# Waiver, Release, and Assumption of Risk

> **DRAFT — NOT LEGAL ADVICE.** This template is a starting point only. Before Peakward is
> shown to anyone outside a closed test group, a lawyer licensed in your operating
> jurisdiction (and ideally reviewed for the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand)
> must review and adapt it. Enforceability of liability waivers varies by country and by
> state/province, and some jurisdictions will not enforce a release of liability for
> negligence at all.

## 1. Nature of the service

Peakward ("the Service") provides general educational information and automatically generated
exercise programming. The Service does **not** provide medical advice, physical therapy,
diagnosis, or treatment, and no coach–client or practitioner–patient relationship is created
by using it.

## 2. Assumption of risk

Physical exercise carries inherent risks, including but not limited to muscle strains,
sprains, joint injury, disc injury, fractures, cardiac events, heat illness, and in rare
cases serious injury or death. I understand these risks, I choose to participate
voluntarily, and I accept full responsibility for them.

## 3. Medical clearance

I confirm that I have completed the physical-activity readiness screening honestly and that,
where it or my own judgement indicated, I have obtained clearance from a qualified healthcare
provider before beginning. I will stop exercising and seek medical attention if I experience
chest pain, dizziness, faintness, unusual shortness of breath, or pain that is sharp or
persistent.

## 4. Release

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, I release and hold harmless
[LEGAL ENTITY NAME], its owners, employees, contractors, and affiliated coaches from any
claim, demand, or cause of action arising out of my use of the Service or my participation
in any activity it recommends, including claims based on ordinary negligence. This release
does not apply to gross negligence, recklessness, or wilful misconduct, or to any liability
that cannot be waived under applicable law.

## 5. Fitness content is general

Programming is generated from the information I provide and from general training models. It
is not individualised medical or rehabilitative advice and may not be appropriate for my
specific circumstances. I am responsible for adjusting or stopping any exercise that causes
pain or that I am not equipped to perform safely.

## 6. Age

The Service is intended for adults aged 18 and over.

## 7. Governing law

[TO BE COMPLETED WITH COUNSEL — governing law and venue, and any jurisdiction-specific
consumer-rights notices that cannot be excluded.]
