Terms of Use

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of MyBikes (“MyBikes”, the “App”, the “Service”), operated by Covian LLC (“Covian”, “we”, “us”, “our”). By creating an account, expressly consenting to connect your Strava account, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not connect your Strava account or use the Service.

1. The Service

MyBikes helps cyclists organize bikes, components, tools, spare parts, devices, service records, and maintenance intervals. It may provide reminders, preparation checklists, guides, photo-recognition tools, and AI-assisted bike-maintenance guidance based only on text and non-Strava files that you submit directly to the applicable feature. Availability depends on configuration and applicable third-party rules. MyBikes is an informational tool and does not replace professional mechanic judgment, manufacturer instructions, or your own inspection of equipment.

2. Strava authorization and data use

Strava provides sign-in and, only after your express authorization on Strava’s OAuth screen, read-only access to the scopes displayed there. MyBikes requests only read, profile:read_all, and activity:read_all to authenticate you and synchronize your profile, bikes, and cycling activities, including private activities that you have authorized Strava to disclose. MyBikes does not request write permission. The data actually available to MyBikes remains subject to the permissions you grant and your Strava privacy settings.

MyBikes uses authorized Strava data only to provide the registered MyBikes experience to you—for example, showing your own bikes and rides, calculating maintenance usage, preparing maintenance reminders, identifying available ride-device signals, and offering links to your original activities. Your Strava data is not displayed to other users, sold, used for targeted advertising, or supplied to an AI provider. More detail appears in our Privacy Policy.

3. Read-only integration and unavailable features

MyBikes cannot create, post, or modify a Strava activity. Community features, public sharing of Strava data, and access to Strava data through MCP, an agent, a proxy, or another intermediary are not available. Strava data is shown only in the authenticated account of the athlete who authorized access.

4. Your account

You are responsible for activity on your account and for maintaining control of your Strava account. You must provide accurate information and must not allow another person to access their Strava data through your MyBikes session. You must be at least 16 years old, or the applicable age of digital consent in your country, to use the Service.

5. Free Strava-linked functionality and paid independent features

Authorized Strava synchronization, private display, maintenance calculations, and maintenance reminders are free and do not depend on a trial, plan, or payment. Covian does not charge you for access to or use of the Strava API, Strava data, or any service or functionality included in or related to the Strava Platform. These functions are not sold, resold, rented, sublicensed, or conditioned on purchasing a MyBikes subscription.

MyBikes may offer a 90-day trial and an annual subscription currently priced at $20 USD per year only for first-party functionality independent of the Strava Platform, such as expanded user-created workshop-inventory capacity, private storage for files you upload directly, and advanced organization of your tools, spare parts, and devices. Where offered, paid subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled. Prices may change with prior notice. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and partial refunds are not provided except where required by law.

6. User content and AI-assisted features

You may add photos, bike information, service notes, inventory details, mechanic reviews, review replies, and chat messages independently of Strava. You retain your rights in that content and give us a limited permission to host, display, and process it only as needed to provide, secure, and support the feature you request. A mechanic review and its reply thread are public and must reflect a genuine experience; they must not contain unlawful, abusive, deceptive, or private third-party information. The review author and listed workshop may reply, and authorized administrators may hide a review and its complete discussion for moderation. We may remove content that violates these Terms or applicable law. Strava API materials, Strava data, Strava photo URLs, and raw or derived Strava data are never submitted to, used to operate, or used to train, fine-tune, ground, evaluate, or otherwise develop an AI system. An AI-assisted feature may receive only the specific eligible text and non-Strava file that you submit directly to that feature; it does not receive Strava data or other Strava-derived account context. AI output can be incomplete or incorrect. Verify safety-critical advice against manufacturer documentation or with a qualified mechanic.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to disrupt the Service; attempt unauthorized access; circumvent Strava consent, permission, rate-limit, or access controls; use another person’s Strava data; scrape or bulk-export Strava data; use the Service to build a competing, intermediary, proxy, agent, or resale service for Strava data; violate another service’s terms or applicable law; upload unlawful or harmful content; or resell or sublicense the Service without written permission.

8. Third-party services, mechanic directory, and support

The Service depends on third-party services, including Strava, and may link to third-party guides, videos, payment services, mechanics, workshops, or websites. Their availability, content, terms, and privacy practices are controlled by their respective providers. Mechanic profiles, ratings, services, availability, pricing, qualifications, work quality, and rider reviews may be supplied by workshops, administrators, or riders and should be verified before booking. MyBikes may transmit a rider's requested service, preferred time, selected bike, comment, name, and contact email to the selected workshop to facilitate an appointment request. A visit is confirmed only when the mechanic accepts the rider's requested time or the rider accepts a different time proposed by the mechanic. Reviews express their authors’ opinions and are not a MyBikes guarantee. Listing, ranking, proximity, or appointment status in MyBikes is not a guarantee, certification, employment relationship, or endorsement, and any repair agreement is directly between the rider and mechanic. MyBikes is an independent application and is not developed, endorsed, certified, or sponsored by Strava. Covian—not Strava—is responsible for MyBikes customer support and maintenance. Questions about MyBikes should be directed to Covian using the contact details below.

9. Third-party warranty disclaimer

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND MATERIALS—INCLUDING THE STRAVA API MATERIALS, STRAVA DATA, STRAVA MARKS, AND STRAVA PLATFORM—ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” ON BEHALF OF STRAVA AND EACH OTHER THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDER, COVIAN DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. NO THIRD-PARTY PROVIDER WARRANTS THAT ITS SERVICE OR MATERIALS WILL BE AVAILABLE, UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ACCURATE, OR ERROR-FREE.

10. Safety and MyBikes warranty disclaimer

MAINTENANCE INTERVALS, VISUALS, VIDEOS, AND TIPS ARE GENERAL GUIDANCE. ALWAYS FOLLOW COMPONENT MANUFACTURER INSTRUCTIONS AND CONSULT A QUALIFIED MECHANIC WHEN IN DOUBT. CYCLING AND BICYCLE REPAIR INVOLVE RISK. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MYBIKES IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

11. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Covian LLC shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages, or for loss of use, data, business, revenue, or profits, arising from the Service, even if advised that such damage was possible. Covian’s aggregate liability shall not exceed the amount you paid Covian in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Strava and every other third-party service provider, and their respective affiliates, employees, agents, licensors, users, and partners, are excluded from all liability for consequential, special, punitive, exemplary, incidental, and indirect damages, including loss of use, data, business, revenue, or profits, arising from MyBikes or your use of their services or materials, regardless of the legal theory and even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

12. Disconnecting Strava and deleting your account

Approved workshop owners can sign in by a one-time email link without Strava. Strava is optional for their personal cycling features. You may withdraw authorization at any time by using Disconnect Strava or Delete account in MyBikes, by revoking MyBikes in your Strava account settings, or by emailing serega@budyakov.com. Delete account permanently deletes the entire MyBikes profile. Disconnecting or revoking Strava deletes tokens and cached or derived Strava data. If email sign-in is available, workshop access and separately supplied MyBikes content remain; otherwise the whole account is deleted. Narrow legal recordkeeping requirements are described in the Privacy Policy. MyBikes confirms deletion from the live account store in the interface for an in-app request or through an available contact channel for another request.

13. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate an account that breaches these Terms or creates risk for the Service, users, Strava, or other third parties. If Covian ceases using the Strava API or its Strava API access ends, Covian will discontinue the integration and delete affected Strava data as required by the applicable Strava terms.

14. Changes

We may update these Terms as the Service evolves. Material changes will be announced in the App or by email before they take effect where required. If a change expands the type or scope of Strava data collected, we will provide notice and obtain any new authorization or consent required before collecting that data.

15. Contact

Questions, customer-support requests, deletion requests, and legal notices can be sent to serega@budyakov.com. The Service is operated by Covian LLC in the United States.
