Terms of Use

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are a legally binding agreement between you and Noland Software LLC doing business as Power Leveling (“we,” “us,” “the App”) regarding your use of the Power Leveling Android application (package com.powerleveling.app).

By downloading, accessing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

Related privacy practices are described in our Privacy Policy:

1. The service

Power Leveling is a fitness tracking and social hype app that:

• Records gym personal records and related metrics,
• Estimates “power level” and other scoring modes,
• Offers unofficial military / service-style fitness calculators, and
• Lets you connect with friends, share feed posts, and send “hype.”
• Lets a signed-in, non-anonymous account share a referral code. When a friend redeems it within the rules of the App, both accounts can receive 7 days ad-free. Days can stack, up to 12 months ahead. Each account can redeem one code. Time already granted keeps its expiry.

Features may change. Some social features require an internet connection and Firebase configuration.

2. Eligibility and accounts

• You must be able to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction and meet any minimum age required for app stores and third-party sign-in providers.
• The App may create or use a Firebase Authentication account (including anonymous sign-in). You may optionally link Google and/or Facebook accounts.
• You are responsible for activity under your account and for any devices you use.
• Provide accurate display names and do not impersonate others.

We may suspend or terminate access if we reasonably believe you violated these Terms, abused the service, or created risk for other users.

3. Not medical advice; fitness risk

The App is for informational and motivational fitness tracking only.

It is not medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or a substitute for a qualified healthcare or training professional.

Exercise and testing can cause injury. You assume all risk arising from your training decisions. Consult a physician before beginning any exercise program, especially if you have a medical condition. Stop activity and seek help if you feel pain, dizziness, or distress.

4. Unofficial military / service scoring — no affiliation

Military and service-branch trackers (including but not limited to Army, Marine Corps, Navy, and Air Force style events) are unofficial approximations for personal training interest.

• Power Leveling is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any U.S. military branch, the Department of Defense, or any government agency.
• Scores, standards, and tables may be incomplete, outdated, or incorrect.
• Do not rely on the App for official physical fitness test results, accession, promotion, retention, or any military or employment decision.
• Always follow your unit’s current official guidance and scorers.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Harass, threaten, or abuse other users;
• Post unlawful, infringing, or harmful content;
• Attempt to access another user’s account or data without authorization;
• Reverse engineer, scrape, or overload the App or its backends except as allowed by law;
• Use the App to misrepresent official military or medical credentials;
• Upload malware or interfere with the App’s operation;
• Create extra or fake accounts to farm referral bonuses or otherwise cheat the ad-free grant;
• Share a personal API key, or use a key to access another person’s data.

Friend codes, QR links, and feed posts you share are your responsibility. Only connect with people you trust.

6. User content

You retain ownership of content you create (such as display names, bios, feed posts, and proof videos you choose to attach).

You grant us a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive license to host, store, transmit, and display content you submit to cloud features as needed to operate friends/feed functionality and, if you subscribe to Pro, to store the workout backup you turn on. Proof videos stay on your device. Other local-only content remains on your device unless you publish related highlights or enable Pro backup.

You represent that you have the rights to content you submit and that it does not violate law or others’ rights.

Reporting and moderation. You can report a post or user from the feed and block users you don’t want to see. Reports are reviewed by us, and we may remove content, limit features or suspend accounts that violate these Terms. To report a problem or ask for content to be removed, email brendancribbs@nolandsoftwarellc.com.

7. Third-party services

The App may integrate Google Firebase (including Cloud Firestore and Cloud Functions), Google Sign-In, Facebook Login, Google AdMob, Google Play Billing, and the Android system share sheet. Those services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies. Ads, the one-time Remove ads purchase, and the optional Pro subscription are described in the Privacy Policy and in Section 17. We are not responsible for third-party services we do not control.

8. Intellectual property

The App, including its name, UI, scoring presentation, and software (excluding your content and third-party components), is owned by us or our licensors. These Terms do not transfer ownership to you. You receive a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for lawful personal purposes.

9. AS-IS disclaimer

THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that scores are accurate, that the App will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that data will never be lost. Keep your own backups of important training logs if needed.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimer limitations; in those places, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

10. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE AND OUR SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE APP.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR (B) USD $50.

These limits apply even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose.

11. Indemnity

You agree to defend and indemnify us against claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your misuse of the App, your content, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

12. Termination

You may stop using the App at any time (uninstall / clear data). We may stop providing the App or suspend accounts as described above. Provisions that by nature should survive (including disclaimers, limitations, indemnity, and governing law) will survive termination.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas and applicable United States federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Courts located in Texas shall have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes, except that we may seek injunctive relief in any jurisdiction. If you are a consumer with mandatory local protections, those rights may still apply.

14. Changes

We may update these Terms by posting a revised version (including in-app links to the hosted page) and updating the Effective date. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance. Current Terms:

16. Miscellaneous

If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. These Terms are the entire agreement regarding the App, superseding prior understandings on that subject. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a reorganization or transfer of the App.

17. Power Leveling Pro

Pro is an optional auto-renewing subscription sold through Google Play (product id pro).

• Base plans are monthly and yearly. The price shown in the App is the localized price returned by Google Play. The App does not set that charge. A 7-day free trial, when Play offers it, is configured in Play Console. After the trial, the subscription renews automatically at the then-current Play price until you cancel.
• You can cancel anytime in Google Play → Payments and subscriptions → Subscriptions. Canceling stops the next renewal. Pro stays on until the end of the period already paid for, including a trial that has not ended.
• If a payment fails, Google Play may keep the subscription in a grace period (Pro stays on) or place it on hold (Pro turns off, including cloud backup and the personal API, until payment is fixed). A paused subscription also turns Pro off. An expired subscription has no Pro access.
• Pro removes ads in the App, enables a private cloud backup of workouts, sets, personal records, and body metrics (not proof videos), and lets you create personal API keys. The one-time Remove ads purchase and referral ad-free time are separate. They do not include backup or the API.
• Cloud backup is stored in Firebase under your account. Deleting your account deletes that backup, the stored purchase token, and your API keys. See the Privacy Policy and https://power-leveling-bud.web.app/delete-account.
• A personal API key is shown once. We store only a SHA-256 hash. You can revoke a key in Settings. You may keep up to 3 active keys. Keys are limited to 300 requests per day and 3,000 per month. The API is read-only and is not medical advice.
• Google Play processes payment. We do not receive your full card number. Restore or manage the subscription from the Pro screen in the App, which can open Google Play’s subscription page.
