This provision establishes that health-adjacent and fitness performance data, including inferences derived from workout activity, feeds internal machine learning models and direct AI interactions under features such as Peloton IQ. The provision includes a stated opt-out mechanism but does not specify the scope of data categories that feed AI training after opt-out.
Interpretive note: The scope of data categories that continue to feed AI model training after a user opts out of 'Personalized Experiences' is not explicitly specified in the document, creating ambiguity about the practical effect of the opt-out on training data flows.
Under this clause, the agreement authorizes Peloton to use fitness performance data, health goals, and behavioral inferences to train internal AI models and to power AI features that interact directly with members. The policy states that data shared with third-party AI providers is deidentified and contractually restricted from external AI training, and that members can opt out of personalized experiences via the Preferences toggle.

You always have control and can opt out by toggling off "Personalized Experiences" in the Privacy section of Preferences in your Profile. [...] Some of these Inferences based on activity and recommendations utilize internal machine learning models and may be supported by AI Service Providers. We use this data to build, train, analyze and improve the accuracy of our models. We manually review the recommendations and Inferences based on activity produced by the models against the underlying data from which the recommendations and/or personalizations were made.Excerpt from Peloton's Privacy Policy
