07 - Advocate Platform and Business Branding Agreement

Final approved agreements - version 2026-11-10-N1. Published agreement text.

Version 2026-11-10-N1

1. Parties, selection and order

3Ball Basketball Shooting Training, LLC, DBA 3Ball Network (3Ball), and the Customer identified in an accepted order enter this agreement only after both authorized parties accept the complete agreement and order. Support, billing and contract notices: support@3ballnetwork.com; privacy: privacy@3ballnetwork.com; safety: safety@3ballnetwork.com. 3Ball's postal address is above. Customer notices use the verified business address recorded in the order. Preparation of this form alone starts no service, charge or legal relationship.

2. Alternative options and exact price

Option A is standard advocate access under 3Ball branding: $19.99/month with no $5,000 setup fee; its approved $199 annual alternative remains available where offered. Option B is one Customer legal business, one approved brand and one branded workspace: $5,000 setup plus ONE TOTAL $19.99 monthly platform fee. It replaces, rather than adds to, an ordinary advocate subscription for that covered service. There is no separate royalty/revenue share, annual branded price or unlimited additional business-seat promise. Extra scope requires an accepted quote before work or charges. Disclose applicable taxes and the exact total; do not assume tax-exempt status.

3. Defined setup deliverables

Option B applies Customer's authorized business name, logo and agreed supported visual styling to the existing platform website/app interfaces identified in the branding specification. Include intake and requirements review; configuration of one workspace; one initial preview and up to two consolidated revision rounds within existing branding controls; desktop/tablet/phone layout checks; one remote onboarding session up to 60 minutes; and an administrative handoff guide. Preserve necessary operator/legal disclosures, security, verification, consent, permissions and safety supervision. Branding never alters grades or grants formula access.

Not included unless separately quoted and accepted: bespoke features, source code/ownership, exclusive territory, leads or earnings guarantees, recruitment/scholarship outcomes, separate app-store listings/accounts/submission, paid integrations, domains/DNS/custom-domain work, mailbox services, content creation, bulk migration or unlimited storage/support. Website/app branding does not itself mean a separately distributed native app. Customer supplies lawful assets, accurate business facts and timely consolidated feedback. Notify Customer of input-related schedule changes. Scope changes require a written price/schedule agreement before work; no automatic extra-work fee applies.

4. Upfront setup and monthly start

After required legal prerequisites and disclosures, invoice the $5,000 before setup starts. Receipt does not make the entire amount immediately earned. Start work only after accepted final instruments, valid authorization and necessary inputs. Standard Option A uses the approved trial/reminders. Option B charges no monthly branded fee while setup service is unavailable. Branded recurring service begins only after affirmative final acceptance and availability, on the order's reconciled schedule, preserving any running trial, renewal date, prepaid credit and cancellation. Never duplicate the advocate subscription or restart canceled renewal by implication.

Customer has 10 business days after a delivered preview/completed workspace to identify material deviations. Correct covered deviations without another setup fee; silence is not acceptance. The window is not a trial or cutoff of statutory rights. No minimum monthly commitment or annual branded term is established. Price changes follow at least 30 days' notice, an eligible renewal and additional consent where required.

5. Earned milestones, cancellation and refunds

Allocate the $5,000 as follows: $1,000 for completed intake, documented requirements and approved specification; $2,500 for delivery of a configured preview materially meeting that specification; $1,500 for correcting covered material defects, Customer's affirmative final acceptance, availability and onboarding/handoff, or an express waiver of the session. These are service allocations, not penalties. An incomplete milestone is not automatically earned.

Before any milestone is completed, a cancellation receives the full $5,000 refund. Later convenience cancellation permits retention only of documented completed milestones without an unresolved material defect; refund the remainder with an itemized explanation. Do not deduct processor fees. If 3Ball cannot provide the agreed service, offer correction or a mutually signed revised scope/schedule. If a material failure remains uncured 15 business days after written notice, Customer may terminate the affected setup and receive refunds for unearned, undelivered or materially nonconforming work. If 3Ball elects not to perform before work begins, refund all setup payments.

Submit approved refunds within 10 business days to the original payer/method where supported; settlement can take longer. Verify any required alternative. No unrelated complaint release is required and mandatory rights prevail.

6. Monthly cancellation and switching

Cancel future renewal through billing or verified support. Confirm the last service date; access normally lasts through paid time. No automatic partial-period convenience refund applies except law or an approved service-failure claim. Refund unused affected prepaid service if 3Ball discontinues it without Customer breach. Cancellation does not refund properly earned setup work or impose another $5,000 charge.

The billing agreement governs failed-payment recovery, disputes, resumption and waivers, including no paused-time billing, original renewal preservation, sub-$1 upgrade waiver and sub-$0.50 old-balance/resumption waivers. A cured debt does not restart canceled renewal; debt remains the original payer's. A switch to standard service removes custom branding at the paid-period end and continues standard $19.99/month only on Customer's clear continuation instruction. Later rebranding/reactivation requires an accepted new scope/quote; a second $5,000 fee is not automatic.

7. Ownership and licenses

3Ball retains platform software, code, architecture, private methodology/formula, reusable systems, documentation, trademarks and improvements, excluding Customer/third-party rights. Fees buy service, not source code or title. Customer retains its lawful business name, trademarks and supplied materials and grants a nonexclusive limited license to configure, host, maintain and support this service and necessary transition/recordkeeping. Public marketing with Customer's identity requires separate written approval. Customer confirms necessary asset rights; 3Ball will not knowingly use unauthorized assets.

During the accepted service term, Customer receives a nonexclusive, nontransferable service-use license for the order's permitted users and business purpose. No resale, sublicensing, source extraction, exclusive territory or workspace assignment is granted without written agreement. Mandatory legal rights remain unaffected. Players/families retain their own content and personal-information rights; Customer's logo conveys no ownership of their records.

8. Data responsibility and service boundaries

The accompanying Data Responsibility Addendum applies to a branded order. Allocate roles by actual processing, not a blanket controller/processor label. Customer's independent advice/services and business representations remain its responsibility. It may access only verified-role and player/guardian-authorized records, with no bulk extraction or unrelated reuse. No guaranteed recruitment, scholarship, admission, earnings or official NCAA status may be promised on 3Ball's behalf.

Service includes hosting, maintenance and standard support within the accepted scope. Support is through support@3ballnetwork.com without a guaranteed response time or 24-hour staffing unless a separately accepted service-level schedule provides it. No unlimited seat, storage, media or usage entitlement is inferred; the order must state actual allowances before acceptance. A material reduction or extra billable work needs appropriate notice and agreement. No end-user billing, data-monetization or revenue-sharing authority is created here.

9. Confidentiality, suspension and transition

Each party uses the other's nonpublic business information only for the agreement, protects it reasonably and restricts disclosure to people with appropriate duties and a need to know. Exceptions are lawfully public, independently developed or rightfully received information; compelled disclosure uses notice where permitted and appropriate limits. Protection continues for three years after termination, and longer for personal data under law and trade secrets while qualifying. Formula disclosure is not an ordinary deliverable.

Apply proportionate immediate restrictions for credible safety/security threats or unlawful use; give notice when lawful and safe. Ordinary remediable breach receives written notice and 15 business days to cure. At termination, stop claiming an active branded license and remove the affected custom branding. Preserve independently valid free player/parent, billing and safety rights and the approved recruiter read-only exception; no general professional-history access is promised after expiration.

On a verified request within 30 days after service ends, provide an available standard-format export of Customer-supplied business assets and information it may lawfully receive. Exclude source code/formulas, other users' private data, privileged/security-sensitive content and legally restricted material. Quote extraordinary work before agreement. Apply the category retention schedule and lawful holds; do not export children's records or private conversations merely because Customer paid.

10. Warranty, liability and business claims

3Ball will perform defined setup with reasonable care and materially according to the accepted specification, with correction/refund remedies above. No uninterrupted service, earnings or recruiting outcome is warranted. Except express and nonwaivable warranties, implied warranties are excluded to the extent lawful. For ordinary direct claims under this business agreement, liability is capped at the greater of $5,000 or the fees paid for the affected service in the preceding 12 months; indirect/consequential/punitive losses are excluded to the extent lawful. Exceptions are fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, death/personal injury, confidentiality/privacy/security breaches, intellectual-property infringement/misappropriation, unpaid authorized fees, express refund obligations and nonwaivable liability.

For a third-party claim caused by a party's supplied material infringing intellectual property or by its unlawful use of the service, that responsible party will defend and indemnify the other only to the extent caused by that conduct. Require prompt notice, reasonable cooperation at the responsible party's expense, competent defense and no settlement imposing an admission, nonmonetary duty or uncovered payment without written consent. Exclude claims caused by the other party's modification, unauthorized use or wrongdoing. This business clause does not impose consumer indemnity or permit disclosure of protected player data.

11. General provisions and signature process

Use Mississippi law and, unless mandatory law requires otherwise, Hinds County state courts or the federal court serving that county. Optional informal discussion for up to 30 days does not bar urgent relief or a timely filing. No mandatory arbitration, class-action waiver, personal guaranty or shortened claim period applies. A party's delay caused by events beyond reasonable control excuses only the affected performance while reasonable mitigation continues; it does not excuse safeguarding duties, refunds for undelivered services, accrued lawful payment duties or legally required notice.

No assignment that defeats participant rights is permitted; Customer assignment needs 3Ball's written consent, not unreasonably withheld for a lawful successor meeting the same requirements. A specific signed commercial order controls conflicting general commercial terms, while mandatory law and privacy/safety protections prevail. Changes require documented agreement, not retroactive fees. Sever invalid terms where lawful. The completed order, branding specification, this agreement, Data Responsibility Addendum and incorporated platform terms form the agreement. Electronic signatures/counterparts are permitted where lawful, with copies available.

12. Order formation - real facts supplied at execution

The order system or signed order must supply Customer legal name, authorized representative and verified notice contacts; selected A/B option; business/brand/workspace and exact permitted users/usage/storage/media; supported branding screens and attribution; inputs, milestones and target dates; authorized payer, taxes and total; reconciled activation/renewal date and existing credit; and agreement/addendum/specification versions. These are required transaction records, not facts to invent in a master form. Missing required facts prevent acceptance and charging. No full card information belongs in the agreement. 3Ball's authorized signer and Customer's authorized signer then sign/date or complete equivalent recorded electronic acceptance. Do not use the ordinary user signup checkbox to execute a business order.

13. Franchise/business-opportunity release condition

This branded offering remains unavailable for an offer, binding signature or payment until counsel determines applicable franchise/business-opportunity treatment and required disclosures, waiting periods, registration or exemption. The software-service title does not decide classification. If a rule applies, complete its prerequisites before the covered event. No exemption or franchise registration is represented by this agreement. This restriction does not authorize changing live settings or delaying unrelated core-platform work.
