Terms of Use

By using Rivals you agree to these terms.

Run safely

Rivals is for fun and training. Always pay attention to traffic, your surroundings and your health. Don't look at your phone when it isn't safe, and stop if you feel unwell. You run at your own risk.

Your account

You sign in with Apple or Strava and are responsible for activity on your Rivals account. Your use of Apple's and Strava's services is also covered by their own terms. Strava is optional, and Rivals isn't made or endorsed by Strava or Apple. If you connect Garmin, your use of Garmin's services is covered by Garmin's own terms, and Rivals isn't made or endorsed by Garmin.

Fair play

Race honestly. Don't use vehicles, faked GPS, or anything else that misrepresents your run. Rivals may flag or remove results that look implausible and may suspend accounts that abuse the service or other people.

Respect other people

Only invite people who want to race you. Don't use voice chat, names, invites, comments or cheers to harass anyone.

Comments and what you post

You're responsible for what you post. No objectionable content: no harassment, bullying, threats, hate speech or slurs, sexual content, spam, or anything illegal. Rivals blocks some offensive words automatically, but that doesn't catch everything.

If you see something that breaks these rules, report it: tap the comment or the person and choose Report. You can also block anyone, which hides you from each other. We review reports and act on them promptly. We can remove any content and suspend or close accounts that break these terms, without notice.

The service

Rivals is provided as is. Distance, pace and other measurements depend on your phone's GPS and sensors and can be inaccurate. We may change or stop features at any time. To the extent the law allows, Rivals is not liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from your use of the app.

Garmin data

If you connect Garmin, Rivals shows data that comes from your Garmin device and Garmin Connect. Garmin provides that data as is, with no warranty, and isn't responsible for how Rivals works or for anything you do based on what Rivals shows. Rivals isn't a medical or safety device: don't rely on it, or on Garmin data shown in it, for health decisions or in an emergency. Garmin and Garmin device names are trademarks of Garmin Ltd. or its subsidiaries.

Ending your use

You can stop using Rivals and delete your account at any time from Profile → Settings → Delete account.
