We also listed a provision named “Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver” from our summary of this document. None of its quoted text appears in any capture we hold, so it was withheld. A link to that entry now leads here. This page is a separate clause record, CA-P-001224, whose quotation is checked against a stored capture of the document.
“TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY LAW, YOU AND HINGE EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE DISPUTES IN COURT IN FAVOR OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION...YOU AND HINGE EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO FILE OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.”

This waiver removes access to courts and class proceedings, meaning users must resolve disputes individually through arbitration and cannot join with others to pursue collective claims against Hinge.
Interpretive note: The canonical claim merges two closely related waivers (jury/court and class action) that are technically independent propositions; the class action waiver is recorded in omitted_material for completeness, though both are stated in the claim given their inseparability in this clause.
The reader cannot sue Hinge in court, cannot demand a jury trial, and cannot join or file a class action; any dispute must proceed as individual arbitration.
