You agree to defend and compensate Strava for any legal costs or damages arising from your use of the Services, your content, or your violation of these Terms or any third-party rights.
If someone sues Strava because of something you posted or did on the platform, you may be legally required to pay Strava's legal defense costs and any resulting damages—even for unintentional violations.
Broad user indemnification clauses in consumer-facing agreements may be unenforceable in EU jurisdictions under the Unfair Contract Terms Directive and may attract regulatory scrutiny in consumer protection enforcement actions. Legal teams should assess the scope of the indemnification, particularly as it extends to third-party claims arising from user-generated content and third-party integrations.

Strava's Terms grant the company a broad, royalty-free license to use your uploaded content—including workout data, routes, and photos—for commercial purposes including product development and third-party sharing. Subscription fees auto-renew automatically, and refunds are generally not provided except in limited circumstances. You can opt out of the mandatory arbitration clause by sending written notice to Strava within 30 days of first accepting these Terms at legal@strava.com.
