Intellectual Property Notice

FanRink is an independent fan platform

FanRink is an independent, fan-operated social network for ice hockey supporters. We are not affiliated with, sponsored by, endorsed by, or officially connected to any of the teams, leagues, organisations, or governing bodies referenced on this platform.

This includes but is not limited to: the NHL, EIHL, KHL, SHL, DEL, PWHL, AIHL, and all member clubs, franchises, and associated organisations worldwide.

Fan-managed profiles

All team and league profile pages on FanRink are fan-managed community spaces by default. Unless a profile carries a verified Official ✓ badge, it has not been created, approved, or endorsed by the organisation it represents. It is created and managed by fans, for fans — in the same spirit as a fan forum, fan Twitter account, or fan website.

Teams and organisations wishing to claim and verify their official profile should contact supportteam@fanrink.com. Official profiles are clearly badged and give the rights holder full control over their profile content.

Third-party trademarks

All team names, league names, logos, crests, colours, mascots, and related marks displayed on FanRink are the intellectual property of their respective owners. Their appearance on FanRink does not imply any affiliation with or endorsement by those rights holders.

Team logos where displayed are used solely to identify teams in a fan community context — the same way a newspaper, broadcaster, or fan site would use them.

Match data and statistics

Game schedules, scores, and results on FanRink are factual sporting data sourced from public data providers. Factual sporting data is not subject to copyright. We do not reproduce any proprietary broadcast content, match commentary, or official league publications.
