What it is

By submitting any content to the Peloton Service, users grant Peloton a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use, copy, distribute, modify, and create derivative works from that content for any commercial or non-commercial purpose, without compensation. Users also waive moral rights and rights of privacy or publicity in submitted content.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes a broad license that is perpetual and irrevocable, meaning Peloton retains rights to submitted content even after account deletion or service termination. The waiver of moral rights and publicity rights is a materially distinct component that may interact with state right of publicity statutes depending on jurisdiction.

Interpretive note: The enforceability of the moral rights and publicity rights waiver for minor users (ages 13-17) may vary by jurisdiction, and some state right of publicity statutes may limit waiver by or on behalf of minors.
