Last updated 16 October 2026. These terms describe the current early release.
Independent project
Touchline is an independent football gaming journal and planning workspace. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Electronic Arts. Game names and trademarks belong to their owners. Original fictional artwork does not imply a real player or club endorsement.
Guides and tool results
Coaching ideas are hypotheses and review methods, not guaranteed improvements or verified descriptions of hidden game mechanics. Illustrative examples are not current objectives, pack disclosures or prices. Check exact requirements, controls and item details in your game.
Tool outputs depend on what you enter. The squad helper uses a stated heuristic, not official chemistry calculations. The conceptual pitches do not simulate player AI. The price notebook is manual. Probability examples depend on their assumptions and do not guarantee outcomes or profit.
Your data and responsibilities
Never enter EA credentials, payment details or another person's private information. Only select clips and content you are entitled to use. Keep your own backups of records you want to retain. Browser storage can be cleared or unavailable, and it does not automatically sync.
Review exported files and shared links before distributing them. Report links are encoded, not encrypted, and remain readable to people with the link and site access. See the privacy policy for details and removal limits.
Reasonable use
Do not use the site to attempt unauthorised access, misrepresent the project as an official EA service, or distribute content that infringes someone else's rights. The tools do not automate gameplay, trade coins or access an EA account.
Availability and feedback
This early release may change as the project develops. Features and local records are not guaranteed to remain available. If you find a bug or misleading statement, use the contact process and include enough detail to inspect it. The report download does not submit a message.
A verified public operator contact has not been configured. During this early release, use your existing contact channel for the publisher. These release terms are not a claim that every jurisdiction's public-launch requirements have been completed.
