Cursor can change, limit, or shut down any part of the Service at any time without telling you first, and you cannot hold Cursor liable for any impact this has, even if you paid for the affected features.

This provision authorizes Anysphere to modify or discontinue paid features without notice and without liability, which means users relying on specific paid functionalities have limited contractual recourse if those features are changed or removed.
Interpretive note: The enforceability of an absolute no-liability clause for changes to paid features may be limited under applicable consumer protection law in certain jurisdictions, including EU member states and California.
Under this provision, users, including those on paid subscription plans, may lose access to specific features or the Service itself without advance notice and without a right to compensation; the agreement recommends that users retain copies of their Content independently to avoid data loss.

"Anysphere may modify or discontinue all or any portion of the Service at any time (including by limiting or discontinuing certain features of the Service), temporarily or permanently, without notice to you. Anysphere will have no liability for any change to the Service, including any paid-for functionalities of the Service, or any suspension or termination of your access to or use of the Service. You should retain copies of any Content as needed so that you have access in the event the Service is modified and you lose access to such Content.— Excerpt from Cursor's Cursor Terms of Service
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Unilateral modification and no-liability clauses in consumer contracts may engage FTC unfair or deceptive practices standards where paid features are materially altered or removed. State consumer protection laws in California and other jurisdictions may impose implied obligations of good faith and fair dealing that constrain the practical enforceability of absolute no-liability clauses. EU consumer protection frameworks may similarly restrict the enforceability of terms that entirely exclude liability for service changes affecting paid subscriptions. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The clause is broadly worded to cover paid-for functionalities, which creates financial risk for users on premium or enterprise plans if core features are discontinued. The advisory to retain copies of Content acknowledges a potential data loss scenario but does not constitute a data backup commitment by Anysphere. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU consumer protection law, including the Consumer Rights Directive, may limit the enforceability of terms that permit unilateral material changes to paid digital services without proportionate notice or right of withdrawal. UK consumer rights legislation similarly imposes constraints on unfair contract terms. California's consumer protection statutes may also be relevant for paid subscription changes. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise customers should negotiate data portability and service continuity commitments in any separately executed MSA. The no-liability clause with respect to paid functionalities should be flagged during enterprise procurement, as it may conflict with enterprise expectations of service level agreements and contractual commitments regarding feature availability. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams advising enterprise clients should assess whether this clause's exclusion of liability for paid feature changes is enforceable under applicable law, particularly in EU/EEA jurisdictions. Organizations should implement data export and backup procedures for any Content stored in or generated by the Cursor Service, as the agreement places this responsibility on the user.
