Waiver & Safety Disclaimer

Version 1.0 — last updated August 2, 2026

This document is part of our Terms of Service. Please read it carefully before you or any child in your household uses Built Different. It describes real risks and it affects your legal rights.

It applies to you, to every child you add to your account now or later, and to every part of the Service: live classes, on-demand workouts, challenges and team activities, and any activity you log yourself.

1. What Built Different is — and what it is not

Built Different delivers fitness classes and workouts to children through a screen, in your home or wherever you choose to use it. Please understand what that means in practice:

• No one is watching your child. Our instructors cannot see your child, cannot correct their form, cannot tell when they are struggling, and cannot intervene.
• We cannot respond to an emergency. We have no presence where your child is exercising. In an emergency, call your local emergency number — not us.
• Our programming is general, not personal. It is not designed around your child's health, injuries, ability, or environment, and we do not assess any of those.
• We are not a healthcare provider, a school, a camp, or a childcare service, and no instructor is acting as your child's physician, physical therapist, or personal trainer.

2. Assumption of risk

Physical activity carries risks that cannot be designed away, no matter how carefully a workout is programmed or how closely a child is supervised. By allowing a child to participate, you acknowledge that you understand and accept these risks on your own behalf and on your child's behalf. They include, without limitation:

• Slips, trips, falls, and collisions with floors, walls, furniture, doorways, pets, or other people.
• Muscle strains, sprains, joint injuries, back and neck injuries, dislocations, and broken bones.
• Injury from equipment, from improvised substitutes for equipment, or from equipment that is the wrong size, worn out, or incorrectly set up.
• Overexertion, dehydration, overheating, fainting, nausea, and, rarely, serious cardiac or respiratory events — including in children with no known condition.
• Aggravation of a pre-existing injury or medical condition, whether or not it is known to you.
• Injury from performing a movement with incorrect form, from attempting a movement beyond a child's ability, or from a child imitating something they saw without doing the preparation that came before it.
• Risks created by the space you choose: hard, uneven, wet, or slippery surfaces; low ceilings; limited room; poor lighting; outdoor conditions and traffic.
• Permanent disability and death, in rare cases.

This list is not exhaustive. You accept the risk of injuries and losses of a kind not listed here, including those that are not foreseeable.

3. Medical clearance

Talk to your child's physician before they begin, and follow that advice. We strongly recommend a medical check-up before starting any new exercise program. It is especially important if your child has, or may have, a heart condition, high blood pressure, asthma or another respiratory condition, a seizure disorder, diabetes, a bone, joint, or muscle problem, a recent injury or surgery, a concussion, an eating disorder, or any condition that a doctor has previously said should limit their physical activity — or if they are taking medication that affects heart rate, balance, hydration, or heat tolerance.

We do not screen for any of this. We do not collect your child's medical history, and we could not evaluate it if we did. Deciding that a child is healthy enough to participate is entirely your responsibility as their parent or guardian, and it is a decision you should make with a qualified professional rather than with us.

Stop immediately and seek medical attention if a child experiences chest pain or pressure, an irregular heartbeat, dizziness or light-headedness, unusual shortness of breath, blurred vision, confusion, severe or sharp pain, numbness, or nausea — or if something simply does not seem right. Do not encourage a child to push through those signs.

4. Your responsibilities as the supervising adult

A responsible adult must supervise every child during every activity. By using the Service you agree that you will:

• Be present and able to respond immediately, or arrange for another responsible adult to be.
• Check the space before each session — clear of furniture, obstacles, sharp corners, and trip hazards, with a non-slip surface, enough room to move in every direction, and enough height overhead.
• Make sure the child is properly dressed, in supportive footwear where appropriate, and has water available.
• Check that any equipment is appropriate for the child's size and age, in good condition, and used as intended.
• Judge whether each workout is right for your child's age, size, ability, and how they are feeling that day, and skip, substitute, or stop anything that is not.
• Watch for fatigue, poor form, and the warning signs above, and stop the activity when you see them.
• Make sure a child never exercises unsupervised where a fall or a medical event could go unnoticed.

Nothing in our programming, our badges, our streaks, our challenges, or our leaderboards should override your judgment. If continuing would push a child past what is safe for them, stop — the rewards are not worth an injury, and no feature of the Service is intended to suggest otherwise.

5. No medical advice

Everything in the Service is general fitness and educational content. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or a substitute for care from a qualified professional, and no relationship of doctor and patient, or of therapist and client, is created by using it. Never disregard or delay professional medical advice because of something in the Service. If a healthcare professional's advice conflicts with anything here or in a workout, follow the professional.

7. Indemnity

You agree to reimburse us for reasonable losses and costs we incur from a claim brought because you did not meet the responsibilities in section 4, or because you allowed a child to participate against medical advice. This does not apply to any claim arising from our own gross negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct, and it does not apply where the law does not permit it.

8. If part of this is unenforceable

Each paragraph of this document stands on its own. If a court finds any paragraph — or any part of a paragraph — invalid or unenforceable, that paragraph is limited only as far as necessary, or removed, and everything else remains in full effect. In particular, if the release of a child's claims in paragraph 6.2 is unenforceable in your state, that does not affect paragraph 6.1, the assumption of risk in section 2, or your responsibilities in section 4.

9. How you accept this, and what we record

You accept this waiver by ticking the box during signup, before your account is created. Acceptance is required — you cannot create an account without it. We record that you accepted, the date and time, and the version of this document you were shown, and you can see that record in your account.

If we make a material change, we will publish the updated version here with a new version number and ask you to accept it again before you continue using the Service. Adding a new child to your account applies this waiver to that child as well.

By accepting, you confirm that you are at least 18, that you are the parent or legal guardian of each child on your account with authority to agree on their behalf, that you have read and understood this document, that you have had the chance to ask questions about it, and that you are agreeing to it voluntarily and not relying on any promise that is not written here.
