contacts the issuing institution directly to confirm their legitimacy. This applies to all Coaches, including those in

is found to be false, incomplete, or no longer accurate.

Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to update or modify these Terms and Conditions at any time. The date of the latest update will
be displayed at the beginning of this document. It is your responsibility to review these terms periodically. Material
changes will be communicated in accordance with the notice provisions set out in the relevant governing document

Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or freeze your access to Coachfinder in accordance with the terms of the Coach Agreement and
Plan & Pricing Schedule, or where you breach these Terms. Where your account is frozen under the terms of the
Plan & Pricing Schedule, this is not a termination — your profile information and history are retained, and you may
reactivate at any time by purchasing a new plan. Coachfinder reserves the right to terminate your account outright,
with notice where reasonably practicable, for serious or repeated violations of these Terms.

Governing Law

These Terms and Conditions are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of South Africa. As the
Platform expands to other countries, additional local terms may apply and will be communicated at that time.

Institutional Registration

You may use Coachfinder for personal or business purposes, as intended by Coachfinder, including as an individual Coach, a Client, or an Institution (a school, university, club, academy, or brand partner) registering and operating a business account under these Terms.
