Terms of Service
Last updated: 26 August 2026
This is the current version of the Kova AI Terms of Service, and it applies to your use of the app and website today. If anything here is unclear, or you would like a copy for your records, email us at supportkovaai@gmail.com and we will help.
These Terms are the agreement between you and the business behind Kova AI. They explain what you can expect from us, what we expect from you, and the limits of what a fitness app can safely do. Please read section 2 on health and safety carefully, it is the most important part of this page.
1. Agreement to these Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and Ben Ari Shoshan, trading as Kova AI ("Kova AI", "we", "us", "our").
They cover the Kova AI mobile app, the AI Coach, the body scan feature, our website at getkovaai.com, and anything else we offer through them. We call all of that the "Service".
By starting the onboarding quiz, creating an account, or using the Service in any other way, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
The app creates a guest account for you the moment you begin the onboarding quiz, so these Terms apply from that point, even before you sign in with Apple or Google.
2. Health and safety
Read this section before you train.
Kova AI is a fitness app, not a healthcare provider. We are not doctors, physiotherapists, dietitians or any other kind of licensed health professional, and we do not practice medicine. Nothing in the Service is medical advice.
- Nothing in the app is medical advice. The workout plans, the AI Coach, the body scan feedback and every other suggestion in Kova AI are general fitness information. They are not a diagnosis, a treatment, a rehabilitation program or nutritional advice, and they are not a substitute for care from a qualified professional who has actually examined you.
- Talk to a physician before you start. Get medical clearance before you begin Kova AI or any exercise program. This matters even more if you have a heart condition, high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma, an eating disorder, an existing or past injury, joint problems or any chronic condition, if you are pregnant or recently gave birth, if you are recovering from surgery or illness, or if you take medication that can affect exercise, heart rate or balance.
- Telling us about your injuries does not make training safe. The health considerations you enter at onboarding, such as issues with your back, knees or arms and shoulders, help the app adjust your plan. They are self reported, we cannot verify them, and no software can judge whether an exercise is safe for your particular body. Only a qualified professional who examines you can do that.
- Stop immediately if something feels wrong. Stop training and seek medical attention if you feel pain, chest pressure or tightness, dizziness, faintness, nausea, unusual shortness of breath, blurred vision or an irregular heartbeat. If you think you are having a medical emergency, call your local emergency number right away. Do not use the app to diagnose or manage a medical emergency.
- Physical training carries real risk. Exercise, and resistance training in particular, can cause injury, including serious injury, permanent disability and, in rare cases, death. By using Kova AI you accept that risk voluntarily. You are responsible for warming up, using correct technique, choosing loads you can control, inspecting your equipment, training in a safe space and using a spotter for heavy lifts.
- Progress at your own pace. A plan the app generates is a suggestion, not an instruction. Reduce the weight, skip an exercise, take a rest day or swap a movement whenever your body tells you to. Never push through pain because the app suggested a number.
- Never delay professional advice because of the app. Do not ignore or postpone advice from your doctor or physiotherapist because of something you read in Kova AI.
If you are unwilling to accept the risks described above, do not use the Service.
3. Who can use Kova AI
You must be at least 18 years old to use Kova AI.
Kova AI processes information about your body and your health, and we have chosen not to collect that kind of information from minors. The Service is not intended for anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly allow anyone under 18 to create an account. If we learn that an account belongs to someone under 18, we will delete it. If you believe someone under 18 is using the Service, please email supportkovaai@gmail.com.
If the law where you live sets a higher minimum age for consenting to the processing of personal data or for entering into a contract, that higher age applies to you instead.
By using the Service you confirm that you are at least 18 years old, that you are legally able to enter into this agreement, and that no applicable law bars you from using the Service.
4. Your account
How your account is created. When you start the onboarding quiz, the app creates a guest account so your answers are saved as you go. When you then sign in with Apple or Google, that guest account is linked to your Apple or Google identity, so you keep everything you have already entered. Guest accounts are pseudonymous, not anonymous, and the Privacy Policy explains how long we keep them.
Keep your sign in secure. Your Kova AI account is tied to your Apple or Google account, so protecting that account protects this one. You are responsible for activity that happens under your account. Tell us at supportkovaai@gmail.com if you believe someone else has access to it.
Give us accurate information. Your plan, targets and progress are built from what you tell us. Inaccurate details, especially about your age, weight or health considerations, will produce a plan that does not suit you and may be unsafe. Please keep your profile up to date.
One account per person. Do not share your account, and do not sell, transfer or let someone else use it.
You can delete it at any time. Go to Settings and choose Delete Account. See section 16 for what that does.
5. What Kova AI provides
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and revocable license to install and use Kova AI on a device you own or control, for your own personal and non-commercial use.
The Service currently includes onboarding that builds your training profile, workout plans, workout logging with weight and reps for every set, weigh-in and personal record tracking, custom workouts and exercises you create yourself, exercise demonstration videos, an AI Coach that offers training suggestions, and a body scan you record on your own phone.
Kova AI is available on iOS. An Android version is planned but not promised, and no date is guaranteed.
We are actively developing the app. We may add, change, limit or remove features, and we may change how a feature works. We do not guarantee that any particular feature will exist forever. If we remove something significant that you paid for, see section 16 for how that is handled.
We do not promise results. Kova AI gives you a plan and information, not an outcome. Whether you lose weight, gain muscle, get stronger or change how you look depends on things we do not control and cannot see: how consistently you train, how hard you work, what you eat, how you sleep, your medical history, your medication, your age, your genetics and your starting point. Two people can follow the same plan and end up in very different places.
Anything in the app that looks forward is an illustration, not a prediction and not a promise. That includes goal dates, projected progress, charts of where you could be, percentages toward a target, calorie or weight estimates, and any comparison between you and other users. We generate them from the answers you give us, using general assumptions. They are not personalised medical or nutritional forecasts, they are not commitments, and you should not rely on them for any decision that matters to your health or your money.
Individual results vary, and no specific result is guaranteed. Any example, screenshot, review or story we show you describes one person and is not a typical or expected outcome. If a plan is not working for you, or something hurts, stop and speak to a qualified professional as described in section 2.
6. Subscriptions and billing
Some parts of the Service require a paid subscription.
Who bills you. Subscriptions are sold and billed by the Apple App Store, and by Google Play once the Android app launches. We do not charge you directly and we never see or store your card details. Your purchase is also governed by the terms of the store you bought it from. Once subscriptions launch, we will use RevenueCat to check and manage subscription status on our side.
Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically for the same period at the then current price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your store account is charged for the renewal within the 24 hours before the current period ends.
How to cancel. Cancel in your store account, not in the Kova AI app. On iOS, open the Settings app, tap your name, then Subscriptions. On Android, open Google Play and go to Subscriptions. Canceling stops the next renewal, and you keep access until the end of the period you have already paid for. Deleting the Kova AI app does not cancel your subscription and does not stop the charges.
Free trials and introductory offers. If we offer a free trial or an introductory price, its length and price are shown before you confirm the purchase. Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends, it converts automatically into a paid subscription at the standard price. Where the app store requires it, any unused part of a free trial is forfeited if you buy a subscription during that trial.
Refunds. Because Apple and Google take the payment, they also handle refunds under their own policies. We cannot issue a refund for a store purchase ourselves. For Apple, use reportaproblem.apple.com. For Google, use the Google Play help pages. Where the consumer law that applies to you gives you a right to withdraw from the purchase or to a refund, that right stands, and we will help you exercise it if the store makes it difficult.
Price changes. We may change subscription prices. A change takes effect from your next billing period. Where the app store rules or your local law require it, the store will notify you and, if needed, ask you to agree before the new price applies.
No refunds for unused time. Except where the law or the store's policy says otherwise, a subscription period you have already paid for is not refundable if you stop using the app or delete your account part way through.
7. Acceptable use
When you use Kova AI, you agree not to:
- use the Service for anything unlawful, fraudulent, harmful or deceptive;
- give false information when you sign up, or impersonate anyone else;
- create or submit content that is illegal, abusive, hateful, harassing, sexually explicit or infringing, including in custom workout names and custom exercise names;
- copy, scrape, download, screen record, re-host or redistribute any part of the Service, and in particular the exercise demonstration videos;
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise try to obtain the source code of the app, except to the narrow extent the law expressly allows despite this restriction;
- use bots, scrapers or other automated means to access the Service, or try to get around rate limits, paywalls, authentication or any other security measure;
- probe, attack, overload or disrupt the Service, its servers or its network, or try to access data that does not belong to you;
- use the Service, or its AI outputs, to build, train or improve a competing product, dataset or model;
- resell, rent, sublicense or otherwise make the Service available to third parties, or use it to run a paid coaching business for other people, without our written permission;
- use the AI Coach to try to obtain medical, legal, financial or other professional advice, or to generate harmful content.
We may investigate suspected breaches and take action, including removing content, limiting features and suspending or closing accounts.
8. Your content
"Your Content" means everything you put into the Service: your onboarding answers, workout logs, weigh-ins, custom workouts and custom exercise names, body scan recordings, bug reports and messages you send us.
You own it. We do not claim ownership of Your Content.
The license you give us. You grant us a limited, worldwide, royalty free license to host, store, copy, transmit and process Your Content solely in order to operate the Service for you: to build and adapt your plan, show your history and records, generate feedback, respond to support requests and keep the Service secure. We do not use Your Content for advertising, and we do not sell it. The license ends when you delete the content or your account, apart from copies that remain briefly in routine backups and anything we are legally required to keep.
Body scan recordings are different. Your body scan video stays on your device and is never uploaded to us, so this license does not reach the video itself. It does cover the three still images your phone takes from each scan, which are sent to our AI provider for a single feedback request and are not stored by us. See the Privacy Policy for the detail.
Your promises. You confirm that you have the right to submit Your Content and that it does not break the law or infringe anyone else's rights.
Removal. We may remove content that breaches these Terms or the law.
Keep your own copies. Software has bugs, phones get lost and account deletion is permanent. If your training history matters to you, ask us for a copy of your data before you delete anything.
9. Our intellectual property
The Service, including the Kova AI name and logo, the app and website design, the software, the text, the interface, the plan generation logic and everything else we provide, is owned by Ben Ari Shoshan or by our licensors, and is protected by copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws.
Exercise demonstration videos are licensed content. The demonstration videos in the app are licensed to us by third parties. They are provided so you can watch them inside the Kova AI app, and for nothing else. You may not download, extract, rip, screen record, copy, republish, distribute, sell or reuse that footage outside the app for any purpose, commercial or personal. No part of these Terms gives you any right in that footage beyond viewing it in the app.
These Terms do not transfer any ownership to you. Any right we do not expressly grant is reserved.
Do not use our name, logo or branding without our written permission.
10. AI generated content
The AI Coach replies, the workout plans and the body scan feedback are generated for us by Google's Gemini models. What we send to Google for each request, and how Google handles it, is described in the Privacy Policy.
The AI Coach and the plan generator produce suggestions automatically. Automated systems can be wrong. Their output may be inaccurate, incomplete, out of date, oddly worded or simply unsuitable for you.
Use your own judgment. Do not follow a suggestion that feels unsafe, that exceeds your ability, or that contradicts advice from your doctor or a qualified coach.
Body scan feedback is an automated interpretation of a video you recorded on your own phone. It is an estimate and a general observation, not a measurement, not a body composition test and not any kind of medical or diagnostic assessment.
Similar outputs may be produced for other users with similar inputs. We do not promise that any output is unique to you. We do not claim ownership of the plain text suggestions produced for you, but the systems, models and prompts that generate them remain ours.
If an AI Coach reply or any other AI output seems wrong, offensive, unsafe or otherwise inappropriate, please report it to us through the in-app report form (Settings, Report a Bug) or by email to supportkovaai@gmail.com. We review these reports.
You are responsible for how you act on AI output. Sections 13 and 14 apply to it in full.
11. Apple, Google and third parties
The Service relies on third party providers, including Sign in with Apple, Google Sign-In, the Apple App Store and Google Play for payments, RevenueCat for subscription management, Supabase for hosting and data storage, and FormSubmit to deliver in-app bug reports to our inbox. Their own terms and privacy policies govern what they do. We are not responsible for third party services, and a link or an integration is not an endorsement.
Additional terms for apps obtained from the Apple App Store
- These Terms are between you and Ben Ari Shoshan only, not with Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content.
- Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support for the app.
- If the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price of the app to you. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation at all with respect to the app.
- We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims relating to the app, including product liability claims, any claim that the app fails to conform to a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation, to the extent these Terms do not lawfully disclaim them.
- We, not Apple, are responsible for investigating, defending, settling and discharging any third party claim that the app infringes that third party's intellectual property rights.
- You confirm that you are not located in a country that is subject to a US Government embargo or that has been designated by the US Government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third party beneficiaries of these Terms and have the right to enforce them against you.
- You must comply with any applicable third party terms of service when using the app.
Equivalent terms apply to the Google Play version of the app when it launches, in favor of Google where Google's rules require it.
12. Feedback and bug reports
We would like to hear from you. If you send us feedback, feature ideas or a bug report, including through the in-app report form that FormSubmit delivers to our inbox, you agree that we may use it freely, in any way, without any obligation, payment or credit to you.
You are never required to send us ideas. Please do not send us anything confidential or anything you do not have the right to share.
13. Disclaimer of warranties
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available".
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties and conditions of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy and quiet enjoyment.
In particular, we do not warrant that:
- the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or free of errors;
- any plan, suggestion, personal record, estimate or body scan feedback will be accurate, reliable, complete or appropriate for you;
- defects will be corrected, or that the Service is free of harmful components;
- using the Service will produce any particular fitness, strength, weight, body composition or health result;
- your data will never be lost or corrupted.
No advice or information you get from us or from the app creates any warranty that is not expressly stated here.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you. Nothing here limits any consumer right that cannot be limited by contract.
14. Limitation of liability
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law. That includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, and any liability under mandatory consumer protection law.
Subject to that, and to the fullest extent permitted by law:
- Ben Ari Shoshan, and Kova AI's employees, contractors and suppliers, are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill or opportunity, however caused and under any theory of liability, even if we were advised that such loss was possible;
- our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid for Kova AI in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim, and fifty US dollars (USD 50);
- because physical training is inherently risky and we cannot see you, supervise you or assess your health, we are not liable for injury, aggravation of an existing condition, or other harm resulting from training you chose to do, from following a suggestion in the app, or from your failure to seek medical clearance as described in section 2.
You agree that these limits are a reasonable allocation of risk between us, that they form an essential part of this agreement, and that the Service would not be offered on these terms without them.
15. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Ben Ari Shoshan and Kova AI's employees, contractors and licensors from and against any claims, demands, damages, losses, liabilities, costs and reasonable legal fees arising out of or connected with:
- your use or misuse of the Service;
- Your Content;
- your breach of these Terms or of any applicable law;
- your infringement of any third party right;
- any injury, illness or damage to property connected with your training.
We may take over the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, at your expense, and you agree to cooperate with us in that defense.
16. Suspension and termination
You can leave whenever you want. Stop using the app, or delete your account in Settings, Delete Account. Deleting your account permanently removes your account and the data linked to it, as described in the Privacy Policy. It cannot be undone.
Deleting your account does not cancel your subscription. Cancel that separately in your Apple or Google account settings, otherwise the store will keep charging you.
We may suspend or end your access if you breach these Terms, if we reasonably need to for legal, security or safety reasons, or if we stop offering the Service. Where it is reasonable and lawful to do so, we will give you notice first and, for serious cases, an opportunity to explain.
If we permanently stop offering the Service, or we end your access without you having done anything wrong, you may ask the relevant app store about a refund for any unused prepaid period.
Termination does not affect any rights or obligations that arose before it. Sections that by their nature should continue do continue, including sections 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15, 18 and 19.
17. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms as the app changes, as our business changes, or as the law changes.
When a change is material we will tell you in the app or on this page and update the "Last updated" date at the top. Changes take effect from the date we post them, or later if we say so.
Changes apply going forward. If you keep using the Service after they take effect, you accept them. If you do not accept them, stop using the Service and delete your account.
Want an earlier version? Email supportkovaai@gmail.com and we will send you one.
18. Governing law and disputes
These Terms, and any dispute arising out of them or out of your use of the Service, are governed by the laws of the State of Israel, without regard to its conflict of law rules.
The competent courts of Rehovot, Israel, have exclusive jurisdiction, and you and we both submit to that jurisdiction.
If you are a consumer resident in the EU or EEA, the UK, or anywhere else whose law gives you the right to rely on your local mandatory consumer protections or to bring proceedings in your local courts, nothing in this section takes that right away.
Talk to us first. Before starting any formal proceeding, please email supportkovaai@gmail.com and describe the problem. Almost everything can be sorted out by email, and we would rather fix it than argue about it.
19. General terms
Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service, and they replace any earlier version.
Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, it is modified to the minimum extent needed to make it enforceable, or removed if that is not possible, and the rest stays in effect.
No waiver. If we do not enforce a right straight away, that is not a waiver of it.
Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms. We may assign them to an affiliate, to a company formed to operate Kova AI, or to a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, on notice to you.
No partnership. These Terms do not create a partnership, joint venture, agency or employment relationship between us.
Events outside our control. We are not liable for any delay or failure caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including outages at our hosting or app store providers, natural events, war or changes in law.
Language. These Terms are written in English. Any translation is provided for convenience, and the English version governs if there is a conflict.
Notices. We may contact you at the email address linked to your account or through the app. Send notices to us at supportkovaai@gmail.com.
