Terms
Terms for clubs
Last updated 19 October 2026
- You pay a monthly fee per active member, with a monthly minimum, by Direct Debit or card. Nothing else.
- Families pay by card into your club's own Stripe account. We never hold your money, and Stripe pays it into your bank.
- Your members' information stays yours. We only use it to run the service for you, and you can take it with you if you leave.
- You can leave at any time with a month's notice.
1. About these terms
These terms are between James Webster, a sole trader trading as Run The Club, c/o Trampoline Life, Sport@Kenton, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE3 3RU ("we", "us"), and the club using Run The Club ("you", "the club"). They apply from when your club's account is created. The person who accepts them confirms they're allowed to agree to them for the club.
These terms are for clubs. Families and gymnasts who use the app through a club are covered by that club's own terms and by our privacy policy.
2. The service
Run The Club is online software for running a club: bookings, payments, memberships, registers, members and the other features we list on our features page. Some features are switched on per club. We may improve, change or retire features. If we remove something your club relies on, we'll tell you at least 30 days before.
We aim to keep the service available all the time, but can't promise it will never be interrupted. We'll do planned maintenance outside club hours where we can.
3. Your account
- You choose who in your club has admin and coach access, and you're responsible for what they do in the app.
- Keep sign-in details private, and tell us straight away if you think someone has got into your account.
- Keep your club's details accurate, especially its email address and bank details.
4. Fees
You pay a monthly fee for each active member: a gymnast who, in that month, booked a session, attended one or held an active membership. There's a monthly minimum, which only applies in a month when you had at least one active member. A month with no active members costs nothing. Our current prices are on our pricing section.
We bill you at the start of each month for the month before, showing how many members were active. You pay by Direct Debit or card, which you set up when you join, and it's collected automatically. Prices are exclusive of VAT, which we'll add if we become VAT registered. We'll give you at least 30 days' notice of any price change.
If a bill is still unpaid 30 days after it's due, we'll remind you and may pause card payments for your club until it's paid. Everything else keeps working.
5. Taking payments
Families pay your club by card through Run The Club, using Stripe. To take card payments, your club needs its own Stripe account, connected to Run The Club from the app. You can connect one you already have, or set up a new one. Your Stripe account is covered by Stripe's own terms, which you agree with Stripe.
- You're the seller. Payments are made to your club's Stripe account and appear under your club's name. We never receive or hold your money.
- Card fees are charged by Stripe on your account, at your Stripe rate. We don't add to them.
- Payouts are made by Stripe from your account to your bank, on the schedule you set with Stripe.
- Refunds you give through the app are made from your Stripe account.
- Disputes and chargebacks are between your club, the family and Stripe. Stripe will contact you about them.
Until your Stripe account is connected, families can still pay with credit or cash. You set your own prices and are responsible for what you sell, your refund policy and dealing with families' complaints about your club. UK law doesn't allow surcharging families for paying by card.
6. Your members' information
You're the controller of the personal information your club keeps in Run The Club, and we're your processor. As your processor, we will:
- only use your information to provide the service to you, and on your instructions, which these terms and your use of the app are;
- make sure everyone at Run The Club who can access it is bound to keep it confidential;
- keep it secure, with the measures in our privacy policy;
- only use the other companies listed in our privacy policy, under contracts that protect the information as well as these terms do, and tell you at least 30 days before adding a new one so you can object;
- protect any transfer outside the UK with the safeguards UK law requires;
- help you answer requests from members exercising their rights, and with any data protection impact assessment;
- tell you without undue delay, and within 48 hours, after we become aware of a breach affecting your information;
- when you leave, give you a copy if you ask and then delete it, unless the law requires us to keep it;
- give you the information you need to show we're meeting these obligations.
The full wording is in our data processing agreement.
You're responsible for having a lawful reason to keep your members' information, telling them how it's used (your club's privacy notice), and only adding what you need. That includes health notes and safeguarding records.
We may use anonymous, combined figures that can't identify a club or a person, such as total bookings across all clubs, to improve the service.
7. Safeguarding
Run The Club gives you tools to record safeguarding concerns, incidents and staff documents. Your club remains responsible for safeguarding, for following British Gymnastics policy and for reporting concerns to the right people. The app doesn't replace your welfare officer or your policies.
8. Fair use
Don't use Run The Club to break the law, send messages people haven't agreed to receive, try to get into other clubs' information, or interfere with how the service runs. We can suspend an account that does, after telling you why, unless it's urgent.
9. Leaving
- You can leave at any time by emailing hello@runthe.club, with one month's notice.
- When you leave, we disconnect your Stripe account from Run The Club. Your Stripe account and its money stay yours. We send a final bill for the month you leave in.
- You can ask us for a full copy of your club's information, up to 30 days after you leave.
- We can end these terms with 3 months' notice, or straight away if your club seriously breaks them, doesn't pay what it owes after a reminder, or Stripe stops supporting your account.
10. Responsibility
We'll provide the service with reasonable care and skill. Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or anything else the law doesn't allow to be limited.
Otherwise, we aren't responsible for indirect losses, such as lost profits or lost opportunities, and our total liability to you in any 12 months is limited to the fees you paid us in those 12 months.
11. General
- We may update these terms. We'll give you at least 30 days' notice of changes that affect you, unless the law makes us change sooner. If you don't agree, you can leave before they take effect.
- Notices to us go to hello@runthe.club, and notices to you go to your club's email address in the app.
- These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales deal with any dispute.
