FORTA

Terms of Service

Last updated: 7 May 2026 · Effective: 7 May 2026

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of Forta (the "App"), a mobile application that calculates a daily Central Nervous System readiness score and surfaces training protocols based on it. By creating an account, downloading the App, or otherwise using the service, you ("you" or "User") agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

Read this before you train. Forta is a fitness information tool, not a medical device. The readiness scores and workout protocols are general guidance, not personalised medical advice. See Section 6 below before relying on the App's recommendations.

1. Who we are

The App is operated by the entity publishing it on the Apple App Store and Google Play under the name "Forta" (the "Operator", "we", "us", "our"). You can reach us at eurobiomechanics@gmail.com.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old to create an account. If you are between 16 and 18, you confirm that a parent or legal guardian has reviewed and accepted these Terms on your behalf. The App is intended for adult fitness use and is not designed for children.

3. Your account

You agree to provide accurate information at registration and to keep it current.
You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials and for all activity under your account.
One account per person. Sharing accounts is not permitted.
You may delete your account at any time from inside the App (Profile → Account → Delete account). Deletion permanently erases your check-ins, history, and preferences.

4. Subscriptions, free trial, and billing

Forta offers a free tier and a paid "Pro" tier. New accounts receive a 7-day free trial of Pro automatically.

Where you pay. All paid subscriptions are processed by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play). Forta does not collect or store your payment details directly.
Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Renewal is charged to your Apple or Google account at the same price unless we have notified you of a price change.
Free trial. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, the paid plan you selected (or the default plan) starts automatically. You can cancel anytime during the trial without charge.
How to cancel. Manage your subscription through your Apple ID subscription settings or Google Play subscription settings. The "Manage subscription" link inside the App takes you there.
Refunds. Refunds are governed by the Apple App Store Terms or the Google Play Terms, not by us. We cannot issue refunds directly. EU consumers may have additional rights under the Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU); to exercise the EU 14-day withdrawal right after purchase, contact Apple or Google support — but note that by starting to use the digital service during the withdrawal period, you may waive that right.
Deleting your account does not cancel your subscription. You must cancel separately on the App Store or Play Store.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the App.
Use the App to harm yourself or others, including by following protocols beyond your physical capability.
Submit false data with the intent to manipulate the readiness algorithm or exploit the service.
Resell, redistribute, or commercialise access to the App.
Use the App to violate any applicable law or regulation.

6. Health disclaimer

Forta is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. The readiness score, soreness map, and training protocols presented in the App are general fitness information based on self-reported inputs (sleep, energy, soreness). They are not a substitute for advice from a qualified physician, physiotherapist, or licensed medical professional.

Before starting any new training programme, increasing intensity, or following any protocol shown in the App, you should consult with a qualified medical or fitness professional, especially if you have any of the following:

An existing medical condition (cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, metabolic, neurological, or other)
An injury — recent or chronic
Pregnancy or post-partum status
Are taking medications that may affect exertion, heart rate, or recovery
Are over 65 years old or have not exercised regularly in the last 12 months

You acknowledge and agree that:

You participate in any exercise based on the App's recommendations entirely at your own risk.
The Operator does not warrant that the readiness score is medically accurate or that the protocols are appropriate for your specific physical condition.
If you experience pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, chest discomfort, or any other adverse symptom during exercise, you must stop immediately and seek medical attention.
You assume full responsibility for any injury, loss, or damage arising from your use of the App or attempts to perform exercises shown in it.

7. Intellectual property

The App, the Forta name and logo, the readiness scoring algorithm, the protocol library, all text, graphics, animations, and software are owned by the Operator or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other applicable laws. You receive a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the App solely for your own non-commercial fitness use. No other rights are granted.

You retain ownership of the data you submit to the App (sleep ratings, soreness selections, energy ratings). You grant the Operator a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to process this data solely to provide and improve the service.

8. Third-party services

The App relies on services from Google (Firebase, Authentication, Cloud Messaging), Apple (Sign in with Apple, in-app purchases), RevenueCat (subscription management), and YouTube (embedded protocol videos). Your use of those services is also governed by their own terms. We are not responsible for content or services provided by third parties.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Operator's total liability to you for any and all claims arising from or relating to the App shall not exceed the amount you paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or €50 if you are a non-paying user.

The Operator shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of data, personal injury, or property damage arising from your use of the App.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by our negligence; (b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or (c) any other liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law (including non-waivable consumer rights in the European Union).

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Operator and its officers, employees, and agents from any claim, demand, loss, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of: (i) your breach of these Terms; (ii) your misuse of the App; or (iii) your violation of any law or third-party right.

11. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the App, without notice, if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms or are using the App in a way that may cause harm to other users, the Operator, or third parties. You may stop using the App and delete your account at any time.

12. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you in-app and update the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the App after the change becomes effective constitutes acceptance of the new Terms.

13. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Portugal, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the App shall be brought before the competent courts of Lisbon, Portugal.

If you are an EU consumer, you also have the right to bring proceedings in the courts of the EU member state where you reside, and you may have access to the European Online Dispute Resolution platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.

14. Apple and Google specific terms

Apple App Store users. These Terms are between you and the Operator only — not Apple. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no warranty or liability obligation in respect of the App. Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms with respect to your licence to use the App, and Apple may enforce these Terms against you as if Apple were a party.

Google Play users. These Terms apply in addition to the Google Play Terms of Service. In the event of conflict, the Google Play Terms take precedence with respect to matters they specifically govern (such as billing).
