Terms of Use (EULA)

Effective date: 2026-04-18

This End User License Agreement (“EULA”) is a legal agreement between you and Dr Quentin Pleyers (“Company”, “we”, “us”), based in Vollsjö, Sweden, for the Stride mobile application and the stride.ac website (collectively, the “Services”).

1. Acceptance

By downloading, installing, or using Stride, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

2. License

• We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Services for your personal or professional internal purposes.
• You will not reverse engineer, decompile, resell, sublicense, or use the Services to build a competing product.
• You are responsible for complying with applicable laws, including obtaining permissions to record individuals or animals where required.

3. Subscriptions and in-app purchases

• Stride offers free and paid tiers (Stride Plus and Stride Pro).
• Paid subscriptions are billed through Apple’s App Store. Prices are shown in the store before purchase.
• Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal date.

4. Clinical disclaimer

Stride provides decision support and educational information only. It is not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, or replace a full clinical examination by a qualified veterinarian. You remain solely responsible for your professional decisions and for complying with local regulations regarding veterinary practice and medical devices.

5. Your content and data sharing

Videos you record are processed entirely on your device. You retain all rights to your content.

5.1 Data sharing for research (“Share with Stride”)

By using Stride with the “Share with Stride” feature enabled (on by default), you agree that:

• Analysis results (gait metrics, asymmetry values, limb phase and angle data) are transmitted to our servers.
• Cropped video recordings are uploaded over WiFi only.
• Horse and owner names you entered, as well as veterinary, farrier, physio, and training notes linked to the analysis, are included.
• An anonymous device identifier, device model, iOS version, app version, and your device locale country code are sent.

This data is used solely for:

• Improving the accuracy and reliability of Stride’s gait analysis algorithms.
• Research into equine biomechanics and lameness detection.
• Debugging and quality assurance.

This data is not sold and is not shared with third parties.

5.2 Opting out

You can disable data sharing at any time: go to Quick Settings → Data Sharing → Share with Stride and turn the toggle off. No further data will be sent. To request deletion of previously shared data, contact info@stride.ac.

5.3 iCloud backups

If you use the backup feature, your data is stored in your personal iCloud container. We do not have access to your iCloud backups.

6. Acceptable use

• No unlawful, infringing, harmful, or abusive use.
• No introduction of malware or attempts to disrupt or bypass security.
• No automated data extraction, scraping, or API abuse.

7. Availability and beta features

The Services may change or be temporarily unavailable. Beta and pre-release features (including “Advanced Analysis”) are provided “as is” and may be modified or withdrawn without notice.

8. Warranties and limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services are provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, express or implied (including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement). Our aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Services shall not exceed the amounts you paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or €50 if no payments were made.

9. Indemnity

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from claims arising from your misuse of the Services or violation of these Terms.

10. Intellectual property

The Stride name, logo, analysis algorithms, and all related marks and software are our property or licensed to us. No rights are granted except as expressly stated in these Terms.

11. Privacy

Our processing of personal data is governed by the Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

12. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services if you breach these Terms. Upon termination, your license to use the app ends. Provisions that by their nature should survive (liability limitations, indemnity, intellectual property) will continue.

13. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Sweden and applicable EU law, excluding conflict-of-laws rules. Disputes shall be submitted to the courts of Sweden, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protections in your country of residence.

14. Apple-specific terms

• This EULA is between you and Dr Quentin Pleyers, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content.
• Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for Stride.
• In case of any failure to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple for a refund of the purchase price (if any). Apple has no other warranty obligation.
• Apple is not responsible for any claims relating to the app, including product liability, legal compliance, or intellectual property infringement.
• Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of this EULA and may enforce it against you.

15. Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post changes here and update the effective date. For material changes, we will notify you in the app. Your continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
