What it is

Airtable disclaims liability for indirect, consequential, incidental, special, punitive, and exemplary damages including loss of profits, data, and goodwill. Total aggregate liability for any claims is capped at fees paid to Airtable in the twelve months preceding the claim, applied cumulatively across all claims rather than per individual incident.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes a cumulative aggregate liability cap equal to twelve months of fees paid, which for free-tier users results in a cap of zero dollars. The cumulative rather than per-claim structure means that the cap applies across all claims arising during the relevant period, which is operationally material for organizations with significant data stored in Airtable.

Interpretive note: The enforceability of the consequential damages disclaimer and cumulative liability cap varies by jurisdiction and may be constrained by applicable consumer protection law in EU, UK, and certain U.S. state contexts.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Under this clause, Airtable's total financial exposure for any claims brought by a user is limited to fees paid in the prior twelve months, applied cumulatively and not per incident. Users on free plans receive no fee-based damages recovery under this structure. Indirect and consequential damages including data loss and loss of profits are disclaimed entirely to the maximum extent permitted by law.
