Participation in the Program is subject to these Terms and Conditions (“Terms and Conditions”) and any other rules, regulations, policies and procedures of the Club. For the avoidance of doubt, the Terms of Service, *available here*, and Privacy Policy, *available here*, which are incorporated herein by reference, shall apply to and govern this website, the App, and the Program, and to the extent there is any conflict with either the *Terms of Service* and *Privacy Policy*, with respect to such conflicting terms, these Terms and Conditions shall control.
    2. Participation in the Program by any individual (individually and collectively, “you” or “Member”) constitutes consent to these Terms and Conditions. By participating in the Program you: (i) agree to be legally bound by these Terms and Conditions, (ii) acknowledge that you have read and understand these Terms and Conditions, and (iii) represent that you are at least eighteen years of age. If you do not wish to abide by these Terms and Conditions, then do not participate in the Program.
    3. We reserve the right to update or modify these Terms and Conditions at any time without prior notice to you by updating this page. Your participation in the Program following any such changes constitutes your agreement to follow and be bound by the Terms and Conditions as changed. For this reason, we encourage you to regularly review these Terms and Conditions.
  3. Program Enrollment.
    1. Except as otherwise provided in these Terms and Conditions, the Program is available to anyone who (i) downloads the App on their device and (ii) has a Ticketmaster account. In order to become a Member and begin accruing points in the Program, eligible individuals are required to (a) create a profile on the App and (b) link their active Ticketmaster account to their profile in the App.
    2. Use of the App may entail message, data and other charges from your mobile service provider. Subject to the provisions of Section 9 (Limitation of Liability), we are not responsible for any data charges or other costs associated with use of the App or participation in the Program. The App gives you on-the-go access to your current points balance and rewards. It also allows you to track your progress toward future rewards and to keep track of earned rewards and their expiration dates.
    3. You are solely responsible for maintaining the accuracy of your App profile information and for updating your profile information as required through the App. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate and that you will keep it accurate and up-to-date at all times. When you register, you will be asked to provide a password. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password, and you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your profile. If you believe that your profile is no longer secure, then you must immediately notify us by contacting customer service at loyalty@nycfc.com.
    4. A Member can only have a single profile on the App associated with a single email address and single Ticketmaster account. In the event of a dispute over the identity of the Member enrolled in the Program, the Member will be deemed to be the authorized account holder of the email address provided at the time the profile was created, as determined by us in our sole discretion.\
  4. Program Benefits.
    1. By maintaining a profile on the App, you can begin to earn points that you can redeem for various rewards (“Points”). You must be logged in with your profile on the App in order to earn Points. You can find a list of all the qualifying ways you can earn points on the “Earn” tab on the Program page in the App and *here* (examples may include: a daily loyalty bonus, attending a match, referring a friend to the Program). We reserve the right to update the ways you can earn points and the number of points that can be earned by each action in our sole discretion at any time without notice to you, including to remove or add any actions that can earn Points. Actions that earn Points can be one-time (e.g., download the App) or recurring (e.g., referring a friend). We recommend that you check the App from time to time to see the current ways to earn Points. Once you complete a qualifying action, within a reasonable time, the Points that you earn will be deposited into a Points balance on the App and you can view your current Points balance through the App at any time. Any unused Points in your Points balance at the end of the calendar year will automatically roll over to the subsequent year, provided that you only can have up to a maximum of 50,000 Points in your Points balance at any time. If you have 50,000 Points in your Points balance, completing any more qualifying activities will not earn you any more Points. Points cannot be transferred to any other individual, whether they are Members or non-Members. Points may not be used for any other purpose other than to redeem Rewards. We do not make Points available for purchase.
    2. To earn Points though actions that involve attending matches, you must hold the ticket for the match through the Ticketmaster account that is linked to your profile on the App, and you must scan that same ticket to attend the match.
    3. You can redeem Points for various rewards (“Rewards”). You can find a list of all the potential Rewards and the number of Points required for each Reward on the “Rewards” tab on the Program page on the App and *here* (examples may include: a discount on merchandise, free tickets to matches, ticket upgrades, autographed merchandise). We reserve the right to update the Rewards available and the number of Points required to redeem a Reward in our sole discretion at any time without notice to you, including to add or remove any Rewards. We recommend that you check the App from time to time to see the current available Rewards.
    4. Certain Rewards are only available in limited quantities on a “first-come, first-serve” basis or for a limited time, or in limited quantities for a limited time). If inventory of a Reward runs out, we have no obligation to make the same Reward available again. We are not required to make all Rewards available to all Members. Certain Rewards are only available to “City Members” of the Club. Any City Member status will be viewable in the App.
    5. In order to redeem a Reward, you are required to select it on the App. Specific instructions regarding each Reward are available in the App. Once you redeem a Reward, you will be notified by email whether you are required to take any additional steps to activate your Reward. Once you redeem a Reward in the App, the number of Points required for that Reward will automatically be deducted from your Points balance, even if the Reward is an experience that will occur at a later date or the Reward is for merchandise that you will collect at a later date. We reserve the right to place limits on the number of a certain Reward that you can redeem.
    6. If you believe that Points or a redeemed Reward were not properly applied or were improperly applied to your account, you should contact us at loyalty@nycfc.com. Your email must specify your name and email address associated with the Program, the date of the Program activity, and the issue(s) you encountered. We do not guarantee that we will debit or credit your account with any Points or Rewards.
    7. You can review prior Rewards that were redeemed through the “Transactions” tab on the Program page on the App.
    8. In the event you have redeemed Points for a Reward that is a physical item, once you have possession of the item, you can transfer it to any other individual in your sole discretion. In the event you have redeemed Points for a Reward that is an experience that requires attendance or participation by one or more individuals, you will be contacted by email to coordinate attendance or participation of the individuals. You are not required to attend or participate in the experience, even if you redeemed the Reward.
  5. Program Communications.
    1. By enrolling in the Program, you consent to receiving Program related e-mails, including Program marketing e-mails. We also may give you the option to opt-in to receive other marketing communications from us at the time of enrollment.
    2. You may opt-out of receiving Program-related emails (including Program marketing emails) at any time by following the instructions provided in the email and as otherwise provided in the *Privacy Policy*. If you opt-out of Program-related emails, you will no longer receive emails regarding your Program status or the Program rewards or benefits that may be available to you and this information will only be available through the App or by contacting us at loyalty@nycfc.com. If you do not want to receive any communications from the Club, please request a termination of your Program membership and App account and cease participating in the Program.

Continued participation in the Program following posting of updated or modified Terms and Conditions constitutes your acceptance of those Terms as updated and modified.
    2. We reserve the right to exclude you from or to discontinue your participation in the Program and to audit your membership account at any time, in our sole discretion.
