You only have one year from when a problem occurs to take any legal action against Midjourney — after that, your right to make a claim is permanently gone.
This analysis describes what Midjourney's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
The clause creates a contractually-defined statute of limitations that supersedes or supplements applicable state statutes of limitations. This establishes a procedural requirement that affects the temporal availability of remedies for both parties.
Midjourney removed substantial sections from its Terms of Service covering age requirements, content rights, DMCA policy, dispute resolution, payment and billing, and community guidelines. The removal of these section headers and their substantive content means users no longer have explicit written guidance on these critical areas within the primary terms document. This creates operational uncertainty about what terms now govern these areas: whether they were relocated to separate policies, consolidated elsewhere, or eliminated entirely cannot be determined from this change summary alone. The absence of explicit terms on dispute resolution, age verification, and content rights represents a material change in contractual transparency.

"You and Midjourney agree that any cause of action arising out of or related to the Services must commence within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues. Otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.— Excerpt from Midjourney's Midjourney Terms of Service
Contractually shortened limitation periods may be unenforceable in certain consumer-facing contexts under California law and other jurisdictions; compliance teams should assess enforceability risk and ensure legal teams are tracking any potential claims within this compressed window.
