Squarespace Terms of Service

This document governs use of Squarespace's website building, hosting, domain, and e-commerce platform services, establishing a contractual relationship between Squarespace Inc. and users under New York law with mandatory dispute resolution provisions. The agreement states that users grant Squarespace a broad, royalty-free license to use content uploaded to the platform, authorizes Squarespace to modify or terminate services with or without notice, and establishes that subscription fees are generally non-refundable with automatic renewal at the then-current rate. The terms include a mandatory arbitration clause with class action waiver that limits users to individual claims before the American Arbitration Association, and the agreement asserts a broad limitation of liability capping Squarespace's exposure to amounts paid in the prior twelve months, provisions that are common in SaaS agreements but represent significant limitations on user recourse. The agreement engages GDPR and CCPA privacy frameworks through its incorporated Privacy Policy, and the e-commerce and payment processing features implicate FTC Act consumer protection requirements and, where applicable, state-level consumer protection statutes; enforceability of the mandatory arbitration provision and class action waiver may vary by jurisdiction, particularly for EU and UK users where such clauses face regulatory scrutiny.
