Coaching is not medical advice and is not a substitute for care from a licensed healthcare provider.
3) Consent to Use Progress Photos, Before-and-After Images, Testimonials, and Results
When you submit progress photos, before-and-after images, transformation pictures, video check-ins, testimonials, reviews, written feedback, or similar content to Fit Foundations Academy — whether through our coaching app, intake forms, email, SMS, social media DMs, or any other channel — you grant FFA an irrevocable, royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual license to use, reproduce, edit, crop, adapt, publish, display, and distribute that content for any business or marketing purpose, including:

- We may crop, resize, color-correct, add text overlays, brand watermarks, or otherwise edit content for presentation.
- We may continue to use previously published content even after you stop working with FFA.
What we do not do
