Please read these Terms of Use ("Terms") carefully before using the NIL Ledger platform operated by Athlete Infrastructure LLC, d/b/a NIL Ledger ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account or using any part of the NIL Ledger platform (the "Service"), you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age (or have parental/guardian consent if under 18), that you have read and understood these Terms, and that you agree to be legally bound by them.

2. Description of Service

NIL Ledger is a financial organization and tracking platform designed for college athletes earning Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) income. The Service includes tools for income tracking, expense logging, deal management, tax reserve estimation, NCAA compliance logging, and CPA export functionality.

Important: NIL Ledger is a financial organization tool only. We are not a licensed financial advisor, tax advisor, accounting firm, or law firm. Nothing in the Service constitutes financial, tax, legal, or investment advice. Tax reserve calculations are estimates only. Always consult a qualified CPA or tax professional for your actual tax obligations.

3. User Accounts

To use the Service, you must create an account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration, maintain the security of your credentials, notify us immediately at support@nilledger.com if you suspect unauthorized access, and accept responsibility for all activity under your account.

4. Subscriptions and Billing

Plans: NIL Ledger offers paid subscription plans (Pro and Elite) billed monthly or annually. Pricing is displayed at nilledger.com and is subject to change with notice.

Free Trial: New users receive a 7-day free trial. A valid credit card is required to begin your free trial. Your card will not be charged until the 7-day trial period ends. You may cancel at any time during the trial and you will not be charged. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, your subscription will automatically begin and your card will be charged the applicable plan rate.

Credit Card Collection: By entering your credit card information at signup, you authorize NIL Ledger to store your payment method securely via our payment processor, Stripe, and to charge your card automatically at the conclusion of the free trial period and on each subsequent billing date. We do not store your full card number — all payment information is handled and encrypted by Stripe in accordance with PCI-DSS standards.

Billing: Subscriptions are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis. Annual subscriptions are billed in full at the start of the billing period. Payments are processed by Stripe.

Cancellation: You may cancel your subscription at any time through the billing portal in your account settings. Cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period. We do not provide refunds for partial billing periods except where required by applicable law.

Price Changes: We reserve the right to change subscription prices. We will provide at least 30 days' advance notice of any price changes. Your continued use of the Service after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.
