Cloudflare makes no guarantees that their services will work as expected, be available when you need them, or be secure — you use them at your own risk.
If Cloudflare's services go down, are breached, or fail to perform as advertised, you have no contractual warranty claim against them — the risk of service failure falls entirely on the subscriber.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Warranty disclaimers in B2C contracts are evaluated under the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC §2-316 for goods, analogously applied to services), state consumer protection statutes, and the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. §2301 et seq.) for written warranties on consumer products. The FTC Act Section 5 applies to deceptive marketing claims that contradict disclaimer language. EU consumers are protected by the EU Consumer Sales and Guarantees Directive (Directive 2019/771) and may have statutory conformity guarantees that cannot be contractually waived. UK consumers have similar non-waivable rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
