(a) uses a licensed copy of the Visualcoaching Software (Pro or Client version) made available by a third party licensee of that software; and/or
(b) accesses or uses the online version of the Visualcoaching Software hosted at Visualcoaching website (at www.visualcoaching.com or as otherwise notified by Visualcoaching from time to time),
(collectively, the Visualcoaching Services). In consideration of your access to and/or use of any of the Visualcoaching Services, you agree to be bound by and abide by the terms and conditions set out below.
1. VISUALCOACHING SERVICES
1.1 Access to Visualcoaching Services. This contract is void where prohibited by law. You must be at least 18 years of age to access or use the Visualcoaching Services, or have the permission of a parent, guardian or adult over the age of 18. You must be a qualified fitness or medical professional to prescribe any aspect of the Visualcoaching Services to another person.
1.2 Visualcoaching is not directed to children, and we expect that any use by children will only be done with the guidance, supervision and consent of their parents, guardians and/or authorized school officials. Visualcoaching relies on parents and guardians to ensure that minors only use Visualcoaching if they can understand their rights and responsibilities as laid out in these Terms of Service and in our Privacy Policy.
In the event that you are a school, district or teacher in the United States and want your students, who are under the age of 13, to use Visualcoaching, you agree that you are responsible for complying with the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA") and, to the extent applicable, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ("FERPA"). This means that you must notify the students' parents/guardians of the personally identifiable information that Visualcoaching will collect, and that you will obtain parental/guardian consent before your students establish accounts or use Visualcoaching. When obtaining such consent, you must provide parents/guardians with a copy of our Privacy Policy. You must keep all consents on file and provide them to us if we request them. For more information on complying with COPPA, see the Federal Trade Commission's website. If you are located outside of the United States, we will rely upon you to obtain any required consent or approval from the parent or guardian of any student covered by similar laws, and, as a condition to your and your students' use of Visualcoaching, you agree that you will be responsible for complying with such laws.

(a) a computer system that meets the minimum system requirements specified by Visualcoaching from time to time; and
(b) (where all or part of the Visualcoaching Services are provided by Visualcoaching via the internet) an account for the provision of internet services (ISP Services) with an internet service provider (ISP) in Australia.
Your ISP (and not Visualcoaching) is responsible for the provision of ISP Services pursuant to any agreement between you and that ISP in respect of those ISP Services.
1.4 No guarantee of access. You acknowledge and agree that to the extent possible under the law, Visualcoaching makes no representations, warranties or guarantees in relation to the availability, continuity, reliability, accuracy, currency or security of the Visualcoaching Services or any ISP Services.
