Summary

HubSpot's Terms of Service establish the contractual framework governing business customers' use of HubSpot's CRM, marketing, and sales software products. The agreement designates the customer as responsible for all actions taken by team members, contractors, and contacts within the platform, and establishes customer liability limitations capping HubSpot's financial obligation to fees paid in the preceding twelve months. Customers whose operations involve personal data of EU or California residents are required to execute HubSpot's Data Processing Agreement, available through legal@hubspot.com.

Technical / Legal Breakdown

This document is HubSpot's Customer Terms of Service, governing the contractual relationship between HubSpot and business customers (referred to as 'Customers') who subscribe to HubSpot's software-as-a-service platforms, including CRM, marketing, sales, and service tools. The agreement states that Customers are responsible for their use of the services and for their end users' compliance with the terms, and the terms authorize HubSpot to suspend or terminate access for violations, process Customer Data as a data processor under a separate Data Processing Agreement, and modify the services with reasonable notice. The agreement includes a mutual limitation of liability capping damages at amounts paid in the prior twelve months, and the terms assert that HubSpot may update the agreement upon notice, with continued use constituting acceptance; these unilateral modification rights are common across SaaS platforms though their enforceability may vary by jurisdiction. The agreement engages GDPR and CCPA frameworks through its reference to a separate Data Processing Agreement and data handling obligations, making it particularly relevant for EU and California-based customers or customers whose end users include EU data subjects; the DPA incorporated by reference carries its own compliance obligations that legal teams should evaluate separately. HubSpot's choice of Massachusetts law and exclusive jurisdiction in Massachusetts courts as governing law represents a material consideration for non-US customers, as applicable consumer protection or data protection law in the customer's jurisdiction may interact with or supersede these forum selection and choice-of-law provisions.

What changed HubSpot's Terms of Service navigation menu was updated on May 14, 2026 to reflect product and company changes. The updated footer and product listings now include new product offerings (HubSpot AEO, AEO Sensor, Website Templates) and a new company section link (Sustainability), while removing Template Marketplace from the main navigation. These are navigation and organizational changes to the website structure, not modifications to substantive contractual terms or user obligations.
Why this matters This change affects only the website navigation structure and product menu visibility. No substantive changes were made to service terms, user rights, data handling, or consumer obligations. The updated navigation now displays additional product offerings and a company sustainability link.

What changed HubSpot reorganized the navigation menu in its Customer Terms of Service legal center on April 29, 2026. The Privacy Policy link moved from its position in the 'For Customers' section to the 'For Everyone' section. This is a structural change to how legal documents are organized and presented, with no changes to the actual privacy policy terms or customer obligations.
Why this matters This change affects how customers navigate HubSpot's legal documentation but does not alter any substantive terms of service, privacy practices, or consumer rights. The Privacy Policy is still accessible to all users, now organized under the 'For Everyone' section rather than the customer-specific section. No consumer action is required in response to this menu reorganization.
