Terms of use
Last updated: 26 May 2025
1. The service
RaceBase (racebase.avirow.io) is a web service provided by Johan Lysemark (sole trader). The service offers tools for creating and administering rowing regattas, handling entries and generating start lists.
By creating an account and using the service you accept these terms in full.
2. Account and access
An account is required to use RaceBase. You are responsible for ensuring that the details you give about yourself are correct and up to date. You may not share your account with others or use other people's accounts.
We reserve the right to suspend or delete accounts that misuse the service or breach these terms.
3. Publication of participant details
Important: participant details are public
When you enter rowers in a regatta, their name and club affiliation are published in start lists that are visible to all visitors to the website — with no sign-in required. These details may also be exported to timing systems (e.g. CrewTimer) to administer regattas.
By entering a participant you confirm that:
- you have the right to give the participant's details to the service,
- the participant is aware that their name and club are published publicly in connection with the regatta,
- the details are correct.
4. AI processing of uploaded files
RaceBase offers the option of importing regatta programmes by uploading files (PDF, Excel, CSV). These files are sent to OpenAI for AI-assisted analysis and extraction of regatta information.
Do not upload files containing sensitive personal data (e.g. national identity numbers, health information or similar) beyond what is necessary for the regatta programme. You are responsible for the content of the files you upload.
5. Permitted use
You undertake not to use the service to:
- give false information about yourself or participants you enter,
- spread illegal or offensive content,
- attempt to manipulate, disrupt or attack the service's technical systems,
- register fictitious participants or manipulate race results.
6. Intellectual property rights
All content, code and design in RaceBase belong to Johan Lysemark or the respective rights holders. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive right to use the service for its intended purpose.
You retain the rights to the information you register in the service and give us permission to store and display it in accordance with these terms and our privacy policy.
7. Limitation of liability
The service is provided as is and without warranties of reliability, availability or freedom from errors. We are not liable for damage resulting from:
- technical faults or downtime,
- loss of data,
- unauthorised access to your account caused by your not protecting your sign-in details.
Nothing in these terms limits rights arising from mandatory consumer protection legislation.
8. Changes to the terms
We may update these terms. In the event of material changes we will notify you by email. Continued use of the service after changes take effect means that you accept the updated terms.
9. Governing law and dispute resolution
These terms are governed by Swedish law. Disputes that cannot be settled amicably are decided by a general court in Sweden.
