Terms of Service

Last Updated: January 2026

Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using the Steps to Miles Calculator website ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the Service.

These terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who access or use the Service.

Description of Service

Steps to Miles Calculator provides free online calculator tools that convert between steps and distance measurements. The Service includes:

  • Steps to miles/kilometers conversion calculator
  • Miles/kilometers to steps conversion calculator
  • Steps per mile calculator
  • Educational content about step counting and distance measurement

The Service is provided free of charge. No account registration is required. The calculators are accessible via standard web browsers on desktop and mobile devices.

Disclaimer of Warranties

The calculations provided by this Service are estimates for informational purposes only.

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to:

  • Warranties of accuracy, reliability, or completeness of results
  • Warranties of fitness for a particular purpose
  • Warranties of non-infringement
  • Warranties that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free

Calculator results are not professional, medical, financial, legal, or engineering advice. The calculations use general formulas based on population averages and may not accurately reflect your individual circumstances. Results should be verified by qualified professionals for any important decisions.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenues, whether incurred directly or indirectly, or any loss of data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses resulting from:

  • Your use of or inability to use the Service
  • Any decisions, actions, or outcomes based on calculator results
  • Any errors or inaccuracies in the calculations or content
  • Any unauthorized access to or use of our servers
  • Any interruption or cessation of the Service

You use this Service at your own risk. We are not responsible for any consequences resulting from reliance on calculator results.

Accuracy

We strive for accuracy in our calculations based on established formulas and methodologies. The calculator uses the following approach:

  • Stride length is estimated as a percentage of height (walking: 41.5%, running: 52%)
  • Distance is calculated using the formula: Miles = (Steps × Stride Length) ÷ 5,280
  • These formulas represent population averages from biomechanical research

However, we do not guarantee the accuracy of results. Individual stride length varies based on factors including leg length, walking speed, terrain, fitness level, and gait patterns. For precise measurements, use GPS tracking devices or measured courses.

The formulas and methodology used are documented on our About page.

  • Use the calculators for personal, non-commercial purposes
  • Link to our website from your website, blog, or social media

Intellectual Property

The website design, layout, graphics, text content, and code are protected by intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without permission.

The mathematical formulas used for calculations (such as distance = steps × stride length ÷ 5,280) are in the public domain and are not claimed as proprietary. The specific implementation, presentation, and surrounding content are protected.

External Links

The Service may contain links to third-party websites or resources. These links are provided for convenience and informational purposes only. We do not endorse and are not responsible for:

Termination

We reserve the right to restrict or terminate access to the Service for any user who violates these terms, engages in abusive behavior, or uses the Service in a manner that could harm the Service or other users.
