Terms of Service
Effective: July 27, 2026 · Last Updated: July 27, 2026
1. Agreement to These Terms
By creating an account, accessing, or using TrainerElite ("the Service," "the Platform") at TrainerElite.pro, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms") and our Privacy Policy.
If you are using the Service on behalf of a business, barn, or organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms, and "you" refers to both you individually and that entity.
If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service. TrainerElite, Inc. reserves the right to update these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance.
2. Who May Use the Service
The Service is intended for professional horse trainers, barn managers, stable operators, and related equine industry professionals operating within the United States. You must be at least 18 years of age to create an account.
Horse owners, clients, and assistants may access limited features of the Platform when invited by a registered trainer. They are also subject to these Terms.
3. Account Creation & Responsibilities
To use the Service, you must register for an account by providing a valid email address and creating a password. You are responsible for:
- Maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials
- All activity that occurs under your account
- Notifying us immediately at legal@trainerelite.pro if you suspect unauthorized access
- Ensuring all information you provide is accurate and kept up to date
You may not share your account credentials with others. Each trainer or barn professional should maintain their own account. You may invite assistants and clients through the Platform's built-in invitation system.
Google Sign-In: As an alternative to email and password, you may register or sign in using your Google account via Google's OAuth connection. When you do, TrainerElite receives your Google account name, email address, and a Google-issued authentication token — we do not receive or store your Google password. You may revoke TrainerElite's access to your Google account at any time from your Google account security settings, after which we will no longer request new Google data. Your use of Google Sign-In is also subject to Google's terms of service and privacy policy: policies.google.com/terms and policies.google.com/privacy.
4. Free Trial
New accounts are eligible for a 14-day free trial of the Platform at the Professional tier level. No payment method is required to start a trial. At the end of the trial period, your account will revert to the Starter plan unless you choose to subscribe.
TrainerElite, Inc. reserves the right to modify, shorten, or discontinue the free trial offer at any time. Trial access is limited to one (1) trial per person or business entity. Creating multiple accounts to extend trial access is prohibited.
5. Subscription Plans & Billing
TrainerElite offers subscription plans on a monthly or annual basis. By subscribing, you authorizeTrainerElite, Inc. to charge your payment method on a recurring basis until you cancel.

Payments for platform subscriptions are processed securely by Stripe. TrainerElite, Inc. does not store full credit card information on its servers. Stripe's terms of service and privacy policy govern all payment processing: stripe.com/legal.
Third-Party Invoicing (Square): Trainers may optionally connect a Square account to create and send invoices directly to clients through the Platform. When you connect Square, you authorize Square to process payment data on your behalf. TrainerElite, Inc. does not process, store, or access funds processed through Square — all payments go directly to your Square account. Square's terms and privacy policy apply to all Square-processed transactions: squareup.com/legal.
