Terms of use · Astuten

Last updated: 2026-11-11

These terms cover the Astuten app (iPhone, iPad, Android and the web) and the website astuten.com. By creating an account or using Astuten, you agree to them. If you don’t agree, please don’t use Astuten.

Who we are

Astuten is operated by Astuten.io Ltd, a New Zealand company based in Wellington (“we”). Contact: support@astuten.com.

Your account

You must be 16 or over to create an account. A younger player’s parent or guardian can join the team instead.
Keep your sign-in details to yourself. You’re responsible for what happens under your account.
You can delete your account at any time. See Delete your account.

Using Astuten

Astuten is for planning and tracking playing time for your teams. You agree not to:

enter information about people that you have no right to share;
use it to harass, bully or single out a player, parent or coach;
try to access teams or accounts that aren’t yours;
copy, resell or reverse-engineer the service, or disrupt it for others.

Your teams and the names you enter

The teams, players and match records you enter are yours. You give us permission to store and display them so the service can work, and nothing more.
If you’re a coach, you’re responsible for the names you enter. A first name, a nickname or an initial is enough. Please don’t enter full names, or anything about a player that isn’t needed to run the team.
By adding a player, you confirm you have a real reason to, as their coach or team manager. If your club, school or league has rules about player information, following them is up to you.
Anyone you invite with a code can see the team’s players and stats. Choose who you invite, and remove people who shouldn’t be there.

Our privacy policy explains what we store and how to delete it.

It’s a tool; you’re the coach

Astuten suggests plans and keeps count of minutes. Decisions on the sideline are yours, including who plays, player welfare and safety, and whether you’ve met your league’s playing-time rules. Check the numbers that matter to you: timers depend on your device, and we can’t promise they’ll never be wrong.

Changes and availability

Astuten is new and still changing. We may add, change or remove features, and the service may sometimes be unavailable. We’ll try to give notice of anything that affects your data.

Cost

Astuten is free to use today. If we introduce paid plans, we’ll add the payment terms here and tell you first. You’ll never be charged without choosing to pay.

Ending your use

You can stop using Astuten and delete your account whenever you like. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or puts other people or the service at risk. Where we reasonably can, we’ll tell you first and give you the chance to export or fix things.

What we promise, and what we don’t

We provide Astuten with reasonable care and skill. Beyond that, and as far as the law allows, it’s provided “as is”, without warranties.

If you use Astuten as a consumer, you keep the rights the law gives you, including under New Zealand’s Consumer Guarantees Act 1993. Nothing in these terms removes them. If you use Astuten for a business, such as a paid coaching service, you agree that Act doesn’t apply.

As far as the law allows, we aren’t liable for indirect or consequential loss, and our total liability to you is limited to the greater of NZ$100 or what you paid us in the previous 12 months.

Changes to these terms

If we make a material change, we’ll tell you in the app or by email before it takes effect. If you keep using Astuten after that, you accept the new terms.

Governing law

New Zealand law applies, and the New Zealand courts have jurisdiction. If you’re a consumer in another country, you keep any protections your local law says can’t be taken away.
