North Star Theory

Website terms

Use the information with care and context.

These terms explain the current basis for using North Star Theory. By using the website, you agree to follow them.

Information and guidance

Understanding comes before action.

North Star Theory provides general fitness education, research explanations, practical guidance, and comparisons. Content is intended to support understanding. It is not a personal medical, legal, financial, or other professional service.

Evidence, products, prices, services, and professional guidance can change. NST aims to review important content, but it cannot promise that every page will always be complete, current, or suitable for every person.

Acceptable use

Respect the website and the people using it.

  • Use the website lawfully and without attempting to damage, disable, or disrupt it.
  • Do not try to gain access to systems, accounts, or information that you are not authorised to use.
  • Do not copy or present NST content in a way that falsely suggests endorsement, authorship, or partnership.
  • Do not use automated activity that places an unreasonable burden on the website or prevents other people from using it.

01

Ownership and permitted use

Unless stated otherwise, the original words, structure, graphics, and brand elements on this website are owned by Gabriel Rodrigues Da Silva or used with permission. North Star Theory is the name used for this website. You may view and share links for personal use. Reproduction or commercial reuse requires permission unless the law allows it.

02

External and affiliate links

NST may link to sources, services, retailers, and affiliate partners. North Star Theory does not control those websites or their availability, prices, terms, privacy practices, or service. Following an external link does not create a purchase contract with NST. If you buy from a retailer, the purchase is between you and that retailer or the seller identified at checkout. Check the current product, price, delivery, returns, and warranty information on the retailer's website before buying.

03

Availability and changes

The website may be changed, corrected, suspended, or withdrawn. NST may update these terms when the platform, its services, or relevant requirements change.

04

Responsibility

Use your own judgement and seek qualified advice when needed. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits responsibility where the law does not allow that responsibility to be excluded or limited.

05

Buying a digital guide

This section applies only when North Star Theory sells a guide directly; it does not apply to a purchase made from a retailer through an external or affiliate link, which is covered by article 02 above. Payment is processed by Stripe on Stripe's own checkout page; North Star Theory never receives or stores your card details. A purchase gives you a personal, non-transferable licence to read and download the guide for your own use; it is not for resale, redistribution, or republishing.

A guide is fixed, general information written for a broad readership. It is not personalised advice, does not assess your individual circumstances, and buying it does not create a coaching, medical, or professional-advice relationship. Completing a guide does not guarantee any specific strength, appearance, health, or performance outcome.

Proposed refund approach, pending final confirmation

The intended default is a straightforward refund on request within 14 days of purchase, in addition to any statutory right that already applies and cannot be excluded. This exact wording, and the practical process for requesting one, needs the owner's final confirmation before the checkout feature is switched on; it is stated here in draft so the commitment is visible ahead of activation, not decided quietly afterward.

Operator and law

Accountability starts with a named operator.

North Star Theory is operated by Gabriel Rodrigues Da Silva, a sole trader.

Business correspondence address: North Star Theory, Lytchett House, 13 Freeland Park, Wareham Road, Poole, Dorset, BH16 6FA, United Kingdom

These terms and any non-contractual dispute connected with the website are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Subject to any mandatory right to bring proceedings elsewhere, the courts of England and Wales have jurisdiction.

Nothing in this section removes rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded, including any mandatory consumer rights that apply to a visitor.

Public operator details

The operator has a public correspondence route.

The operator, public correspondence address and governing-law wording are recorded. The public contact aliases are active for inbound mail, and the authenticated custom-domain reply path has passed its operational check.
