By using Strada Rider, you confirm that you are at least 13 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

Strada Rider is a platform that connects users with athletes to motivate and enhance fitness activities through Strava integration. Users can hire athletes for activities like running, cycling, or swimming, while athletes can offer their services to inspire others. The Service integrates with the Strava API to display performance metrics and facilitates payments for bookings.

Account Security: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. Notify us immediately at support@stradarider.com if you suspect unauthorized use. Profile Information: Athletes must provide truthful performance data and activity history via Strava integration. Users and athletes may upload profile photos, which must comply with our content guidelines (see Section 6).

Strada Rider connects with the Strava API to access and display your fitness data, such as activity type, pace, and history. By using the Service, you authorize us to access your Strava account as permitted by Strava's terms. You can revoke this access at any time through your Strava settings, but this may limit your ability to use certain features of the Service.
