Terms of use.

The site uses AI tools to assist drafting, research organization, data enrichment, and production. AI assistance does not guarantee accuracy, completeness, or fitness for a particular decision.

AI-assisted editorial material is identified on the affected article. Human review status is stated separately and is not implied by an AI notice. Parent Coach Desk remains responsible for material it publishes. See AI transparency.

By using parentcoachdesk.com you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

United States scope. Parent Coach Desk is published primarily for a United States audience. The public informational site remains accessible elsewhere. Parent Coach Desk does not directly sell goods or paid subscriptions on this site; third-party newsletter and affiliate providers control their own eligibility, availability, and transaction terms.

The site itself is open to anyone. Interactive features, meaning a review, a comment, a camp submission or correction, or a newsletter signup, require you to be at least 13 years old. If you are a parent or guardian acting on behalf of a child under 13, you are the one using the feature and the one responsible for what gets submitted under your name or email.

When you submit a review, comment, or similar content to this site, you keep ownership of what you wrote. You grant Parent Coach Desk a license that is perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, and non-exclusive to display, reproduce, edit for length and clarity, excerpt, moderate, and remove that content, in whole or in part, on the site and in related promotional material.

We do not sell your review or comment to a third party, and we do not license it to an advertiser. By submitting, you confirm the content describes your own first-hand experience, that you have the right to share it, that it does not contain private information about anyone else, especially a child, and that it was not written in exchange for undisclosed compensation from a camp, program, or brand.

Camp and program listings come from public sources, camp operators, and reader submissions. We review submissions before they publish, but we do not inspect camps, verify their safety practices, or endorse them. A listing is not a recommendation; vet any camp yourself before you send your kid.

Review and camp-claiming features carry their own verification, moderation, and privacy controls and may not be open on every listing yet. Where they are open, the license and the review rules above are what govern them. Readers and camp operators can also use our correction and removal request form at any time.

Photos. By uploading photos you confirm you own them and have written consent from a parent or guardian for any child shown. We remove photos on request from a parent or guardian of a child pictured: email support@parentcoachdesk.com.

First-party search-demand logging is currently disabled. If it is enabled after its retention and review controls pass, we may record a shortened, automatically redacted search phrase, result count, broad content collection, sport, age band, and timestamp. We do not store a raw IP address, referrer, browser or user-agent string in that dataset, and we do not tie it to an email address or account.

The purpose is to understand unmet parent and coach questions and decide what to improve or write. We do not sell this data or share it with advertisers. Do not put names, contact details, health details, or other personal information into search.

Beyond the review rules above, do not use this site to harass, threaten, or defame another person, impersonate any person or organization, post another person's personal information without their consent, scrape or bulk-copy the directory or site content for a competing product or database, break the law, access data or admin systems you are not authorized to see, introduce malware, or interfere with the site's normal operation.

We can suspend or end your access to interactive features, meaning reviews, comments, the newsletter, or submission forms, at any time and for any reason, including a violation of these terms. You can stop using the site at any time. Ownership, the license you granted us, the disclaimers, the liability limits, and the indemnification below all continue to apply after your access ends.

The site is provided as-is. We work to keep information accurate and we post corrections when we get something wrong, but we make no warranty that any page is complete, current, or fit for your situation. Costs change, rules change, camps close.

To the fullest extent the law allows, Parent Coach Desk and its writers are not liable for damages arising from your use of the site, the directory, a review you read, or anything you buy through links on it. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limits, so parts of this may not apply to you.
