Terms of Use & Disclaimer
Last updated: 9 November 2026
These terms apply to the use of StartScout.
1. About StartScout
StartScout is a Dutch service for finding and monitoring legitimate routes to participate in sporting events. Full company details can be requested below.
2. What StartScout does
StartScout monitors public and accessible information about sporting events and looks for legitimate routes where regular registration is restricted, closed or sold out.
3. StartScout does not sell entries
StartScout does not itself sell, reserve or broker race entries unless explicitly stated otherwise. We direct users to external sources where an opportunity may be available.
4. No guarantee of availability
Opportunities can change or disappear quickly. StartScout cannot guarantee that an entry, registration code, package or other opportunity is still available when you receive an alert or visit an external source.
5. Always check the official source
Information from the organiser or another official or authorised source always takes precedence. You are responsible for checking current terms, prices, availability, deadlines and eligibility before registering or purchasing.
6. No guarantee of completeness
StartScout cannot guarantee that every possible route will be discovered or that alerts will always be delivered without delay or technical interruption.
7. External websites
StartScout is not responsible for the content, availability, prices, terms or services of external websites or organisations. A link does not necessarily imply a commercial relationship.
8. Use of AI
StartScout may use AI to analyse public event information and prepare draft text. Relevant opportunities are checked within the current workflow before customer alerts are sent. AI output does not replace the official source.
9. Pilot and paid services
Features, availability and pricing may change as StartScout develops. Any applicable price and service conditions are shown before purchase.
10. Responsible use
StartScout may not be used for fraud, deception, unauthorised resale, circumventing organiser rules or other unlawful activities. Misuse may lead to blocked access.
11. Availability of StartScout
We aim to provide a reliable service but cannot guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability. Maintenance, outages and changes at external sources can affect the service.
12. Liability
StartScout is not liable solely because an external opportunity becomes unavailable, an external party changes its terms or external information proves inaccurate or outdated. To the extent permitted by law, liability is limited to direct loss demonstrably resulting from a failure attributable to StartScout. Mandatory rights remain unaffected.
13. Intellectual property
The StartScout name, website, original text, design and software may not be copied or commercially exploited without permission, except where permitted by law. Third-party rights remain with their owners.
14. Privacy
Our processing of personal data is described in our Privacy Notice.
15. Changes
These terms may be updated as StartScout develops. The latest version is published on this page.
16. Governing law
These terms are governed by Dutch law where legally permitted. Mandatory consumer rights remain unaffected.
17. Contact & company details
