The service

Pelota Libre is an independent editorial project offering sports information in English and Spanish. It is not affiliated with, associated with or endorsed by FIFA, UEFA, the NBA, the NFL, the ATP, the WTA, the ITF, MLB, or any club, league or media organization. It does not stream matches, offer restricted highlights or provide downloads of events.

Content and accuracy

Editorial content will be written by the site and will cite its sources in each article. This version includes templates and editorial slots, not published news. Scores, lineups and statistics will be shown only when an authorized data provider is connected and configured. Until then, score sections display a “data unavailable” notice. We do not invent results or statistics.

Permitted use

You may use the site for personal, informational purposes. You may not copy the content at scale in order to resell it, present the site as official to a league, use our marks in a misleading way, introduce malware, or attempt to access non-public areas.

Intellectual property

Original text, design and code created for Pelota Libre belong to its owner unless another licence is stated. Names, logos and marks of leagues, clubs and players belong to their owners. We do not use protected material without permission or a licence. If score data is added, it will be used under the provider's contract and terms, with any required attribution.

Advertising

The advertising boxes in this version are visual placeholders. If Google AdSense or other networks are enabled later, those ads are provided by third parties and are subject to their policies. The owner does not guarantee advertised products.

Disclaimer

Information is provided “as is”, without a warranty of accuracy, timeliness or continuous availability. It is not betting, financial or professional advice. The owner is not responsible for decisions made on the basis of the content, for hosting interruptions, or for errors in data supplied by an external provider.
