Terms & Conditions

Effective: 24.08.2026

1. Scope

These Terms and Conditions apply to the use of the "Based!" mobile application (the "Application"), together with any related services, operated by Karl Kuhne, Tieckstr. 11, 01099 Dresden, Germany (the "Service Provider"). By downloading, installing, or using the Application you agree to these Terms. You should read them carefully before using the Application.

2. Description of Service

Based! is an app for recording and managing workout routines, exercises, workout logs, and body weight data. The app is offline-first and synchronizes data with the Service Provider's server whenever an internet connection is available.

3. License to Use the Application

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Service Provider grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Application on a mobile device for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Application, except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law.

4. Intellectual Property

The Service Provider retains all intellectual property rights in the Application, including its code, design, trademarks, and branding. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use the Service Provider's trademarks, logos, or branding for any purpose. You agree not to remove, alter, or obscure any copyright or proprietary notices displayed in or on the Application.

5. Registration and Account

Using the Application requires creating an account (email address and password). You must provide accurate information and keep your password confidential. You are responsible for activity under your account for as long as you have not lost control of your credentials through no fault of your own.

6. Pro Subscriptions and Purchases

Based! offers optional paid features ("Based Pro") as a monthly subscription, annual subscription, or one-time lifetime purchase. Purchases are processed exclusively through Apple's in-app purchase system (App Store). The Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions additionally apply.

Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Cancellation is managed through your Apple account's subscription settings, not directly through the Service Provider โ€” the Service Provider has no access to or control over payment processing. Refunds are governed exclusively by Apple's policies.

Where you have a statutory right of withdrawal for digital content under applicable consumer protection law (e.g. ยง 312g BGB in Germany), that right may not apply once performance of the digital service has begun with your express consent and acknowledgement that you thereby lose your right of withdrawal.

7. Custom Content You Create

The Application lets you create custom exercises, plans, and notes. This content is private to your account and is not shared with, or visible to, other users or the public โ€” the Application does not currently offer social or sharing features. You retain ownership of the content you create; the Service Provider processes it solely to provide the Application's functionality, as described in the Privacy Policy.

8. Disclaimer Regarding Training Content

Content provided in the Application (exercise suggestions, training plans, statistics) does not constitute medical or physiotherapeutic advice. Consult a physician before beginning a training program if appropriate. Use of the Application and performance of exercises is at your own risk.

9. Availability

The Service Provider strives for high availability of server-side services but does not guarantee uninterrupted access. Maintenance, outages, or disruptions may temporarily affect synchronization; the Application remains usable locally thanks to its offline-first architecture. Some features require an active internet connection; the Service Provider is not responsible for lack of connectivity, data charges, or roaming charges you may incur from your mobile network provider.

10. Termination

You may delete your account at any time via the Application's settings. The Service Provider may suspend your access if you materially breach these Terms, and will provide notice of the breach where practicable and a reasonable opportunity to cure it. The Service Provider may suspend or terminate access immediately, without notice, if you violate applicable law, infringe intellectual property rights, or engage in conduct that could harm other users or the Service Provider.

The Service Provider may also modify or discontinue the Application at any time. Upon termination, your license to use the Application ends and you must delete it from your devices.

11. Age Requirement

You must be at least 16 years of age (the age of digital consent in your jurisdiction) to use the Application. If you are younger, a parent or legal guardian must review and accept these Terms on your behalf.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service Provider is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including lost data or business interruption. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you have under mandatory consumer protection law.

13. Changes to These Terms

The Service Provider may amend these Terms with effect for the future where legally or technically necessary. You will be notified of material changes within the Application.

14. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, except where mandatory consumer protection provisions of your habitual residence provide otherwise.

15. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
