If your Developer Applications do not collect the authentication credentials of a Strava user, then you are not permitted to display any data or use any functionality via the API Materials that is not available to a logged out user. When requesting authentication scopes, you should only request minimum viable permissions. Keep in mind that activities that are visible to a logged out user could be leveraging privacy functionality within Strava. This underscores the importance of ensuring you are not displaying data to other users and third parties that is not available to a logged out user. If your Developer Applications log into Strava on behalf of a Strava user, then you are permitted to access and display data or functionality only for that Strava user, and you may not disclose such data to, or use it for, another user nor any other third party without a lawful basis. Your Developer Applications shall have a lawful privacy policy, including GDPR compliance, accessible with reasonably prominent hyperlinks that does not conflict with or supersede the Strava Privacy Policy and that explains how you collect, store, use, and/or transfer any Personal Data (defined below) via your Developer Applications. You also agree to comply with all privacy and data protection laws applicable to you.

If your use of the Strava API Materials or Personal Data requires or will likely result in the provision of Personal Data directly to Strava, you agree to obtain all necessary consents and authorizations from the applicable users to provide such Personal Data to Strava. You will also take steps to ensure that such users are aware of this processing and disclosure in such cases, including by adding a statement to this effect in your privacy policy. Strava will treat Personal Data obtained from you through your use of the Strava API Materials in accordance with Strava’s then-current Privacy Policy.

Your Developer Application must obtain the legal consent of a Strava user before accessing any of their data via the Strava API materials. Your Developer Application must authenticate the account of the Strava user and, at minimum, outline the following to the user: i) what type of data will be collected; ii) how the data will be collected; iii) how a user can withdraw their consent; iv) how a user may request deletion. If your Developer Applications log into Strava on behalf of a Strava user, then you are permitted to access and display data or functionality only for that Strava user, and you may not disclose such data to, or use it for, another user nor any other third party. Your Developer Applications shall have a lawful privacy policy meeting the requirements of the GDPR and UK GDPR, accessible with reasonably prominent hyperlinks that do not modify, conflict with or supersede the Strava Privacy Policy, which will control in the event of any conflict with your privacy policy, and that explains how you collect, store, use, and/or transfer any Personal Data (defined below) via your Developer Applications. You also agree to comply with all privacy and data protection laws applicable to you. In the event of a change in the type of data to be collected from a Strava user, you must notify the Strava user of such change and obtain their consent to the change in scope.

Unless otherwise required by applicable law or agreement with the applicable user to retain such data, if a user revokes the authorization previously granted for your Developer Applications to access to their Strava account, you must ensure that all Personal Data pertaining to that user is deleted from your Developer Applications and related networks, systems and servers. If you stop using the Strava API Materials altogether or if your Strava API Materials access is revoked, you must delete all Personal Data in the same way.

You agree to process and use Personal Data in a manner consistent with all applicable data protection and privacy laws. If for any reason you are unable to comply with any privacy requirement of the Service Terms you must promptly inform Strava and take reasonable and appropriate steps to remedy any non-compliance, or cease your access to the API and use of all Personal Data.

“Personal Data” means data that may be used, either alone or together with other information, to identify an individual user, including, without limitation, a user’s name, address, telephone number, username, email address, city and country, geolocation, unique identifiers, picture, or other similar information and includes personal data as defined in the GDPR.

Security and Fraud Controls

Strava is responsible for protecting the security of Personal Data in its possession and will maintain commercially reasonable and appropriate administrative, technical, and physical procedures to protect the Personal Data regarding your customers that is stored in Strava’s servers from unauthorized access and accidental loss or modification. However, Strava cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat those measures or use such Personal Data for improper purposes. You acknowledge that if you provide Personal Data to Strava, you do so at your own risk. We recommend that you review our Privacy Policy, which will help you understand how we collect, use and safeguard the Personal Data you may provide to us.

Strava may provide, suggest or mandate security procedures and controls intended to reduce the risk to you of fraud or security breaches (“Security Controls”). These Security Controls may include processes or applications that are developed by Strava or by third parties, including but not limited to providing two-factor authentication for users logging i

Privacy
Your Developer Applications must respect the privacy settings configured by the Strava users. You may use and retain Data only so long as necessary for the purpose you originally obtained it, subject to Section 7 (Retention) below. If your Developer Applications do not collect the authentication credentials of a Strava user, then you are not permitted to display any data or use any functionality via the API Materials that is not available to a logged out user. When requesting authentication scopes, you should only request minimum viable permissions. Keep in mind that activities that are visible to a logged out user could be leveraging privacy functionality within Strava. This underscores the importance of ensuring you are not displaying data to other users and third parties that is not available to a logged out user. If your Developer Applications log into Strava on behalf of a Strava user, then you are permitted to access and display data or functionality only for that Strava user, and you may not disclose such data to, or use it for, another user nor any other third party without a lawful basis. Your Developer Applications shall have a lawful privacy policy, including GDPR compliance, accessible with reasonably prominent hyperlinks that does not conflict with or supersede the Strava Privacy Policy and that explains how you collect, store, use, and/or transfer any Personal Data (defined below) via your Developer Applications. You also agree to comply with all privacy and data protection laws applicable to you.
If your use of the Strava API Materials or Personal Data requires or will likely result in the provision of Personal Data directly to Strava, you agree to obtain all necessary consents and authorizations from the applicable users to provide such Personal Data to Strava.

Strava will treat Personal Data obtained from you through your use of the Strava API Materials in accordance with Strava’s then-current Privacy Policy.
Unless otherwise required by applicable law or agreement with the applicable user to retain such data, if a user revokes the authorization previously granted for your Developer Applications to access to their Strava account, you must ensure that all Personal Data pertaining to that user is deleted from your Developer Applications and related networks, systems and servers. If you stop using the Strava API Materials altogether or if your Strava API Materials access is revoked, you must delete all Personal Data in the same way.
You agree to process and use Personal Data in a manner consistent with all applicable data protection and privacy laws. If for any reason you are unable to comply with any privacy requirement of the Service Terms you must promptly inform Strava and take reasonable and appropriate steps to remedy any non-compliance, or cease your access to the API and use of all Personal Data.
“Personal Data” means data that may be used, either alone or together with other information, to identify an individual user, including, without limitation, a user’s name, address, telephone number, username, email address, city and country, geolocation, unique identifiers, picture, or other similar information and includes personal data as defined in the GDPR.
Security and Fraud Controls
Strava is responsible for protecting the security of Personal Data in its possession and will maintain commercially reasonable and appropriate administrative, technical, and physical procedures to protect the Personal Data regarding your customers that is stored in Strava’s servers from unauthorized access and accidental loss or modification.

You acknowledge that if you provide Personal Data to Strava, you do so at your own risk. We recommend that you review our Privacy Policy, which will help you understand how we collect, use and safeguard the Personal Data you may provide to us.
Strava may provide, suggest or mandate security procedures and controls intended to reduce the risk to you of fraud or security breaches (“Security Controls”). These Security Controls may include processes or applications that are developed by Strava or by third parties, including but not limited to providing two-factor authentication for users logging into their Strava account. You agree to review all Security Controls and choose those that are appropriate for your business and the Developer Applications to protect against unauthorized transactions and, if necessary, use other procedures and controls not provided by us.
Strava, or a third party agent working at our direction and subject to confidentiality obligations, shall be entitled to inspect and audit your Developer Applications for the purpose of verifying compliance with this Agreement. You agree to cooperate with audits by providing information and assistance as reasonably requested.
Retention
Your Developer Applications are encouraged to cache Strava Data to improve performance within the limits outlined in this Agreement. Strava is not liable in any way for any data you retain in your cache. No Strava Data shall remain in your cache longer than seven (7) days. If your Developer Applications check for a resource (e.g., a segment) and that resource is no longer available from Strava, you shall remove it from your cache immediately regardless of how frequently you refresh your cache. Except for such limited caching, your Developer Applications are prohibited from storing any Strava Data or providing or displaying such data or any associated service to any third party other than the Strava user using your Developer Applications.

Use of Strava Trademarks
The rights granted in this Agreement do not include any general right to use the Strava name or any Strava trademarks, service marks or logos (the “Strava Marks”) with respect to your Developer Applications. Subject to your continued compliance with this Agreement, you may use Strava Marks to comply with Strava’s data attribution requirements for certain limited purposes related to your Developer Applications only as described in the Strava Brand Guidelines.

To facilitate your Strava API Materials integration, Strava may make certain SDK(s) and/or libraries available to you under a separate open source license. You agree that any Strava API integration facilitated with such open source SDK(s) and/or libraries remains subject to this Agreement.
You hereby grant to Strava a paid-up, royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable, right and license, under all applicable intellectual property rights, for Strava’s marketing and promotional purposes to: (a) use, perform, make available, display to the public, reproduce your Developer Applications and your integration of the Strava API Materials and (b) use your name, likeness, or brand (which includes all your trademarks, service marks, logos, brand names, or trade names) (“Your Marks”) to the extent it is incorporated into your Developer Application. Following the termination of this Agreement and upon written request from you, Strava shall make commercially reasonable efforts, as determined in its sole discretion, to remove references to your Develop Application and any of Your Marks from the Strava website.
Confidentiality
You may be given access to certain information, data, materials, know-how, methodologies, documentation, and/or software relating to the Strava API Materials or the Strava Platform that is not generally known by the public (“Confidential Information”), which is confidential and proprietary to Strava.

Registration
Once your registration is complete, you are authorized to use the Strava API Materials to develop products, sites, applications or services that are registered with us and are designed to interact with and enhance the Strava Platform (“Developer Applications”) subject to the restrictions, conditions and limitations in this Agreement. Strava may require you to renew your registration from time-to-time or to provide additional information in order to maintain or increase your access to the Strava API Materials. To use the Strava API Materials you must use the approved developer key token provided by Strava (“API Token”). You may only use a single API Token for a single Developer Application.
You are solely responsible for the confidentiality of your API Token and may not share your API Token with any other developer, third party, or use it for more than one application or service. You agree to keep your registration, site, application or service information accurate, complete, and current for so long as you use the Strava API Materials. You are responsible for all use that occurs under your API Token, including any activities by you or your employees, contractors or agents. If you believe an unauthorized person has gained access to your API Token we issue you, you must notify us as soon as possible but no later than twenty-four (24) hours after discovery.
Strava may contact you from time to time about your use of the Strava API Materials and/or API Token, and you agree to be responsive to inquiries from Strava.

Strava reserves the right at any time (and for any reason) to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Strava API Materials, your use of the Strava API Materials, or any portion thereof with or without notice to you and without any form of compensation or consideration to you, regardless of the status of any of your Developer Applications. Strava also reserves the right to create, modify and enforce controlling mechanisms such as a rate limiting structure or granular permissioning for use of the Strava API Materials, and to apply controlling mechanisms to individual Developer Applications as determined in our sole discretion. Further, you acknowledge that Strava has no obligation to ensure that an upgrade of the Strava API Materials or the Strava Platform will be compatible with existing or planned Developer Applications.
Strava reserves the right to revoke your API Token or terminate or limit any uses of the Strava API Materials if you violate this Agreement or we otherwise object to your use of the Strava API Materials, including but not limited to, uses that replicate or otherwise imitate Strava sites, services, or products. If you are unsure if a certain use of the Strava API Materials is permitted or if there is a use case you would like to see covered that is not currently supported by the API or this Agreement, please contact us at developers@strava.com to discuss your needs.
You agree to comply with the Strava Brand Guidelines, including without limitation, attributing your use of Strava Data in your Developer Applications by using the links and logos Strava makes available to you.

You understand and agree that Strava has the sole discretion to determine whether you are in compliance with the Strava API Brand Guidelines.
You agree that any reference to Strava and/or the Strava Platform in your Developer Application shall not be displayed in a manner that has a likelihood of creating confusion as to the origin of the Developer Application or implying a direct or indirect affiliation, endorsement, sponsorship or approval by Strava.
Strava may use your Developer Applications and any related marks, logos, or other intellectual property that you leverage in the Strava API Materials, without providing notice to you, for the purposes of promoting Strava and marketing and making Developer Applications available to our mutual customers. However, Strava has no obligation to use or promote any Developer Application.
You, and not Strava, are responsible for providing all customer and technical support and maintenance for your Developer Applications. Strava has no obligation to provide any type of technical or other support for the Strava API Materials or any services or content related thereto, whether provided by Strava, by you, or by third parties. Strava reserves the right to provide Developer Applications with varying levels of access, support, benefits, and/or incentives.

If we believe that you have attempted to exceed or circumvent these limitations, your ability to use the Strava API Materials may be temporarily or permanently blocked. Your use of certain endpoints may be subject to certain limitations on access as established by Strava from time-to-time. If you desire to implement an endpoint or scope in a manner that would exceed the limitations on access, please contact us. You may not, nor may you encourage or allow any third party to, interfere with, hinder, limit, or modify any notices or authorization or consent requests provided by Strava.
You agree that Strava may monitor and collect certain usage data and information related to your use of the Strava API Materials, and Strava Platform in connection with your Developer Applications (“Usage Data”), and that Strava may use such Usage Data for any business purpose, internal or external, including, without limitation, providing enhancements to the Strava API Materials or Strava Platform, providing developer or user support, ensuring compliance with Agreement, or otherwise.

Access to and use of the Strava API Materials and the Strava Platform are currently provided at no charge. Strava reserves the right to charge you for use of the Strava API Materials and access to the Strava Platform, and such updates may include such charges or updates to such charges, in the future at our discretion, including, without limitation, rated pricing and/or differentiated pricing for business users.

Privacy
Your Developer Applications must respect the privacy settings configured by the Strava users. You may use and retain Data only so long as necessary for the purpose you originally obtained it, subject to Section 7 below. If your Developer Applications do not collect the authentication credentials of a Strava user, then you are not permitted to display any data or use any functionality via the API Materials.
Your Developer Application must obtain the legal consent of a Strava user before accessing any of their data via the Strava API materials. Your Developer Application must authenticate the account of the Strava user and, at minimum, outline the following to the user: i) what type of data will be collected; ii) how the data will be collected; iii) how a user can withdraw their consent; iv) how a user may request deletion. If your Developer Applications log into Strava on behalf of a Strava user, then you are permitted to access and display data or functionality only for that Strava user, and you may not disclose such data to, or use it for, another user nor any other third party. Your Developer Applications shall have a lawful privacy policy meeting the requirements of the GDPR and UK GDPR, accessible with reasonably prominent hyperlinks that do not modify, conflict with or supersede the Strava Privacy Policy, which will control in the event of any conflict with your privacy policy, and that explains how you collect, store, use, and/or transfer any Personal Data (defined below) via your Developer Applications. You also agree to comply with all privacy and data protection laws applicable to you. In the event of a change in the type of data to be collected from a Strava user, you must notify the Strava user of such change and obtain their consent to the change in scope.
If your use of the Strava API Materials or Personal Data requires or will likely result in the provision of Personal Data directly to Strava, you agree to obtain all necessary consents and authorizations from the applicable users to provide such Personal Data to Strava. You will also take steps to ensure that such users are aware of this processing and disclosure in such cases, including by adding a statement to this effect in your privacy policy. Strava will treat Personal Data obtained from you through your use of the Strava API Materials in accordance with Strava’s then-current Privacy Policy.
Unless otherwise required by applicable law or agreement with the applicable user to retain such data, if a user revokes the authorization previously granted for your Developer Applications to access to their Strava account, you must ensure that all Personal Data pertaining to that user is deleted from your Developer Applications and related networks, systems and servers. If you stop using the Strava API Materials altogether or if your Strava API Materials access is revoked, you must delete all Personal Data in the same way.
You agree to process and use Personal Data in a manner consistent with all applicable data protection and privacy laws. If for any reason you are unable to comply with any privacy requirement of the Service Terms you must promptly inform Strava and take reasonable and appropriate steps to remedy any non-compliance, or cease your access to the API and use of all Personal Data.
“Personal Data” means data that may be used, either alone or together with other information, to identify an individual user, including, without limitation, a user’s name, address, telephone number, username, email address, city and country, geolocation, unique identifiers, picture, or other similar information and includes personal data as defined in the GDPR and UK GDPR.
Security and Fraud Controls
Strava is responsible for protecting the security of Personal Data in its possession and will maintain commercially reasonable and appropriate administrative, technical, organisational and physical procedures to protect the Personal Data regarding your customers that is stored in Strava’s servers from unauthorized access and accidental loss or modification. However, Strava cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat those measures or use such Personal Data for improper purposes. You acknowledge that if you provide Personal Data to Strava, you do so at your own risk. We recommend that you review our Privacy Policy, which will help you understand how we collect, use and safeguard the Personal Data you may provide to us.
Strava may provide, suggest or mandate security procedures and controls intended to reduce the risk to you of fraud or security breaches (“Security Controls”). These Security Controls may include processes or applications that are developed by Strava or by third parties, including but not limited to providing two-factor authentication for users logging into their Strava account. You agree to review all Security Controls and choose those that are appropriate for your business and the Developer Applications to protect against unauthorized transactions and, if necessary, use other procedures and controls not provided by us.
Strava, or a third party agent working at our direction and subject to confidentiality obligations, shall be entitled to inspect and audit your Developer Applications for the purpose of verifying compliance with this Agreement. You agree to cooperate with audits by providing information and assistance as reasonably requested.
Retention
No Strava Data shall remain in your cache longer than seven days. If your Developer Applications check for a resource (e.g., a segment) and that resource is no longer available from Strava, you shall remove it from your cache immediately regardless of how frequently you refresh your cache. Except for such limited caching, your Developer Applications are prohibited from storing any Strava Data or providing or displaying such data or any associated service to any third party other than the Strava user using your Developer Applications.
