By creating an account, accessing, or using the service, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
1. The Service
Velowatt is an indoor cycling platform that may provide training tools, ride planning, performance insights, structured workouts, account features, subscription features, and optional integrations with third-party fitness platforms.
The service includes features powered by artificial intelligence ("AI Features"), such as voice-controlled application commands (where your voice recordings are processed to perform in-app actions) and AI-assisted workout generators (where text prompts or parameters are used to generate custom training workouts).
The service is intended for informational and training support purposes only. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, to create an account and use paid features unless a parent or legal guardian validly consents where permitted by law.
3. Account Registration

You must notify us promptly at n.l.meereboer@gmail.com if you believe your account has been accessed without authorization.
4. Health and Training Disclaimer
Indoor cycling and structured training involve intense physical exertion and carry inherent risks of injury or health complications. You are solely responsible for determining whether you are medically and physically fit to participate in any activity, workout, or training plan made available through the service.
You must consult a qualified physician before starting or changing a training program, especially if you have any known medical conditions, injuries, or cardiovascular risks.
AI-Generated Workouts: Workouts generated or modified by our AI Features are automated recommendations based on probabilistic algorithms. They do not take into account your actual physical state, undetected medical conditions, or real-time fatigue unless explicitly provided, and even then, they are not reviewed by medical or athletic professionals. You must use common sense, listen to your body, and never push yourself beyond your safe limits.
Voice Control Safety: Voice control is an auxiliary, hands-free convenience feature. Due to the nature of voice processing, there may be delays, errors, or failure to recognize commands. Do not rely on voice commands for emergency stops or safety-critical device controls. You must always maintain access to your physical, manual controls to stop, pause, or reduce intensity immediately if you experience pain, discomfort, dizziness, or any other physical distress.
You use the service, any training recommendations, and all AI-generated workouts at your own risk.
