Terms of use

Phylax is a free app that gives athletes information about their own training: analysis of their sessions, training load, readiness, race predictions, training plans and programs. It is in beta testing, so features will change and, occasionally, something may not work as it should. Please tell me about problems with the Feedback button.

Everything Phylax shows, including readiness, load, predictions, plans, programs and suggested paces or weights, is general information worked out from the data you provide. It is not medical advice, diagnosis or individual coaching, and it does not replace advice from a doctor or health professional who knows your circumstances.

See a doctor before starting or changing your training if you have a medical condition or injury, are pregnant, have not exercised for a long time, or have symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness or unusual breathlessness. Stop and seek medical help if you feel unwell while training. You decide how you train.

• You need to be at least 16 years old to use Phylax.
• Keep your password to yourself. You are responsible for what is done with your account.
• Only add data that is yours, or that you have the person's permission to add.

Your training data stays yours. You allow Phylax to store and process it only to provide the app's features to you, and to the people you choose to share with. You can download all of it, or delete your account and everything in it, at any time in Settings.

Backups are made every night, but please keep your own copies of anything important, such as your watch's original files.

You choose what to share: routes, workout links, and your training with a coach. Shared routes and maps have the start, finish and your privacy zones removed. Please share only what you are comfortable with others seeing, and only share other people's information with their permission.

Free programs are general training templates, free to follow. Paid programs are for your own personal use: please don't share unlock codes or copy, publish or resell a program's content.

Phylax does not take any payments yet. Before any paid option (such as coach plans or an optional supporter payment) starts, these terms will be updated to set out prices, renewals, cancellations and refunds.

Please don't try to access other people's data, interfere with or overload the app, or copy the app or its content to offer elsewhere. Accounts used this way may be suspended.

If you connect Garmin Connect or another service, its own terms also apply to your use of it. You can disconnect at any time.

Phylax is provided as it is, and features may be added, changed or removed. If these terms change significantly, account holders will be emailed. If Phylax is ever closed, you will be told at least 30 days beforehand, so you can download your data.

Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law. Otherwise, to the extent the law allows, Joel Garrett EP and S&C is not responsible for loss arising from using Phylax or relying on its information, including data lost through a fault.

These terms are governed by the law of Queensland, Australia. Questions are welcome at phylaxapp@gmail.com.
