The rules for using BarkBell: who can use it, purchases, your content, and the limits of our responsibility.
These Terms are an agreement between you and Carlos Antonio Bernal Rodriguez ("we", "us") about the BarkBell app. By using the app you agree to these Terms, the Privacy Policy and the Health & safety disclaimer. If you do not agree, do not use the app. Effective November 2, 2026.
You must be at least 13 years old. If you are under 18 (or the age of majority where you live), you may use the app only with permission from a parent or guardian, who agrees to these Terms for you and is responsible for your use, including purchases.
We give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to download and use the app on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use, as allowed by these Terms and the rules of the store you got it from. The app is licensed, not sold.
You may not copy, modify, translate, reverse engineer, decompile or take apart the app (except where the law allows it), remove our notices, rent, sell or redistribute it, or use it to build a competing product.
You can use the app with Sign in with Apple or as a guest. Your information is stored on your device (see the Privacy Policy), so you are responsible for keeping your device secure and for anything done with the app on it. We cannot recover data from a lost phone or after you delete it.
Assumption of risk. Exercise involves a risk of injury, illness and, in rare cases, death. You decide what exercise you do and how. You voluntarily accept those risks and use the app and its information at your own risk. Numbers in the app (calories, macros, ranks, one-rep maxes, heart rate, steps, recovery) are estimates and may be wrong.
Do not use the app to break the law, to harm yourself or others, to infringe anyone's rights, to interfere with the app or its security, to cheat or exploit bugs to get items or bones, or to share content that is unlawful, hateful, harassing or sexual. Do not share pictures of other people without their permission.
The app and everything in it, including the BarkBell name and logo, the Milo character and his artwork and animations, the exercise demos, plans, Coach courses, text, design and code, belong to us or our licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not give you any rights to them except the licence above. Open-source parts are used under their own licences (see Open-source licenses in the app). Third-party programs shown in the app belong to their creators.
Your workouts, notes, measurements and the pictures you create are yours. They stay on your device, and we do not claim ownership of them or receive them. When you share a workout picture, you are responsible for what you share and where. If you send us feedback or ideas, we may use them without owing you anything.
BarkBell Pro is an optional auto-renewing subscription, and bone packs are optional one-time purchases. They are sold through the Apple App Store or Google Play and are subject to the store's terms and our Subscription & purchase terms, which are part of these Terms.
We may update, change, suspend or stop the app or any feature at any time, for example to fix problems, follow the law or improve it. Some updates may be needed to keep using the app.
As far as the law allows, the app is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not promise that the app will be error-free, always available, or that it will give you any particular result (such as strength, muscle or weight change). Some places do not allow these exclusions, so some may not apply to you.
As far as the law allows, we (and our owners, contractors and licensors) are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any personal injury, illness, loss of data, loss of profits or loss of goodwill, arising from or related to the app, its information or these Terms, even if we were told it might happen.
As far as the law allows, our total liability for all claims about the app is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the app in the 12 months before the claim and (b) CA$50.
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, such as for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence where the law does not allow it to be limited, or your rights as a consumer that cannot be waived.
As far as the law allows, you agree to defend and compensate us for claims, losses and costs (including reasonable legal fees) that come from your misuse of the app or your breaking these Terms or the law.
You can stop at any time by deleting your data and the app. We may end or suspend your licence if you break these Terms. When the Terms end, you must stop using the app. Sections 5, 7, 8 and 11 to 18 continue after the Terms end.
We may update these Terms. We will change the effective date and, for important changes, ask you to agree in the app. If you keep using the app after a change, you accept the new Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the app.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada that apply there, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The courts of British Columbia have jurisdiction over any dispute, except where the consumer protection laws of the place you live give you the right to bring a claim there. The UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
If you live in Quebec, the EU, the UK or another place with mandatory consumer laws, nothing in these Terms takes away rights those laws give you.
If any part of these Terms cannot be enforced, the rest stays in effect. If we do not enforce a right, we do not give it up. You may not transfer these Terms; we may transfer them to someone who takes over the app. These Terms, with the Privacy Policy, the Health & safety disclaimer and the Subscription & purchase terms, are the whole agreement between us about the app.
If you got the app from the Apple App Store, these extra terms apply and win over anything else in these Terms:
If you got the app from Google Play, the Google Play Terms of Service also apply to your download and purchases. Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the app. If these Terms conflict with the Google Play Terms of Service on purchases, refunds or payments, the Google Play terms apply.
