Coach Terms
These terms are an agreement between you (the coach) and Calibr HQ Pty Ltd (“Calibr”). They apply in addition to the Terms of Service and govern publishing programs, coaching athletes and receiving payouts on Calibr. You accept them by recording the coach agreement consent during onboarding; you cannot publish without it.
1. Relationship
- You are an independent contractor. Nothing in these terms creates an employment, agency, partnership or joint-venture relationship, and you are not entitled to employee benefits.
- Calibr is the seller of record for athlete subscriptions: athletes contract with and pay Calibr, and Calibr remits GST on subscription revenue. You are a payee of a revenue share, not the merchant.
- You are responsible for your own tax affairs, as set out in §4: Calibr pays you the full payout and does not withhold tax from it, and you declare it and pay any tax on it yourself.
2. Your content and the licence you grant us
- You keep ownership of the programs, workouts, notes and media you author.
- You grant Calibr a worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to host, reproduce, adapt (including rendering your prescriptions to each athlete’s baselines within our safety limits), display, distribute and promote your content for the purpose of operating and marketing the service.
- The licence survives for content already delivered to subscribers — athletes keep their workout history — and for records we must retain by law. Otherwise it ends when you remove the content or close your account.
- You consent to the technical modifications rendering requires and confirm the licence does not infringe your or any third party’s rights, including moral rights arrangements with any collaborators.
3. Professional conduct and safety
- You must hold yourself out honestly: qualifications you claim must be real and current, and you must stay within your scope of practice.
- You must not provide medical advice, diagnosis, injury treatment or rehabilitation programming through Calibr, and you must not publish prohibited content (including rapid weight-loss or dehydration protocols, guaranteed-results claims, or programming that requires clinical supervision).
- When an athlete reports symptoms, injury or a health change, your supported action is to direct them to appropriate care — the platform’s safety escalations apply and you must not override them.
- Platform safety limits on rendered targets bind your programs; you may adjust within them only.
4. Payouts
- Your share of each athlete’s subscription builds up daily over the period the athlete has paid for. It is what the athlete actually pays, after any discount, less GST, card processing costs, any app store fee and Calibr’s service fee. Your service-fee rate depends on how many athletes are actively subscribed to you when each billing period starts. Your current rate is shown in your coach dashboard, and all rates are published on Calibr’s “How payouts work” page. Rates may change on notice. Your share is paid out monthly.
- Refunds, chargebacks and cancelled periods reverse the related accruals. Repeated chargebacks tied to misleading program claims may lead to review.
- You must provide accurate payout details when requested, and keep any tax details you give Calibr accurate and up to date.
- How you are paid. Athletes buy from Calibr, not from you: Calibr is responsible for the sale, including its GST. You supply your coaching services to Calibr, and Calibr pays you your share as described above. Calibr pays earnings that are payable to you once a month. When Calibr switches on automated payouts, that will be on or shortly after the 5th (Sydney time), for earnings accrued in the months before it, and you will need to set up a payout account and give the details Calibr’s payment provider needs to verify you; until you do, your earnings are held for you, not lost. Until then Calibr pays you by the process described on the “How payouts work” page.
- Minimum payout. When automated payouts are on, if the earnings payable to you are less than $20 on a payout day, Calibr does not pay them that month. They are carried forward and added to the next month’s earnings, and are paid on the first payout day when the total reaches $20. Earnings are never forfeited because they are below the minimum. If your account closes with less than $20 owing, Calibr will pay you the balance as soon as it reasonably can, after any forfeit these terms already provide for.
- GST on your payout. The amount Calibr pays you already includes any GST that applies; Calibr will not add GST on top. If you are registered for GST, your payout is the whole payment for your supply to Calibr and one eleventh of it is the GST in that payment. If you are not registered, no GST is payable on your supply and the amount is the same. Calibr works out your payout the same way whether or not you are registered.
- Your tax status. You are an independent contractor and are responsible for your own tax affairs. That includes deciding whether you are carrying on an enterprise, whether you need an ABN, whether you must register for GST, declaring your payouts as income, and any income tax, superannuation, insurance or other obligations that apply to you. Calibr does not give tax advice. Calibr does not require you to have an ABN to be paid and does not withhold tax from your payouts. If the law requires Calibr to withhold or report, it may do so and will tell you.
- When Calibr offers it, you will be able to give optional tax details in your account: your ABN, your country, and whether you run a business. If you give them, Calibr relies on them, you must keep them accurate and up to date, and you are responsible for any tax consequence of details that are wrong or out of date.
5. Athlete information
You receive athlete training data (baselines, targets, results, messages) solely to coach that athlete on Calibr. You must keep it confidential, must not export it or use it to solicit athletes off-platform while these terms apply, and must delete any copies when coaching ends, except where the athlete asks you to retain something or the law requires it.
6. Moderation, suspension and termination
- We may hold, remove or restrict content that breaches these terms or our safety rules, and may suspend or terminate coach accounts for material breach. Where practical we will warn you first and explain the action.
- Either party may end these terms at any time; accrued payout entitlements survive, as do the licence tail in §2, confidentiality in §5, and any provision that by its nature survives.
7. Liability and law
The liability and governing-law provisions of the Terms of Service apply to these terms. You are responsible for your own professional-indemnity arrangements. Questions: support@calibrhq.com.
