Last Updated: April 19, 2023

  • Welcome to GymBros, your premier destination for a gamified social fitness experience that's designed not just to enhance your workout routine but to connect you with a supportive community passionate about fitness. GymBros Inc. ("we," "us," or "our") proudly provides this innovative platform, accessible via the GymBros mobile application ("GymBros", "App"), website, and services (collectively referred to as the "Service"), headquartered in Quebec, Canada.
  • 1. Acceptance of Terms and ConditionsBy engaging with our Service in any capacity—whether that's creating an account, browsing our content, or actively participating in our community—you're affirming your acceptance of these Terms of Use ("Terms") alongside our Privacy Policy. It's important that you read these Terms carefully to understand your rights and responsibilities. If for any reason you find yourself unable to agree with these Terms, we must ask that you refrain from using the Service. Our goal is to foster a welcoming, empowering environment for all our users, and adherence to these Terms helps us ensure that GymBros remains a positive space for everyone involved. You acknowledge that the Service is not available to individuals younger than 13 years of age. Furthermore, if you have not reached the age of majority as defined within your jurisdiction, typically 18 years of age, it is required that your parent or legal guardian reviews these Terms and provides their explicit agreement on your behalf. By proceeding with the use of GymBros, you warrant that you satisfy the minimum age criterion and, where applicable, have procured the requisite consent from your parent or legal guardian. In the event of account registration, you undertake to supply information that is both truthful and exhaustive, including but not limited to your email, username, and password. The responsibility to safeguard the confidentiality of your account details and password rests solely with you, as does the liability for all activities conducted under your account. Should you represent an organization or entity, you declare that you possess the necessary authority to legally bind said organization to these Terms, including any future amendments thereto.
  • 2. Modifications to the Terms of UseGymBros expressly reserves the unilateral right to update, alter, or otherwise modify these Terms of Use at any given time, according to our sole discretion. The essence of such modifications may stem from our continuous efforts to improve the Service, respond to changing legal or operational requirements, or other reasons deemed necessary by us. Upon instituting any significant amendments to these Terms, we commit to providing you with appropriate notice, which may include direct communication or posting details of the changes within the Service itself. Where the law mandates, we will seek your explicit consent to the updated Terms. Your decision to continue accessing and using the Service subsequent to any such notifications or postings will be interpreted as your definitive acceptance of the updated or revised Terms. As a user of GymBros, you bear the responsibility to regularly review the Terms to ensure awareness of any modifications. Failure to review the posted Terms does not negate their binding effect upon you, provided that changes have been made available within the Service and adequate notice has been given. Should you find any updated Terms unacceptable, you are free to discontinue your use of the Service. Your continued engagement with the Service following the posting of changes will confirm your acceptance of those changes.
  • 3. Service Use and RestrictionsGymBros is designed to foster personal growth and community engagement within a non-commercial context. Accordingly, GymBros extends to you a limited, revocable, and non-exclusive license permitting access and use of the Service strictly for its designated purposes. This includes personal fitness tracking, participation in fitness-related social interactions, and the utilization of our content and resources aimed at achieving your fitness goals. It is imperative that your engagement with the Service adheres to these Terms. The scope of 'Intended Purposes' explicitly excludes any activities that could potentially disrupt the Service’s operation. This encompasses, but is not limited to, interference with our Service infrastructure, employing bots or any automated means to access the Service, and any other forms of misuse as detailed within our Prohibited Conduct guidelines. Your compliance with these specifications ensures a secure, constructive environment for all users.
  • 4. User Accounts and SecurityUpon registering for an account with GymBros, it is your obligation to furnish information that is both precise and comprehensive.

You bear the sole responsibility for safeguarding the confidentiality of your account credentials, including your password. Implementing robust password practices—such as the utilization of strong, unique passwords and routine updates—is strongly advised to fortify the security of your account. In the event of any unauthorized access or a security compromise pertaining to your account, immediate notification to GymBros is required. This enables us to take swift action to protect your account and the Service’s integrity.
