Copyright Policy
Last updated: 27 October 2026
1. Scope
This policy applies to Ninja Timer’s app, websites, branding, software, documentation, design, graphics, sounds, animations, workflows, templates, reports and other materials, as well as content uploaded by users and outputs generated from user data.
2. Ninja Timer intellectual property
Except where stated otherwise, Ninja Timer or its licensors own or license the intellectual property rights in the Services, including source code, software architecture, interface design, Ninja Timer logos and marks, original written content, original graphics/audio, documentation and Ninja Timer-created templates. Rights arise under applicable law, including the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth), where applicable. This policy does not claim ownership of material that belongs to a user, an event organiser, a sporting organisation or a third-party licensor.
3. User data and outputs
Users and organisations retain ownership of data and content they own or are authorised to use, including athlete lists, event details, results, media and notes, subject to the rights of athletes and other third parties. Ninja Timer does not acquire ownership of a user’s underlying data merely because it is entered into the Services.
Ninja Timer owns or licenses the software, templates, layouts and methods used to process and present data. A user may use their own results and permitted exports for legitimate training, event administration, reporting and recordkeeping, subject to privacy, third-party rights, event rules and the applicable licence. Raw facts, times and scores are not automatically exclusive property of Ninja Timer simply because the app displays them.
4. Limited licence
Subject to the Terms and any separate commercial agreement, Ninja Timer grants a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access and use the Services for their intended purposes. Paid or commercial use, white-labelling, redistribution, API access, integration or use beyond the licence scope may require written permission.
5. Restrictions
• Do not copy, republish, sell, sublicense or distribute Ninja Timer software or protected materials without permission, except as permitted by law.
• Do not remove or alter copyright notices, trademarks or attribution where they are required to remain.
• Do not use Ninja Timer branding in a way that suggests endorsement, partnership or affiliation without written approval.
• Do not scrape, harvest or bulk-extract information in breach of the Terms, privacy rights, database rights or applicable law.
• Do not reverse engineer or circumvent technical protections except where such restriction is prohibited by law.
• Do not upload or broadcast material unless you have the necessary copyright, privacy, image, music and other permissions.
6. Broadcasts, photographs and media
The fact that a result, photograph, video, event logo, course design or broadcast graphic can be uploaded or viewed through Ninja Timer does not mean it is free to reuse. Organisers must secure the permissions needed for their event’s media, music, logos, sponsor material and athlete imagery. Ninja Timer’s permission to display user content is limited to operating the feature or another expressly agreed purpose.
7. Third-party and open-source material
Third-party trademarks, governing-body rulebooks, logos, images, music and software remain subject to their owners’ rights and licence terms. Ninja Timer may include open-source components under their applicable licences. Where a licence requires notices or source availability, those obligations take precedence over inconsistent wording in this policy.
8. Copyright complaints
If you believe material on the Services infringes your copyright, email ninjatimerinfo@myyahoo.com with: (a) your name and contact details; (b) identification of the protected work; (c) the specific URL or location of the material; (d) an explanation of your rights and why you believe the use is unauthorised; and (e) a statement that the information is accurate and you are authorised to make the complaint. We may request further evidence, temporarily restrict access while investigating, notify the uploader and restore material where appropriate.
9. Counter-notices and repeat infringement
If your content is removed following a complaint, you may contact ninjatimerinfo@myyahoo.com with supporting information explaining why you believe removal was mistaken or authorised. We will review the matter fairly. Repeated or deliberate infringement may lead to restrictions or termination, subject to applicable law.
10. No implied endorsement; changes
Use of the Services does not create a partnership, agency, sponsorship or endorsement relationship. Permission to use Ninja Timer’s name, logos or brand assets must be obtained separately unless an official brand kit expressly permits the intended use. We may update this policy; the version and effective date will be displayed on our website.
