THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED \"AS IS.\" WE ALSO\nDISCLAIM ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR\nPURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. Some places don’t allow the disclaimers in this\nparagraph, so they may not apply to you. For example, these disclaimers do not override the\nlegal protections, including statutory warranties, granted to consumers by EU law.\nLimitation of Liability\n\nWE DON’T EXCLUDE OR LIMIT OUR LIABILITY TO YOU WHERE IT WOULD BE ILLEGAL\nTO DO SO—THIS INCLUDES ANY LIABILITY FOR DROPBOX’S OR ITS AFFILIATES’\nFRAUD OR FRAUDULENT MISREPRESENTATION IN PROVIDING THE SERVICES.

IF YOU ARE AN EU OR UK CONSUMER, THESE TERMS\nDO NOT EXCLUDE DROPBOX’S LIABILITY FOR LOSSES AND DAMAGES THAT ARE A\nRESULT OF OUR FAILURE TO USE REASONABLE CARE AND SKILL IN PROVIDING THE\nSERVICES OR OF OUR BREACH OF OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU, AS LONG AS THOSE\nLOSSES AND DAMAGES ARE REASONABLY FORESEEABLE.\nIN COUNTRIES WHERE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY ARE ALLOWED,\nDROPBOX, ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS OR DISTRIBUTORS WON’T BE LIABLE FOR:\n1. ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR\nCONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR\n2.

THIS PROVISION DOES NOT APPLY TO EU CONSUMERS\nWHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW.\nResolving Disputes\nLet’s Try to Sort Things Out First. We want to address your concerns without needing a\nformal legal case. Before filing a claim against Dropbox, you agree to try to resolve the\ndispute informally by sending us a written Notice of Dispute at [email protected]\nthat includes your name, a detailed description of the dispute, and the relief you seek. We’ll\ntry to resolve the dispute informally by contacting you via email. If a dispute is not resolved\nwithin 60 days after submission, you or Dropbox may bring a formal proceeding. If you reside\n\nin the EU, the European Commission provides for an online dispute resolution platform,\nwhich you can access here: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.\nJudicial Forum for Disputes. You and Dropbox agree that any judicial proceeding to resolve\nclaims relating to these Terms or the Services will be brought in the federal or state courts of\nSan Francisco County, California, subject to the mandatory arbitration provisions below. Both\nyou and Dropbox consent to venue and personal jurisdiction in such courts. If you reside in a\ncountry (for example, a member state of the European Union) with laws that give consumers\nthe right to bring disputes in their local courts, this paragraph doesn’t affect those\nrequirements.\nIF YOU’RE A U.S. RESIDENT, YOU ALSO AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING MANDATORY\nARBITRATION PROVISIONS:\nWe Both Agree to Arbitrate. You and Dropbox agree to resolve any claims relating to\nthese Terms or the Services through final and binding individual arbitration by a\nsingle arbitrator, except as set forth under the “Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate”\nbelow. This includes disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation or\napplication of this “Mandatory Arbitration Provisions” section, including its scope,\nenforceability, revocability, or validity. The arbitrator may award relief only individually\nand only to the extent necessary to redress your individual claim(s); the arbitrator may\nnot award relief on behalf of others or the general public.\nOpt out of Agreement to Arbitrate. You can decline this agreement to arbitrate by\nclicking here and submitting the opt-out form within 30 days of first registering your\naccount or agreeing to these Terms. However, if you agreed to a previous version of\nthese Terms that allowed you to opt out of arbitration, your previous choice to opt out\nor not opt out remains binding.\nArbitration Procedures. The American Arbitration Association (AAA) will administer\nthe arbitration under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The AAA’s rules and filing\ninstructions are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. The\narbitration will be held in the United States county where you live or work, San\nFrancisco (CA), or any other location we agree to.\nArbitration Fees and Incentives. The AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration\nfees. For individual arbitration of non-frivolous claims less than $75,000 for which you\ntimely provided Dropbox with a Notice of Dispute, Dropbox will reimburse arbitration\nfiling fees at the conclusion of the arbitration and will pay other arbitration fees. For\nall other claims, the costs and fees of arbitration shall be allocated in accordance with\nthe arbitration provider’s rules, including rules regarding frivolous or improper claims.\nIf you receive an arbitration award that is more favorable than any offer we make to\nresolve the claim, we will pay you $1,000 in addition to the award. Dropbox will not\nseek its attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that\nyour claim is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose.\nExceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate. Either you or Dropbox may assert claims, if they\nqualify, in small claims court in San Francisco (CA) or any United States county\nwhere you live or work. Either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to\n\nstop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services, or intellectual property infringement\n(for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first\nengaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above. If\nthe agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to you or your claim, you agree to the\nexclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in San Francisco County,\nCalifornia to resolve your claim.\nNO CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS. You may only resolve disputes with us\non an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a\nclass, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private\nattorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren’t allowed.\nSeverability. If any part of this “Mandatory Arbitration Provisions” section is found to\nbe illegal or unenforceable, the remainder will remain in effect, except that if a finding\nof partial illegality or unenforceability would allow class or representative arbitration,\nthis “Mandatory Arbitration Provisions” section will be unenforceable in its entirety. If\nyou are found to have a non-waivable right to bring a particular claim or to request a\nparticular form of relief that the arbitrator lacks authority to redress or award\naccording to this “Mandatory Arbitration Provisions” section, including public\ninjunctive relief, then only that respective claim or request for relief may be brought in\ncourt, and you and we agree that litigation of any such claim or request for relief shall\nbe stayed pending the resolution of any individual claim(s) or request(s) for relief in\narbitration.\nControlling Law\nThese Terms will be governed by California law except for its conflicts of laws principles.\nHowever, some countries (including those in the European Union) have laws that require\nagreements to be governed by the local laws of the consumer's country. This paragraph\ndoesn’t override those laws.\nEntire Agreement\nThese Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Dropbox with respect to the\nsubject matter of these Terms, and supersede and replace any other prior or\ncontemporaneous agreements, or terms and conditions applicable to the subject matter of\nthese Terms. Our past, present, and future affiliates and agents can invoke our rights under\nthis agreement in the event they become involved in a dispute with you. Otherwise, these\nTerms do not give rights to any third parties.\nWaiver, Severability & Assignment\nDropbox’s failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of its right to do so later. If a provision\nis found unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Terms will remain in full effect and\nan enforceable term will be substituted reflecting our intent as closely as possible. You may\nnot assign any of your rights under these Terms, and any such attempt will be void. Dropbox\nmay assign its rights to any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, or to any successor in interest of\nany business associated with the Services.\nModifications\n\nWe may revise these Terms from time to time to better reflect:\n1. changes to the law,\n2. new regulatory requirements, or\n3. improvements or enhancements made to our Services.\nIf an update affects your use of the Services or your legal rights as a user of our Services,\nwe’ll notify you prior to the update's effective date by sending an email to the email address\nassociated with your account or via an in-product notification. These updated terms will be\neffective no less than 30 days from when we notify you.\nIf you don’t agree to the updates we make, please cancel your account and stop using the\nServices before the updated Terms become effective. Where applicable, we’ll offer you a\nprorated refund based on the amounts you have prepaid for Services and your account\ncancellation date. By continuing to use or access the Services after the updates come into\neffect, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms.\nDropbox\nDesktop app\nMobile app\nIntegrations\nFeatures\nSolutions\nDo more than store\nSecurity\nAdvance access\nProducts\nPlus\nProfessional\nBusiness\nEnterprise\nHelloSign\nDocSend\nPlans\nSupport\nHelp center\nContact us\nPrivacy & terms\nCookie policy\nCookies & CCPA preferences\nCommunity\nBlog\nDevelopers\nCommunity forums\nReferrals\n","paragraphs":null,"sentences":null},"annotations":[{"general_category":"Limitation of remedy clauses","name":"Limitation of company's liability","legal_ground":"Annex 1(a) Directive 93/13","code":"ltd","score":0,"explanation":"Lawful limitation - any other than unlawful limitation, for example \"Provided that we have acted with professional diligence, we do not accept responsibility for losses not caused by our breach of these Terms\""},{"general_category":"Limitation of remedy clauses","name":"Maximal threshold of company's liability","legal_ground":"Annex 1(a) Directive 93/13","code":"ltd_cap","score":-1,"explanation":"Everyone entitled to the damages connected with using the service may claim them only to a certain amount"},{"general_category":"Limitation of remedy clauses","name":"Limitation period","legal_ground":"art. 119 KC*****","code":"period","score":0,"explanation":"The ToS does not contain a clause described above"},{"general_category":"Limitation of remedy clauses","name":"No promises","legal_ground":"Article 8 Directive 2019/770","code":"as_is","score":-1,"explanation":"Presence of as-is clause.

REQUIREMENTS FOR USE OF THE SERVICE\nA. Age. The Service is only available to individuals aged 13 years or older (or equivalent minimum age in the\nrelevant jurisdiction), unless you are under 13 years old and your Apple ID was provided to you as a result of a\nrequest by an approved educational institution or established as part of the Family Sharing feature by your parent\nor guardian. We do not knowingly collect, use or disclose personal information from children under 13, or\nequivalent minimum age in the relevant jurisdiction, without verifiable parental consent. Parents and guardians\nshould also remind any minors that conversing with strangers on the Internet can be dangerous and take\nappropriate precautions to protect children, including monitoring their use of the Service.\nTo use the Service, you cannot be a person barred from receiving the Service under the laws of the United States\nor other applicable jurisdictions, including the country in which you reside or from where you use the Service. By\naccepting this Agreement, you represent that you understand and agree to the foregoing.\nB. Devices and Accounts. Use of the Service may require compatible devices, Internet access, and certain\nsoftware (fees may apply); may require periodic updates; and may be affected by the performance of these\nfactors.
