Medical & Safety Disclaimer
Version 1.2 — last updated 15 September 2026
1. Not a medical device, not medical advice
IpsoFit is a productivity and general-fitness app. It is not a medical device, has not been reviewed by any health authority, and nothing it shows — exercise suggestions, repetition counts, calibration levels, statistics, reminders — is medical, physiotherapeutic or dietary advice. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any condition. Do not use IpsoFit to make decisions about a health condition. For any medical concern, consult a qualified professional; in an emergency, call your local emergency number.
2. Talk to a professional before you start
Physical exercise carries a risk of injury and, rarely, of serious events such as heart problems. Before starting to use IpsoFit — or any exercise programme — consult a doctor or another qualified healthcare professional, and do so in particular if any of these applies to you:
- heart disease, high blood pressure, or a history of chest pain, fainting or dizziness;
- a respiratory condition such as asthma or COPD;
- diabetes, or any condition affected by exertion;
- an injury or chronic pain in your back, neck, shoulders, hips, knees or other joints;
- osteoporosis, a recent surgery or fracture;
- pregnancy or the months after giving birth;
- you have been inactive for a long time, or a professional has advised you to limit physical activity;
- you are taking medication that affects heart rate, blood pressure or balance.
Only you and your healthcare professional can judge whether an exercise is suitable for you. IpsoFit's selection is automatic and generic: it does not consider your medical history.
3. Stop immediately if
Stop exercising and seek medical help if you experience:
- chest pain, pressure or tightness, or pain spreading to the arm, neck or jaw;
- dizziness, light-headedness, fainting or confusion;
- shortness of breath beyond what the effort explains, or wheezing;
- sharp, sudden or joint pain, a "pop" or "snap", or numbness;
- nausea, cold sweat or an irregular heartbeat.
Do not resume until a professional says it is safe. IpsoFit cannot detect these symptoms and cannot call for help.
4. Exercise instructions are general guidance
- Every exercise description, animation and repetition target is a general template. Adapt the range of motion, tempo, load and number of repetitions to your own level, and skip any exercise you are unsure about — the app always lets you skip or postpone.
- Correct form is your responsibility. If you are unfamiliar with a movement, learn it from a qualified instructor first.
- Exercise in a safe environment: enough space, a stable non-slip surface, suitable footwear and clothing, and equipment in good condition rated for the load you use. When IpsoFit assumes equipment (gym or home context), you choose the actual weights and objects — choose conservatively.
- Warm-up and rest suggestions are generic; listen to your body over the timer.
- Calibration levels and statistics are approximate and exist to keep you motivated, not to measure health.
5. Eye-rest breaks
Eye-rest exercises (looking away from the screen, blinking, focusing at a distance) are comfort routines for screen work. They are not a treatment for any eye condition and do not replace an eye examination. If you have persistent eye strain, pain, blurred or double vision, see an eye-care professional.
6. Reminders and timers
Reminders, working-hours schedules and Pomodoro timers are productivity aids. They are not medical schedules, and a missed or extra break has no clinical meaning. Never exercise when it would be unsafe — for example while driving, operating machinery or in a space where you could fall.
7. Your acknowledgment
The first time you enter IpsoFit — and again whenever this notice changes — the app shows a summary of this disclaimer and asks you to confirm that you have read and understood it before any exercise can start. The app records, on your device only, which version you acknowledged and when. By continuing you confirm that you accept this disclaimer and the Terms of Use, and that you exercise at your own risk.
