By submitting an application, creating an account, or using the Platform in any way, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree, you may not access or use the Platform.

OpenDates is a scheduling and coordination platform designed for collegiate athletic programs. The Platform enables authorized users to:
