1. Operator and service
Aspera is provided by Giovan Battista Lo Buglio, based in 90011 Bagheria (PA), Italy, under the developer name gioviwankenobi. For support and notices, email info@gioviwankenobi.com.
The app lets users create plans and exercises, schedule and record workouts, view history and summaries and, optionally, connect a coach. The Privacy Policy separately governs personal data processing.
By creating an account or using the service, you state that you have read and accepted these Terms. If you act for a minor, you state that you are their parent or guardian and have the required authority.
2. Accounts and minors
Creating an account requires a name, an accessible email address and a password. Registration also asks for a date of birth: the app uses it to determine the age group but does not store the complete date. Provide accurate information, protect your credentials and report suspicious access. Do not impersonate others or share your password.
Aspera may also be used by minors. In Italy, a user aged 14 or over may create their own account; below 14 the account must be created and managed by a parent or guardian using an email address under their control. In other countries, the digital-consent age set by local law applies.
The parent or guardian must supervise the minor’s use of the app, choice of programme and any coach connection. They may request access, disconnection or deletion by contacting the operator.
3. Permitted use and workout safety
Use Aspera lawfully and without infringing other people’s rights. Do not attempt to access unauthorised data, bypass security controls, interfere with the service or submit unlawful content. Do not enter diagnoses, medical conditions, treatments, medication or confidential third-party information in note fields.
Aspera is a log and organisational tool: it does not provide medical diagnosis, prescriptions or advice and does not guarantee results. Charts, suggested loads and summaries depend on entered data and may contain errors.
Assess exercises, technique, loads and suitability with a doctor or qualified professional where necessary. Stop and seek help if you experience pain, dizziness, breathing difficulty, illness or other unusual symptoms. A minor’s workouts require supervision by a parent or guardian and, where appropriate, a qualified professional.
4. Coach and athlete connection
Connecting a coach is optional and requires the code supplied by the coach and confirmation by the athlete. Before confirming, the athlete must verify where the code came from and review the data-access summary. Aspera does not automatically verify or certify a coach’s identity, qualifications, licences or insurance.
The connected coach can view the synchronised calendar and workout data, generate reports and assign their own plans. They can delete only scheduled plans that they created and that have not been started, subject to the app’s controls; they cannot delete the athlete’s personal workout history.
The athlete can disconnect the coach in Settings. Once the server confirms the request, new access is blocked, but exported PDFs and other external copies cannot be recalled. Services, payments or appointments agreed directly between athlete and coach are outside the Aspera service.
For an under-14 account, connecting a coach requires confirmation by the parent or guardian using the password of the account they control. The authorisation is recorded separately.
5. Plans, exercises and content
Users retain rights in the original content they submit. They grant Aspera a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, copy and transmit that content only to provide the requested features.
The coach retains rights in their original plans. When assigning a plan, the coach authorises Aspera to deliver a copy and grants the athlete a personal, non-exclusive, royalty-free and non-transferable licence to retain and use it for their own workouts, including after disconnection. The athlete may not sell, publish or distribute it without the rights holder’s permission.
Later changes to the original plan do not automatically update a delivered copy. Disconnection does not delete that copy. The athlete retains rights in their own workout results and technical notes.
Anyone submitting content warrants that they may use and share it. Reports and PDFs must only be sent to appropriate recipients; once exported, Aspera does not control later copies.
6. Archives, synchronisation and availability
Local data depends on the device and installation. Signing out, deleting workouts and deleting an account are different operations. Calendar synchronisation is not a complete backup and may require a connection and an app update.
The service may be interrupted for maintenance, updates, faults or external causes. Continuous availability and error-free operation are not guaranteed. Keep a separate copy of anything essential without disclosing unnecessary personal data.
7. Costs and current model
The current version of Aspera contains no advertising, in-app purchases or subscriptions and does not sell personal data. Connection costs and any fees agreed directly with a coach remain the user’s responsibility.
Any future paid services will present their price and conditions before purchase and require the disclosures and acceptance required by law.
8. Account and service closure
Users can delete their account in the app or follow the process described under Delete account. Signing out does not close the account.
The operator may immediately suspend or close an account where reasonably necessary for security, abuse, fraud, a serious breach of these Terms or a legal obligation. In other cases, the operator will state the reason and, where possible, allow at least 30 days to remedy the issue or submit comments by email.
If the service is discontinued, the operator will provide at least 60 days’ notice where reasonably possible and explain how users may exercise their data rights. A suspension or closure may be challenged by emailing info@gioviwankenobi.com.
9. Liability and mandatory rights
Users are responsible for information they enter, the security of their device and workout decisions. Coaches are responsible for their professional instructions, their use of received data and compliance with obligations applicable to their activities.
The operator is responsible, within the limits of applicable law, for the operation of the service and data protection within its control. Nothing excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, limits mandatory consumer rights or transfers all obligations of the operator or coach to the athlete.
10. Applicable law and disputes
These Terms are governed by Italian law, without affecting mandatory consumer protections under the law of the user’s country of residence. Users are encouraged to contact the operator to seek a solution before taking formal action.
Consumers retain the jurisdiction provided by mandatory applicable rules, including the courts of their place of residence or domicile where required. No different exclusive venue is imposed.
11. Changes and contact
Material changes will be notified with appropriate advance notice through the app, website or email. Fresh acceptance will be requested where necessary. Earlier use remains governed by the version then applicable.
