Fireworks AI's updated Terms of Service now explicitly disclose mandatory individual arbitration and class action/jury trial waivers that were not prominently featured in the prior version. The updated terms state that disputes must be resolved through final and binding individual arbitration, and users waive their right to seek relief in court, have a jury trial, or participate in class actions. Users can opt out of arbitration by following instructions in Section 16, but continued use of the Service constitutes acceptance of these dispute resolution terms.

2 new obligations

Consumers: If you have a dispute with Fireworks AI, you cannot sue in court or participate in a class action; instead, a private arbitrator will decide the case.

Consumers: You give up your right to have a jury decide your case and your right to join or start a class action lawsuit against Fireworks AI.
