1. Who We Are

Lockson Holdings, LLC

United States based company

FinishStrong is an iOS training plan application distributed through the Apple App Store.

2. Eligibility

FinishStrong is rated 9+ on the Apple App Store. If you are under the age of 13, you may use the app only with the involvement and supervision of a parent or legal guardian.

By using the app, you represent that you are using it in a manner appropriate for your age and physical condition.

3. Nature of the Service

FinishStrong provides automated running training plans based on limited onboarding information and post workout feedback you voluntarily provide. The app uses simple rules based logic to generate and adjust workouts focused on conservative progression and habit formation.

The app:

• Uses rules based logic to adjust workouts
• Does not provide medical advice
• Does not diagnose, treat, or prevent any medical condition

4. Medical Disclaimer and Safety Acknowledgment

FinishStrong is not a medical professional and does not provide medical advice.

By using the app, you acknowledge and agree that:

• FinishStrong is not a substitute for professional medical advice
• You should consult a physician before beginning any exercise program, especially if you have underlying health conditions
• You should stop exercising immediately and seek medical attention if you experience pain, dizziness, discomfort, or other concerning symptoms
• You assume all risks associated with physical activity performed in connection with the app

You understand that physical activity involves inherent risks and you voluntarily assume all such risks when using the app.

Half marathon and marathon training plans involve substantially more running volume over a longer period than the app's free or 5K plans. The same disclaimers in this section apply with equal force to those plans.

5. No Warranties or Guarantees

FinishStrong does not guarantee:

• Any specific fitness outcome
• Injury prevention
• Performance improvement
• Suitability of the training plan for your personal health condition

Training plans are generated based on user provided inputs and automated adjustments. Results vary by individual.

6. User Responsibilities

You are responsible for:

• Providing accurate information
• Using your own judgment when following any training plan
• Monitoring your physical condition
• Stopping workouts when appropriate

You agree not to misuse the app or use it in a way that could cause harm to yourself or others.

7. Free and Paid Features

FinishStrong offers both free and paid features.

Free Tier:

The free tier provides a complete, adaptive 4-week running plan with post-workout feedback, plan adjustments, and a rolling 2-week buffer beyond Week 4. The free tier is fully functional and does not require a subscription.

FinishStrong+ (Paid Subscription):

FinishStrong+ is an optional paid subscription that provides goal-oriented training plans. Available goals include a 5K plan with guided interval workouts and walk/run coaching, and half marathon and marathon plans with progressive weekly structure and a taper toward your race date. Availability of half marathon and marathon goals depends on your recent running activity.

FinishStrong+ also includes:

• Two Progress charts: a map of your runs and a record of what your body said along the way, plus a historical FS+ mark on completed workouts and a member-since line in Settings
• A plain, dated record of what your plan changed and why, and schedule control: choose your run days, move an upcoming run, pause a plan and pick it back up later, or start a different plan without losing any history
• Works with Apple Health: runs and walks recorded on a watch or in other apps can count toward your plan, and workouts recorded in FinishStrong can be saved to Apple Health if you choose. You can also send a scheduled workout to a paired Apple Watch

Subscription Terms:

• FinishStrong+ is available as a monthly subscription, annual subscription, or one-time lifetime purchase.
• Subscriptions include a free trial period. The length of the free trial is stated at the time of purchase.
• Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.
• Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period.
• Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period, at the same price.
• You can manage and cancel your subscription in your Apple ID account settings at any time.
• Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.

Cancellation:

If you cancel a subscription, you retain access to FinishStrong+ features until the end of your current billing period. After that, your goal-oriented plan is paused and the app continues with free tier features. Your progress and workout history are preserved. If you resubscribe, your plan resumes where you left off.

For a half marathon or marathon plan, your race date does not change if you pause or lapse. When you resume, the app re-evaluates whether your plan can still reach your original targets by that date and will tell you the result before you continue.

Pricing Changes:

Lockson Holdings, LLC reserves the right to change subscription pricing. You will be notified of any price changes before they take effect. Continued use of the subscription after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new price.

Refunds:

All purchases are processed through Apple. Refund requests must be directed to Apple in accordance with their refund policy.

8. Data and Device Use

FinishStrong operates entirely on your device.

All training and workout data is stored locally on your device. If you use iCloud, your data may sync across your personal devices through your own iCloud account.

Subscription status is cached locally on your device for offline access. Lockson Holdings, LLC does not receive, store, or process your workout, fitness, or payment data on its own servers. All payment processing is handled by Apple.

Lockson Holdings, LLC does not receive, store, or process your workout or fitness data on its own servers.

You are responsible for managing your device settings, backups, and security protections.

For FinishStrong+ subscribers who choose to connect it, FinishStrong works with Apple Health. If you connect it, FinishStrong reads the dates, duration, distance, and indoor flag of your running and walking workouts from Apple Health (heart rate is not read), so they can count toward your plan. If you turn on the separate setting to save workouts to Apple Health, workouts you complete in FinishStrong are written there too. All of this happens on your device; nothing read from or written to Apple Health is transmitted to Lockson Holdings or stored on any company server. You can turn off importing or saving at any time using the toggles in FinishStrong's Apple Health section in Settings, and you can revoke the connection entirely at any time in iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Health. This feature is part of FinishStrong+; the free tier is unaffected.

9. Analytics and Advertising

FinishStrong uses Google Firebase Analytics to collect anonymous usage data for the purpose of improving the app and supporting advertising campaigns. This data is not linked to your identity and does not include your workout details, training plan data, or personal information.

FinishStrong does not display third-party advertisements within the app. Lockson Holdings, LLC may use aggregated, anonymous analytics data to measure the effectiveness of its own advertising campaigns promoting FinishStrong on external platforms.

FinishStrong does not use third-party tracking services.

For FinishStrong+ subscribers who connect Apple Health, any data read from or written to Apple Health is never used for advertising or marketing of any kind, and never reaches Firebase Analytics or Crashlytics in any form. It stays on your device.

The app performs limited local logging for development and debugging purposes only. This information remains on the device and is not transmitted to Lockson Holdings, LLC or any third party.
