Why it matters

You do not own the software on your Fitbit device — you are only licensed to use it, and that license can be revoked. This limits what you can do with your device and the data generated by it.

Consumer impact

Fitbit's terms require users to resolve disputes through binding individual arbitration, waiving the right to participate in class action lawsuits — a significant limitation on legal recourse. The company also claims a broad license over user-generated content and integrates Google's data practices for users with Google accounts, expanding the scope of data handling. You can opt out of the arbitration clause by sending written notice to Fitbit within 30 days of first agreeing to the terms, as specified in the dispute resolution section.
