Terms of Service

Last updated: May 10, 2026

Hyperborea is free, open-source software distributed under the MIT License. There is no account to create and nothing to pay for. By downloading or using Hyperborea — the app or this website — you agree to the following terms. If you do not agree, do not use it.

1. License

The Hyperborea app is released under the MIT License. You are free to use, copy, modify, and redistribute it under that license’s terms. The website’s source is likewise open. “Hyperborea” and any logos remain the marks of their owner; the MIT license does not grant trademark rights.

2. As-Is, No Warranty

Hyperborea is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the software or service will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or compatible with any particular equipment, firmware, or third-party platform. Your sole remedy for dissatisfaction is to stop using it.

3. Exercise Risk

Physical exercise carries inherent risks, including injury and death. By using Hyperborea with fitness equipment you voluntarily assume those risks. Hyperborea is not medical advice; consult a physician if you have conditions that could be affected by exercise. Fitness metrics shown or transmitted by Hyperborea are derived from third-party equipment protocols and may be inaccurate.

4. Equipment, Ownership & Interoperability

By installing Hyperborea you represent that you own or lawfully possess the equipment involved. Hyperborea is independently developed interoperability software that communicates with your equipment’s existing hardware interfaces solely to enable interoperability with independently created third-party fitness platforms, consistent with Section 1201(f) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. You acknowledge that installing third-party software on fitness equipment may void manufacturer warranties or violate manufacturer terms, may not be compatible with every model or firmware, and may cause malfunction, damage, degraded performance, or data loss. You are solely responsible for deciding whether to do so.

5. No Affiliation

Hyperborea is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by NordicTrack, iFIT, ProForm, FreeMotion, or any other equipment manufacturer or fitness platform. All product names and trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

6. Third-Party Platforms

Hyperborea talks to third-party fitness platforms (Zwift, Wahoo, Rouvy, and others) over standard protocols. Those platforms may change at any time without notice, and your use of them is governed by their own terms. We are not responsible for any fees or charges they impose.

7. Diagnostics & Feedback

The app’s “Get Help” feature lets you voluntarily upload a diagnostics bundle (random per-install id, app version, logs, device diagnostics). It is used only to help you troubleshoot and is deleted after 30 days — see the Privacy Policy. Any feedback or suggestions you share with us are non-confidential and may be used without restriction.

8. Acceptable Use of This Website

Don’t abuse the site or its APIs — no attempts to disrupt, overload, or circumvent rate limits, and no automated scraping beyond what a normal browser does. We may throttle or block requests that do.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the maintainers and contributors of Hyperborea shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, data, use, or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use the software or service, under any legal theory, even if advised of the possibility. Nothing here excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

10. Changes

We may update these terms; material changes will be reflected in the date above. Continued use after a change means you accept it.
