Last Updated: March 25, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By downloading, installing, or using Forge.OS ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App. These Terms form a legally binding agreement between you and Heavy C Development Studio, LLC ("we", "us", "our").
2. Health & Fitness Disclaimer
Forge.OS is a workout tracking and organization tool — it is not a medical device, and nothing in the App constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
- All workout suggestions, progression recommendations, rep/weight targets, and deload calculations are generated algorithmically for informational purposes only
- You should consult a qualified healthcare professional before beginning any exercise program, particularly if you have pre-existing medical conditions, injuries, or health concerns
- Training involves inherent physical risks including, but not limited to, muscle strain, joint injury, and cardiovascular stress
- Always use proper form, warm up adequately, and train within your actual current capacity — not merely what the App suggests
- Stop exercising immediately and seek medical attention if you experience chest pain, dizziness, severe shortness of breath, or any unusual symptoms
- We make no representations that any workout plan, exercise, or progression strategy within the App is appropriate for your individual fitness level, health status, or goals
3. Assumption of Risk & Release of Liability
You acknowledge that physical fitness activities and strength training carry inherent risks. By using the App, you voluntarily assume all risks associated with physical exercise, including the risk of injury or death. You agree not to hold Heavy C Development Studio, LLC, its owners, officers, employees, or affiliates liable for any injury, illness, death, property damage, or other harm arising from your use of the App or reliance on any information provided therein.

- In no event shall Heavy C Development Studio, LLC be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of data, loss of profits, or loss of goodwill
- Our total aggregate liability to you shall not exceed the amount you paid for any App subscription in the 12 months preceding the claim
