Terms of Use

You must be at least 18 years old. You are responsible for your account and for the accuracy of registration information, including your date of birth (which determines your age division). Falsifying registration data is grounds for sanction. One account per person.

Registration, score submission, and leaderboard placement are free. We may change or discontinue features at any time.

Participation requires acceptance of the Waiver and Release (incorporated by reference). The Challenge is self-administered; we host data, not workouts.

Benchmark standards are published at /challenge/standards as the “Season 1 Standard v1.0.” During the first 90 days after launch (the “Founding Season calibration window”), we may refine standards; all affected scores are retained and re-ranked under the refined standard. After the window closes, standards are frozen for the season and changes will only occur between seasons with published versioning.

Scores are self-reported unless verified. You agree to submit only honest results measured to the published standards. We may flag, hide, adjust, or remove any score, and may suspend or ban accounts, for suspected falsification, edited or manipulated video, falsified age/identity, or other integrity violations. Review outcomes may include penalties (including a minimum 15% deduction for major standard violations), score invalidation, and published sanctions. You may appeal a sanction to steven.barrow@patronusenergy.com within 30 days.

The Verified Athlete pass is a one-time purchase of $100 per athlete per season (or $100 per team per season for MAG teams). It entitles you to video review of your benchmark submissions for that season (all levels), one re-submission per rejected video, and the Verified badge for approved submissions. The fee purchases review, not a badge — approval requires meeting the published standards on video. Refunds: available within 14 days of purchase if no review has yet been rendered; non-refundable thereafter. Passes are non-transferable and expire at season end. Payments are processed by Stripe; we do not store card details.

For each Verified Athlete pass sold, the Company commits to using at least 25% of the purchase price to purchase freeze-dried meal pouches, which the Company donates in support of hunger-relief efforts (currently directed to Conquer Hunger by MTN OPS). This is a purchase-and-donate program by the Company, not a charity partnership or endorsement; your purchase is not a charitable contribution and is not tax-deductible. Details, current recipient, and program changes are published at /challenge/rules.

Submissions are licensed to us under the Media & Content License (incorporated by reference).

Leaderboard data (display names, locations as provided, scores, bands, levels) is public. You may use public leaderboard data for personal, non-commercial analysis with attribution. Bulk scraping that degrades the Service, or commercial resale of the data, is prohibited without written permission.

No impersonation, harassment, cheating, reverse engineering, automated account creation, or unlawful use. Display names and photos must not be offensive; we may rename or remove violating profiles.

The Primal Defender name, marks, level names, band names, standards documents, and site content are owned by the Company. Personal, non-commercial use (including running the workouts anywhere, with anyone) is encouraged; commercial use of the marks (e.g., paid events branded with Challenge marks) requires written permission.

THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT (INCLUDING FITNESS STANDARDS AND ANY TRAINING GUIDANCE) ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND. WE ARE NOT A MEDICAL OR TRAINING PROVIDER. RANKINGS AND PERCENTILES ARE PROVIDED FOR ENTERTAINMENT AND MOTIVATION AND MAY BE RECOMPUTED AT ANY TIME.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE COMPANY'S TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING FROM THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF $100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE PRIOR 12 MONTHS, AND WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

You will indemnify the Company against claims arising from your content, your conduct, your violation of these Terms, or your participation in Challenge Activities.

We may update these Terms with notice (posted revision date; material changes notified by email or in-product). Continued use constitutes acceptance. You may delete your account at any time; we may terminate accounts for violations.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arkansas.
