Terms of Service

Last updated: January 2025

Welcome to The Shed Club. By using our service, you agree to these terms. We've tried to keep them clear and fair.

What The Shed Club is

The Shed Club is a supportive weight tracking app for small groups of friends. It's designed for accountability and encouragement, not medical advice. We're not healthcare professionals, and this app isn't a substitute for professional medical guidance.

  • You need a valid email address to create an account
  • You're responsible for keeping your account secure
  • You must be at least 18 years old to use the service

  • You own your content
  • You give us permission to display it to your Shed members
  • You're responsible for what you post

  • By joining a Shed, you agree to share your weekly changes (according to your privacy settings) with other members
  • You can leave a Shed at any time

Health disclaimer

The Shed Club is not a medical service.

We don't provide health advice, diagnoses, or treatment recommendations. The app is for tracking and social accountability only.

If you have concerns about your weight, diet, or health, please consult a qualified healthcare professional. If you're struggling with disordered eating or body image issues, please seek appropriate support.

Service availability

We do our best to keep The Shed Club running smoothly, but we can't guarantee 100% uptime. We may need to perform maintenance, and things occasionally break. We're not liable for any losses resulting from service interruptions.

Changes to the service

We're always working to improve The Shed Club. We may add, change, or remove features at any time. If we make significant changes that affect you, we'll try to give you advance notice.

Account termination

You can delete your account at any time from the Settings page. We may also suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms.

When an account is terminated, we'll delete personal data according to our Privacy Policy.

Limitation of liability

The Shed Club is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we're not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the United Kingdom. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts of England and Wales.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. We'll notify you of significant changes via email or in-app notification. Continued use of the service after changes means you accept the new terms.
