Summary

Tinder's Terms of Use govern how you can use the service and set out key financial and legal limits. Any content you post gives Tinder a permanent, royalty-free right to use it—including for AI—and every virtual item purchase is final with no refund. If you have a dispute with Tinder, you cannot sue in court or before a jury; instead it must go through individual arbitration, and the most Tinder will ever owe you is $100 or what you paid over the last two years.

Analysis

These Terms of Use establish the conditions under which users access Tinder's Services, including eligibility requirements whose lapse automatically revokes access without notice or grace period. Users grant Tinder a worldwide, perpetual, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free license to exploit their content across a broad range of uses—including AI training and product development—indefinitely and without compensation. All purchases of virtual items are final and non-refundable, subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled, and Tinder's aggregate liability for all claims is capped at the greater of $100 USD or amounts paid in the prior 24 months, with indirect, consequential, and punitive damages excluded entirely. Disputes are subject to binding individual arbitration under Texas law and the Federal Arbitration Act, with both jury trials and court litigation waived, and users bear a broad indemnification obligation in favor of Tinder and its affiliates.

What this means for you

As an individual user, your content—including photos and other material you post—is licensed to Tinder permanently and can be used for AI training and product development with no payment to you. Every in-app purchase is non-refundable, and your subscription renews automatically until you take affirmative steps to cancel. If you stop meeting eligibility requirements, your access is cut off automatically with no notice. Your financial recovery from Tinder for any claim is capped at $100 or your prior 24 months of payments, whichever is greater, and you may not pursue indirect or punitive damages. To avoid ongoing charges, you must affirmatively cancel your subscription before the next renewal period.
