Terms of Use

Last updated August 15, 2026

What this is

WNY Hockey is a free, independent directory of hockey rinks, organizations, coaches, businesses, camps and events in Western New York and the Rochester, NY area. It is not affiliated with USA Hockey, the NHL, the Buffalo Sabres, or any team or league it lists, unless a listing specifically says otherwise.

This is a plain-language summary, not a substitute for legal advice. Have a lawyer review this before relying on it for anything high-stakes.

Accuracy of listings

We verify new listings against at least two independent sources before publishing, and we correct known errors when they're reported. Even so, details like hours, prices, phone numbers and schedules change — always confirm directly with the organization before making plans around anything on this site, especially payment or travel.

If you run a listing and it's wrong, use "Report a problem" on that listing or email us — corrections are handled by a person, typically within two business days.

User submissions

If you submit a claim, community post, marketplace listing, or report, you're responsible for what you submit being accurate and not violating anyone else's rights. We review submissions before anything goes live and can decline or remove anything that's false, abusive, spam, or otherwise inappropriate.

Don't post anything here you don't have the right to post — this includes photos, contact information for people who haven't agreed to be listed, or anything defamatory or harassing.

No liability for third parties

We list independent rinks, businesses, coaches and organizations. We don't run them, employ their staff, or control their programs, pricing or safety practices. Any dealings you have with a listed organization — registering for a camp, hiring a coach, buying from a shop — are between you and them.

Changes

We can update these terms as the site changes. If you keep using the site after an update, that means you're OK with the current version.

Questions about these terms, or anything else about the site: use the "Report a problem" link, or reach out through the contact details on the site.
