This Agreement is between you and The Exercise Coach location (sometimes referred to in this Agreement as “TEC”, the “Studio”, “we”, or “us”) with which you have an account and governs your access to and use of the Exercise Coach Online Services that TEC makes available for use through your Client Policy Agreement, Subscription Agreement, Flex Pack, and/or any other TEC agreements related to your account with a Studio (collectively, “Client Agreements”).
