This page describes what the document states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
“the aggregate liability of the CLOUDFLARE ENTITIES to you for any and all claims...IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID TO CLOUDFLARE TO ACCESS AND USE THE SERVICE IN THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE CLAIM.”
“FEES ARE NONREFUNDABLE. YOU WILL BE BILLED IN FULL FOR THE SUBSCRIPTION TERM IN WHICH YOU CANCEL AND NO REFUNDS WILL BE PROVIDED FOR THE UNUSED PORTION OF SUCH SUBSCRIPTION TERM.”
“All of your subscriptions to Paid Services with a Subscription Term will automatically renew for periods equal to your initial Subscription Term, and you will be charged at our then-current rates unless you cancel...”
“Cloudflare will defend you against any third party claim...to the extent that such claim is based on an allegation that a Paid Service, when used as authorized under this Agreement, infringes a United States or European Union patent or registered copyright”
“We may at our sole discretion terminate your user account or Suspend or terminate your use or access to the Service at any time, with or without notice for any reason or no reason at all.”
“Cloudflare retains all right, title, and interest in all models, observations, reports, analyses, statistics, databases and other information created...from server, network or traffic data generated by Cloudflare...”
These Terms govern your access to Cloudflare's Services under a limited, revocable license that Cloudflare can cancel at any time for any reason. If you pay for a subscription, it renews automatically at current rates and all fees are non-refundable even if you cancel mid-term. Any dispute with Cloudflare must go through binding arbitration, and you give up your right to a jury trial and the ability to join a class action.
Cloudflare's Terms of Use establish the conditions under which users access and use the Services through a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license that Cloudflare may revoke at its sole discretion at any time, with or without notice or cause. The document caps Cloudflare's aggregate financial liability to amounts paid by the user in the preceding 12 months and excludes all indirect, incidental, special, consequential, and punitive damages entirely. All fees are non-refundable, subscriptions auto-renew at then-current rates for the same term length, and access may not be resold, transferred, or used by third parties. Disputes are resolved exclusively through binding arbitration with jury-trial and class-action waivers, while Cloudflare retains full ownership of all derivative data products it creates from server, network, and traffic data.
Cloudflare can suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without notice, and any fees you have paid are non-refundable even if your subscription is cancelled before the term ends. Your paid subscription will renew automatically for the same length at Cloudflare's then-current rates unless you actively cancel beforehand. If you are on the free tier, you may not process or collect credit card information on any property using those Free Services. If you believe Cloudflare has harmed you, the maximum amount you can recover is limited to what you paid Cloudflare in the 12 months before your claim arose, and you must pursue that claim through binding arbitration rather than in court.
