You can disconnect Garmin at any time through the relevant Sarid Run settings. When you disconnect Garmin, Sarid Run stops future syncing and deletes or invalidates the stored Garmin connection credentials within a reasonable period, subject to technical and operational constraints.

Disabling AI processing may significantly limit the functionality of Sarid Run.

9. Automated Decision-Making

Sarid Run uses automated processing to generate personalized training plans, recovery recommendations, pace targets, and coaching feedback.

These outputs are advisory only. They do not produce legal effects or similarly significant effects on you.

You remain free to ignore, override, or modify any recommendation generated by the Service.

We do not use automated decision-making to deny access to your account or remove core service access based solely on automated profiling.
