This analysis describes what Anthropic's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
This limitation establishes the maximum financial exposure Anthropic accepts for service-related claims, defining the scope of potential damages recovery regardless of claim type or alleged harm. The operational effect is to establish a defined liability ceiling for dispute resolution.
Interpretive note: The phrase 'to the extent permitted by law' preserves statutory limits on enforceability in EU, UK, and certain US state jurisdictions, meaning the cap's practical effect depends on the user's location and the nature of the harm claimed.
Users' recoverable damages for any claims under the terms are restricted to the greater of amounts paid in the preceding 12 months or $100. This mechanism applies across all claim categories, including breach of implied warranty claims.
