Last updated: 1 September 2026

This is a courtesy translation. The Portuguese-language version is the official text; in the event of any discrepancy, the Portuguese version prevails.

These Terms of Use ("the Terms") govern access to and use of the SapoAzul Workout mobile application ("the Application" or "App"), made available by J. Costa (sole trader operating under the SapoAzul brand), Portuguese taxpayer number (NIF) 226442225, with registered office / business address at Rua Álvaro Gomes 85, 4150-064 Porto, Portugal.

By downloading, installing, or using the Application, the user ("the User" or "you") agrees to these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, you must not use the Application.

1. Purpose and Nature of the Application

1.1. SapoAzul Workout is a local, informational software tool that generates strength- and resistance-training plans based on the information entered by the User and allows individual workouts to be logged on the device itself.

1.2. The Application is intended exclusively for adults and young people aged 14 and over, in good health, serving as strictly informational and personal-organisation support.

1.3. The Application is provided free of charge, with no membership fees, no in-app purchases, no advertising, and no monetary collection or commercial exploitation of the User's data.

2. Disclaimer of Medical Advice and Duty of Care

2.1. Not medical advice: The Application, its algorithms, the repetition ranges, the load suggestions, the weekly volume, and the plans generated constitute solely general fitness guidance based on product rules. The Application does not provide medical advice, does not make diagnoses, does not replace clinical assessments, and does not replace consulting qualified health, physiotherapy, or physical-education professionals.

2.2. Health and Safety Warning:

• The User should consult a physician, physiotherapist, or certified trainer before starting or changing any training programme, especially if they have or suspect an injury, health condition, or recent surgery, if they are pregnant or post-partum, or if they have been physically inactive for a long time.
• The User should warm up adequately before each session, use correct exercise technique, and adapt the choice of loads to their actual abilities.
• The User should stop exercising immediately and seek medical assistance if they feel pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, nausea, or chest discomfort.

2.3. User Autonomy and Assessment: Use of the Application and performance of any exercise depend exclusively on the individual assessment of your own physical condition. The User is solely responsible for verifying the suitability of the proposed exercises, respecting the limits of their body, and adapting or rejecting any suggestion issued by the Application.

3. Load Suggestions and Weekly Adjustments

3.1. Estimated Starting Load: Any starting-load values suggested by the Application are merely abstract mathematical estimates based on the data entered by the User. They serve only as a starting point and must be tested and calibrated by the User with a light warm-up set before performing the workout with the full load.

3.2. Plan Adjustments: The Application's weekly-adjustment engine suggests modifications to the plan based on the logged history. Any adjustment suggestion is presented to the User, who may expressly accept the change or keep the original plan.

4. Licence to Use

4.1. The Publisher grants the User a personal, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, and free licence to download, install, and use the Application for strictly personal and non-commercial purposes, in accordance with these Terms.

4.2. The User may not, directly or through third parties:

• Copy, modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the Application;
• Sell, rent, sublicense, distribute, or transfer the Application to third parties;

7.4. Safeguarding of Mandatory Rights: Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits the Publisher's liability for death or personal injury resulting from wilful misconduct or gross negligence, nor does it affect the mandatory rights the User may have as a consumer under the Portuguese Consumer Protection Act (Law No. 24/96) and other applicable legislation in Portugal and the European Union.
