Health and Fitness Data Collection

High severity
Share 𝕏 Share in Share 🔒 PDF

What it is

Peloton collects detailed data about every workout you do — including heart rate, calories, cadence, and resistance — and can share that information with third-party companies that help run Peloton's services.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Every workout you complete on a Peloton device generates detailed health and fitness data — including heart rate and calories — that Peloton collects and may share with third-party vendors, creating potential exposure of sensitive health indicators beyond your control.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Export Your Data
    Submit a data access request through Peloton's privacy portal to receive a copy of all fitness and health data collected about you. California residents and EU/UK users have statutory rights to this data.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

Your fitness and health metrics are among the most sensitive personal data categories, and their sharing with third parties creates privacy risks including potential use for insurance, employment, or health assessments beyond your fitness context.

View original clause language
When you use our Services, we may collect information about your workouts, fitness metrics, health indicators, and physical activity including heart rate data, cadence, resistance levels, distance, calories burned, and other performance metrics. This information may be used to personalize your experience, improve our Services, and may be shared with third-party service providers who assist in the operation of our platform.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: This provision implicates GDPR Art. 9 (special categories of personal data — health data requires explicit consent), CCPA/CPRA §1798.121 (sensitive personal information — health and fitness data requires opt-in for sharing), Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (740 ILCS 14/1 et seq.) if biometric identifiers are captured, Washington My Health MY Data Act (2023) which broadly covers consumer health data regardless of HIPAA coverage, and HIPAA 45 C.F.R. Parts 160/164 (Peloton is not a covered entity but the 'HIPAA-adjacent' nature of the data creates reputational and regulatory risk).
