This provision contractually shortens the period during which users may bring claims against Fitbit, overriding longer statutory limitation periods that might otherwise apply under state or federal law. Enforceability of this shortened period depends on jurisdiction, as some states and consumer protection frameworks prohibit contractual limitation of statutory claims.
Interpretive note: Enforceability of the one-year limitation period varies by jurisdiction, claim type, and applicable consumer protection statute; courts in some states have declined to enforce such clauses against statutory consumer claims.
Under this clause, users must file any claim related to Fitbit products or services within one year of the claim arising, regardless of longer periods permitted under applicable law. The agreement states that claims filed after one year are barred forever.
