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
These terms govern how you can use xAI's Service and what rights you give up by doing so. When you submit content, you give xAI a permanent, irrevocable license to use it for any purpose. If something goes wrong, xAI's financial liability to you is capped at the greater of what you paid or $100, you cannot join a class-action lawsuit against xAI, and any dispute must be pursued in specific Texas courts.
This document establishes the terms governing user access to and use of xAI's Service, setting out a broad intellectual property license under which users grant xAI an irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide right to use, copy, modify, distribute, and aggregate User Content for any purpose. The document imposes a liability cap limiting xAI's exposure to the greater of amounts paid or $100, paired with a full warranty disclaimer to the maximum extent permitted by law, and requires users to indemnify xAI and its affiliates for claims arising from their use, inputs, or terms violations. Dispute resolution is channeled exclusively to specified Texas federal and state courts, with a mandatory class-action and jury-trial waiver binding both parties. Users are prohibited from using the Service or its Outputs to build competing models or services, from making high-stakes automated decisions affecting safety or legal rights, and from a broad range of technical circumvention activities; European Consumers receive a 14-day contractual withdrawal right.
As a user, you permanently lose the ability to reclaim rights to content you submit, since the license you grant xAI is irrevocable and perpetual. Your financial recovery for any harm is capped at the greater of what you paid xAI or $100, and you cannot pursue or join class-action litigation. You are personally responsible for indemnifying xAI against claims that arise from your own use or inputs. Paid subscription fees are non-refundable except where law requires otherwise. If you are a European Consumer, you have the option to close your account and withdraw from the contract within 14 days of entering into it.
