User Indemnification Obligation

Why it matters

This means users could be personally liable for Stash's legal fees and costs in situations arising from the user's conduct on the platform, which can be financially significant.

Consumer impact

Stash users are subject to mandatory arbitration and waive their right to participate in class action lawsuits, significantly limiting legal recourse if something goes wrong. Stash may unilaterally modify, suspend, or terminate services or fee structures without prior notice, and users' only remedy is to cancel their account. You can opt out of the mandatory arbitration clause by sending written notice to Stash within 30 days of first accepting the Terms.

Applicable agencies

  • FTC
    The FTC has authority over unfair or deceptive acts and practices in commerce and may review asymmetric indemnification clauses in consumer contracts as potentially unfair under Section 5 of the FTC Act.
