Health & Fitness Disclaimer

Effective July 11, 2026 · Draft pending legal review

1. General information only

SmartBell provides general fitness information generated by software. It is not medical advice and is not a substitute for evaluation, diagnosis, or treatment by a qualified healthcare professional, nor for in-person supervision by a certified trainer. Using SmartBell does not create a doctor-patient or trainer-client relationship.

2. Consult a physician before you start

You should obtain medical clearance before beginning any exercise program, and you must do so if any of the following apply to you:

• You have a heart condition, or a doctor has said you should only do physically active work recommended by a doctor
• You feel chest pain, pressure, or dizziness during physical activity
• You have high or uncontrolled blood pressure
• You are pregnant or recently postpartum
• You have had recent surgery, a recent injury, or a bone/joint problem that could be made worse by exercise
• You take medication that affects your heart rate or blood pressure
• You have a chronic condition such as diabetes, asthma, osteoporosis, or a cardiovascular or musculoskeletal condition

3. Pain guidance

Mild muscle soreness a day or two after training is normal. Sharp, severe, or persistent pain is not. Stop the movement immediately. Consult a medical professional if pain persists, worsens, wakes you at night, or comes with numbness or tingling.

4. What the software cannot do

Your plan is generated from the answers you provide and your gym's equipment list. SmartBell cannot see you, assess your form, evaluate your medical history, or detect a condition you did not report. Its guidance may be inappropriate for your circumstances. You are responsible for judging whether an exercise is safe for you, for using correct form and appropriate weight, and for asking gym staff or a certified trainer when you are unsure.

5. Assumption of risk

Exercise carries inherent risks, including muscle strain, joint injury, cardiac events, and in rare cases serious injury or death. By using SmartBell, you voluntarily assume all risks associated with exercise performed using plans or guidance generated by the service. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release and hold harmless SmartBell, its owners, employees, and agents, and your gym, from claims arising from your participation in exercise based on information provided by the service, except for claims arising from gross negligence or willful misconduct.

6. Certain populations

Do not use SmartBell to design training if you are under 16, are pregnant, or have been advised against exercise, unless a qualified professional has cleared you and is supervising your training.

7. Your acknowledgment

When you select "I understand" in the app, you confirm that you have read and accept this disclaimer, and that you have answered the pre-participation screening questions truthfully.
