Terms of Use
Last Updated: December, 2024
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the websites, applications, and other online services (collectively, the “Platform”) made available by Atlas and its affiliates (collectively, “Atlas,” “we,” “our,” or “us”).
By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”), which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, do not access or use the Platform.
1) Key Terms
For clarity, we use these definitions:

“Consumer” means a User who uses the Platform to find, match with, communicate with, or purchase services from an Atlas Professional.
“Atlas Professional” (or “Coach”) means a User who uses the Platform to offer coaching or related services, including but not limited to fitness, nutrition, athletic performance, weight loss, mobility, and rehab-focused training services.
“Pro Services” means the coaching and related services offered by Atlas Professionals.
“Content” means text, graphics, images, video, audio, information, or other materials made available through the Platform.

3) Accounts and Access
You may need to create an account to access certain features. You agree to provide accurate information and to keep your account credentials secure. You are responsible for activity that occurs under your account.
We may suspend or terminate accounts, or limit access to the Platform, if we believe you have violated these Terms or if necessary to protect the Platform, Users, or Atlas.
4) What Atlas Does
Atlas provides a Platform that may help Consumers discover, match with, and communicate with Atlas Professionals.
Atlas does not provide medical care and does not replace medical professionals. Atlas may facilitate scheduling, communications, payments, and other tools, but the Pro Services are provided by Atlas Professionals (unless explicitly stated otherwise in a written agreement with you).
5) Coaches Are Independent and Results Aren’t Guaranteed
Unless stated otherwise in writing:
Atlas Professionals are generally independent service providers and not employees of Atlas.
Atlas does not guarantee any particular outcome from Pro Services. Individual results vary.
6) Health and Safety Disclaimer

You assume all risks associated with your participation in Pro Services.
Any information provided through the Platform is for general educational purposes and is not medical advice.
If you experience pain, dizziness, injury, or other adverse symptoms, stop immediately and seek medical attention.
7) Payments, Billing, and Refunds
If the Platform enables payments, you may be required to provide payment information to a third-party payment processor. You agree to the payment processor’s terms and authorize charges associated with your purchases.
Refunds, cancellation policies, session rescheduling, and no-show policies may vary by Atlas Professional and/or the specific plan you purchase. Any applicable refund or cancellation terms will be disclosed at checkout or in your service agreement.
