1. Agreement to Terms

By accessing or using Kova Fitness ("the Platform", "we", "our") at kovafitnesske.com, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you disagree with any part of these terms, you may not access the Platform. These terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who access or use the Platform.

2. Description of Service

Kova Fitness is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform that enables fitness coaches ("Trainers") to manage clients, deliver training programs, track progress, and communicate with clients through a branded white-label portal. Clients ("Clients") access the platform at the invitation of their Trainer.

3. User Accounts

You must be at least 18 years old to create a Trainer account. Client accounts may be created for individuals under 18 only with verifiable parental or guardian consent. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify us immediately at training@kovafitnesske.com if you suspect any unauthorised use of your account.

4. Trainer Responsibilities

Trainers are solely responsible for the training programs, nutritional guidance, and advice they provide to their clients through the Platform. Kova Fitness does not review, verify, or endorse any training content created by Trainers. Trainers represent that they hold all necessary qualifications, certifications, and insurance required to provide fitness coaching services in their jurisdiction. Kova Fitness shall not be liable for any injury, harm, or damage arising from training advice or programs delivered through the Platform.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Platform to: (a) violate any applicable laws or regulations; (b) transmit harmful, offensive, or unlawful content; (c) impersonate any person or entity; (d) interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Platform; (e) attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Platform or its related systems; (f) use the Platform to provide services that compete directly with Kova Fitness without our prior written consent.

6. Intellectual Property

The Platform and its original content, features, and functionality are and will remain the exclusive property of Kova Fitness. Our trademarks and trade dress may not be used in connection with any product or service without the prior written consent of Kova Fitness. Training content, client data, and programs created by Trainers remain the intellectual property of the respective Trainer.

7. Subscription & Payment

Trainer subscriptions are billed monthly. Payments are currently processed via M-Pesa. Subscription fees are listed at kovafitnesske.com/pricing and are subject to change with 30 days written notice. Continued use of the Platform after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing. Your subscription will remain active as long as payments are received and verified. Failure to renew within 7 days of expiry will result in account suspension.

8. Free Trial

New Trainer accounts receive a 14-day free trial with full platform access. No payment information is required during the trial period. At the end of the trial, access will be restricted until a valid subscription is activated. Trial periods are available once per person and cannot be transferred or extended.

9. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at our sole discretion, without notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is harmful to other users, us, third parties, or for any other reason. Upon termination, your right to use the Platform ceases immediately. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination shall survive, including ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, and limitations of liability.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Platform is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. Kova Fitness does not warrant that the Platform will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Kova Fitness and its directors, employees, partners, agents, suppliers, or affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from your use of or inability to use the Platform. Our total liability to you for all claims arising from these terms or your use of the Platform shall not exceed the total amount paid by you to Kova Fitness in the 12 months preceding the claim.

12. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Kenya. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Platform shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Kenya.

13. Changes to Terms

We reserve the right to modify or replace these Terms at any time. We will provide at least 14 days notice before any material changes take effect by emailing the address associated with your account. Your continued use of the Platform after any changes constitutes acceptance of the new Terms.

3. Client Data

Trainers are considered data controllers for the personal data of their clients. Kova Fitness acts as a data processor on behalf of Trainers. Client personal data (name, email, health information, workout logs) is stored securely and is only accessible by the respective Trainer and the client. Kova Fitness staff do not access client data except where required to provide technical support or comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share data with trusted service providers who assist us in operating the Platform (Supabase for database hosting, Resend for email delivery) under strict confidentiality agreements. We may disclose information where required by law or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Kova Fitness, our users, or the public.

5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including encrypted data storage, secure HTTPS connections, and row-level security on our database. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security but are committed to protecting your data using commercially reasonable means.

6. Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Platform. If you delete your account, your data will be permanently removed from our systems within 30 days, except where retention is required by applicable law. Trainers may request deletion of their data at any time via training@kovafitnesske.com.
