This End User License Agreement and Terms of Service (this “EULA”) is a binding contract between you, an individual entering into this EULA on your own behalf (“you”), and BridgeAthletic, Inc. (“Bridge,” “we,” “us” or “our”) governing your use of the mobile software application that BridgeAthletic has made available for download (the “App”) and any websites or other online services or properties owned or controlled by BridgeAthletic and offered to you (together with the App, the “Service”).
The Service provides users (“Users”) with, among other things, a platform to monitor athletic training progress, and through the App, we may make available to you certain services and content supplied by third-parties with whom we contract. These third parties may provide content in several forms, including, but not limited to, workout and exercise prescriptions, guidance and cues, through the Services (“Content Providers”).
By clicking “i agree,” or by downloading, installing, or otherwise accessing or using the service, you agree that you have read and understood, and as a condition to your use of the service, you agree to be bound by this EULA. If you represent an organization or employer, you agree to these terms on behalf of the organization or employer and represent that you have the authority to bind the organization or employer. If you are not eligible, or do not agree to the terms of this EULA, you do not have our permission to use the service. Your use of the service, and bridge’s provision of the service to you, constitutes an agreement by BridgeAthletic and by you to be bound by this EULA.
As provided in greater detail in this EULA (and without limiting the express language of this EULA), you acknowledge the following:
With respect to Content Providers, you understand, acknowledge and agree that: (i) releases, indemnifications, waivers and contractual benefits of any nature that apply, extend or inure to the benefit of BridgeAthletic also apply, extend and inure to the benefit of Content Provider to the extent made available through the Services on our behalf; and (ii) you may be required to agree to separate instruments and agreements as required by the Content Providers concerning your acceptance and receipt of services from the Content Provider via the Services.
BridgeAthletic provides you with access to certain portions of the Service free of charge, but to enjoy the full benefits of the Service, you must purchase subscription-based access to the Service. In return for enjoying free or subscription-based access to the Service, you acknowledge and agree that BridgeAthletic may generate revenues, increase goodwill or otherwise increase the value of BridgeAthletic from your use of the Service, and you will have no right to share in any such revenue, goodwill or value whatsoever. Before you pay any fees, you will have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged. All fees are in U.S. Dollars and are non-refundable unless we say otherwise. You authorize BridgeAthletic or our payment processing service provider to charge, on an ongoing basis, all accrued sums and taxes for the orders that you make and any level of Service you select as described in this EULA or published by BridgeAthletic to the payment method specified in your account, until cancelation or termination of the paid Service. If you pay any fees with a credit card, then BridgeAthletic may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your purchase.
If you purchase a subscription to the Service, then the following terms also apply:
By purchasing a subscription to the service, you agree that, once your subscription expires, your subscription will automatically renew for successive periods equal in length to the immediately preceding subscription period unless and until you cancel your subscription.
You authorize the applicable service provider to process your payments for any renewal subscription. Subscription prices will be displayed to you at the time of purchase. You will be billed for the same subscription plan (or the most similar subscription plan, if your prior plan is no longer available) at the then-current subscription price plus any applicable taxes. Your payments will be processed for any renewal subscription using the same billing cycle as your current subscription. In other words, if your payment is processed for your current subscription on the 20th of each month, then your payment will continue to be processed on that day for any renewal subscription. Additional terms and conditions may apply upon renewal, and subscription fees may change at any time, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law. For information on the subscription fees, please see our website at bridgeathletic.com.
You may contact BridgeAthletic at support@bridgeathletic.com at any time to request that we cancel your subscription to the service. Any such cancellation will not be deemed effective until we expressly confirm the cancellation has occurred in writing. Once we have confirmed the cancellation of your subscription to the service in accordance with the preceding sentence, you will not be charged for any subsequent subscription period. BridgeAthletic has no obligation to offer or provide any refund for the cancellation of any subscription.
BridgeAthletic may suspend or terminate access to the Service, including fee-based portions of the Service, for any account for which any amount is due but unpaid. In addition to the amount due for the Service, a delinquent account may be charged with fees or charges that are incidental to any chargeback or collection of any unpaid amount, including collection fees. If your payment method is no longer valid at the time a renewal subscription fee is due, then BridgeAthletic reserves the right to delete your account and any information or User Content associated with your account without any liability to you.
You understand and agree that we may change this EULA at any time without prior notice; provided that we will endeavor to provide you with prior notice of any material changes that may apply to you, including through the posting of a revised EULA that you may be required to accept in order to continue using the Service. You may read a current, effective copy of this EULA at any time by selecting the appropriate link on the Service. The revised EULA will become effective at the time of posting unless specified otherwise. Any use of the Service after the effective date will constitute your acceptance of such revised EULA. If you find any change to this EULA or the Service unacceptable, then your sole remedy is to cancel or terminate the Service as described in this EULA or in the Services, stop accessing, browsing and otherwise using the Service. The terms of this EULA will govern any updates BridgeAthletic provides to you that replace and/or supplement any portion of the Service, unless the upgrade is accompanied by a separate license or revised EULA, in which case the terms of that license or revised EULA will govern. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences of this Section 1.e, no revisions to this EULA will apply to any dispute between you and BridgeAthletic that arose prior to the effective date of such revision.
Your access to and use of the Service is also subject to BridgeAthletic’s Privacy Policy located here, the terms and conditions of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Without limiting the preceding sentences of this Section, BridgeAthletic also has the right – but not the obligation – to take remedial action in connection with any Objectionable Content Posted on the Service as described more fully in Section 5.g below. If at any time BridgeAthletic chooses to monitor the content, then BridgeAthletic still assumes no responsibility or liability for content or any loss or damage incurred as a result of the use of content.

BridgeAthletic disclaims any and all liability in connection with User Content. By providing User Content via the Service, you affirm, represent, and warrant that: (i) you are the creator and owner of the User Content Posted by you on or through the Service or otherwise have all licenses, consents, permissions, and rights necessary to authorize BridgeAthletic to use and distribute your User Content as necessary to exercise the licenses granted by you in this Section, in the manner contemplated by Bridge, the Service, and this EULA; (ii) the Posting and Use of your User Content on or through the Service does not and will not infringe, violate, misappropriate, or otherwise breach any third-party right, including any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, moral right, privacy right, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property, contract, or proprietary right, does not and will not slander, defame, libel, or invade the right of privacy, publicity or other property rights of any other person, and does not and will not cause BridgeAthletic to violate any law or regulation; (iii) the Posting of your User Content on the Service does not and will not require us to obtain any further licenses from or pay any royalties, fees, compensation or other amounts or provide any attribution to any third parties; and (iv) the Posting of your User Content on the Service does not result in a breach of contract between you and a third party. You agree to pay all monies owing to any person as a result of Posting your User Content on the Service and from BridgeAthletic’s exercise of the license set forth in this Section.

By Posting User Content to or through the Service, you waive any rights to prior inspection or approval of any marketing or promotional materials related to such User Content. You understand that, when using the Service, you will be exposed to User Content from a variety of sources and acknowledge that User Content may be inaccurate, offensive, indecent, or objectionable.

For the avoidance of doubt, BridgeAthletic will not be liable for any use or misuse of User Content by any User.
In addition to any other restrictions set forth in this EULA, and without limiting those restrictions, when using the Service, you agree not to (and not to attempt to):
The Service may contain links to or the ability to share information with third party websites (“External Sites”), including through features that allow you to link your account on the Service with an account on the External Site, such as linkedin.com, twitter.com, instagram.com or facebook.com, google.com or through our implementation of third-party buttons (such as “like” or “share” buttons). By using one of these tools, you hereby authorize BridgeAthletic to transfer that information to the applicable third-party service. BridgeAthletic does not endorse any External Sites or the content made available on such External Sites. All External Sites and any content thereon is developed and provided by others and are not under BridgeAthletic’s control.

BridgeAthletic is not responsible for the content of any External Sites and does not make any representations regarding the content or accuracy of any materials on such External Sites. You should take precautions when downloading files from all websites to protect your computer and mobile devices from viruses and other destructive programs.

You agree that BridgeAthletic will have no liability to you arising from your use, engagement, exposure to or interaction with any External Sites. Please be sure to review the terms of use and privacy policy of any External Sites before you share any User Content or information with such External Sites. Once sharing occurs, BridgeAthletic will have no control over the information that has been shared.
The Service may include or incorporate third-party software components that are generally available free of charge under licenses granting recipients broad rights to copy, modify, and distribute those components (“Third-Party Components”). Although the Service is provided to you subject to this EULA, nothing in this EULA prevents, restricts, or is intended to prevent or restrict you from obtaining Third-Party Components under the applicable third-party licenses or to limit your use of Third-Party Components under those third-party licenses.
While we are continually working to develop and evaluate our own product ideas and features, we know we don’t have all the answers. We therefore welcome your feedback, comments and suggestions. If you choose to contribute by sending BridgeAthletic or our employees any ideas for products, services, features, modifications, enhancements, content, refinements, technologies, content offerings (such as audio, visual, games or other types of content), promotions, strategies or product/feature names or any related documentation, artwork, computer code, diagrams or other materials (collectively “Feedback”), then regardless of what your accompanying communication may say, the following terms will apply, so that future misunderstandings can be avoided. Accordingly, by sending Feedback to Bridge, you agree that:
BridgeAthletic respects the intellectual property of others and takes the protection of intellectual property very seriously, and we ask our Users to do the same. Infringing activity will not be tolerated on or through the Service.
BridgeAthletic’s intellectual property policy is to: (i) remove or disable access to material that BridgeAthletic believes in good faith, upon notice from an intellectual property owner or authorized agent, is infringing the intellectual property rights of a third party by being made available through the Service; and (ii) remove any User Content uploaded to the Service by “repeat infringers.” BridgeAthletic considers a “repeat infringer” to be any User that has uploaded User Content to or through the Service and for whom BridgeAthletic has received more than two takedown notices compliant with the provisions of 17 U.S.C. § 512 with respect to such User Content. BridgeAthletic reserves the right, however, to suspend or terminate the Account of any User after receipt of a single notification of claimed infringement or upon BridgeAthletic’s own determination.
If you believe that any content made available on or through the Service has been used or exploited in a manner that infringes an intellectual property right you own or control, then please promptly send a written “Notification of Claimed Infringement” containing the following information to the Designated Agent identified below. Your Notification of Claimed Infringement may be shared by BridgeAthletic with the User alleged to have infringed a right you own or control, and you hereby consent to BridgeAthletic making such disclosure. Your communication must include substantially the following:
Your Notification of Claimed Infringement may be shared by BridgeAthletic with the user alleged to have infringed a right you own or control as well as with the operators of publicly available databases that track notifications of claimed infringement, and you consent to BridgeAthletic making such disclosures. You should consult with your own lawyer and/or see 17 U.S.C. § 512 to confirm your obligations to provide a valid notice of claimed infringement.
BridgeAthletic’s designated agent for receipt of Notifications of Claimed Infringement (the “Designated Agent”) can be contacted at:
BridgeAthletic, Inc.
Phone: (650) 644-7416
Via E-mail:copyright@bridgeathletic.com
Via U.S. Mail: P.O. Box 610123, Redwood City, CA 94061
Attn: BridgeAthletic Compliance Department
If you receive a notification from BridgeAthletic that material made available by you on or through the Service has been the subject of a Notification of Claimed Infringement, then you will have the right to provide BridgeAthletic with what is called a “Counter Notification.” To be effective, a Counter Notification must be in writing, provided to BridgeAthletic’s Designated Agent through one of the methods identified in Section 9.b, and include substantially the following information:
A party submitting a Counter Notification should consult a lawyer or see 17 U.S.C. § 512 to confirm the party’s obligations to provide a valid counter notification under the Copyright Act.
If you submit a Counter Notification to BridgeAthletic in response to a Notification of Claimed Infringement, then BridgeAthletic will promptly provide the person who provided the Notification of Claimed Infringement with a copy of your Counter Notification and inform that person that BridgeAthletic will replace the removed User Content or cease disabling access to it in 10 business days, and BridgeAthletic will replace the removed User Content and cease disabling access to it not less than 10, nor more than 14, business days following receipt of the Counter Notification, unless BridgeAthletic’s Designated Agent receives notice from the party that submitted the Notification of Claimed Infringement that such person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the User from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on BridgeAthletic’s system or network.
The Copyright Act provides that:
[a]ny person who knowingly materially misrepresents under [Section 512 of the Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512)] (1) that material or activity is infringing, or (2) that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, will be liable for any damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees, incurred by the alleged infringer, by any copyright owner or copyright owner’s authorized licensee, or by a service provider, who is injured by such misrepresentation, as the result of [Bridge] relying upon such misrepresentation in removing or disabling access to the material or activity claimed to be infringing, or in replacing the removed material or ceasing to disable access to it.
17 U.S.C. § 512(f).
BridgeAthletic reserves the right to seek damages from any party that submits a Notification of Claimed Infringement or Counter Notification in violation of the law.
In the interest of resolving disputes between you and BridgeAthletic in the most expedient and cost effective manner, and except as described in Section 10.b and 10.c, you and BridgeAthletic agree that any dispute arising in connection with this EULA, the Service, and communications from us will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or in any way related to this EULA, the Service, or any communications to or from us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of this EULA. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS EULA, YOU AND BridgeAthletic ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
Notwithstanding Section 10.a above, nothing in this EULA will be deemed to waive, preclude or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; (ii) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state or local agency if that action is available; (iii) seek injunctive relief in aid of arbitration from a court of law of competent jurisdiction; or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section 10 within 30 days after the date that you agree to this EULA by sending a letter to BridgeAthletic, Inc., Attention: BridgeAthletic Compliance Department, P.O. Box 610123, Redwood City, CA 94061 that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the Service, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once BridgeAthletic receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 10 will be void and any action arising out of this EULA will be resolved as set forth in Section 16. The remaining provisions of this EULA will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.
Any arbitration between you and BridgeAthletic will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this EULA, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Bridge. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.
A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice”). BridgeAthletic’s address for Notice is: 290 Division Street, Suite 410, San Francisco, CA, Attn: Chief Executive Officer. The Notice must: (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or BridgeAthletic may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or BridgeAthletic must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor with a monetary award that exceeds the last written settlement amount offered by BridgeAthletic prior to selection of an arbitrator, BridgeAthletic will pay you the highest of the following: (1) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; and (2) $10,000.
If you commence arbitration in accordance with this EULA, BridgeAthletic will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000 or as set forth below, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in the county and state of your billing address, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (i) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (ii) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (iii) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse BridgeAthletic for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. Each party agrees that such written decision, and information exchanged during arbitration, will be kept confidential except to the extent necessary to enforce or permit limited judicial review of the award. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits. Notwithstanding anything in this EULA to the contrary, and for the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrator can award injunctive relief as a remedy in any arbitration required under this Section 10.
YOU AND BridgeAthletic AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and BridgeAthletic agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
If BridgeAthletic makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to BridgeAthletic’s address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to BridgeAthletic’s address for Notice, in which case this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected, will continue to govern any disputes between you and Bridge.
If Section 10.g above is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 10 is found to be unenforceable, or if BridgeAthletic receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the entirety of this Section 10 will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 16 will govern any action arising out of or related to this EULA.
The following terms in this section 11 apply to the fullest extent permitted by law:
To the fullest extent permitted by law, any dispute you have with any third party arising out of your use of the service, including, by way of example and not limitation, any carrier or other user, is directly between you and such third party, and you irrevocably release the bridgeathletic parties and content providers from any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.

BridgeAthletic reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter which is subject to indemnification under this Section if BridgeAthletic believes that you are unwilling or incapable of defending BridgeAthletic’s interests. In such case, you agree to cooperate with any reasonable requests assisting BridgeAthletic’s defense of such matter at your expense.
