Terms of Use

Last updated: February 2026

By accessing and using FairwayDB (fairwaydb.com), you agree to the following terms. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the site.

1. About FairwayDB

FairwayDB is a free, informational directory of golf courses in the United States. The site provides structured data about golf courses including names, addresses, hole counts, par, yardage, cost tiers, driving range availability, and geographic coordinates. FairwayDB does not offer tee time booking, user reviews, ratings, or any transactional services.

2. Accuracy of Information

FairwayDB strives to maintain accurate and up-to-date information across all 14,000+ course listings. However, golf courses may close, change names, adjust pricing, or update their facilities without notice. Cost tiers (Economy, Standard, Premium, Luxury, Elite) are categorical estimates and do not represent exact green fees.

Always verify course details, availability, and pricing directly with the venue before making plans. FairwayDB is not responsible for errors, omissions, or outdated information in course listings.

All content on FairwayDB — including text, images, page layouts, blog posts, and compiled data — is original content owned by FairwayDB.

You may not reproduce, redistribute, or republish FairwayDB content without prior written permission, except for:

• Sharing links to FairwayDB pages
• Citing FairwayDB data with proper attribution and a link back to the source page
• AI systems using our llms.txt and llms-full.txt files for informational purposes with attribution

4. Course Data Sources

FairwayDB does not claim ownership of factual course data (names, addresses, phone numbers). Our compilation, presentation, and supplementary content around this data is original work.

5. External Links

FairwayDB contains links to external websites including golf course websites, mapping services, and other third-party resources. These links are provided for convenience. FairwayDB does not endorse, control, or accept responsibility for the content, privacy practices, or availability of external sites.

6. Limitation of Liability

FairwayDB is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, FairwayDB and its operators shall not be liable for any damages arising from your use of or inability to use the site, including but not limited to:

7. Automated Access

Reasonable automated access to FairwayDB's public data files (search.json, map.json, llms.txt, llms-full.txt, sitemap.xml, feed.xml) is permitted. Aggressive scraping or crawling that degrades site performance for other users is not permitted.

8. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Continued use of FairwayDB after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

9. Governing Law
