fin Terms of Use

The rules,
kept short

Version: 12 August 2026

This is a translation for your convenience. The legally binding version is the German one at nutzungsbedingungen.html. In case of any discrepancy, the German text prevails.

In short

  • You need an account and must be at least 16 years old.
  • You buy the subscription from Apple, not from us – and you cancel it there too.
  • You are responsible for what you write. Your content stays yours.
  • Sessions from other apps are imported by you – never automatically.
  • fin is not a substitute for medical advice or coaching.
  • Insults, advertising and other people’s content lead to suspension.

Provider and scope

The provider of the fin app is:

Tim Bodon · gymmittim
Benzstraße 5
48683 Ahaus, Germany
Email: support@fin-tracker.de

These terms apply to the use of the fin app on iPhone and Apple Watch as well as to the web version. By registering you accept them.

Deviating terms apply only if we have expressly agreed to them in writing.

What fin is

fin is an app for recording and analysing training. You create training plans, log sets, repetitions and weights, see your history in charts, and can share completed sessions with people who follow you.

In addition, you can import workouts that other apps have stored in Apple Health into your fin history, one at a time. Importing never happens automatically, only when you tap the session in question.

The range of features continues to develop. There is no entitlement to the continued existence of individual features as long as the core of the service remains.

Account and minimum age

You need an account to use fin. Your details must be accurate and you keep them up to date.

Use is permitted from the age of 16. Processing your training and health data requires explicit consent, which in Germany can be validly given by the person themselves from the age of 16.

Do not share your credentials. An account is intended for one person. If you suspect that someone is accessing it without authorisation, tell us and change your password.

We may change or block usernames that infringe third-party rights, impersonate other people, or are offensive.

Subscription and trial

Who your contract is with

You purchase the subscription through the App Store. The purchase contract is concluded between you and Apple, not between you and us. Apple’s terms apply to payment, invoicing, cancellation and refunds.

You will not receive an invoice or a payment request from us. We see neither your payment details nor your billing address.

Trial period

New users can try fin free for 30 days. The trial is tied to your Apple ID and can be used only once per Apple ID – regardless of how many fin accounts you create.

If you do not cancel at least 24 hours before it ends, the trial converts into the subscription you selected.

Term and renewal

The subscription renews automatically for the selected period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it ends. You cancel in your Apple Account settings under Apple Account → Subscriptions. Cancelling with us is neither possible nor necessary for this.

After it ends

When your subscription ends, your existing training history remains viewable. Recording new sessions and the paid features are then no longer available. We do not delete your data automatically.

Price changes

Apple notifies you of price changes for existing subscriptions in good time. They only take effect once you agree or – depending on the arrangement – do not object. This too is handled by Apple.

Licence

We grant you a simple, non-transferable right to use fin for your own private purposes for as long as this contract runs.

You may not reverse-engineer, modify, reproduce, rent out or sublicense the app, or extract content by automated means. Use for the commercial purposes of third parties – for example as a coaching tool for paying clients – is also not permitted without our prior consent.

The trademark, name, logo, design and source code of fin are protected.

Your content

Content you create in fin – training data, names, profile picture, bio, comments – remains yours.

So that we can display it technically, you grant us a simple, geographically unrestricted and free-of-charge right to store it, reproduce it and show it to the people you have released it to. This right ends when you delete the content – except for copies already made by third parties and technical backups until they are overwritten.

This also applies to workouts you import from Apple Health: after importing they are treated like your own entries.

You confirm that you hold the necessary rights to all content you upload. This applies in particular to profile pictures: do not upload photos showing other people without their consent.

Note that shared workouts contain health data. Consider who should see them before sharing.

Rules of conduct

fin is for training. The following in particular are not permitted:

  • Insults, threats, harassment and incitement
  • Discriminatory, violent or sexualised content
  • Content promoting eating disorders, self-harm or dangerous practices
  • Advertising, spam, chain messages and poaching users
  • False identity details and impersonating other people
  • Content that infringes third-party rights
  • Automated access, manipulation of rankings or records, circumventing technical protection measures
  • Anything that breaks applicable law

We are not obliged to review content in advance. However, we use automated filters and follow up on reports.

Reporting, blocking, suspension

Using the menu on every post, comment and profile, you can report content and block accounts. We review reports promptly.

In the event of breaches of these terms we may – graduated by severity – remove individual content, restrict features, temporarily suspend the account or close it permanently. In cases of serious breaches and repeat offences we suspend immediately.

We inform you of any measure and state the reason, as far as we are legally able to. You can object to the decision within six months – informally to support@fin-tracker.de. We will then review the case again. Your right to turn to an out-of-court dispute settlement body under Art. 21 of the Digital Services Act, or to a court, remains unaffected.

Health notice

fin is not a medical device and does not replace medical advice. The app records what you enter and evaluates it computationally. It does not make diagnoses, does not give treatment recommendations, and does not assess whether a particular training is suitable for you.

Training readiness is an orientation value calculated from your data, not a medical finding. Do not rely on it to answer health questions.

Values and workouts originating from Apple Health or third-party apps are reproduced unchanged. We cannot vouch for their accuracy or completeness, as we neither collect nor verify them.

Before taking up or changing a training routine, have a doctor confirm that you are physically fit for it – particularly in the case of pre-existing conditions, complaints, injuries, during pregnancy, or after a longer break. Stop training and seek medical advice if you notice pain, dizziness, shortness of breath or other symptoms.

You train at your own responsibility. We are not liable for injuries and health damage arising from your training – subject to the provisions in section 11.

Availability

We aim for high availability but do not owe uninterrupted accessibility. Maintenance work, disruptions at service providers and events outside our control can lead to interruptions.

The app requires an up-to-date operating system and an internet connection. You bear the cost of your own connection.

Back up your data regularly using the export function. We are not a substitute for your own backup.

Liability

We are liable without limitation in cases of intent and gross negligence, and for injury to life, body or health.

In cases of simple negligence we are liable only for breach of an obligation whose fulfilment makes the proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on whose observance you may regularly rely. In such cases liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the contract.

Liability is otherwise excluded. Liability under the German Product Liability Act remains unaffected.

We are not liable for content posted by users as long as we have no knowledge of a specific infringement. Once we become aware, we remove it promptly.

Term and termination

The contract of use for the app runs for an indefinite period. You can end it at any time by deleting your account: Profile → Settings → Delete account.

Please note: deleting your account does not end your subscription. You cancel that separately in your Apple Account settings – otherwise it continues.

We may terminate the contract with 30 days’ notice to the end of the month. The right to extraordinary termination for good cause remains unaffected; good cause exists in particular in the case of serious breaches of section 7.

If we discontinue the service permanently, we will inform you at least 30 days in advance and give you the opportunity to export your data.

Changes to these terms

We may change these terms if the legal situation, case law or the range of features changes, or if we need to close gaps.

We inform you of changes at least 30 days in advance, in the app or by email. If you do not object before they take effect, they are deemed accepted. We point this out separately in the notification. If you object, we may terminate the contract with effect from the date the changes take effect.

Final provisions

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Mandatory consumer protection provisions of your country of residence remain unaffected.

We are neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

If any provision is invalid, the rest of the contract remains effective.

Apple is not a party to this contract and is not responsible for it. Apple is, however, entitled to enforce these terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
