Terms of Service

Last updated: May 4, 2026

1. Scope and Contract Formation

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern the use of Coach Vita ("the Service"), a personal training tracker and AI coaching application available as a web application and mobile app for iOS and Android. The Service is operated by Martin Eliason, Berlin, Germany ("we", "us", or "the Operator").

By creating an account and using Coach Vita, you ("the User") agree to be bound by these Terms. The contract between you and the Operator is formed upon successful completion of account registration.

These Terms apply exclusively. Any conflicting terms of the User shall not apply unless expressly agreed to in writing by the Operator.

2. Service Description

Coach Vita provides the following features:

  • Workout and training session logging
  • Training program management and creation
  • Progress tracking with charts, statistics, and personal records
  • AI-powered coaching assistant ("Coach Vita")
  • Recovery and readiness tracking from wearable devices
  • Push notifications for workout reminders and coaching nudges
  • Optional integrations with third-party fitness services (Apple Health, Google Health Connect, Garmin, WHOOP, Strava, Withings)

The Service is available as a web application at www.coach-vita.com and as a mobile app for iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play Store).

3. Subscription and Payment

Coach Vita is a subscription-based service. Access to the full Service requires an active paid subscription.

  • Subscription plans: Available plans and pricing are displayed in the app before purchase. Subscriptions are billed on a recurring basis (monthly or annually, depending on the plan selected).
  • Payment processing: Payments are processed through Apple (App Store) or Google (Play Store) depending on your platform. The Operator does not directly collect or store your payment information.
  • Auto-renewal: Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the renewal date.
  • Cancellation: You can cancel your subscription at any time through your Apple ID or Google Play account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period — you retain access to the Service until then.
  • Refunds: Refund requests are handled by Apple or Google in accordance with their respective refund policies.
  • Free trial: If a free trial is offered, it converts to a paid subscription at the end of the trial period unless cancelled beforehand.

4. Right of Withdrawal (Widerrufsrecht)

Widerrufsbelehrung

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period expires 14 days after the day on which the contract is concluded.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, you must inform us of your decision to withdraw from this contract by an unequivocal statement (e.g., an email sent to support@coach-vita.com).

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Effects of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse all payments received from you without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction.

Consent to Early Performance and Loss of Withdrawal Right

By starting to use the Service (accessing features beyond account creation), you expressly consent to the Operator beginning performance of the digital service before the withdrawal period has expired, in accordance with § 356 Abs. 5 BGB.

You acknowledge that by giving this consent, you lose your right of withdrawal once the Operator has fully provided the digital service. For ongoing subscription services, the withdrawal right is lost for the current billing period once the service has been fully provided for that period.

Note: For subscriptions purchased through Apple App Store or Google Play Store, the withdrawal and refund process is additionally subject to the respective platform's terms. You may also contact Apple or Google directly for refund requests.

5. Account and Access

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.

Each account is personal and non-transferable. You may not share your account credentials with third parties.

6. AI Coaching Feature

Disclaimer

Coach Vita includes an AI-powered coaching assistant. This feature is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute medical, health, or professional fitness advice.

The AI assistant uses artificial intelligence (powered by Anthropic's Claude) to provide training suggestions, answer fitness questions, and help create workout programs. While we strive for accuracy, AI-generated content may contain errors or be inappropriate for your individual circumstances.

  • Not a substitute for professional advice: Always consult a qualified healthcare provider, physician, or certified fitness professional before starting any new exercise program, especially if you have pre-existing medical conditions.
  • No liability for AI output: The Operator is not responsible for actions taken based on AI-generated suggestions. You use the AI coaching feature at your own risk.
  • Health data processing: Conversations with the AI assistant may include your workout data and health metrics to provide personalized coaching. See our Privacy Policy for details on how this data is handled.

7. User Obligations

When using Coach Vita, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate information during registration
  • Use the Service only for its intended purpose of personal fitness tracking and coaching
  • Not attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or its infrastructure
  • Not use automated tools to access the Service (scraping, bots, etc.)
  • Not misuse the AI coaching feature (e.g., attempting to extract harmful content)
  • Comply with applicable laws when using the Service

Violation of these obligations may result in immediate suspension or termination of your account.

8. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its design, code, and branding, is the intellectual property of the Operator. You may not copy, modify, or distribute any part of the Service without prior written consent.

Your workout data, training logs, and personal content remain your property. By using the Service, you grant us a limited right to store and process this data solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you.

9. Liability

The Operator's liability is governed as follows:

  • Unlimited liability: The Operator is fully liable for damages caused by intent (Vorsatz) or gross negligence (grobe Fahrlässigkeit), as well as for injury to life, body, or health.
  • Material contractual obligations: In cases of slight negligence (leichte Fahrlässigkeit), the Operator is liable only for breach of material contractual obligations (wesentliche Vertragspflichten / Kardinalpflichten). In such cases, liability is limited to foreseeable, typically occurring damages.
  • Exclusion: Liability for slight negligence beyond the above cases is excluded.

The above limitations also apply in favor of the Operator's employees, representatives, and agents.

Mandatory statutory liability (e.g., under the German Product Liability Act / Produkthaftungsgesetz) remains unaffected.

10. Availability and Warranty

We aim to keep Coach Vita available at all times but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. Planned and unplanned maintenance, technical issues, or force majeure events may cause temporary downtime.

Warranty claims for defects (Gewährleistung) are governed by the statutory provisions of German law. If the Service does not conform to the contract, you are entitled to the remedies provided under §§ 327a ff. BGB (digital products).

11. Data Protection

The collection and processing of your personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy, which forms an integral part of these Terms. By using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the Privacy Policy.

12. Third-Party Integrations

Coach Vita offers optional integrations with third-party services (Apple Health, Google Health Connect, Garmin, WHOOP, Strava, Withings). These integrations are subject to the respective third party's terms of service and privacy policies.

The Operator is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or conduct of third-party services. You connect third-party accounts at your own discretion and may disconnect them at any time in your account settings.

13. Termination

You may cancel your subscription at any time through your Apple ID or Google Play account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. You may also delete your account at any time in the app under Profile > Delete Account.

The Operator may terminate or suspend your account immediately in cases of material breach of these Terms. The Operator may also discontinue the Service with reasonable notice (at least 30 days).

Upon account deletion, your personal data will be deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy. You may request an export of your data before it is deleted (see Privacy Policy, Right to Data Portability).

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you via email or through the app at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Continued use of the Service after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you may terminate your account before the changes take effect.

15. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

If you are a consumer (Verbraucher) within the European Union, you also enjoy the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which you are resident. Nothing in these Terms affects your rights as a consumer under applicable local law.

16. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid provision that most closely reflects the economic intent of the original provision.

17. Consumer Dispute Resolution

In accordance with § 36 of the German Consumer Dispute Resolution Act (Verbraucherstreitbeilegungsgesetz — VSBG), we inform you that we are neither obligated nor willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution (ODR): https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr
