What it is

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This clause restricts the permissible uses of a specific category of health data collected through third-party integrations, creating a narrower data practice framework for health information than may apply to other types of user data collected by the service.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Strava promises not to sell or use your heart rate, sleep, or HRV data from connected devices for advertising, but this data can still be used to train Strava's AI models and improve its services, which is a meaningful secondary use.
