Terms of Use
Last updated September 21, 2026
By using Hoopspire you agree to these terms. They are deliberately short and plain.
What this site is
Hoopspire is an independent basketball reference and news index. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the NBA, WNBA, FIBA, EuroLeague, PBA, KBL, B.League, NBL, NCAA, or any other league, club or broadcaster named on it. All league names, club names, logos and trademarks belong to their respective owners and are used here only to identify the competitions being reported on.
Accuracy
Scores, standings, fixtures and rosters are pulled from third-party feeds and may be delayed, incomplete or wrong. Where a source is unavailable, the site says so rather than filling the gap. Nothing here is official. Do not rely on it for anything that matters — and in particular, do not rely on it for betting or wagering decisions.
Third-party content
News items show a headline, a short extract and a byline, and link to the original publisher. Copyright in those articles remains with the publisher. We do not reproduce full articles. If you own content indexed here and want it removed, see the takedown section below and it will be removed promptly.
Some material is drawn from Wikipedia and is available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 licence. Sources are listed on the Ledger page.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- scrape, mirror or bulk-download the site in a way that burdens it;
- present the content as your own or strip attribution;
- attempt to break, probe or interfere with the site or its hosting;
- use the site for anything unlawful.
No warranty and limitation of liability
The site is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. To the fullest extent permitted by law, an individual, as a personal project is not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential loss arising from your use of the site, including loss arising from reliance on inaccurate data.
Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
Copyright and takedown
We respect copyright. If you believe material on this site infringes your rights, email hoopspire77@gmail.com identifying the material, the page it appears on, and your rights in it. Valid claims are actioned promptly, usually by removing the item.
Changes and governing law
These terms may change; the date at the top will be updated. They are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, and disputes are subject to the courts of that jurisdiction.
