ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Waiving the right to litigate in court removes users' access to judicial processes, including jury trials, and constrains where and how disputes with Khan Academy can be resolved.

⚠

Interpretive note: The excerpt also references a class action waiver as a distinct legal proposition. That proposition is recorded in omitted_material and addressed separately in clause 28221.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Users who agree to these terms cannot bring disputes against Khan Academy in court; they must instead resolve disputes through binding arbitration.
