Terms of Service

1. Acceptance

By creating an account or using Pulse you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.

2. Operator

Pulse is operated by Rycon Mouton. For any questions about these terms, contact support@pulsecoach.online.

3. Not medical advice

Pulse provides general fitness, nutrition and recovery information generated from your inputs and from published training research. It is not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Consult a qualified physician before beginning any exercise or nutrition program, especially if you are pregnant, injured, or managing a medical condition. Stop immediately and seek medical attention if you experience pain, dizziness or chest discomfort.

4. Assumption of risk

Resistance training, maximal strength testing, athletic testing protocols, heat and cold exposure and dietary changes carry inherent risk of injury. You voluntarily accept those risks and are solely responsible for your technique, load selection, equipment safety and training environment.

5. Your account

You must be at least 16 years old and provide accurate profile information. Social features — direct messages, group chats and feed posts — are available only to accounts that confirm they are 16 or older. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure and for all activity under your account. The terms you accept inside the app are the same terms set out on this page.

6. Subscriptions and billing

Pulse is free to download and includes free features. Optional subscriptions unlock premium features. Subscriptions are billed through the Apple App Store or Google Play and renew automatically until cancelled. Manage or cancel renewal in your store account settings at least 24 hours before the period ends. Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their policies. Prices may change with notice; changes never apply retroactively to a period already paid for.

7. Acceptable use

• Do not upload content you do not have the right to upload.
• Do not upload video, photos or challenge evidence containing other people without their consent, and never upload sexual, violent, hateful or harassing content.
• Do not falsify challenge attempts, test results or leaderboard entries.
• Do not re-share, export or redistribute another athlete's posts, PR clips or progress photos outside the app without their permission.
• Do not attempt to access other users' data or bypass access controls.
• Do not resell, scrape or redistribute app content or AI output commercially.
• Do not circumvent fair-use limits on AI features.
• Do not use the app for any unlawful purpose.

You can report or block any athlete, post, comment or message. We may remove content or suspend accounts that breach these rules.

8. Your content and sharing

You retain ownership of the data, photos and videos you upload. You grant us a limited licence to store, compress, generate preview frames from and process that content solely to operate the features you use, including AI analysis you explicitly request.

When you post to your feed, send a shared item in chat, or export an image or PDF, you choose the audience. Anything shared with another athlete, or exported and posted elsewhere, may be kept or re-shared by them, and content posted to third-party social platforms is governed by those platforms' terms rather than ours.

9. AI output and fair use

AI-generated programs, warm-ups, form feedback and comparisons, meal-photo calorie and macronutrient estimates, photo comparisons and lab interpretations are automated estimates and may be inaccurate or incomplete. Meal-photo estimates in particular are approximations you should review and correct. Always apply your own judgement and professional guidance before acting on them. AI features are subject to daily fair-use limits that may change.

Content you submit to an AI feature is processed only to produce the response you asked for. It is not used to train Pulse models or third-party AI models. If an AI answer is unsafe, offensive or wrong, use “Report this answer” in the app and a person will review it.

10. Notifications and device features

Rest timers, alarms, voice prompts and push notifications depend on your device, its operating system settings, battery optimisation and network. We cannot guarantee that an alert will be delivered on time or at all, so do not rely on them for anything safety-critical.

11. Third-party integrations

Optional integrations such as Apple Health, Android Health Connect and public nutrition databases are provided by third parties. Their data may be incomplete or inaccurate, and they may change or withdraw access at any time.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Rycon Mouton, operating as Pulse, is not liable for any injury, loss, or indirect or consequential damages arising from use of the app. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid in the preceding twelve months. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer law that cannot be excluded.

13. Termination and deletion

You may stop using the app at any time. Delete your account in Settings → Privacy, or request deletion from our account and data deletion page. Deletion removes your profile, logs, measurements, photos, videos, posts and messages within 30 days, apart from records we must keep for legal, tax or fraud-prevention reasons. We may suspend accounts that breach these terms.

14. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as features change. Material changes will be reflected in the "last updated" date above, and continued use of the app after that date means you accept the revised terms.
