Higher = more protective of you, the user/customer — a deliberately user-protective lens, not a universal “good vs bad” score. Computed algorithmically from Vercel’s cited governance stances; no dimension we haven’t confidently read is ever counted against the score. Free, reproducible, and never purchasable.

Key Governance Provisions
High Direct Damages Cap at Greater of 100 Dollars or Six Months Fees

Users who suffer significant direct harm may only recover up to the greater of $100 or six months of fees paid, regardless of the actual magnitude of damages.

High Class Action Waiver for All Proceedings

Users cannot aggregate Claims with others into a class action, which limits collective legal remedies and may make it economically impractical to pursue smaller individual Claims.

High Binding JAMS Arbitration for All Remaining Claims

Users cannot bring remaining Claims in court; even disputes about whether arbitration applies are decided within the arbitration process itself, not by a judge.

High Mutual Exclusion of Consequential and Indirect Damages

Users cannot recover indirect or consequential damages from Vercel regardless of the severity or foreseeability of the harm, which significantly limits available remedies.

High All Fees Non-Refundable Unless Stated Otherwise

Users who cancel, downgrade, or experience service issues are not entitled to refunds unless a specific written exception exists in the Agreement.
