Agreement
The EMS Atlas ("EMS Atlas," "we," "us," or "our"), is an online directory designed to connect individuals seeking Whole-Body Electrical Muscle Stimulation ("WB-EMS") training with independent EMS trainers, studios, and fitness professionals worldwide.
The EMS Atlas website and related services (collectively, the "Platform") are operated by the EMS Atlas, located in California, USA.

Any training services, appointments, payments, cancellations, refunds, or other arrangements are made directly between consumers and the respective service providers.

Professionals may not represent themselves as employees, agents, or officially certified representatives of EMS Atlas without written authorization.
6. Health and Fitness Disclaimer

Information on the Platform is provided for general informational purposes and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.
Consumers should consult an appropriately qualified healthcare professional when indicated before beginning EMS training.
Each independent EMS professional is responsible for screening clients, identifying contraindications, obtaining appropriate informed consent, and conducting sessions in accordance with applicable professional and safety standards.
7. Consumer Responsibility
Consumers using EMS Atlas acknowledge that:
- Listings are supplied by independent third parties.

- Their unlawful or misleading listing content.
- Their infringement of third-party intellectual property or other rights.
- Their negligent or wrongful conduct.
This obligation applies only to the extent the relevant claim is attributable to the professional user's conduct and does not require indemnification for EMS Atlas's own unlawful conduct or negligence where prohibited by law.
17. Privacy and Data Protection
Personal information is collected, used, disclosed, retained, and protected as described in the EMS Atlas Privacy Policy.
By using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have been provided access to the Privacy Policy.
