networks

  • Paid advertising

  • Other lawful promotional channels

​

All promotion must be accurate, lawful, professional, and consistent with these Affiliate Terms.

​

​

18. Advertising and Brand Search Terms

​

Affiliates may use paid advertising to promote CAM, subject to these Affiliate Terms and any additional guidelines CAM provides.

​

Unless CAM provides prior written permission, affiliates may not purchase, bid on, or target paid search advertising using CAM's protected brand terms, including:

​

  • College Athlete Map

  • CAM when used to identify College Athlete Map

  • CollegeAthleteMap.com

  • Misspellings or confusing variations of CAM brand terms

 

Affiliates may not create advertisements, domains, social accounts, pages, or other materials designed to make users believe they are interacting directly with CAM when they are interacting with an affiliate.

​

​

19. CAM Branding and Promotional Materials

​

CAM may provide affiliates with logos, graphics, written copy, images, or other promotional materials.

​

Affiliates may use authorized CAM branding solely for legitimate promotion of CAM and the Affiliate Program.

​

Affiliates may also create their own promotional content, provided that it:

​

  • Accurately represents CAM

  • Does not alter CAM's trademarks in a misleading manner

  • Does not imply CAM endorsement of claims CAM has not approved

  • Does not imitate CAM's official website or accounts

  • Complies with these Affiliate Terms

 

CAM may require an affiliate to modify or remove promotional content that CAM reasonably believes is inaccurate, misleading, inappropriate, outdated, or harmful to the CAM brand.

 

 

20. Recruiting and Service Claims

​

Affiliates must accurately describe CAM's services.

​

Affiliates may not state or imply that CAM guarantees:

​

  • College recruitment

  • Coach responses

  • Scholarships

  • Admission

  • Playing time

  • Roster placement

  • Offers

  • Commitments

  • Any particular recruiting outcome

 

Affiliates may not make claims about CAM's services, results, pricing, discounts, or capabilities that are false, misleading, unsubstantiated, or inconsistent with information provided by CAM.

​

​

21. Affiliate Disclosure

​

Affiliates must clearly disclose their affiliate relationship when promoting CAM where required by applicable law or platform rules.

​

The disclosure should make it reasonably clear that the affiliate may receive compensation when someone purchases through their referral.

​

Affiliates are responsible for complying with applicable advertising, endorsement, social media, and consumer protection requirements.

​

​

22. Email, Direct Messages, and Spam

​

Affiliates may conduct reasonable individual outreach through email, direct messages, social media, or similar channels.

​

Affiliates may not use:

​

  • Unsolicited bulk email

  • Automated mass direct messages

  • Bots designed to generate unsolicited promotional messages

  • Purchased or unlawfully obtained contact lists

  • Deceptive messaging

  • Harassing or repetitive outreach

  • Other forms of unlawful or abusive spam

 

Affiliates are responsible for complying with applicable email, messaging, advertising, and privacy laws.

​

​

23. Promotional Code Distribution

​

Affiliates may share their promotional codes through legitimate channels, including social media, websites, personal communications, and communities that permit promotional content.

​

Affiliates may not submit or distribute CAM promotional codes to coupon aggregators, automated coupon services, deal websites, or similar platforms without CAM's prior permission.

​

CAM may require removal of a promotional code from a website, platform, or distribution channel if CAM determines that its use is inconsistent with the Affiliate Program.

​

​

24. Fraud and Referral Manipulation

​

CAM prohibits attempts to artificially generate or manipulate referrals, commissions, discounts, or transactions.

​

Prohibited conduct includes:

​

  • Fake orders

  • Fraudulent transactions

  • Creating false customer identities

  • Manipulating referral tracking

  • Claiming referrals that did not originate from the affiliate

  • Unauthorized use of another affiliate's code

  • Coordinating transactions primarily to generate commissions

  • Payment fraud

  • Other deceptive practices

 

CAM may cancel commissions, withhold payouts, suspend accounts, or terminate affiliates when CAM reasonably determines that fraudulent or abusive activity has occurred.

​

​

25. Affiliate Dashboard

 

CAM may provide affiliates with access to a dashboard, including through a private or shared Google Sheet or another system selected by CAM.

​

The dashboard may display information such as:

​

  • Referred orders

  • Pending commissions

  • Approved commissions

  • Canceled transactions

  • Payout status

  • Other program information

 

Dashboard information is provided for convenience and may occasionally require corrections or updates.

​

The dashboard itself does not create an unconditional right to payment for a Pending or otherwise ineligible commission.

​

​

26. Customer Privacy

​

Affiliates will not receive private customer information except to the limited extent reasonably necessary to administer or verify referrals and commissions.

​

Affiliates may not attempt to obtain, access, disclose, sell, or misuse private CAM customer information.

​

Any customer information an affiliate legitimately receives in connection with the Affiliate Program must be handled responsibly and only used for authorized purposes.

​

​

27. Confidential Information

​

Affiliates may occasionally receive nonpublic information concerning CAM, including information about:

​

  • Promotions

  • Sales

  • Customers or referrals

  • Products or services

  • Future plans

  • Internal business practices

  • Affiliate performance

  • Other nonpublic business information

​

Affiliates may not disclose or misuse CAM's confidential information except as necessary to participate in the Affiliate Program or as required by law.

​

Information that is already publicly available through no violation of these Affiliate Terms is not considered confidential.

​

​

28. Affiliate Earnings Claims

​

Affiliates may truthfully discuss their own experience with the Affiliate Program but may not make false or misleading earnings claims.

​

Affiliates may not state or imply that another person is guaranteed to earn a particular amount by participating in the Affiliate Program.

​

CAM makes no guarantee that an affiliate will generate referrals, sales, commissions, or income.

​

Affiliate results will vary.

​

​

29. CAM Records and Commission Disputes

​

CAM will maintain records used to administer referral attribution, commission calculations, and payouts.

​

CAM's records will control unless an affiliate provides reasonable evidence demonstrating that an error occurred.

​

Affiliates should promptly notify CAM if they believe their dashboard, referral attribution, commission calculation, or payout contains an error.

​

CAM will review legitimate disputes in good faith.

​

​

30. Changes to Commission Rates

​

CAM may modify the Affiliate Program's commission structure prospectively.

​

Unless otherwise stated, a change to the commission rate may take effect immediately for new referrals occurring after the change becomes effective.

​

A prospective commission change will not eliminate legitimate commissions already earned and approved under the commission structure applicable at the time of the qualifying referral.

​

CAM will make reasonable efforts to communicate material commission changes to active affiliates.

​

​

31. Leaving the Affiliate Program

​

Affiliates may stop participating in the Affiliate Program at any time.

​

Affiliates may contact CAM to request closure of their affiliate participation.

​

Legitimate commissions already earned and approved before voluntary termination remain payable in accordance with the applicable payout schedule, subject to these Affiliate Terms.

​

​

32. Suspension and Termination by CAM

​

CAM may suspend or terminate an affiliate's participation when reasonably necessary, including for:

​

  • Violation of these Affiliate Terms

  • Fraud or suspected fraud

  • Referral manipulation

  • Spam or abusive marketing

​

  • Legitimate commissions earned and approved before termination remain payable.

  • Pending commissions may be reviewed before payment.

  • Fraudulent, manipulated, invalid, refunded, canceled, charged-back, or otherwise ineligible commissions may be canceled or forfeited.

  • Termination does not create entitlement to future commissions from referrals occurring after termination.

​

​

34. Program Changes or Discontinuation

​

CAM may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Affiliate Program at any time.

​

Where reasonably practical, CAM will provide notice of material changes affecting active affiliates.

​

Legitimate commissions already earned and approved before the effective date of a program discontinuation remain payable subject to these Affiliate Terms.

​

​

35. Limitation of Liability

​

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, CAM will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from participation in the Affiliate Program.

​

CAM does not guarantee uninterrupted operation of referral links, promotional codes, dashboards, payment providers, websites, or tracking systems.

​

Nothing in these Affiliate Terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

​

​

36. Indemnification

​

To the extent permitted by applicable law, affiliates agree to indemnify and hold harmless College Athlete Map and its owner, representatives, contractors, and service providers from third-party claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and reasonable expenses arising from the affiliate's:

​

  • Material violation of these Affiliate Terms

  • Unlawful marketing activity

  • False or misleading representations

  • Unauthorized use of intellectual property

  • Fraudulent conduct

  • Violation of applicable law

  • Misuse of customer or confidential information

​

This provision does not require an affiliate to indemnify CAM for CAM's own unlawful conduct or liability that cannot legally be shifted.

​

​

37. Governing Law and Disputes

​

These Affiliate Terms and disputes arising from the Affiliate Program will be governed by the laws of the State of West Virginia, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where applicable law requires otherwise.

​

Before filing a lawsuit, CAM and the affiliate are encouraged to make a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute informally.

​

To the extent legally permitted, disputes that cannot be resolved informally may be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in West Virginia.

​

Nothing in this section limits rights or remedies that cannot legally be waived.

​

​

38. Changes to These Affiliate Terms

​

CAM may update these Affiliate Terms as the Affiliate Program, business practices, or legal requirements change.

​

Updated Affiliate Terms will display a revised effective or updated date.

​

Changes generally apply prospectively unless applicable law requires otherwise.

​

Continued participation in the Affiliate Program after updated terms become effective may constitute acceptance of the updated terms where permitted by law.

​

​

39. Severability

​

If any provision of these Affiliate Terms is determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

​
