In force from 27 August 2026. Version 3.2.

1. Details of the Provider

Company name: Dataobjects Consulting Kft.
Registered seat: 2130 Szigetszentmiklós, Árnyas utca 14/a, Hungary
Company registration number: 13-09-141656
Tax number: 23006605-2-13
E-mail: mail@dataobjects.hu
Website: football-analytics.hu
Hosting provider: Tárhely.eu Szolgáltató Kft. (Hungary)

These Terms and Conditions (hereinafter: the T&C) govern the conditions for using the service named Football Analytics (hereinafter: the Service), which is operated by Dataobjects Consulting Kft. (hereinafter: the Provider) and made available on the website football-analytics.hu (hereinafter: the Website) exclusively online, as a digital service (software as a service — SaaS). The Service comprises digital content and a digital service only; it does not extend to the sale of any physical product. By registering on the Website and using the Service, the User accepts these T&C as binding.

2. Definitions

• User: the natural or legal person who registers on the Website and uses the Service.
• Consumer: a User who is a natural person acting outside the scope of their trade, self-employed occupation or business activity.
• Subscription / Plan: a service package announced by the Provider on the Pricing page in force at any given time, granting access of a defined scope in return for a fee.
• Content: all statistical model calculations, probability estimates, market (odds) comparison data, textual summaries and other analytical material displayed as part of the Service, together with the database serving them.
• Digital service / digital content: content or a service supplied other than on a tangible medium within the meaning of Section 6:159/A of the Hungarian Civil Code — in this case the functionality of the Service, accessible online through a browser.
• Group: the organisational unit of User(s) within the Service to which the Subscription (Plan) is attached; in the case of a multi-user Plan the Group comprises more than one User (member), and the holder of the Subscription is the Group itself, not the individual members.
• Quota: the quantified allowance attached to the Plan or the Group which entitles the holder to use the quota-bearing (analytical) functions of the Service. Its scope and rules of use are set out in Section 5 of these T&C.

3. Subject matter and nature of the Service; system requirements

The Service provides the User with probability estimates relating to football matches based on a statistical methodology (including, among others, a Dixon-Coles type bivariate Poisson model, team-strength estimation based on expected goals (xG), an ELO-based team-strength indicator, market-specific machine learning models, an ensemble model, isotonic calibration, and validation based on the Brier score and log loss), a statistical comparison of these estimates with publicly available market (bookmaker) odds, and the related match, team and market data refreshed by an automated data pipeline.

The Provider displays the effect of the individual steps of the estimation chain in the interface of the Service, and states the methodological limitations of back-testing results, including where a model component has been applied retrospectively to the period examined. The Provider nevertheless gives no warranty as to the accuracy of the estimates, and past back-testing results are no promise of future performance.

The minimum technical requirements on the User's side for using the Service are: an up-to-date browser that supports and permits JavaScript (for example one of the last few releases of Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge), a stable internet connection, and a network environment that does not block HTTPS encryption. The Provider does not guarantee that the Service will function on a device or in a browser that does not meet these requirements.

4. Conditions of use

1. Using the Service requires registration on the Website, providing genuine data that identify the User.
2. Only a natural person who has reached the age of 18 and has legal capacity, or a legal person, is entitled to use the Service. By registering, the User expressly declares that they have reached the age of 18.
3. The User is responsible for keeping the login credentials of their account confidential and for all activity carried out through their account.
4. A User may register only one user account, unless the Provider expressly consents otherwise in writing.
5. The Provider reserves the right to suspend or delete the account of any User who breaches these T&C or the law, or who engages in abusive conduct.
6. The Service is available without territorial restriction (geoblocking), on identical terms (including price) to any Consumer established or habitually resident in any Member State of the European Union; the Provider acts in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2018/302 on addressing unjustified geo-blocking within the internal market, irrespective of the fact that the language of the Service is Hungarian.
7. In addition to conventional registration with an e-mail address and password, the User may also sign in to the Service with their Google account, provided the Provider has activated this function; in that case the declarations as to age and single account under point 4 are deemed to have been made at the same time as the first sign-in with the Google account.
8. In the case of a multi-user Plan, the Subscription attaches to the Group and not to the individual Users; the number of Group members may vary within the upper limit determined by the Plan assigned to the Group at any given time. A new member may join the Group only by accepting an electronic invitation sent by an existing member of the Group; it is not possible to join an existing Group directly through the public registration interface of the Website.
9. A User leaving the Group does not terminate the User's own user account; the only effect is that the User's access to the Plan of that Group and to the Quota available through it ceases. The member entitled to manage the Group may, however, suspend a Group member's access, generate a new temporary password for the member's account, modify the member's display name and e-mail address, and also delete the member's account; the member entitled to manage the Group does not learn the member's earlier password. The new, temporary password generated by them is displayed to them so that they can pass it on to the member, and the member is required to change it at first sign-in. These operations are logged. The Provider accepts no liability for legal relationships within the Group or for decisions taken in that context.

5. Plans, fees and payment

1. The Provider may make the Service available free of charge and for a fee (by subscription). The content, scope (including the amount of the Quota) and fee of the paid Plans are set out on the Pricing page of the Website in force at any given time, which forms an inseparable annex to these T&C.
2. A paid Plan provides Quota for using the quota-bearing (analytical) functions of the Service. In the case of a Plan lasting several months, the Quota is available as a single combined allowance for the entire purchased validity period of the Plan — that is, it is not divided and does not restart on a calendar-month basis — and in the case of a multi-user Plan the members of the Group may use it freely among themselves at any time during the validity of the Plan, subject to the following restriction: the Provider is entitled to limit the usage attributable to a single User to a specified proportion (by default up to 50%) of the Group's total Quota, in order to ensure fair use among the members of the Group.
3. In order to allow the Service to be evaluated, the Provider grants Users (Groups) without a Plan a total of 20 (twenty) free trial analyses. The trial allowance may be used freely on any analysis function in the “Daily use” group of the Service (in particular: Match analysis, Bookmaker prices (formerly: Odds / Value), Player form (formerly: Player model), Starting line-up impact (formerly: Line-up impact), Daily slip, TOP 5 Analysis, Toto slip, Referee profile, Team statistics), on the understanding that every analysis actually executed — in the case of the Daily slip and the Toto slip, per match — consumes one unit of it. The trial allowance is one-off and lifetime-scoped: it does not renew per calendar period, and once exhausted the quota-bearing functions of the Service remain unavailable until the User (Group) purchases a paid Plan. In order to prevent abuse (repeated use of the trial allowance), the Provider records the fact that the trial allowance has been used — also after deletion of the account — in the form of an irreversible hash (SHA-256) of the e-mail address concerned; accordingly, deleting the account and subsequently registering again with the same e-mail address does not give entitlement to a new trial allowance. For the same reason, the Provider limits the number of registrations without a Plan per network (IP address): at most two accounts without a Plan may be created from the same network. This restriction does not apply to registrations that include a Plan. A detailed description of the data processed in this context — including the handling of the irreversible hash of the IP address — is set out in the Privacy Notice.
4. Exhaustion of the Quota does not affect access to the user account — the User can still sign in afterwards and can also use the functions that do not bear quota; only the initiation of new quota-bearing analytical queries is not possible until the Group purchases a new Plan or a quota top-up.
5. Certain functions may involve several individually quota-bearing analytical items within a single user action (in particular an analysis started for several matches at once via the “Daily slip”, the recommendation package compiled automatically each day under the name “TOP 5 Analysis”, or the function named “Toto slip”, which analyses the matches of the weekly Toto round together); in such cases the amount of Quota deducted equals the number of items actually analysed or viewed, and the entire operation is not counted as a single unit. In the case of the “TOP 5 Analysis”, the Provider deducts Quota only for those items appearing in the daily package which reach the reliability (confidence) threshold determined by the Provider; items below that threshold may be viewed within the package free of charge, without any Quota deduction. The Provider may modify the level of the threshold from time to time in order to improve the quality of the Service; this does not affect the general rules on the use of the Quota under these T&C. In the case of the “Toto slip” function, the amount of Quota deducted equals the number of actually analysable matches in the round — that is, those matches for which the Provider's system has assigned the appropriate database record to both teams — and may therefore be fewer than the total number of matches in the round (14). The Provider expressly displays the exact amount of the deduction in the interface before the operation is started, and the deduction takes place only after the User has expressly accepted it; where the Quota available to the User (Group) is insufficient to cover the operation, the Provider does not start the operation at all and does not apply any partial deduction in the case of the Toto slip and the TOP 5 Analysis. In the case of the Daily slip, a run started for several matches is accounted for match by match: the system processes the selected matches in sequence, and if the Quota runs out during the run, the deduction for the analyses already produced stands while the remaining matches are omitted; the interface reports this in itemised form at the end of the run. During selection the interface indicates if the available Quota is lower than the number of matches selected.
6. Where the same User, within the same calendar day and within the same analysis tool, submits a repeat query for the same unit of analysis — according to the unit of account of the given tool: the same match, team, competition-season pair or match official — the Provider does not deduct further Quota: following the first query actually charged, repeating it on that day is free of charge. In the case of the “Toto slip” function this benefit applies to the round as a whole: after the first query actually charged on that calendar day, the User may view the analysis of the round an unlimited number of times without any further Quota deduction. This applies separately to each tool — running the same match in a different analysis tool (in particular in “Match analysis”, the “Daily slip”, the “TOP 5 Analysis” and the “Toto slip”) counts as a separate, quota-bearing query, because it produces a different calculation and a report with different content. The benefit applies per User: an identical query submitted by another member of the Group counts as a separate query. The calendar day is understood according to the time of the Provider's system.
7. The unit of account for the function named “Team statistics” is one season of one competition: with a single query consuming 1 (one) unit, the User may view the aggregated indicators of every team playing in the selected competition in that season; the deduction is therefore not made per team. The deduction takes place when the query is started, and the Provider states the expected cost on the interface before it is started; merely selecting the competition and the season does not in itself involve any Quota deduction. For this function, the free repeat within the same day under this clause applies to the same competition-season pair.
8. The function named "Analysis generation" produces analyses, in a single operation, for the matches of the current day and the preceding day of the Daily Slip. For this function — unlike the Daily Slip and Toto — the deduction for the operation as a whole is 1 (one) unit, irrespective of how many match analyses are produced within it; the deduction is made when the run finishes, and is not made if no analysis at all was produced in the run. The function deducts no Quota for merely viewing the list. The function is not part of the trial allowance: it is available solely with an entitlement separately assigned to the Plan or to the Group.
9. Certain measurement and diagnostic functions of the Service — such as "Daily odds" and "Daily hit rate" — are not subject to Quota: viewing them consumes no Quota. Their availability is determined solely by the entitlement assigned to the Plan or to the Group; they are not part of the trial allowance, and the Provider does not assign them automatically to any Plan.
10. In addition to the Plans in force at any given time, the Provider may also offer Groups that have a valid Plan the option of purchasing a one-off quota top-up (“Extra quota”) attached solely to the Group's active Plan. A quota top-up does not create an independent Subscription: it applies only for the remaining validity period of the active Plan in force at the time of purchase, and it ceases — together with the Quota of that Plan — upon the expiry of the Plan to which it belongs.
11. Unused Quota — including any amount credited by way of a quota top-up — is lost upon the expiry of the validity period of the Plan, cannot be carried over to the next Subscription period, and, save for the case of the right of withdrawal under Section 6 of these T&C, is not refundable.
12. In the case of a multi-user Plan, any member of the Group is entitled to initiate the purchase, extension or modification of the Plan. The Provider does not examine the internal authorisation between the members of the Group or the approval of the purchase within the Group, and accepts no liability for disputes arising within the Group as a result.
13. Fees are expressed in Hungarian forint (HUF) and, unless indicated otherwise, include value added tax at the rate provided for by the legislation in force at any given time. The Provider reserves the right to modify prices in the future; such modification does not affect the fee of a Subscription already ordered, paid for and in progress, and applies only to subsequent orders.
14. The Provider determines the rate of value added tax (VAT) shown on the invoice on the basis of the billing country provided by the User and — in the case of a business (corporate) User — the EU VAT number provided, as follows. The invoice of a User established in Hungary is issued at the Hungarian VAT rate. The invoice of a business User established in another Member State of the European Union holding a valid EU VAT number is issued under the reverse charge mechanism, at 0% VAT. The invoice of a User established outside the European Union is likewise issued at 0% VAT, in accordance with the place-of-supply rules. The invoice of a Consumer (non-business User without a VAT number) established in another Member State of the European Union is issued at the Hungarian VAT rate for as long as the Provider has not activated the EU One Stop Shop scheme (OSS); if that scheme is activated, the invoice shows the rate applicable in the Member State of the Consumer's residence, and residence is established by comparing the billing address provided with the country estimated from the IP address as a second, corroborating item of evidence. The Provider stores the evidence used to establish VAT residence (the country provided, the IP address at the time of the order and the conclusion drawn from them) as set out in the Privacy Notice.
15. Following the registration of the order, Számlázz.hu (KBOSS.hu Kft.) automatically issues an electronic invoice and sends it to the e-mail address provided by the User. The fee may be paid by clicking the payment button in the invoice notification, by online card payment — through the Számlázz.hu payment interface, where the card transaction is processed by the payment service provider engaged by Számlázz.hu and independent of the Provider (Barion Payment Zrt., or OTP Mobil Kft. – SimplePay) — or by bank transfer. The Provider neither sees nor stores card details; these are handled solely within the system of the payment service provider. The Subscription is activated once the Provider's system has detected receipt of the payment; the Provider establishes the fact of payment by an automatic query against the Számlázz.hu system.
16. The Subscription runs for the fixed term selected at the time of ordering and indicated in the Plan (month, quarter, half-year or year), and upon the expiry of that term it terminates without any automatic charge or renewal. Expiry of the Subscription neither terminates nor suspends the user account — the User (and, in the case of a multi-user Plan, its other members) can still sign in after expiry; only the paid analytical functions (initiating new queries) become unavailable until the group starts a new Subscription. To extend the Subscription, the User must place a new order either before or after expiry. The Provider reserves the right to introduce an automatically renewing subscription arrangement in the future, subject to prior, express information to Users and to obtaining the consent required for this; until such an arrangement is introduced, this point governs.
17. The Provider confirms the recording of the order (clicking the button that starts the payment) by automatic e-mail, within 48 hours at the latest, in accordance with Section 6 of Act CVIII of 2001 on electronic commerce services (Ektv.); this confirmation is not the same as the notification of the actual activation of the payment or access, which is sent subsequently.
18. The Provider is under a statutory obligation to issue an invoice; invoicing takes place electronically on the basis of the billing details provided by the User, in accordance with the Online Invoice system of the Hungarian National Tax and Customs Administration (NAV).
19. In the event of an unsuccessful or omitted payment, the Provider is entitled to suspend paid access, or not to open it at all.

5/A. Referral programme

The Provider operates a referral programme, under which the User may share a personal referral link available on their Profile page. The following conditions apply to the referral programme:

1. The referrer becomes entitled to a credit if the Group of a User who registered through the referral link purchases a paid Plan for the first time. Renewal, a change of plan and use of the free trial allowance do not give rise to any entitlement.
2. The amount credited is equal to the quota of the "Extra quota" add-on plan with the smallest quota in the Provider's offering at the given time; if no such add-on plan is advertised, the credit is 1 analysis. The Service records the amount credited and the basis of that credit at the moment of crediting, and the referrer may view this subsequently on their Profile page — any later change in the Provider's offering does not affect a credit already granted.
3. A credit is due once only per referred User. The same User may refer several persons and is entitled to a separate credit after each such referral that meets the conditions.
4. The Extra quota credited may be used within the Service for analytical requests; it cannot be exchanged for money, cannot be transferred to another User or Group, and cannot be set off against the fee for the Service.
5. The general rules on the Quota set out in point 5 of these T&C — in particular the provisions on the period of use and on the fate of any unused allowance — apply mutatis mutandis to the Extra quota credited.
6. The Provider is entitled to refuse or to withdraw a credit where the entitlement arose as a result of manifestly abusive conduct (in particular, user conduct involving self-referral, referral of fictitious persons or the creation of multiple accounts).
7. On their Profile page the referrer sees only the amount credited, its basis and its time. The Provider also notifies the referrer of the credit by e-mail; that notification names the person referred by the display name given in their account (or, failing that, by their username).
8. The Provider reserves the right to amend or discontinue the referral programme for the future; this does not affect Extra quota already credited.

5/B. Favourites (digital notebook)

The "My favourites" (formerly "Favourites (notebook)") function of the Service allows the User to save an analysed match together with its results at that time, and to attach their own note to it. The following apply:

1. A saved entry is deleted automatically, without separate notification and without any separate request, upon the expiry of 7 days from the date of the match; where no known match date is associated with the entry, the time limit runs from the date of saving. The User may also delete their own entries at any time before that.
2. The function is not an archiving or data backup service. The Provider accepts no liability for the permanent retention of entries and is under no obligation to restore expired or deleted entries. If the User wishes to retain an entry permanently, they must make a copy of it on their own device.
3. The User is responsible for the content entered into the note field. The User undertakes not to enter into this field any unlawful content or content infringing the rights or legitimate interests of a third party and — having regard to the purpose of the field — no personal data, whether their own or that of a third party.
4. The act of saving does not in itself constitute an analytical request subject to the Quota; what is accounted for against the Quota is the analysis from which the entry was saved.

6. Right of withdrawal

Under Government Decree 45/2014 (II. 26.) on the detailed rules of contracts between a consumer and an undertaking, a Consumer is, as a general rule, entitled to withdraw from the contract within 14 days of ordering the Service without giving reasons. Since the Service qualifies as digital content or a digital service supplied other than on a tangible medium, the legislation lays down the following different rules for it.

1. If the User requests that the Service begin immediately (using the mandatory checkbox during checkout): once the order and the payment have been completed (in the case of a card payment, the successful transaction; in the case of a bank transfer, the Provider's approval of the transfer), the Provider begins performance without delay, and from that point the Consumer — consistently with their express, prior consent and their acknowledgement of the loss of the right of withdrawal — loses their 14-day right of withdrawal. The Provider logs the giving of that consent and acknowledgement together with the time of the order and the IP address (see the Privacy Notice).
2. For as long as performance has not actually begun — typically in the case of payment by bank transfer, during the period up to the approval of receipt — the Consumer has an unrestricted right of withdrawal without giving reasons. The Consumer may exercise this on the Website using the self-service “Withdrawal — cancel the order” button available on the page of a bank transfer order in progress (the online withdrawal function that has been mandatory under consumer protection legislation since 19 June 2026), and, in the case of any other payment method, via the Provider's e-mail address (mail@dataobjects.hu). In the event of such withdrawal, no fee is charged and no access is activated; any amount already paid but withdrawn before performance began is refunded by the Provider without delay, and in any event within 14 days.
3. In the case of a service extending over time (a subscription), if the Consumer requested that performance begin before the expiry of the 14-day deadline but nevertheless withdraws before the service has been performed in its entirety, the Consumer must pay the Provider the consideration proportionate to the service performed up to the time the withdrawal was communicated; if the service period has already elapsed in full, withdrawal is not possible.
4. If, in the course of the order process, the Provider does not request or does not receive the express declaration described above, the Consumer retains the statutory 14-day, unrestricted right of withdrawal.

7. Right of use (licence) — EULA

1. By ordering the Service, the User does not acquire ownership of the Service, of the Website's software, or of the Content available on it; the User acquires only the non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable right of use (licence) under this Section, for use of the Service as intended and within the scope of their Subscription.
2. Reverse engineering or decompilation of the Service, of the Website's software or of the underlying analytical logic and algorithms, and any attempt to extract the source code or the algorithms by any means, are prohibited, except where mandatory law expressly permits it.
3. The User is entitled to use the Service — to the extent corresponding to their Plan — for their own internal business purposes or, in the case of a legal person User or a multi-user Plan, for the internal business use of the users belonging to the Plan. Passing on, in bulk or on a regular basis, reselling the Content to third parties for consideration or free of charge, and providing any own service built on the Content that makes it available to third parties (for example an own API or data resale), are permitted only on the basis of a separate written agreement concluded with the Provider.
4. The right of use under this Section applies for the validity period of the Subscription; upon termination of the Subscription the right of use also ceases. This does not, however, affect the User's further use, for their own purposes, of notes and exports lawfully saved before termination.

8. Intellectual property and data sources

1. All Content available on the Website and within the Service (including the statistical models, their outputs, the textual summaries, the structured sports database, and the graphical and software elements of the Website) is protected by the copyright of the Provider or of its lawful licensors and — as regards the database developed in-house — by the so-called sui generis database-maker's protection under Act LXXVI of 1999 on copyright.
2. Extracting, downloading or copying the Content, or the structured database underlying it, by automated means (scraping, bots, bulk automated queries) without permission is prohibited. The User is entitled to access the Content solely by using the Website as intended, through the user interface; copying the Content in whole or in part by any other means, passing it on to third parties, making it public, or re-using it for commercial purposes without the Provider's prior written permission is prohibited.
3. The Provider obtains certain underlying statistical data of the Service (match, team, player and market data) through the public APIs of external data providers (in particular API-Sports / API-Football), stores (caches) them in its own database and provides analytical activity (added value) built on them — the Provider does not resell the raw data as such and does not compete with the providers of the data source. The club badges, competition emblems and player photographs appearing on the Website are the property of the sports organisations, federations and rights holders concerned; the Provider displays them solely for identification and information purposes.
4. As the underlying statistical data originate from third parties, the Provider accepts no liability for any inaccuracy, delay or incompleteness in them, or for any interruption of the Service resulting from an outage at the data source provider; the Provider supplies the Content on an “as is” basis and does not guarantee real-time, entirely error-free updating, unless the Plan contains an express, separate availability commitment (SLA) to that effect.

9. Availability of the Service, service levels, limitation of liability

1. The Provider acts with due care to ensure the continuous availability of the Service and endeavours to achieve high availability (available for the overwhelming majority of the calendar year); however, in the absence of a different SLA commitment tied to a specific Plan or agreement, it gives no contractual guarantee of uninterrupted and error-free operation, having regard among other things to possible delay, incompleteness or error in data originating from third parties (in particular the sports data provider).
2. The Provider gives advance notice of the timing of planned maintenance where this is reasonably possible; the User is not entitled to compensation for an interruption falling within planned maintenance, unless the Provider has expressly undertaken such an obligation within the Plan.
3. The Provider is not liable for any damage arising in connection with the temporary unavailability or maintenance of the Website, or with an outage in a third-party service (in particular the internet connection, the hosting service, the data source API or the payment service provider).
4. As set out in Section 3 of these T&C, the Provider excludes its liability for any damage arising from the User's use of the Content or from any decision based on it.
5. The above limitations do not affect the Provider's liability, which cannot be limited by law, for breach of contract caused intentionally or causing harm to human life, physical integrity or health.

10. Complaint handling and enforcement of rights

The User may report any complaint concerning the Service to the e-mail address mail@dataobjects.hu. The Provider investigates and answers the complaint within the deadline laid down in Act CLV of 1997 on consumer protection.

If a dispute between the Consumer and the Provider is not settled by direct negotiation, the Consumer is entitled

• to turn to the conciliation body (békéltető testület) competent for their domicile or place of residence;
• to use the European Commission's online dispute resolution platform (ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr) — given the online nature of the Service, which is also accessible across borders, this option is particularly relevant for Consumers established in another Member State of the European Union;
• or to bring proceedings before a court.

11. Miscellaneous provisions

1. These T&C are governed by Hungarian law, in particular by the provisions of Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code, Act CVIII of 2001 on electronic commerce services, Act CLV of 1997 on consumer protection, and Government Decree 45/2014 (II. 26.).
2. Where the User is habitually resident in another Member State of the European Union, the choice of law under this Section does not deprive the User of the protection afforded by those mandatory provisions of the law of the Member State of their residence which cannot be derogated from by contract.
3. The Provider reserves the right to amend these T&C unilaterally. The amended T&C enter into force upon publication on the Website; the Provider informs registered Users of any material amendment by e-mail.
4. These T&C are continuously available and downloadable, free of charge, on the Website (football-analytics.hu/aszf).
