Terms of Service
The agreement between you and Own Your Coaching. Written to be read, not skipped.
Effective date: September 6, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Own Your Coaching ("Own Your Coaching," "we," "us," or "our") covering your use of ownyourcoaching.com and everything on it (the "Service").
By creating an account, subscribing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
Your privacy is covered separately in our Privacy Policy, which is part of this agreement.
Health and safety — read this first
Own Your Coaching is not a healthcare provider, and nothing in the Service is medical advice.
We give general information and software tools. We do not diagnose, treat, or prevent any condition. The meal plans, calorie and protein targets, workouts, and progress tools are educational. They are not a prescription and they are not supervised by a clinician.
Talk to your doctor or another qualified healthcare provider before starting this or any meal plan, workout plan, or supplement, and before making a significant change to what you eat or how you train. This matters especially if you are pregnant or nursing, are under 18, take any medication, have or have had an eating disorder, or have any condition that food or exercise affects — including heart conditions, diabetes, high or low blood pressure, and injury.
Stop and seek medical help if you feel faint, dizzy, short of breath, or unwell, or if you have chest pain, during or after anything you do with this Service.
You use the Service at your own risk, and you are responsible for deciding whether any plan it produces is right for you. If your doctor tells you something different from what the Service says, follow your doctor.
If you are struggling with food or your body: in the US you can reach the National Alliance for Eating Disorders helpline at 1-866-662-1235, or call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Please use them. They are free and confidential.
What the Service is, and what it is not
Own Your Coaching is self-coaching software. It builds meal plans and workouts from numbers you give it, keeps track of what you log, and adjusts as your numbers change.
There is no coach. No person reviews, approves, or supervises your plan. Nothing in the Service creates a coaching, medical, therapeutic, or professional relationship between you and us or between you and anyone else.
We may add, change, or remove features. We will not knowingly remove something you are paying for without telling you.
Who can use it
- You must be 18 or older to create an account and subscribe.
- You must be able to enter a binding contract and not be barred from doing so under applicable law.
- One account per person. Do not share your login.
- You are responsible for what happens under your account, and for keeping your password secure. Tell us promptly if you think someone else has access.
Subscription, billing, and cancellation
The Service is a paid subscription at $49.99 per month. There are no tiers and no add-ons.
It renews by itself
Your subscription renews automatically each month and your payment method is charged each month until you cancel. That is how it works unless you turn it off.
Cancelling
You can cancel at any time from your account settings. Cancelling stops the next charge; it does not refund the month you are in. You keep access until the end of the period you have already paid for.
Refunds
Payments are non-refundable except where the law requires otherwise, or where we decide to issue a refund at our discretion. If something has gone wrong, write to us at ownyourcoaching@yahoo.com and we will look at it properly. (REVIEW: confirm whether to publish a fixed money-back window instead of discretion.)
Price changes
We may change the price. If we do, we will tell you by email before it takes effect, and the new price applies from your next renewal. If you do not want to pay it, cancel before that date.
Payments
Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not receive or store your full card number. Failed or reversed payments may result in your access being suspended until the balance is settled.
Taxes
Prices exclude any sales tax or VAT that may apply, which is added where required.
Nutrition and training numbers are estimates
Calories, protein, carbohydrate, fat, and fibre shown in the Service are estimates. They come from public food databases (including the USDA FoodData Central and Open Food Facts), from package labels, and from figures you enter yourself.
- Brands reformulate, and labels are allowed a margin of error. The same food can differ from the number we show.
- Portion cues such as a palm of protein are deliberately approximate.
- Barcode lookups return whatever the database holds for that product, which is contributed data and can be wrong or out of date.
- Calorie and protein targets are calculated from formulas that estimate an average. They are a starting point to adjust from, not a measurement of your body.
Check the label on the food in your hand before you rely on a number, especially if you have an allergy. Allergen flags in the Service are a convenience, not a substitute for reading packaging.
Your content
You keep ownership of everything you put into the Service: your logs, weights, measurements, photos, notes, custom meals, and saved plans.
You give us permission to store, copy, and display that content only so far as we need to in order to run the Service for you — for example, saving your meal plan so it is there tomorrow, or backing up the database. We do not sell it, and we do not use it in marketing without asking you first.
You are responsible for the content you upload, and for having the right to upload it. Do not upload anything unlawful, or anything containing another person's private information without their permission.
Our content
The Service, its software, design, text, and the plans it generates are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by copyright and other laws.
We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the Service for your own use while your subscription is active. You may print or save your own plans for your own use.
You may not:
- Copy, resell, sublicense, or redistribute the Service or the plans it generates.
- Use it to run a coaching business, or to produce plans for clients or anyone other than yourself.
- Scrape, crawl, or bulk-extract data from it, or use it to train a machine learning model.
- Reverse engineer it, or try to get around any limit, paywall, or security measure.
- Upload malware, attack the Service, or interfere with anyone else using it.
- Impersonate anyone, or use the Service unlawfully or to harass another person.
If you want to use Own Your Coaching with clients, that is a different product. Write to us.
Affiliate links and other companies
The grocery list can link to products on Amazon. As an Amazon Associate, Own Your Coaching earns from qualifying purchases. Some links are affiliate links, at no extra cost to you. We are not paid to feature a particular brand in a plan, and an affiliate link does not change what the Service recommends.
We are not responsible for third-party websites, products, or prices. What you buy from another company is between you and them, under their terms.
Availability
We work to keep the Service up, but we do not promise it will be uninterrupted or error-free. It may be unavailable for maintenance, updates, or reasons outside our control.
Keep your own copy of anything you cannot afford to lose. You can print or save your plans at any time.
Disclaimer of warranties
Please read this part.
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.
We do not warrant that the Service will meet your requirements, that it will be accurate or complete, or that using it will produce any particular result — including any particular change in weight, body composition, strength, or health.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, Own Your Coaching and its owners and staff are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or personal injury, arising out of your use of the Service.
Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the event that gave rise to the claim.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so parts of this section may not apply to you. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law. (REVIEW.)
Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Own Your Coaching and its owners and staff from claims, damages, and reasonable legal costs arising from your misuse of the Service, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of anyone else's rights.
Suspending or ending an account
You can close your account at any time from your settings, or by writing to us. See the Privacy Policy for what happens to your data afterwards.
We may suspend or end access if you break these Terms, if your payment fails, or if we are required to by law. Where it is reasonable to do so, we will tell you first and give you a chance to put it right.
The sections on your content, our content, disclaimers, liability, indemnity, and governing law survive the end of this agreement.
Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. If a change is material, we will tell you by email or in the app before it takes effect. Continuing to use the Service after that means you accept the new Terms. The effective date at the top always says which version you are reading.
Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of [STATE], United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be brought in the state or federal courts located in [COUNTY, STATE], and you and we consent to that jurisdiction.
(REVIEW: fill in the state and county, and decide whether to add an arbitration clause and a class action waiver. Both are common in US consumer subscriptions and both have consequences worth taking advice on before publishing.)
Odds and ends
- If a court finds part of these Terms unenforceable, the rest stays in force.
- Not enforcing a term once does not waive it.
- You may not transfer this agreement. We may transfer it as part of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
- These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between us about the Service.
