Hinge's terms require users to resolve disputes through private arbitration rather than in court, and waive the right to join class action lawsuits, which limits collective legal recourse in the event of a widespread issue. The content license users grant Hinge is broad and sublicensable, meaning photos and profile content may be used across Match Group affiliated services in ways that are not immediately visible to users. You can opt out of the arbitration clause by sending a written notice to Hinge within 31 days of first agreeing to the terms, using the process described in Section 15.
