Terms and Conditions

These Terms and Conditions are effective as of March 31, 2025

‍

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY

The following terms and conditions (the “Terms and Conditions”) govern your use of the BE-FIT mobile application (the “App”). The App provides guided exercise programs to persons recovering from medical procedures or hospitalization (the “Programs”).

These Terms and Conditions form an agreement between 2294804 Alberta Ltd. (the “Company”) and you. The term "you" refers to the person or entity using the App or taking part in the Programs. A copy of these Terms and Conditions may be downloaded, saved and printed for your reference. By clicking "I AGREE" or similar electronic acceptance, you agree with these Terms and Conditions.

If you do not accept and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions or our Privacy Policy (defined below), please do not use the App or participate in the Programs.

You may use the App only in compliance with these Terms and Conditions and all applicable local, national, and international laws, rules and regulations. If you use the App, you represent that you are of the age of majority in the jurisdiction in which you reside, and that you have full power, capacity and authority to agree to these Terms and Conditions and have not been previously suspended or removed from using the App. Do not use the App if you are under 18 years of age. If at any time the Company becomes aware that you are below the age of majority, we reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to suspend or terminate your User Account. If you are downloading App on behalf of another person, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind such person to these Terms and Conditions.

The Company reserves the right to amend any term of these Terms and Conditions at any time by giving 30 days’ notice. Any notices regarding modifications to these Terms and Conditions, will be in a written form and provided to you: (i) by the Company via email (in each case to the address that you provide); or (ii) via the App. For notices made by email, the date of receipt will be deemed the date on which such notice is transmitted. You are not obliged to continue using the App after an amendment to these Terms and Conditions is made; however, in the event you choose to not accept the changes, you must immediately cease using the App and participating in the Programs and provide written notice to the App that you are terminating these Terms and Conditions. Your continued use of the App following any amendment shall be deemed to be your acceptance of the amended Terms and Conditions, and waiver of any additional notice requirements.

The Company reserves the right to change any information, material or content contained on or provided through the App (the "Content") at any time, and from time to time, without notice. Content does not include your Personal Data.

THE APP AND THE PROGRAMS DO NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE. The information provided on the App is for educational and informational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, nor should it be considered as a substitute for any clinical support system that exists in a healthcare setting. Always consult with your healthcare professional before relying on any information or acting on any recommendations provided as part of the App or sent to you in any email by the Company. If you have any healthcare-related questions, please call or see your physician or other qualified healthcare provider without delay.
