Legal
Terms of Service
The agreement that governs your use of Altus — including training plans, wellness tracking, and every other feature in the app.
Use Altus responsibly. Training plans and wellness tools are for personal tracking only — not medical advice. Exercise and medication decisions are yours; consult qualified professionals. Subscriptions auto-renew through your app store.
Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using the Altus mobile application, website, or related services (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”) in their entirety. If you do not agree, you may not use the Services.
Age requirement
You must be at least 18 years of age, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, to use the Services. If you do not meet this requirement, you may not access or use Altus.
Use of Services
(a) Account registration
Certain features require account registration. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to keep your credentials secure. You are responsible for all activity conducted through your account.
(b) User responsibilities
You agree to use the Services in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and to refrain from prohibited conduct, including unauthorized access, interference with the Services, or misuse of features intended for personal, non-commercial use.
Run Tab & Training Plans
Altus offers a “Run” tab that generates training plans based on information you provide, such as goals, schedule, experience level, and training history. Plans may also be adjusted when you indicate that you missed a session, sustained an injury, or are ill.
Not medical advice — Altus is not a doctor
Altus is not a physician, doctor, licensed healthcare provider, or medical professional. Any training plan, schedule adjustment, or recommendation for easing back into a program — including suggestions made when you report injury, illness, or missed workouts — is based on general fitness assumptions and algorithmic logic. Such recommendations are not medical advice, clinical guidance, or a substitute for evaluation by a qualified healthcare provider.
(a) Assumptive recommendations
Run tab plans and adaptations are informational fitness tools only. They do not account for your full medical history, current diagnoses, medications, or individual risk factors. Recommendations for returning to training after injury or illness are assumptions that should be taken with appropriate caution and professional oversight.
(b) Your obligations
- Consult a licensed physician or qualified healthcare professional before beginning, resuming, or modifying any exercise program — especially after injury, illness, surgery, or a prolonged absence from training.
- Stop exercising and seek medical attention if you experience pain, dizziness, chest discomfort, or any symptom that concerns you.
- You are solely responsible for deciding whether to follow, modify, or disregard any plan or adaptation suggested by the Run tab.
(c) No liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Altus disclaims all liability for injuries, illness, aggravation of existing conditions, or any adverse outcomes arising from your use of Run tab plans or adaptations, including reliance on suggestions made after you report injury, sickness, or missed sessions.
Wellness & Protocols (Nutrition Tab)
The Nutrition tab includes a Wellness & Protocols area where you may manually log vitamins, supplements, insulin reminders, injections, and related entries. This feature is a personal tracking tool only.
Critical disclaimer — read carefully
Altus is not a doctor, physician, pharmacist, endocrinologist, nurse, or any licensed healthcare provider. Wellness & Protocols is manual tracking only. It does not provide, and Altus will not provide, medical advice, prescription guidance, dosing instructions, injection guidance, treatment plans, or clinical recommendations of any kind.
(a) Tracking only — not medical advice
The Wellness & Protocols feature allows you to record information you choose to enter. Altus does not validate, verify, interpret, or act upon that information as a healthcare provider would. Display of your entries does not constitute endorsement, approval, or medical direction regarding any substance, dose, schedule, or protocol — including vitamins, insulin, prescription medications, or injectable compounds (such as those used by individuals who track anabolic steroid or other injection protocols).
Altus does not and will not suggest medical advice regarding what to take, how much to take, when to inject, where to inject, or whether any protocol is safe or appropriate for you.
(b) Not a medication or injection reminder system
Reminders and logs within Wellness & Protocols are convenience features only. They must not be relied upon as your sole or primary reminder system for medications, insulin, injections, or any other health-related regimen. Notification delivery may be delayed, disabled, or fail due to device settings, connectivity, operating system restrictions, or other factors outside our control. You remain fully responsible for adherence to any regimen prescribed or recommended by your healthcare providers.
(c) Consult healthcare professionals
You must consult qualified healthcare professionals — including your physician, endocrinologist, pharmacist, or other licensed provider — for all decisions regarding medications, insulin management, injections, supplements, and health protocols. Do not use Altus as a substitute for professional medical care, diagnosis, or treatment.
(d) User responsibility and assumption of risk
- You are solely responsible for the accuracy, completeness, and legality of information you enter.
- You voluntarily use Wellness & Protocols at your own risk and acknowledge that Altus has no duty to monitor, correct, or intervene in your health-related decisions.
- Altus does not endorse, promote, encourage, or facilitate the use of any substance, medication, or injection protocol. Tracking capability does not imply medical approval or safety.
(e) Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Altus and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from or related to your use of Wellness & Protocols, including but not limited to:
- Missed, late, or incorrect doses or injections
- Adverse reactions, side effects, or health complications
- Reliance on reminders, logs, or displayed entries
- Any health outcome, injury, or loss of any kind
You agree to release and hold harmless Altus from any claims arising from your use of this feature or from health decisions made with or without reference to data stored in the app.
