Fitness Forge Terms of Service

Effective date: August 20, 2026

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are a legal agreement between you and Andrew Towse ("Fitness Forge", "we", "us", or "our"), the operator of the Fitness Forge iOS application (the "App"). These Terms are the end-user license agreement (EULA) for the App and apply in place of Apple's standard EULA.

By creating an account or using the App, you agree to these Terms, to our Privacy Policy, and to our Community Guidelines, both of which are incorporated into these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

1. Eligibility and your account

You must be at least 13 years old to use the App. We collect your date of birth at signup to verify this.
You must provide accurate account information and keep it up to date.
You are responsible for all activity that happens under your account and for keeping your login credentials secure. Tell us promptly at [email protected] if you believe your account has been compromised.

2. License to use the App

We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Terms of Service. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, reverse engineer, or attempt to extract the source code of the App, except where the law permits it despite this restriction.

3. Your content

The App lets you create and share content, such as workouts, workout sessions, and profile information ("Your Content").

You own Your Content. These Terms do not transfer ownership of anything you create.
License to us. So that we can operate the App, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display, and distribute Your Content, solely for the purpose of operating and improving the App. This includes showing workouts you make public to other users, showing your workouts to people you approve as followers, and showing a workout or session to anyone who holds a share link you created for it.
Ending the license. The license ends when you delete Your Content or your account, except for content that has been anonymized and disassociated from your identity as described in our Privacy Policy, and residual backup copies that are removed within 30 days.
Your responsibility. You are solely responsible for Your Content, including making sure you have the right to post it and that it complies with these Terms and the Community Guidelines. Be careful with share links: anyone who has the link can view the shared workout or session, and links do not expire automatically.

4. Acceptable use and zero tolerance for objectionable content

You must follow our Community Guidelines, which describe what may not be posted on Fitness Forge. In short, you may not post content that is unlawful, hateful, harassing, sexually explicit, violent, deceptive, infringing, or otherwise objectionable, and you may not use the App to abuse other users, send spam, impersonate others, or interfere with the service.

We have zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users. We may remove any content and suspend or terminate any account at any time, without prior notice, if we believe these Terms or the Community Guidelines have been violated. The App provides tools to report content and users and to block other users; we review reports of objectionable content and act on them within 24 hours, including removing the content and ejecting the user who provided it where appropriate.

5. Subscriptions and purchases

The App offers an optional premium subscription that unlocks additional features.

Billing through Apple. Subscriptions are purchased through your Apple account, and all billing is handled by Apple. The price is shown in the App and in the App Store before you buy.
Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends.
Cancelling. You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time in your device's Settings under your Apple account's Subscriptions, or through the App Store. Deleting the App does not cancel a subscription.
Refunds. Because Apple handles all payments, refunds are handled by Apple under the App Store's terms, and we cannot issue refunds directly. To request a refund, use Apple's refund process at https://reportaproblem.apple.com.
Changes. We may change the features included in a subscription or its price. If a price change affects an existing subscription, Apple will notify you and, where required, ask for your consent before charging the new price.

6. Health and safety disclaimer

Fitness Forge is a fitness tracking tool. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it is not a substitute for professional medical advice.

Consult a physician or qualified health professional before starting any exercise program, especially if you have a medical condition, are pregnant, or have not exercised recently.
Exercise carries inherent risks, including the risk of injury. You use the App, and perform any workout tracked or shared through it, at your own risk and within your own limits.
Stop exercising immediately and seek medical attention if you feel pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or other concerning symptoms.
Workouts shared by other users are created by those users, not by us. We do not verify that any workout is safe, effective, or appropriate for you.

7. Termination

By you. You may stop using the App at any time and may delete your account from inside the App's Settings, as described in our Privacy Policy.
By us. We may suspend or terminate your access to the App if you violate these Terms or the Community Guidelines, if we are required to by law, or if we discontinue the App. Where reasonable, we will give you notice.
Effect. On termination, your license to use the App ends. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive (including Sections 3, 6, 8, 9, 10, and 12) survive termination.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

The App is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that data will never be lost. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of the App. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for all claims relating to the App will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us through the App in the 12 months before the claim arose, and (b) USD $50. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from Your Content, your use of the App, or your violation of these Terms, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

11. Apple-specific terms

Because the App is distributed through Apple's App Store, the following additional terms apply:

These Terms are between you and us only, not with Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content.
Our license to you is limited to a non-transferable license to use the App on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the App Store Terms of Service.
Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support for the App.
If the App fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price of the App (if any) to you. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App.
Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the App, including product liability claims, claims that the App fails to conform to legal or regulatory requirements, and claims under consumer protection or similar laws.
If a third party claims the App infringes their intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, are responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of the claim.
You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

12. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. This does not deprive you of any protection you have under the mandatory consumer protection laws of the country or state where you live.

13. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you in the App or by email before the changes take effect and update the effective date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the App after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.
