Terms of Service

Effective Date: June 4, 2026
Last Updated: October 27, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Dean Dominguez ("we," "us," "our"), the developer of Training Blocks (the "App"). By downloading, installing, or using the App you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

1. Eligibility

To use Training Blocks you must:

  • Be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher).
  • Have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement.
  • Agree to Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement, which governs your use of any App Store application alongside these Terms.

If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, your parent or legal guardian must accept these Terms on your behalf.

2. License

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on Apple devices you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial use, in accordance with these Terms and the Apple EULA.

We retain all right, title, and interest in the App, including all intellectual property. No rights are granted to you except as expressly stated here.

3. Your Account

  • You are responsible for keeping your credentials secure.
  • You must provide accurate registration information.
  • You are responsible for all activity under your account.
  • Notify us immediately at support@training-blocks.com if you suspect unauthorized access.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the App, except to the extent expressly permitted by law.
  • Use the App to build a competing product or to train any machine learning model.
  • Automate, scrape, or abuse the App's APIs or rate limits.
  • Resell, sublicense, lease, or otherwise commercialize access to the App.
  • Use the App for any unlawful purpose or to harass, abuse, or harm others.
  • Bypass authentication, attempt to access another user's account, or interfere with the App's security.
  • Misrepresent the source of content generated by or shared with the App.

We may suspend or terminate your access for violations.

5. Your Content

You retain ownership of the data you put into the App: your profile, your workouts, your notes, your chat messages.

By using the App you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, process, transmit, and display your content solely to:

  • Operate and provide the App's features (plan generation, coaching, analytics).
  • Send your content to the AI provider (Anthropic) to generate responses.
  • Debug, secure, and improve the App.
  • Comply with legal obligations.

This license ends when you delete your content or your account. Account deletion is immediate and permanent, as described in our Privacy Policy.

You represent that you have the right to share any content you upload (for example, you own the Strava account you connect).

6. AI-Generated Content

The App uses large language models to generate training plans, classifications, and coaching responses.

  • AI output is generated, not curated. It may be wrong, incomplete, or inconsistent.
  • Plans and chat responses are suggestions, not orders.
  • We do not guarantee any specific performance outcome, race time, or training adaptation.
  • You are responsible for evaluating whether any suggestion fits your situation.
  • You use the App's AI features at your own risk. AI technologies have known and unknown limitations and can make mistakes. Always apply common sense and good judgment before acting on any AI-generated recommendation, and make sure it is safe and appropriate for your current fitness, health, and skill level.
  • If an AI-generated recommendation seems unsafe, painful, or inappropriate for you, do not follow it. When in doubt, consult a qualified coach or physician.

7. Medical Disclaimer

Training Blocks is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice.

  • The App is for general fitness and educational purposes only.
  • Nothing in the App is intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition.
  • Consult a licensed physician before starting any new training program, especially if you have a heart condition, are pregnant, are recovering from injury, take medication, or have any other medical concern.
  • If you experience chest pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or any symptoms during or after exercise, stop and seek medical attention immediately.
  • Heart rate, HRV, and sleep data displayed in the App are not clinical-grade measurements.
  • You use Training Blocks at your own risk.

You assume full responsibility for your training decisions and any consequences arising from them.

7.1 Assumption of Risk & Release

Running and physical training carry inherent risks, including the risk of injury, illness, or in rare cases death. By using the App and following any plan, workout, or recommendation, you knowingly and voluntarily assume all such risks.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you release and discharge Dean Dominguez and any contractors or vendors acting on our behalf (the "Released Parties") from any and all liability, claims, and demands arising out of or connected to your athletic activities or your use of the App, and you agree not to sue the Released Parties for any injury, damage, or loss associated with that use. This release does not apply to liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law (for example, liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence where such exclusion is prohibited).

7.2 Location & Safety

The App may display routes and location-derived data imported from connected services (e.g., Strava GPS streams). You are responsible for your own safety and situational awareness while training. Do not rely on the App for navigation, hazard avoidance, or emergency assistance. The App is not an emergency service and cannot summon help. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.

8. Subscriptions

The App may offer auto-renewing subscriptions purchased through Apple's In-App Purchase. Where a subscription is offered:

  • Pricing, billing period, and included features are shown at the point of purchase.
  • Subscriptions auto-renew at the end of each billing period unless canceled at least 24 hours before renewal.
  • Manage or cancel via your Apple ID account settings (Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions on iOS).
  • Refunds are handled by Apple per its refund policy. We do not issue refunds outside Apple's policy.
  • Free trials, where offered, convert to a paid subscription automatically unless canceled before the trial ends.

Price changes. We may change subscription prices. A new price applies to new subscribers from the time it is published. For existing subscribers, a price change applies only with notice, per Apple's subscription terms and price-change process.

9. Third-Party Services

The App integrates with third-party services (Strava, Apple HealthKit, Anthropic, Supabase, Railway, Sentry). Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party content, availability, or outages.

10. Termination

  • You may stop using the App at any time and delete your account in Settings.
  • We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, if we are required to by law, or if continued operation is impractical.
  • Upon termination, your right to use the App ends. Sections that by their nature should survive (ownership, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, governing law) will survive.

11. Disclaimers

The App is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any defect will be corrected.

Some jurisdictions do not allow exclusion of certain warranties; in those jurisdictions our disclaimer applies to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Experimental and early-access features. From time to time the App may include experimental or early-access features. These are provided on an "as is" basis, may contain errors or change without notice, and may be modified or removed at any time. Use of experimental features is at your own risk.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law:

  • We will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost data, or personal injury, arising from your use of the App.
  • Our total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the App will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or (b) US $50.

These limits apply even if we were advised of the possibility of such damages and even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Dean Dominguez, the App, and any contractors or vendors acting on our behalf from any claim, loss, liability, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of (a) your use of the App, (b) your violation of these Terms, (c) your violation of any third party's rights, or (d) any content you submit.

14. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, United States, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles.

  • We will try to resolve disputes informally first. Email support@training-blocks.com with the subject "Dispute" and a description of the issue. We will respond within 30 days.
  • If informal resolution fails, disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Denver County, Colorado, and you and we consent to personal jurisdiction there.
  • Both parties waive any right to a jury trial to the extent permitted by law.
  • Class actions are not permitted; disputes must be brought individually.
  • Time limit. Any claim arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms must be brought within one (1) year after the claim arose; otherwise it is permanently barred, except where applicable law prohibits such a limitation.

If you are an EU/UK consumer, mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence may grant you additional rights that override the choices above.

15. Apple-Specific Terms

You acknowledge that these Terms are between you and us, not between you and Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. However:

  • Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
  • Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App.
  • If the App fails to conform to any warranty, you may notify Apple, which will refund the App's purchase price (if any). To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation.
  • Apple is not responsible for any claims relating to the App, including product liability, regulatory non-compliance, or consumer protection claims.

16. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated by:

  • In-app notice on next launch, and/or
  • Email to your account address

The "Last Updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the App after changes take effect means you accept the revised Terms. If you do not accept the changes, stop using the App and delete your account.

17. Severability & Entire Agreement

If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. These Terms (together with the Privacy Policy and the Apple EULA) are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App and supersede any prior agreements.
