Hello Strava developers,
I’m trying to build a small ecommerce site for running shirts. Each design represents a running distance and time category, such as a marathon finished under a particular time.
I’d like to let a runner connect their Strava account, verify that one of their activities meets the criteria for a design, and then show them that shirt as an item they can choose to buy.
The intended flow is about the individual runner and their own activity. It isn’t designed to rank runners or show activity details to other users. I’m trying to understand whether this use is permitted under the current API Agreement and Policy—particularly whether checking an activity to determine eligibility for a product offer could count as enabling a virtual race or competition.
I’m asking for policy guidance, not increased API access. Could someone point me to the relevant rule or clarify whether this use case is allowed? If this needs to go through the formal review process, please let me know which form or process applies to a use-case question.
Thanks,
David
