ZOOM AND ITS AFFILIATES AND EACH OF THEIR LICENSORS, AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY: THESE EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES AND LIMITATIONS ON AVAILABLE DAMAGES APPLY TO ALL CLAIMS, OBLIGATIONS, AND LIABILITIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND WHETHER ARISING IN TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY), STATUTE, CONTRACT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF ZOOM, ITS AFFILIATES, OR OUR LICENSORS OR SUPPLIERS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THAT SUCH DAMAGES MAY BE INCURRED BY YOU AND EVEN IF YOUR REMEDIES FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

These exclusions and limitations apply to all claims and liabilities arising from this Agreement, regardless of the legal theory or whether Zoom has been advised of the possibility of such damages. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
You agree to resolve certain disputes with Zoom through binding arbitration (“Arbitration Agreement”). Arbitration means that an arbitrator, and not a judge or a jury, will decide the dispute. The parties expressly waive the right to bring or participate in any kind of class, collective, or mass action, private attorney general action, or any other representative action. This Arbitration Agreement supersedes all prior versions. | You agree to use binding arbitration to resolve disputes with Zoom instead of going to court. This means that an arbitrator will make the final decision, not a judge or jury. The agreement also states that you cannot participate in class or collective actions. This arbitration agreement replaces any previous versions. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.1 Covered Disputes. You and Zoom agree that any dispute or claim between you and Zoom arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services (a “Dispute”), including any related software, hardware, integrations, advertising or marketing communications, your account, or any aspects of your relationship or transactions with Zoom, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court. For purposes of this Arbitration Agreement, a Dispute will also include disputes that arose or involve facts occurring before the existence of this or any prior versions of this Agreement as well as claims that may arise after the termination of this Agreement. LAWSUITS AND ARBITRATIONS HAVE BEEN FILED, OR MAY BE FILED IN THE FUTURE, WHICH COULD AFFECT YOU. YOUR AGREEMENT TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT COULD AFFECT YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THOSE ACTIONS. | You and Zoom agree that any disputes related to this Agreement or the Services will be resolved through binding arbitration instead of going to court. This includes disputes about software, hardware, advertising, your account, or any aspect of your relationship with Zoom. It's important to know that your agreement to this arbitration may impact your participation in any lawsuits or arbitrations that have been filed or may be filed in the future. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.2Exceptions to Arbitration. This Arbitration Agreement shall not require arbitration of the following types of claims brought by either you or Zoom: (i) small claims court actions, if the requirements of the court are met and the claims are only on an individual basis; and (ii) claims pertaining to intellectual property rights, including trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights and patents. | This agreement does not require arbitration for two types of claims: (i) small claims court actions that meet the court's requirements and are brought on an individual basis, and (ii) claims related to intellectual property rights such as trademarks, copyrights, and patents. These exceptions allow for alternative resolution methods for these specific types of claims. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.3 Informal Dispute Resolution First. We want to address any Disputes without needing arbitration. If you have a Dispute with Zoom, prior to initiating arbitration, you agree to mail an individualized request (“Pre-Arbitration Demand”) to ATTN: Litigation Department, Zoom Video Communications, Inc., 55 Almaden Blvd., San Jose, CA 95113 so that we can work together to resolve the Dispute. A Pre-Arbitration Demand is only valid when it pertains to, and is on behalf of, a single individual. A Pre-Arbitration Demand brought on behalf of multiple individuals is invalid as to all. The Pre-Arbitration Demand must include: (i) your name, telephone number, mailing address, and email address associated with your account; (ii) the name, telephone number, mailing address and email address of your counsel, if any; (iii) a description of your Dispute; and (iv) your signature. Likewise, if Zoom has a Dispute with you, Zoom will send an email with its individualized Pre-Arbitration Demand, including the requirements listed above, to the email address associated with your Zoom account. If the Dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) calendar days of when either you or Zoom submitted a Pre-Arbitration Demand, an arbitration can be brought. If you or Zoom have a Dispute involving claims under the exception to arbitration in Section 27.2(2), then this Section 27.3 does not apply to such Dispute. You agree that compliance with this Section 27.3 is a condition precedent to commencing arbitration, and that the arbitrator shall dismiss any arbitration filed without fully and completely complying with these informal dispute resolution procedures. | Before initiating arbitration, both you and Zoom agree to attempt to resolve the dispute through informal means. If you have a dispute with Zoom, you must send an individualized request called a "Pre-Arbitration Demand" to Zoom's Litigation Department, providing specific information about the dispute. Zoom will also send a similar demand to your email address if they have a dispute with you. If the dispute is not resolved within 60 days, arbitration can be pursued. Compliance with this informal resolution process is necessary before proceeding to arbitration. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.4 Arbitration Procedure. If, after completing the informal dispute resolution process set out in Section 27.3, either you or Zoom wishes to initiate arbitration, the initiating party must serve the other party with a demand for arbitration. Any demand for arbitration by you shall be sent to the Zoom Litigation Department address in Section 27.3. Zoom will send any arbitration demand to the email address associated with your Zoom account or to your counsel, if any. You and Zoom agree that the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs this Arbitration Agreement. If the FAA cannot apply for whatever reason, then the state laws governing arbitration procedures where you reside apply. | After attempting informal resolution, if you or Zoom wants to start arbitration, you must send a demand to the other party. The Federal Arbitration Act (or state laws if applicable) will govern the arbitration process. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
The applicable arbitration provider depends on where you live. If you are a California resident, the arbitration shall be administered by ADR Services, Inc. (“ADR Services”) under its Arbitration Rules, available at https://www.adrservices.com/services-2/arbitration-rules. If you are not a California resident, the arbitration shall be administered by National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”) under its operative Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures, available at https://www.namadr.com/resources/rules-fees-forms. This Agreement will govern to the extent it conflicts with the arbitration provider’s rules. If the applicable arbitration provider is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitration provider. If the parties cannot agree on an appropriate alternative arbitration provider, then the parties will ask a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an arbitrator pursuant to 9 U.S.C. § 5. To the extent there is a dispute over which arbitration provider has jurisdiction, a NAM arbitrator shall be appointed to resolve that dispute. | The arbitration provider depends on your location. If you live in California, ADR Services will administer the arbitration. For non-California residents, National Arbitration and Mediation (NAM) will handle it. In case the designated provider is unavailable, an alternative provider will be chosen, and if there's a dispute over jurisdiction, a NAM arbitrator will resolve it. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
Arbitration hearings will take place through videoconferencing by default, unless you and Zoom agree upon another location in writing. A single arbitrator will be appointed. The arbitrator may award damages, declaratory or injunctive relief, and recoverable costs. Any arbitration award may be enforced (such as through a judgment) in any court with jurisdiction. An arbitration award shall have no preclusive effect in another arbitration or court proceeding involving Zoom and a different individual. The arbitrator shall have the exclusive authority to resolve all threshold arbitrability issues, including whether this Agreement is applicable, unconscionable, or enforceable, as well as any defense to arbitration. However, a court has exclusive authority to rule on the Mass Action Waiver in Section 27.6, including any claim that the section is unenforceable, illegal, void or voidable, or that it has been breached. | Arbitration hearings are typically conducted via videoconferencing, unless both parties agree otherwise. A single arbitrator will be chosen to make decisions and can award damages, relief, and costs. The arbitration award can be enforced in a court, but it does not have any impact on other arbitrations or court proceedings involving Zoom and different individuals. The arbitrator has the power to decide if this Agreement is applicable and enforceable, while the court has authority over the Mass Action Waiver in Section 27.6. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
If a request to proceed in small claims court (see Section 27.2(1)), is made after an arbitration has been initiated, but before an arbitrator has been appointed, such arbitration shall be administratively closed. Any controversy over the small claims court’s jurisdiction shall be determined by the small claims court. If you or Zoom challenges the small claims court election in your Dispute, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the small claims court election is unenforceable, then such election shall be severed from this Arbitration Agreement as to your Dispute. However, such court determination shall have no preclusive effect in another arbitration or court proceeding involving Zoom and a different individual. | If a small claims court request is made before an arbitrator is appointed, the arbitration is temporarily closed. Any dispute over the small claims court's authority is resolved by the small claims court. If the small claims court election is deemed unenforceable, it doesn't affect other arbitrations or court proceedings involving Zoom and different individuals. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.5 Jury Trial Waiver. You and Zoom hereby waive any constitutional and statutory rights to sue in court and have a trial in front of a judge or a jury. You and Zoom are instead electing that all Disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section 27.2 above. Court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review. Discovery may be limited in arbitration, and procedures are more streamlined than in court. | You and Zoom waive the right to a trial by judge or jury and choose arbitration for dispute resolution. Court review of arbitration awards is limited, and arbitration procedures are streamlined with limited discovery. Exceptions to arbitration are specified in Section 27.2. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.6 Mass Action Waiver. You and Zoom agree that, except as specified in Section 27.7 below, each of us may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis and not on a class, collective, representative, or mass action basis, and the parties hereby waive all rights to have any Dispute be brought, heard, administered, resolved, or arbitrated on a class, collective, representative, or mass action basis. Subject to this Arbitration Agreement, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the party’s individual claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Arbitration Agreement, if a court decides by means of a final decision, not subject to any further appeal or recourse, that the limitations of this Section 27.6 are invalid or unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief (such as a request for public injunctive relief), you and Zoom agree that that particular claim or request for relief (and only that particular claim or request for relief) shall be severed from the arbitration and shall be pursued in the state or federal courts located in San Jose, California. This subsection does not prevent you or Zoom from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims. | You and Zoom agree to resolve claims on an individual basis, waiving the right to bring class, collective, or mass actions. The arbitrator may award relief only to the individual party seeking it. If a court deems the limitations invalid for a specific claim, that claim can be pursued in San Jose, California, while still participating in a class-wide settlement. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.7 Bellwether Arbitrations. To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, you and Zoom agree that if there are fifty (50) or more individual arbitration demands of a substantially similar nature brought against either party by or with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms, or organizations within a one hundred and eighty (180) day period (“Mass Filing”), the parties shall select sixteen (16) individual arbitration demands (eight (8) per side) for arbitration to proceed (“Bellwether Arbitrations”). Only those sixteen (16) arbitration demands shall be filed with the arbitration provider, and the parties shall hold in abeyance, and not file, the non-Bellwether Arbitrations. Zoom will pay the arbitration provider’s costs for the sixteen (16) Bellwether Arbitrations. The statutes of limitation, including the requirement to file within one (1) year in Section 27.10 below, shall remain tolled when non-Bellwether arbitration demands are held in abeyance. While the Bellwether Arbitrations are adjudicated, no other demand for arbitration that is part of the Mass Filing may be processed, administrated, or adjudicated, and no filing or other administrative costs for such a demand for arbitration shall be due from either party to the arbitration provider. If, contrary to this provision, a party prematurely files non-Bellwether Arbitrations with the arbitration provider, the parties agree that the arbitration provider shall hold those demands in abeyance. | If there are 50 or more similar arbitration demands filed within 180 days by the same law firm or organization, both parties will select 16 demands for Bellwether Arbitrations. Only those 16 demands will proceed, and the remaining demands will be held in abeyance. Zoom will cover the costs of the Bellwether Arbitrations. Other demands in the Mass Filing cannot be processed while the Bellwether Arbitrations are ongoing. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
All parties agree that arbitration demands are of a “substantially similar nature” if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief. Any party may request that the arbitration provider appoint a sole standing administrative arbitrator (“Administrative Arbitrator”) to determine threshold questions such as (i) whether the Bellwether Arbitration process is applicable or enforceable, (ii) whether particular demand(s) are part of a Mass Filing, and (iii) whether demands within a Mass Filing were filed in accordance with this Agreement, including Section 27.3. In an effort to expedite resolution of any such dispute by the Administrative Arbitrator, the parties agree that the Administrative Arbitrator may set forth such procedures as are necessary to resolve any disputes promptly. The Administrative Arbitrator’s costs shall be paid by Zoom. | If the arbitration demands arise from the same event, involve similar legal issues and seek similar relief, they are considered "substantially similar." The parties can request an Administrative Arbitrator to determine if the Bellwether Arbitration process applies and to resolve disputes related to the Mass Filing. Zoom will cover the costs of the Administrative Arbitrator, who may establish necessary procedures to expedite dispute resolution. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
The parties shall work in good faith with the arbitrator to complete each Bellwether Arbitration within one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days of its initial pre-hearing conference. The parties agree that the Bellwether Arbitration process is designed to achieve an overall faster, more efficient, and less costly mechanism for resolving Mass Filings, including the claims of individuals who are not selected for a Bellwether Arbitration. | The parties will cooperate with the arbitrator to finish each Bellwether Arbitration within 120 days. The Bellwether Arbitration process aims to provide a quicker, more efficient, and cost-effective resolution for Mass Filings, including claims of non-selected individuals. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
Following resolution of the Bellwether Arbitrations, the parties agree to engage in a global mediation of all remaining arbitration demands comprising the Mass Filing (“Global Mediation”). The Global Mediation shall be administered by the arbitration provider administering the Bellwether Arbitrations. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining demands for arbitration comprising the Mass Filing within thirty (30) calendar days following the mediation, the remaining demands for arbitration comprising the Mass Filing shall be filed and administered by the arbitration provider on an individual basis pursuant to the arbitration provider’s rules, unless the parties mutually agree otherwise in writing. Any party may request that the arbitration provider appoint an Administrative Arbitrator to determine threshold questions regarding the newly filed demands. | Remaining arbitration demands in the Mass Filing will undergo Global Mediation. If unresolved within 30 days, they will be filed individually unless mutually agreed. An Administrative Arbitrator can address initial questions. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
The parties agree to cooperate in good faith with the arbitration provider to implement the Bellwether Arbitration process, including the payment of filing and administrative costs for the Bellwether Arbitrations, deferring any filing costs associated with the non-Bellwether Arbitration Mass Filings until the Bellwether Arbitrations and subsequent Global Mediation have concluded, and cooperate on any steps to minimize the time and costs of arbitration, which may include: (i) the appointment of a discovery special master to assist the arbitrator in the resolution of discovery disputes; and (ii) the adoption of an expedited calendar of the arbitration proceedings. This Bellwether Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class, collective, or mass action of any kind, or an arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as expressly set forth in this provision. The statutes of limitation applicable to each arbitration demand within a Mass Filing, including the requirement to file within one (1) year in Section 27.10 below, shall remain tolled from the time a party makes a Pre-Arbitration Demand to the time when that party files the arbitration demand with the arbitration provider. | The parties agree to cooperate with the arbitration provider for the Bellwether Arbitration process, including cost payments. Filing costs for non-Bellwether Arbitration Mass Filings will be deferred until after the Bellwether Arbitrations and Global Mediation. Steps may be taken to minimize time and costs, such as appointing a discovery special master and adopting an expedited calendar. The provision does not authorize class or joint actions, and statutes of limitation remain tolled during the process. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.8 Settlement Offers and Offers of Judgment. At least ten (10) calendar days before the date set for the arbitration hearing, you or Zoom may serve a written offer of judgment upon the other party to allow judgment on specified terms. If the offer is accepted, the offer with proof of acceptance shall be submitted to the arbitration provider, who shall enter judgment accordingly. If the offer is not accepted prior to the arbitration hearing or within thirty (30) calendar days after it is made, whichever occurs first, it shall be deemed withdrawn, and cannot be given as evidence in the arbitration. If an offer made by one party is not accepted by the other party, and the other party fails to obtain a more favorable award, the other party shall not recover their post-offer costs and shall pay the offering party’s costs from the time of the offer (which, solely for purposes of offers of judgment, may include reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent they are recoverable by statute, in an amount not to exceed the damages awarded). | At least 10 days before the arbitration hearing, either party can make a written offer of judgment to the other party. If the offer is accepted, it will be submitted to the arbitration provider for judgment. If the offer is not accepted before the hearing or within 30 days, it is considered withdrawn and cannot be used as evidence. If an offer is rejected and the rejecting party does not receive a more favorable award, they must pay the offering party's costs, including reasonable attorney fees, up to the damages awarded. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
The parties agree that any disputes with respect to settlement offer(s) or offer(s) of judgment in a Mass Filing are to be resolved by a single arbitrator to the extent such offers contain the same material terms. For arbitrations involving represented parties, the represented parties’ attorneys agree to communicate individual settlement offer(s) or offer(s) of judgment to each and every arbitration claimant or respondent to whom such offers are extended. | If there are disputes regarding settlement offers or offers of judgment in a Mass Filing, they will be resolved by a single arbitrator if the offers have the same terms. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.9 Arbitration Costs. Except as provided for in a Mass Filing (see Section 27.7), your responsibility to pay any filing, administrative, and arbitrator costs will be solely as set forth in the applicable arbitration provider’s rules. If you have a gross monthly income of less than 300% of the federal poverty guidelines, you may be entitled to a waiver of certain arbitration costs. | Your responsibility for paying arbitration costs will be determined by the rules of the arbitration provider, except in Mass Filings. If your monthly income is below 300% of the federal poverty guidelines, you may qualify for a waiver of certain arbitration costs. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.10 Requirement to File Within One Year. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, and notwithstanding any other statute of limitations, any claim or cause of action under this Agreement (with the exception of disputes under Section 27.2(2)) must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or else that claim or cause of action will be permanently barred. The statute of limitations and any arbitration cost deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process required by Section 27.3 above. | Claims under this Agreement must be filed within one year of their occurrence, or they will be permanently barred. The statute of limitations and arbitration cost deadlines are paused during the informal dispute resolution process in Section 27.3. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.11 Opt-Out. You may reject this Arbitration Agreement and opt out of arbitration by sending an email to [email protected] within (i) thirty (30) calendar days of April 1, 2023 if you are an existing user, or (ii) thirty (30) calendar days of the date you created your account if you are a new user. Your opt-out notice must be individualized and must be sent from the email address associated with your individual Zoom account. An opt-out notice that purports to opt out multiple parties will be invalid as to all such parties. No individual (or their agent or representative) may effectuate an opt out on behalf of other individuals. Your notice to opt-out must include your first and last name, address, the email address associated with your Zoom account, and an unequivocal statement that you decline this Arbitration Agreement. If you do decide to opt out, that opt out will apply to this Arbitration Agreement and all previous versions thereof, and neither party will have the right to compel the other to arbitrate any Dispute. However, all other parts of this Arbitration Agreement will continue to apply to you, and opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may enter into in the future with us. | You can opt out of the Arbitration Agreement by sending an email to [email protected] within 30 days. Include your name, address, associated email, and a clear statement declining the Agreement. Opting out means you won't be compelled to arbitrate disputes with Zoom. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
27.12 Severability. Except as provided in Section 27.6 above, if any provision of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then that provision will be severed; however, the remaining provisions shall still apply and shall be interpreted to achieve the closest possible intent to the original intent of this section, inclusive of the severed provision. | If any part of this Arbitration Agreement is deemed illegal or unenforceable, that specific part will be removed, but the rest of the Agreement will still be valid and enforceable. The remaining provisions will be interpreted to reflect the original intent of the Agreement. | https://explore.zoom.us/en/terms/ |
