Updated at September 10, 2026
General Terms
By signing in and/or subscribing to ROOT app, you confirm that you are in agreement with and bound by the terms of service contained in the Terms & Conditions outlined below. These terms apply to the entire ROOT app, website and any email or other type of communication.
Under no circumstances shall ROOT app team be liable for any direct, indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, including, but not limited to, loss of data or profit, arising out of the use, or the inability to use, the materials on this site, even if ROOT app team or an authorized representative has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
ROOT app will not be responsible for any outcome that may occur during the course of usage of our resources. We reserve the rights to change prices and revise the resources usage policy in any moment. ROOT app operates globally, but it is your responsibility to ensure that your use of the app complies with the laws and regulations of your country or region.
Age Restrictions
ROOT is intended for athletes and active individuals. Users under the age of 18 should obtain consent from a parent or legal guardian before using the app where required by applicable law. By using the app, you confirm that you meet the minimum age requirements applicable in your jurisdiction or have obtained the necessary parental consent.
License
ROOT app grants you a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited license to download, install and use the app strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
These Terms & Conditions are a contract between you and the developer of ROOT app (referred to as "ROOT app," "us," "we," or "our"), the provider of the ROOT app website and the services accessible from the ROOT app website (which are collectively referred to as the "ROOT app Service").
If you violate any of these Terms & Conditions, we reserve the right to cancel your account or block access to your account without notice.

You agree not to, and you will not permit others to:
- License, sell, rent, lease, assign, distribute, transmit, host, outsource, disclose or otherwise commercially exploit the app or make the platform available to any third party.

Coaching & Shared Access
ROOT lets you connect with a coach. When you enable coach access (from "Enable coach access," by letting your coach scan your QR code), you authorise that coach to view your statistics, training history, and exercise and personal data, and to create, edit, and delete exercises in your app — including through the ROOT coach web dashboard — as described in our Privacy Policy ("Coaches & Data Access"). A coach cannot change your app settings, log you out, or delete your account. You can have one coach at a time, and you may end coach access at any time ("Revoke coach access"), which stops that coach's future access to your data.
ROOT also lets you share your own profile with people you choose — for example an external coach, a physiotherapist, or a parent — by creating a share link from the app or the ROOT web dashboard. You decide who to share with, you may create more than one link, and you are responsible for choosing recipients and for revoking a link when access is no longer needed. A shared link is view-only by default; only if you expressly choose it can the recipient also add training programs to your account, the same access a connected coach has. A recipient cannot change your settings, log you out, delete your account, or re-share your data.
If someone shares their profile with you (for example as a coach, physiotherapist, or parent), you agree to use their data only to support their training or wellbeing, to keep it confidential, and not to re-share it. You may need to sign in to view it; by using a shared link you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
If you are a coach, you agree to use athlete data only to provide coaching and to keep it confidential. Consent for a minor's use of ROOT, for the processing of their data, and for sharing a minor's profile is the responsibility of the athlete's parent or legal guardian, not the coach or recipient.
Subscriptions
The ROOT app offers subscriptions through in-app purchases, which are securely handled by Apple. Subscriptions provide access to all app features, including the ability to log new exercises, once the free trial period ends. We offer a 10-day free trial with full functionality.
You can manage your subscription directly through your Apple account. This includes changing your subscription plan, restoring a previously purchased subscription, or canceling it at any time. Changes to your subscription will be handled by Apple and may take effect at the start of your next billing cycle.
Please note that subscription terms, including pricing and trial durations, are subject to change. We encourage users to review the details in the App Store before confirming a purchase.
Return and Refund Policy
All payments for subscriptions made through the ROOT app are processed by Apple via your Apple ID account. As such, ROOT does not have access to or control over your payment details, billing, or refund requests. Per Apple's policies, all refund requests must be directed to Apple. You can contact Apple Support directly at support.apple.com.
The Algorithm
The ROOT app uses a proprietary algorithm to provide personalized training recommendations and insights. While the algorithm has been developed and tested based on scientific principles, no algorithm is perfect. Outputs may contain errors or inaccuracies due to limitations in the data or unforeseen edge cases.
The algorithm's recommendations and statistics are intended as tools to guide your fitness journey. They should not replace professional advice or judgment. Users are responsible for inputting accurate data and using outputs as recommendations, not absolute directives.
Weight Recommendations
The app offers weight recommendations tailored to your inputs, designed to optimize your training intensity. These recommendations are based on the data you input, including body weight, past performance, and goals. Incorrect data may result in inaccurate suggestions.
Weight recommendations are suggestions, not prescriptions. Lifting weights beyond your capacity or with improper form can result in injury. Always prioritize safety over performance and seek professional guidance if needed.
Health Disclaimer
The ROOT app is not a substitute for medical advice or professional fitness training. Always consult a healthcare provider or certified fitness professional before starting a new exercise program, especially if you have pre-existing medical conditions, injuries, or are new to strength training.
Use of the app is at your own risk, and you agree to hold ROOT app harmless for any injuries or health issues arising from your training. ROOT app and its developers shall not be liable for any injury, damage, or health issues arising from the use of the app, including but not limited to improper use of equipment, failure to follow safety recommendations, or errors in user-provided data.
Intellectual Property
The app and its entire contents, features and functionality (including but not limited to all information, software, text, displays, images, video and audio, and the design, selection and arrangement thereof), are owned by ROOT app, its licensors or other providers of such material and are protected by Czechia and international copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret and other intellectual property or proprietary rights laws. The material may not be copied, modified, reproduced, downloaded or distributed in any way, in whole or in part, without the express prior written permission of ROOT app.
No Warranties
The app is provided to you "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" and with all faults and defects without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, ROOT app expressly disclaims all warranties, whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise, with respect to the app, including all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement.
Limitation of Liability
Notwithstanding any damages that you might incur, the entire liability of ROOT app and any of its suppliers under any provision of this Agreement shall be limited to the amount actually paid by you for the app. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall ROOT app or its suppliers be liable for any special, incidental, indirect, or consequential damages whatsoever.
Dispute Resolution
If you have any concerns or disputes about the services provided by the ROOT app, we encourage you to contact us first to attempt to resolve the matter informally. If we cannot resolve the dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days, the matter will be submitted to binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Arbitration will take place in Czechia.
Governing Law
These Terms & Conditions are governed by the laws of Czechia. ROOT app operates and controls the ROOT app Service from its offices in Czechia.
