Meet

42score
Risk level
High Risk

Weighted across nine legal categories. Lower is worse.

Executive summary

Meet Tech, Inc. imposes binding mandatory arbitration and waives your right to a jury trial or class action participation, severely limiting your ability to seek legal redress. The company retains the right to terminate your account for any reason without notice and disclaims all liability for personal injury, property damage, or event safety, placing the entire burden of risk on you. Additionally, the terms allow unilateral modification of the agreement through passive acceptance via continued use.

  • No explicit clause defining how terms are accepted (browsewrap vs clickwrap).
  • Scope is limited to 'Services' and 'Content' without broader platform definition.

Intellectual Property & UGC

Content ownership and licensing

  • Platform can use content in 'marketing, advertising, and promotional materials'.

Data collection, usage, and protection

The most alarming clause is the mandatory consent to marketing texts even if on Do Not Call lists, coupled with broad data import warranties from users.

Key findings

Limitation of Liability

Risk allocation and legal protection

18

The company disclaims all warranties ('as is') and excludes liability for almost all damages, including negligence and indirect losses. Crucially, it forces the user to indemnify the company for these same liabilities, creating a one-sided shield.

Key findings

  • Total Disclaimer: 'disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including... merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose'
  • Exclusion of Negligence: Covers 'negligence, strict liability or tort'
  • Indemnification: 'you agree to defend, indemnify and hold the Meet Parties harmless from, any loss or damages'

In no event will the Meet Parties total liability to you for all damages, losses or causes or action exceed one hundred dollars ($100.00).

Recommendations

  • Understand that you have virtually no legal recourse for service failures or data loss.
  • Use caution when relying on this service for critical activities.

Indemnification

Legal responsibility allocation

29

The indemnification clause is extremely broad, requiring users to indemnify the company for 'any loss or damages' resulting from the service, including those caused by the company's own negligence or errors. This is a severe financial risk for the user.

Key findings

  • One-Sided Indemnity: User must 'defend, indemnify and hold the Meet Parties harmless'
  • Broad Scope: Covers 'any loss or damages of any kind' related to service use, errors, omissions, and third-party actions.
