Terms of Service — Zor

Effective date: 7 July 2026
Last updated: 7 July 2026

These terms are the agreement between you and Zor ("the app", "we", "us") for using the Zor strength-training app and website. We have tried to write them in plain language, because terms you can actually read protect both of us. The short version is at the top; the details follow.

The service is operated under the name Zor; you can contact us about these terms, or send any legal notice, at support@zor.training.

---

The short version

• Zor gives you training information and tools, not medical advice. Talk to a doctor before you start, especially if you have a health condition.
• Lifting weights carries real risk of injury. You choose what to lift and how hard to push. The app's suggested weights and effort targets are calculated from your own logged data — they are suggestions, not a promise that a weight is safe for you today.
• Stop if something hurts. No app is worth an injury.
• The base app is free today. Paid upgrades (AI coaching, human-coach seats) are planned; the billing terms below only apply once they exist.
• Your training data is yours. We only use it to run the app for you — see the privacy policy.
• Be a normal, honest user of the app and we'll get along fine.

1. Accepting these terms

By creating an account or using Zor, you agree to these terms and to the privacy policy, which explains how we handle your data. If you do not agree, do not use the app.

2. Who can use Zor

• You must be at least 18 years old to create an account.
• You must be able to form a binding contract where you live.
• You must not have been previously banned from the service.

3. Your account

• Give us accurate information and keep it up to date — the app's training guidance is computed from what you enter.
• Keep your password to yourself. Your account is for you personally; you are responsible for what happens under it. Tell us at support@zor.training if you think someone else has access.
• You can delete your account at any time in the app (Settings → Account → Delete account) — deletion is immediate and permanent. See the account deletion page.

4. Health and safety — read this section

This is the most important section of these terms.

Zor is not medical advice

Zor provides general fitness and training information for informational and educational purposes only. It is not medical advice, it is not a medical device, and it is not a substitute for the advice of a physician, physiotherapist, or other qualified health professional. Nothing in the app — programs, suggested weights, effort (RPE) targets, recovery scores, or any other guidance — is a diagnosis, treatment, or prescription.

Talk to a doctor before you start

Consult a physician before beginning this or any exercise program. This matters especially if any of the following applies to you — these mirror the standard pre-exercise screening (PAR-Q) questions:

• a heart condition, or you've been told you should only do physician-approved physical activity;
• chest pain during physical activity, or at rest;
• episodes of dizziness, loss of balance, or loss of consciousness;
• a bone, joint, muscle, or tendon problem that could be made worse by exercise;
• prescribed medication for blood pressure or a heart condition;
• pregnancy or recent childbirth;
• a recent injury or surgery, or any other medical reason to be careful with physical activity.

If you answered yes to any of these, get medical clearance first. If your health changes while you use Zor, stop and get checked before continuing.

You train at your own risk

Resistance training has inherent risks — including muscle and tendon injuries, joint injuries, dropped weights, and in rare cases serious injury or death — that no app can eliminate. By using Zor you knowingly and voluntarily accept these risks.

Be clear about how the app works, because it defines where responsibility sits:

• You choose the exercises, the loads, and how hard to push. The app records what you did and suggests what you might do; the decision — and the barbell — is always yours.
• Suggested weights and RPE targets are estimates computed from your own logged training data. They are only as good as the data you enter, they cannot see your form, your fatigue that day, your sleep, or your injuries, and they are not a guarantee that a given weight is safe or appropriate for you. Treat every suggestion as a starting point to check against how you actually feel.
• When the app has been offline, suggestions can be stale. Zor works without a connection, but guidance computed before your recent training synced may not reflect it. Apply extra judgment.
• Use proper equipment and technique. Train with collars, safety pins/arms or a spotter where appropriate (especially on barbell squat and bench press), and do not attempt maximal lifts alone.

Stop if it hurts

If you feel pain, dizziness, faintness, shortness of breath, chest pain, or anything that feels wrong, stop training immediately and seek medical advice. In an emergency, call your local emergency number. Do not train through pain because a program, a suggested weight, or a coach told you to.

No guarantee of results

Training outcomes vary enormously with genetics, effort, consistency, sleep, nutrition, and much else. We do not promise that you will gain muscle, gain strength, lose weight, or achieve any particular result from using Zor — anyone who promises that is lying to you.

5. The service

Zor is a science-based strength-training app: structured training programs (your own, app-generated, or — when the feature launches — coach-assigned), workout logging, and recovery and training-load tracking.

• The base experience is free — self-coached programs, logging, and the recovery dashboard.
• The app works offline. Workouts and check-ins you log without a connection are stored on your device and synced to our servers when you are back online.
• The service will change. We add, improve, and occasionally remove features. If we ever discontinue the service entirely or remove something significant you rely on, we will give you reasonable notice in the app so you can export your data first.

6. Subscriptions and paid features

Not yet in effect. Zor currently has no paid features and no in-app purchases. This section describes the planned paid tiers and applies only if and when they launch; prices and billing details will be published in the app and on this page before then.

Planned paid upgrades, both optional layers on top of the free base app:

• AI coaching subscription — a subscription paid by you, unlocking intelligent automatic adjustment of your program. Pricing will be announced at launch.
• Coach seats — purchased by coaches (not clients), in bundles of 5 client seats, to coach clients through Zor. Pricing will be announced at launch.

When these launch, the following standard terms will apply:

• Billing through the app stores. Purchases made in the iOS app are billed by Apple through your Apple account and are also subject to Apple's terms; purchases in the Android app are billed by Google Play, likewise. We never see or store your card details.
• Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends.
• Cancelling. Manage or cancel in your device's subscription settings (iOS: Settings → your name → Subscriptions; Android: Play Store → Subscriptions) — deleting the app does not cancel a subscription. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period.
• Refunds for store-billed purchases are handled by Apple or Google under their policies; request them through the store. Where consumer law gives you additional refund rights, those are unaffected.
• Price changes will be notified in advance and will apply from your next renewal, with the chance to cancel first.
• Cancelling a paid tier never deletes your data or your free-tier access — you keep your programs, history, and dashboard.

7. Your license to use Zor, and the rules

We give you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app for your own training (and, if you are a coach with active seats, for coaching your clients). In return, you agree not to:

• copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the service, or reverse-engineer or extract source code except where the law expressly permits it;
• access the service by any means other than the app and interfaces we provide (no scraping, bots, or bulk/automated access), or probe, overload, or interfere with our systems;
• use the service to build a competing dataset or train a model on our content;
• misrepresent who you are, share or resell your account, or use another person's account;
• enter deliberately false training data to manipulate the service (your own guidance quality aside, it can distort systems others rely on — e.g. a coach's view of a client);
• use the service for anything unlawful.

We may suspend or terminate accounts that break these rules (see Termination).

8. Your content and your data

• Your training data is yours. Everything you enter or generate in Zor — logged sets, check-ins, bodyweight, programs you author, custom exercises — belongs to you.
• You give us a limited license to store, process, and display that data solely to operate and improve the service for you — showing you your history, computing your recovery and guidance, syncing across your devices, and (only if you link one) sharing it with your coach. This license is not for advertising, not for resale, and it ends when you delete your data or your account, as described in the privacy policy.
• You are responsible for what you enter — name custom exercises like an adult; don't put other people's personal data or anything unlawful in free-text fields.
• How we collect, store, and delete data is governed by the privacy policy; if these terms and the privacy policy ever conflict about data handling, the privacy policy wins.

9. Coaching features (coach–client terms)

Not yet in effect. The human-coach feature is planned but has not yet launched. This section applies from the day it does.

When the coaching feature launches:

For clients:

• Linking with a coach requires your explicit consent in the app, and the consent is all-or-nothing: a linked coach can see all of your training and wellness data in Zor — your complete workout history (every logged set), check-ins, soreness ratings, recovery metrics, and training-load trends. There is no partial sharing. If you are not comfortable with that, do not link a coach.
• Programs your coach assigns are managed by the coach — you can view and train them, but only the coach can edit them. Your own self-created programs stay fully editable by you.
• You can unlink your coach at any time, which ends their access to your data going forward.
• Your coach is not us. Coaches on Zor are independent professionals (or amateurs — we do not certify them). We provide the platform; we are not responsible for a coach's programming decisions, advice, conduct, or qualifications, and a coach is not our employee or agent. Section 4 (Health and safety) applies fully to coach-assigned training: if a coach's program hurts, stop.

For coaches:

• You may only access and use a client's data for coaching that client. Keep it confidential; do not export, share, sell, or use it for any other purpose. When a client unlinks (or you do), your access ends.
• Your coaching advice is your own professional responsibility, including any legal or certification requirements that apply to you where you practice. You are not employed or endorsed by Zor.
• Coach seats are a paid feature purchased by you (see Subscriptions and paid features); each active client link consumes a seat.

10. Intellectual property

The app, the website, the Zor name and brand, the design, the software, and the training-science content and methodology in the product are ours or our licensors', and are protected by intellectual-property law. These terms give you the right to use them (Section 7), not to own or reproduce them. Your data remains yours (Section 8).

If you send us feedback or suggestions, we can use them freely without obligation to you — that's what makes it safe for us to read them.

11. Termination

• You can stop using Zor at any time, and can delete your account (and all of its data) in the app, immediately — see the account deletion page.
• We can suspend or terminate your account if you materially breach these terms (with notice and a chance to fix it where that's reasonable — no notice where the breach is serious, e.g. abuse of other users' data or our systems), or if we are required to by law. If we terminate without your breach, we will give you reasonable notice and the chance to export your data.
• On termination, your license under Section 7 ends. Sections that by their nature should survive (4, 8, 10, 12–15) survive.

12. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED — INCLUDING FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, MERCHANTABILITY, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT — TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. We do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that guidance will be accurate or suitable for you (see Section 4), or that data will never be lost — keep your own records of anything critical. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions; where that's the case, this section applies to the fullest extent it lawfully can.

13. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE — AND OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE IS CAPPED AT THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE, OR (B) USD 50.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited — including liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, and your statutory consumer rights.

14. Indemnity

If your breach of these terms, your misuse of the service, or (for coaches) your coaching of clients causes a third party to bring a claim against us, you agree to cover the losses and reasonable costs we incur from that claim. This does not apply to the extent the claim results from our own breach or negligence.

15. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes — except that if you are a consumer, you keep any right to sue (and be sued) in the courts of the country you live in, and any mandatory consumer protections of that country.

Before going to court, email us at support@zor.training — almost everything can be sorted out faster and cheaper that way.

16. App store terms (Apple and Google)

If you downloaded Zor from the Apple App Store or Google Play:

• These terms are between you and us, not with Apple or Google. The stores are not parties to these terms, are not responsible for the app or its content, and have no obligation to provide maintenance or support for it — support comes from us (see Contact).
• Apple and Google (and their subsidiaries) are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you after you accept.
• Your use must also comply with the store's own terms, including the App Store Terms of Use and the Google Play Terms of Service, and (on iOS) the Usage Rules in Apple's Media Services terms.
• In the event of a claim relating to the app — including product-liability claims, legal-compliance claims, or intellectual-property claims — we, not the store, are responsible for handling it, to the extent required by the store's terms. Any App Store refund handling by Apple is limited to refunding the purchase price (if any); Apple has no other warranty obligation.
• You represent that you are not in a country under a U.S. government embargo and are not on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

17. Changes to these terms

If we change these terms, we will update the "Last updated" date and — for material changes (anything about payments, your data, liability, or the health-and-safety terms) — tell you in the app before the change takes effect, with enough notice to stop using the service or delete your account if you don't agree. Continuing to use Zor after the effective date means you accept the new terms.

18. General

• These terms plus the privacy policy are the entire agreement between you and us about the service.
• If part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest still applies.
• If we don't enforce a provision right away, we haven't waived it.
• You may not transfer your rights under these terms to anyone else. We may transfer ours as part of a merger, acquisition, or sale of the business — your protections travel with them.
