Lyft can delete your account and cut off your access to the app at any time, for any reason, without warning and without owing you any explanation.
Your Lyft account — and access to rides you may depend on — can be terminated at any time without notice, without a stated reason, and without any obligation to refund unused credits or prepaid amounts.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Unilateral termination clauses in platform agreements are subject to consumer protection scrutiny under FTC Act Section 5 and state UDAP statutes. Where Lyft operates as a quasi-essential transportation service, termination without due process may raise public accommodations concerns under state civil rights laws. The EU Digital Services Act (DSA, Regulation 2022/2065, Art. 17) requires platforms to provide reasons for account termination and an internal complaint mechanism for EU users — provisions this clause does not address for U.S. users.
