Last updated: 21 June 2026

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) govern your use of Forge, an on-device workout tracker for iOS and Android (bundle identifier com.brendonroberts.forge), published by Brendon Pomeroy. Please read them carefully.

1. Acceptance

By downloading, installing, or using Forge, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree to them, do not use the app.

2. License

Brendon Pomeroy grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use Forge on devices you own or control, for your personal, non-commercial use, in accordance with these Terms and any applicable platform usage rules. Forge is licensed to you, not sold. You do not acquire ownership of the app or its underlying software, which remain the property of Brendon Pomeroy.

3. Acceptable use

You agree to use Forge only for lawful purposes. You may not:

  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the app, except to the extent that applicable law expressly permits despite this restriction.
  • Copy, modify, distribute, sell, or sublicense the app or any part of it.
  • Use the app in any way that breaks the law or infringes the rights of others.
  • Interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the app or any device it runs on.

4. Your content and programs

You own the data you create in Forge, including your logged sessions and the JSON workout programs you author or import. Forge stores this data on your device and does not claim any ownership of it. You are solely responsible for the content you import into the app and for anything you choose to share with others, including ensuring you have the right to use and share it.

5. Health and fitness disclaimer

Forge is a tool for tracking workouts. It is not medical advice and is not a substitute for professional guidance.

  • Consult a physician or qualified health professional before starting any exercise program or making changes to your training.
  • Exercise carries an inherent risk of injury. By using Forge, you acknowledge and assume all risk of injury or harm arising from your training.
  • Figures such as estimated one-rep maximum (e1RM) and other calculated metrics are estimates for guidance only, not precise measurements, and should not be relied upon as such.

6. No warranty

To the extent permitted by law, Forge is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. Brendon Pomeroy does not warrant that the app will be accurate, uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for any particular purpose. This section is subject to the consumer guarantees described in section 11, which cannot be excluded.

7. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Brendon Pomeroy will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, or goodwill, arising out of or in connection with your use of Forge. Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law, including under the Australian Consumer Law (see section 11).

8. Third-party and platform terms

Your use of Forge is also subject to the terms of the platform you obtained it from — Apple’s App Store terms or Google Play’s terms, as applicable. You agree to comply with those terms.

You acknowledge and agree that Apple Inc. and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that, upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple has the right (and is deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.

9. Apple-required terms

The following terms apply where you obtained Forge from Apple’s App Store:

  • These Terms are entered into between you and Brendon Pomeroy only, and not with Apple. Brendon Pomeroy, not Apple, is solely responsible for Forge and its content.
  • The license granted to you is limited to a non-transferable license to use Forge on any Apple-branded products you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.
  • Brendon Pomeroy, not Apple, is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services for Forge. Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support.
  • In the event of any failure of Forge to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price (if any) for the app. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to Forge, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses attributable to a failure to conform to any warranty are Brendon Pomeroy’s responsibility.
  • Brendon Pomeroy, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to Forge or your possession and use of it, including product liability claims, any claim that the app fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement, and claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation.
  • In the event of any third-party claim that Forge or your possession and use of it infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, Brendon Pomeroy, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such claim.
  • You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

10. Changes to these Terms

Brendon Pomeroy may update these Terms from time to time. The current version will always be posted at this URL with a revised “Last updated” date. Your continued use of Forge after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

11. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia, and you and Brendon Pomeroy submit to the courts of that jurisdiction. Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any guarantee, right, or remedy you may have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
