Discord Terms of Service

Discord's Terms of Service set the rules for using the platform: you give Discord a license to use your content to run and improve its services, and Discord can suspend or delete your account or content at any time for any reason. If you have a legal dispute with Discord, you must first try to resolve it informally, and after that only through individual binding arbitration — you cannot join a class action lawsuit. Discord's financial liability to you is capped at $100 or what you paid in the past three months, whichever is more.

Discord's Terms of Service establish the contractual framework governing user access to and use of Discord's platform and services. Users grant Discord a broad license to use, reproduce, distribute, create derivative works of, display, and perform their content, limited to providing, developing, and improving Discord's services. Discord retains sole discretion to modify or discontinue features and services, to remove or permanently delete content it determines violates its terms or applicable law, and to suspend or terminate accounts at any time with or without notice or cause. Disputes are subject to mandatory informal resolution as a condition precedent to binding arbitration, which is the exclusive formal resolution mechanism, with class action participation prohibited even for disputes outside the arbitration clause; Discord's total liability is capped at the greater of amounts paid in the three months preceding a claim or $100 USD, with all consequential, incidental, and exemplary damages excluded. Users also bear a broad indemnification obligation covering claims arising from their content, conduct, or violations of Discord's terms.

As a Discord user, your content is subject to a license that permits Discord to use, reproduce, distribute, and create derivative works from it for service-related purposes, and Discord may permanently delete that content at its own determination without a described appeal process. Your account can be suspended or terminated at any time, for any reason, with or without notice. If a dispute arises, you are required to first attempt informal negotiation with Discord before any formal proceeding; after that, your only formal option is individual binding arbitration — you cannot participate in a class action. Discord's liability to you is capped at $100 or your payments over the prior three months, with no recovery available for lost data, lost profits, or similar consequential harms. If you are a parent or guardian who permits a minor to use Discord, you are personally responsible for all activity on that account.
