Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully before using our website, app, or coaching services. By accessing or using any part of our services, you agree to be bound by these terms.
1. Who we are
These Terms and Conditions govern your use of services provided by I Am Darren Cooper Limited (company number 17302118, registered in England & Wales, registered office 71-75 Shelton Street, London, WC2H 9JQ), trading as iamdarrencooper and The Cooper Method.
Website: iamdarrencooper.com
App: The Cooper Method (available via the Apple App Store and Google Play Store)
Email: team@iamdarrencooper.com
2. Services
The Cooper Method offers the following subscription-based coaching services: App (self-serve app access), Blueprint (self-serve app, community classroom and educational materials), Method (bespoke coaching with regular contact), and Full Access (premium coaching including face-to-face sessions, Derby and Burton on Trent area only).
Full details of each tier are available at iamdarrencooper.com/work-with-me.
3. Eligibility
You must be 18 years of age or older to use our services, website, app, or to purchase any coaching service. By registering or purchasing, you confirm that you are 18 or older.
By purchasing, you confirm that you are physically capable of undertaking a fitness programme, or that you have sought appropriate medical advice before doing so. If you have any medical conditions, injuries, or health concerns, you must disclose these during the onboarding process.
4. Subscriptions and payment
We offer subscriptions through two separate routes, depending on how you sign up.
4.1 Subscriptions purchased through our website
Website subscriptions are charged monthly in advance via Stripe. Your subscription renews automatically each month until cancelled. Prices are displayed in GBP and include VAT where applicable. You authorise us to charge your payment method on a recurring basis. Failed payments may result in temporary suspension of your access.
4.2 Subscriptions purchased through the app (in-app purchases)
If you subscribe through The Cooper Method app, your subscription is billed by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play), not by us directly. These subscriptions renew automatically through your Apple or Google account until cancelled. Payment is charged to your Apple or Google account at confirmation of purchase. The price, billing period, and renewal terms are shown to you at the point of purchase within the app.
5. Cancellation
5.1 Website subscriptions
You may cancel a website subscription at any time by contacting team@iamdarrencooper.com. Cancellations take effect at the end of your current billing period, and you will not be charged again. No refunds are issued for the current billing period once it has begun.
5.2 App subscriptions
You must cancel an app subscription through your Apple or Google account settings, not by contacting us, because Apple and Google manage that billing. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. You can manage or cancel app subscriptions in the Subscriptions section of your Apple ID or Google Play account. Refunds for app subscriptions are handled under Apple's or Google's refund policies.
5.3 Face-to-face sessions
Face-to-face sessions must be cancelled with at least 24 hours' notice. Failure to do so may result in the session being forfeited.
6. Cooling-off period (UK consumer rights)
Under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, you have the right to cancel within 14 days of purchase without giving a reason (the "cooling-off period").
However, if you request that the service begins immediately (for example, by accessing your plan or app within the 14-day period), you acknowledge that your right to a full refund may be reduced proportionately to the service already delivered.
To exercise your right to cancel within the cooling-off period, contact team@iamdarrencooper.com. Where your subscription was purchased through the app, statutory cancellation and refund rights are handled through Apple or Google in line with their policies.
7. Health disclaimer

They do not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult a qualified medical professional before starting any new fitness, nutrition, or supplementation programme, particularly if you have a pre-existing health condition.
