Terms of Service
Last updated September 18, 2026
These terms cover your use of Boxscore (the “site”), a free daily sports puzzle site run by one person (“I” or “me”). By using the site you agree to them. If you don’t agree, please don’t use it.
1. The site
Boxscore offers free daily and unlimited sports puzzle games. It’s provided as a hobby project: games, features, and data may change, be paused, or be removed at any time without notice.
2. Who can use it
You must be at least 13 years old. If you’re under the age of majority where you live, use the site only with a parent or guardian’s permission.
3. Accounts
Accounts are optional. If you create one, give accurate information, keep your sign-in secure, and you’re responsible for activity under it. I may suspend or remove accounts that break these terms. See the Privacy Policy for how account data is handled.
4. Play fair
Please don’t:
- submit fabricated or manipulated results to the leaderboard, including by calling the site’s endpoints directly or using scripts, bots, or solvers to post scores;
- scrape, bulk-download, or automatically query the site or its data, or otherwise put unreasonable load on it;
- try to disrupt, probe, or bypass the site’s security or limits;
- use a display name that is offensive, hateful, or that impersonates another person or organization.
I may remove leaderboard entries or names, reset scores, or block access if these rules are broken, at my discretion.
5. The public leaderboard
Your display name and results are shown publicly on the leaderboard, as explained in the Privacy Policy. Choose a display name you’re comfortable with. Leaderboard results are for fun: they aren’t verified, and I don’t guarantee their accuracy or permanence.
6. Ownership
The site’s design, code, puzzle generation, and original text belong to me. You’re welcome to play and to share your results (for example, with the built-in share button), but please don’t copy or republish the site or its puzzles as your own.
7. Third-party names, images, and data
Player, team, league, and club names, logos, and photos are the property of their respective owners and are used here only to identify them in a trivia game. Boxscore is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any league, team, club, federation, or player.
Puzzle data is compiled from public datasets, league data services, and Wikipedia, and some of it is licensed by its sources (for example the Lahman Baseball Database and Wikipedia, both CC BY-SA), as noted in the site footer. It can contain errors or be out of date. Don’t rely on it for betting, fantasy decisions, or anything where accuracy matters.
8. Third-party services and links
The site uses third-party services (such as sign-in, hosting, and image hosts) and may link to other sites. I don’t control them and am not responsible for their content or practices.
9. No warranty
The site is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that your stats, streaks, or leaderboard results will be preserved.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, I’m not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or for any loss of data, streaks, or profits, arising from your use of the site. Where liability can’t be excluded, it is limited to the greatest extent permitted by law. Nothing here limits rights you have under law that can’t be waived.
11. Ending your use
You can stop using the site at any time. I can suspend or end access at any time, including for breaking these terms.
12. Changes
I may update these terms from time to time; the date at the top shows the latest version. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms. If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest still applies.
13. Governing law
These terms, and any dispute arising from them or from your use of the site, are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any such dispute will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and you agree to their jurisdiction.
