This page describes what the document states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
This document establishes the terms governing access to and use of Target.com, Target mobile applications, and Target Circle membership services. The agreement authorizes Target to obtain a perpetual, royalty-free license to any user-submitted content including reviews, photos, and other materials, and requires users to resolve legal disputes through individual arbitration rather than through court proceedings or class actions. The terms permit Target to modify these conditions at any time, with continued use constituting acceptance of modifications.
This document constitutes Target Corporation's Terms and Conditions governing use of its website (target.com), mobile applications, and related digital services, operating under Minnesota law with mandatory arbitration and class action waiver provisions. The agreement states that users grant Target a broad, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable license to use, reproduce, modify, publish, and distribute any content they submit, and the terms authorize Target to collect and use personal data across its digital ecosystem including loyalty, payment, registry, and advertising platforms. Notably, the terms include a mandatory arbitration clause administered by the American Arbitration Association with a class action waiver, a shortened dispute notice requirement, and an intellectual property license that the agreement asserts is perpetual and irrevocable for user-submitted content, provisions that while common in large retail platforms are material to consumer rights; applicable law in certain jurisdictions may limit enforceability of class action waivers and arbitration mandates for particular claim types. The document engages the FTC Act regarding unfair or deceptive practices, the California Consumer Privacy Act given explicit CCPA-related API endpoints visible in the document infrastructure, and potentially COPPA given the platform's broad consumer reach; Minnesota law is designated as governing, though state consumer protection laws in California and other jurisdictions may independently apply regardless of that choice-of-law provision.
