Why it matters

EU and UK users have significantly stronger legal protections than users in other jurisdictions, including formal rights to appeal content removal and account suspension decisions.

Consumer impact

By using X, you grant the platform an extremely broad, royalty-free license to use, modify, and distribute your content worldwide, while X's financial liability to you is capped at just $100. X can suspend or terminate your account not just for rule violations, but also for prolonged inactivity or what it deems 'commercial inviability', with limited recourse available to most users. You can deactivate your account at any time by visiting your account settings to terminate the agreement.
