To complete your Account registration, you agree to provide us with complete and accurate information and to keep that information current so that we can communicate with you about your Account. We may need to send you notices about important updates (like changes to these Terms or our Privacy Policy), or to inform you of legal inquiries we receive about your use of the Service so you can make informed choices in response. We encourage you to provide your own (or your company’s) contact and billing details, including your valid, current email address, as we may use it to identify and determine the actual and true owner of the Account and/or User Content (as defined below). Webflow reserves the right to reclaim usernames on behalf of businesses or individuals that hold legal claim or trademark to those usernames.

2.5 Disputes
If there is a dispute about Account or User Content ownership, we reserve the right to determine ownership based on our reasonable judgment in our sole discretion, whether or not an independent investigation has been conducted. However, if we cannot make such a determination, we reserve the right to not intervene in the dispute, suspend any Account(s) involved in the dispute, and/or take down User Content until the parties disputing such ownership reach a resolution, without liability to you or to any other party. We may request documentation (e.g. government-issued ID, trademark certification) that may assist us in determining ownership. Below is a non-exhaustive set of factors we will consider when determining proper ownership:
- 2.5.1 Webflow will consider the owner of an Account as the person or entity who has access to the Primary Email Address for such Account.
- 2.5.2 Webflow will consider the owner of User Content as the person or entity who has access to the Primary Email Address for the Account under which such User Content was created.

If you are a client of a Website Designer and your Website Designer passes away or becomes otherwise unreachable, Webflow will be unable to transfer their Account and/or export the Website Content in their Account’s workspace to you. In such an event, Webflow will only be able to allow you to update the billing information related to the site to keep the site running. If you do not wish to update the billing information related to the site, the site will be removed if and when the billing information on file becomes inactive and payments fail after the grace period has elapsed.

If you have a Webflow Account, the Service may allow you to, among other things, publish or upload content to the Internet, including, but not limited to, website templates, blog or forum posts, images, photos, and videos. Any content you submit, post, display, or otherwise make available on or via the Service, including all Intellectual Property Rights (defined below) therein, is referred to as your “User Content.” To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to be fully responsible for the User Content that you create or submit to the Service and you further agree not to use the Service to create or submit any User Content that does not comply with the Agreement, including, but not limited to, Webflow’s Acceptable Use Policy.

Accordingly, we encourage you to archive your User Content regularly and frequently. We have no obligation to store, maintain, or provide you a copy of your User Content.

For example, when you upload a photo, you also are authorizing us to save it and display it on your site. We also have the limited right to feature your sites and content solely to promote Webflow, which you may opt out of.

3.4 Featuring your User Content and Marks

You agree to waive any claims against us relating to any moral rights, artists’ rights, or any other similar rights worldwide that you may have in or to your User Content or Marks and any right of inspection or approval of any such use. All goodwill related to the use of your Marks by Webflow will inure to the benefit of the owner of such Marks. This Section does not affect any rights you may have under applicable data protection laws. For clarity, you can revoke the licenses to Webflow to use and display your User Content and/or Marks by emailing us at contact@webflow.com to notify us.

We will use reasonable efforts to notify you prior to taking any such action unless we reasonably believe that doing so would: (a) breach the law or the direction of a legal enforcement authority, or would otherwise risk legal liability for Webflow; (b) compromise the integrity or operation of the Service; or (c) cause harm to any user, other third party, or Webflow.

4.4 End Users
- Roles. For the purposes of this Agreement, Webflow is acting as a “service provider” to you, and you are a “customer” of the Service, regardless of whether you pay fees to obtain the Service. Any natural persons accessing or using your User Content are deemed your “End Users.” You agree that Webflow does not have a direct relationship with any of your End Users and Webflow is not responsible for how you process or otherwise handle any End User information. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for ( 1 ) providing any required notices and ( 2 ) obtaining all End User consents required under applicable data protection and marketing laws.
- Applicable laws. You may have additional obligations under local law other than those described in these Terms, particularly if you or your End Users are located outside of the United States. Such obligations may be more restrictive than these Terms. Use of the Service does not ensure compliance with such laws, nor is Webflow responsible for your compliance with such laws.
- Security safeguards. You will use all reasonable efforts to protect information collected from End Users via your use of the Service, including any personal information obtained from unauthorized access or use of your Account. You are solely responsible for configuring and implementing security controls to properly manage and secure your website cookies, website headers, DNS configurations, and subdomains, as well all similarly related web attributes. In the event you discover that any End User information collected by you has been breached, compromised, or inadvertently exposed to non-authorized third parties, you shall notify Webflow promptly of such a breach or exposure including the root cause, remediation steps, and compensating controls to ensure such a breach does not occur in the future.
- Security notification. You are responsible for providing any applicable notices to your End Users, third parties, or authorities under any applicable data breach notification statutes and related laws. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for any losses, personal injury, or property damage to End Users arising from or relating to your use of the Service.
- Privacy. As set forth above, you acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for providing any required notices and obtaining all required consents from End Users in connection with your use of the Service. Your notice and consent must be compliant with all applicable data protection and security laws and regulations. Without limiting the foregoing, before collecting or using any End User information, you must provide adequate notice of the End User information you collect, how it will be used and/or shared, and obtain any necessary consents required under the applicable data protection laws and regulations. You agree to comply with all applicable data protection laws and regulations (including those applying to personal information) in connection with your access and use of the Services. You will respond to any End Users wishing to exercise their privacy rights, under the applicable law, as it relates to any information collected via your use of the Services. For example, if End Users located in certain jurisdictions may exercise a “right to be forgotten” (or “erasure”) to the information you have collected about them, you shall comply with their request as required by applicable law. For clarity, you (or, the “data controller”) are directly responsible for the End User information you instruct Webflow to process when you use the Service, including any information you instruct a third-party application (made available via the Service), to process. Webflow is not a data controller of End User information and is not responsible for responding to End Users on your behalf. To the extent Webflow receives a request from an End User or authority about your use of the Service, Webflow will notify you in compliance with or as permitted by law. To the extent that Webflow processes personal information of your End Users, Webflow does so as a “data processor” or “service provider” under applicable data protection law. If applicable, Webflow shall process your End Users’ personal information in accordance with our Data Processing Addendum, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
- Notice. You agree to provide and adhere to a privacy policy for your use of the Service that: (i) complies with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, (ii) is conspicuously displayed to all End Users, and (iii) clearly and accurately describes to End Users what information you collect (such as login information, contact form data, cookies, etc.) and how you use and share such information (including for marketing and advertising) with Webflow and other third parties.
BASICALLY...
Webflow has no relationship to the end users or website visitors of the sites you build with Webflow, so we are not responsible for how you handle their information.
So you should make sure to:
Protect the info you gather on your sites
Let people know if their data may have been accessed in the event of a security breach
Let your website visitors know what info you gather and how it will be used
Get consent to said gathering and usage
Publish a privacy policy that clearly and accurately describes the info you collect and how you’ll use it
Respond appropriately to users wishing to exercise their privacy rights, such as the right to be forgotten or have their data deleted.
4.5 Use of Software
To the extent you access or use any downloadable software components related to the Service (“Software”), such access or use shall be governed by the terms of the license agreement that accompanies the Software or is posted with the Software on the Sites where the Software can be accessed; however, if no such license agreement is made available, we grant you a limited, revocable, worldwide, royalty-free, non-assignable, non-sublicensable, and non-exclusive license to use the object code of such Software for your personal, noncommercial use in accordance with these Terms. In the event of any inconsistency between these Terms and any license agreement, the license agreement shall govern in relation to the Software.
You may not decompile, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code of the Software. You do not have the right to sublicense the Service, download or modify any portion of the Service, or resell the Service. If you violate the Terms, we reserve the right to terminate your access to the Service without notice.

These updates are designed to improve, enhance, and further develop the software and may take the form of bug fixes, enhanced functions, new software modules, and completely new versions. You agree to receive such updates (and permit us to deliver these to you with or without your knowledge) as part of your use of the Software.
5. Third-Party Services, Webflow E-Commerce, User Content, and Webflow Designers
5.1 Third-Party Services
The Service may integrate with various third party services and applications (collectively, “Third-Party Services”) that may make their content, products, or services available to you. Examples of Third-Party Services include certain domain name registration services, social media platforms, E-Commerce Payment Processors (as defined below), and other integrations or extensions, stock images and email service subscriptions for sale via the Service and other integration partners and service providers. These Third-Party Services may have their own terms and policies, and your use of them will be governed by those terms and policies. Any information that a Third-Party Service collects, stores and processes from you or your Account will be subject to such Third-Party Service’s terms of service, privacy notice, or similar terms, and will not be subject to our Privacy Policy or Data Processing Addendum. Therefore, please evaluate and ensure you trust each Third-Party Service prior to connecting Your Site to its services. Each Third-Party Service is solely responsible for providing all support, maintenance and technical assistance to you with respect to their services (including their interoperation with your Account and User Content). When using Third-Party Services, your security is your responsibility. We don't control Third-Party Services, and we’re not liable for Third-Party Services or for any transaction you may enter into with them, or for what they do. We may receive a revenue share from Third-Party Services that we recommend to you or that you otherwise engage via the Service. You agree that we may, at any time and in our sole discretion, and without any notice to you, suspend, disable access to, or remove any Third-Party Services and Webflow shall not be liable for any losses, damages, or liabilities stemming from such suspension, disabling or removal, including without limitation for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill or other intangible losses, or business disruption, costs or expenses you may incur or otherwise experience as a result (except where prohibited by applicable law).
BASICALLY...

5.2 User Content; No Responsibility of Webflow
To the extent permitted by law, you acknowledge and agree that Webflow is not undertaking and assumes no responsibility, obligation or liability relating to User Content that you or any other user or third party posts or sends via the Service. Webflow, its successors, assigns, employees, agents, directors, officers, and stockholders (i) do not undertake or assume any duty to monitor the Service for inappropriate or unlawful content and (ii) assume and shall have no responsibility or liability which may arise from your or any other user’s User Content, including, but not limited to, third-party claims for defamation, libel, slander, infringement, invasion of privacy and publicity rights, obscenity, pornography, profanity, fraud, or misrepresentation. You agree that you are solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of posting or publishing it, and that Webflow is only acting as a passive conduit and service provider for the online distribution and publication of your User Content. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Webflow reserves the right to take down User Content at any time in our sole discretion.
For the avoidance of doubt, we have not reviewed, and cannot review, all of the User Content published to or made available through the Service by our users or anyone else. We are not responsible for and do not necessarily hold the opinions expressed by our customers, users, content contributors, and third parties; such opinions and other statements are theirs alone, not opinions of Webflow. User Content created by users or third parties is the sole responsibility of such users or third parties and its accuracy and completeness are not endorsed or guaranteed. You may find certain User Content offensive, indecent, or objectionable; includes technical inaccuracies, typographical mistakes, or other errors; or violates or infringes the privacy, publicity rights, intellectual property rights, or other proprietary rights of third parties. We do not endorse any User Content or represent that any User Content is accurate, useful, or not harmful.
BASICALLY...
Webflow customers can add a range of content to our platform. Webflow is not responsible for any user or any content that you or any other user or third party posts or sends through our platform.

You expressly release us from any and all liability arising from your use of any third-party website.
BASICALLY...
Webflow links to a lot of third-party sites that have their own terms of service, which are distinct from ours.
5.4 Designers and work on Webflow
Webflow posts lists of designers for hire at https://webflow.com/designers/hire and https://experts.webflow.com. These lists are purely for informational purposes and Webflow does not endorse, work with, recommend, or guarantee any of these designers or the accuracy or completeness of the work done by such designer(s). You agree it is your responsibility to vet any designer before you work with them and that you assume all liability for any work done by them. Webflow shall make a good faith effort to investigate designers who receive multiple complaints from multiple users, but Webflow does not guarantee that they will investigate such complaints brought forth by users.
Webflow posts a list of templates created by users of the Service at https://webflow.com/templates. These templates are not created by Webflow. While Webflow makes a good faith effort to vet the templates that are posted on https://webflow.com/templates, Webflow does not endorse or guarantee the quality of these templates. If a problem arises with a template, it is the responsibility of the creator of such template to offer technical support. Such creator assumes all responsibility and liability in connection with your use of the template.
BASICALLY...
We provide a list of designers for hire. We have not vetted these designers, so please do that yourself before hiring anyone.
We provide templates that are created by other users and we can’t guarantee the quality of these templates. Reach out to the creator if you need help. Every template page has an area where you can comment and ask for help!

Users will be responsible for paying all applicable fees related to their use of the Service (the “Fees”). You are solely responsible for all federal, state, and local taxes, including sales, use, VAT, or similar transaction taxes imposed on your paid subscription to the Service, unless you provide Webflow with a valid tax exemption certificate (“Taxes”). All Taxes payable by you will be separately stated and exclusive of the Fees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will have no liability for taxes that are statutorily imposed on Webflow, including taxes or fees based on Webflow’s net or gross income.
All paid plans must enter a valid payment account. Free accounts are not required to provide payment account information. We will immediately bill you upon any upgrade from the free plan to any paying plan.
For monthly payment plans, the Service is billed in advance on a monthly basis and is non-refundable. There will be no refunds or credits for partial months of service, upgrade/downgrade refunds, or refunds for months unused with an open account.
For annual payment plans, the Service is billed up front for one ( 1 ) year subscription periods and is non-refundable. Your annual plan will automatically renew for successive one ( 1 ) year subscription periods, and you will be charged the applicable Fees on each annual anniversary of your purchase, unless you cancel your Account plan prior to the end of the then-current annual term. There will be no refunds or credits for partial terms of service, upgrade/downgrade refunds, or refunds for unused terms with an open account.
Certain credits may apply when you purchase an upgrade to the Service or switch from a monthly plan to an annual payment plan.
If you have separately executed an order form or related ordering document (“Order Form”), your access and use of the Service will be governed by the terms of such Order Form. For clarity, an Order Form may be subject to these Terms or Webflow’s Master Subscription Agreement (“MSA”) depending on the provisions of your Order Form. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you convert your Account to an Enterprise account, your workspace(s) will be migrated to an Enterprise account and will be subject to the terms of the Order Form starting from the date of the execution of the Order Form. If you intentionally or unintentionally add non-Enterprise website(s) (“Self-Serve Websites”) to your Enterprise workspace using a payment method other than the payment method specified in the Order Form, any Self-Serve Websites will be subject to the payment terms set forth in the Order Form and billed as Enterprise Site Plans once added to your Enterprise workspace.
To the extent your use of the Service exceeds the usage limits provided for in your payment plan (as set forth on https://webflow.com/pricing) or the applicable Order Form, including but not limited to the usage categories of monthly visits, bandwidth, and API requests per minute, Webflow reserves the right to charge you prorated overage fees for any such excessive use, require you bring your usage within the allotted parameters of your current plan, and/or require you upgrade to a new plan to increase your usage limits, in Webflow’s sole discretion. If you do not comply with such requirements within 30 days from Webflow’s initial written notice to you (email acceptable) regarding such excessive usage, Webflow may suspend or limit your access to the Service, in whole or in part, for breaching these Terms.
We reserve the right to change our fees and to institute new charges at any time (including, for clarity, for any renewal), upon notice to you via email notice, written or hard copy notice, or through posting of such notice on our website, as determined by Webflow in our sole discretion. Your use of the Service following such notification constitutes your acceptance of any new or increased fees.

Like other products, some of our services have fees where noted. You are responsible for paying these and any associated taxes. We don’t provide refunds.

The E-Commerce Payment Processor is a third party service, as described in Section 5 of the Terms. The E-Commerce Payment Processor may provide invoices for any transaction fees associated with your E-Commerce Activities.

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to modify, update, or change these Terms from time to time (such modified Terms, the "Updated Terms"), so we encourage you to review this page periodically. Notwithstanding, when we change the Agreement in a material manner, we will update the “Last Modified” date at the top of this page and use reasonable efforts to provide you with reasonable advance notice before the Updated Terms become effective. Webflow may provide such notifications, whether the notifications are required by law or are for marketing or other business-related purposes, to you via email notice, written or hard copy notice, or through posting of such notice on the Service, as determined by Webflow in our sole discretion. We reserve the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to our users, provided that you may opt out of certain means of notification by contacting us at contact@webflow.com. You may be required to click-to-accept or otherwise agree to these Updated Terms, but in any event your continued use or access of the Service after the effective date of the Updated Terms (or engaging in such other conduct as we may reasonably specify) constitutes your agreement to the Updated Terms. Therefore, you should review these Terms and any Updated Terms before using the Service. Updated Terms will be effective as of the date specified in the “Last Modified” date at the top of this page, and will apply to your use of the Service from that point forward. The previous Terms (or Updated Terms) will govern any disputes arising before the effective date of the applicable Updated Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms or any future Updated Terms, you may not use or access (and must discontinue any use or access to) the Service.

17. Dispute resolution
17.1 INFORMAL NEGOTIATIONS
To expedite resolution and reduce the cost of any dispute, controversy or claim related to this Agreement (“Dispute”), you agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding. Such informal negotiations will commence upon your written notice to Webflow. Your address for any notices under the Agreement is your billing address, with an email copy to the email address you have provided to Webflow. Webflow’s address for such notices is Webflow, Inc., 398 11th St., Floor 2, San Francisco, CA 94103.
17.2 BINDING ARBITRATION
If you and Webflow are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, all claims arising from use of the Service (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party will be final and binding on the other. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT IF EITHER PARTY ELECTS TO ARBITRATE, NEITHER PARTY WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration will be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation will be governed by the AAA Rules (and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules). If your claim for damages does not exceed $10,000, Webflow will pay all such fees unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, you and Webflow may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
17.3 EXCEPTIONS TO ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Each party retains the right to bring an individual action in small claims court or to seek injunctive or other equitable relief on an individual basis in a federal or state court located within the Central District of California with respect to any dispute related to the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s intellectual property or proprietary rights.
17.4 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO BE A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN A PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING
You and Webflow agree that any arbitration will be limited to the Dispute between Webflow and you individually. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU AND Webflow ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Webflow otherwise agree, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this “Dispute Resolution” Section will be deemed null and void.
17.5 LOCATION OF ARBITRATION
Arbitration will take place in San Francisco, California. You and Webflow agree that for any Dispute not subject to arbitration (other than claims proceeding in any small claims court), or where no election to arbitrate has been made, the California state and Federal courts located in San Francisco, California have exclusive jurisdiction and you and Webflow agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.
BASICALLY...
We don’t want to fight. If something goes wrong, contact us and we'll try to amicably solve the problem. If that doesn’t work, we will figure it out in arbitration in San Francisco.
18. US Economic Sanctions
You may not use the Service if you are a resident of a country embargoed by the United States, or are a foreign person or entity blocked or denied by the United States government. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you (i) are not located or residing in any country or territory subject to comprehensive US sanctions (currently Cuba, Crimea, Iran, North Korea, Donetsk People’s Republic, Luhansk People’s Republic, and Syria); (ii) are not listed on any United States list of prohibited or restricted parties, such as OFAC’s Specially Designated Nationals and Persons List, or otherwise subject to US sanctions that would prohibit your access to or use of the Service; and (iii) shall not use or allow access by any of your customers or potential customers (if applicable) to the Service in any manner that may cause Webflow to violate US export controls and sanctions. We reserve the right to restrict or block your access, or access by any of your End Users, to the Service and/or to terminate the Agreement at any time without notice if we determine, at our sole discretion, that such access may cause a violation or create unacceptable risk to us under export controls or sanctions.
BASICALLY...
Webflow’s ability to provide the Service to you is subject to compliance with US sanctions that restrict or prohibit who or from where the Service can be accessed.
19. Miscellaneous
19.1 Assignment
Neither you nor Webflow may assign, transfer, or sublicense this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the other party’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that Webflow may assign the Agreement in its discretion (including applicable Order Forms) to an Affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets.
19.2 Governing law, international use, and users

19.3 Entire agreement/severability

The Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and lawful assigns.
19.4 No waiver
Any failure by us to enforce or exercise any provisions of the Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our rights to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.
19.5 Attorneys’ and accountants’ fees, remedies
In any action to enforce the Term, the prevailing party shall be entitled to attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and costs.
You agree that Webflow's remedy at law for any actual or threatened breach of this Agreement would be inadequate and that Webflow shall be entitled to specific performance or injunctive relief, or both, in addition to any damages that Webflow may be legally entitled to recover, together with reasonable expenses of any form of dispute resolution, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees.
No right or remedy of Webflow shall be exclusive of any other, whether at law or in equity, including without limitation damages injunctive relief, attorneys' fees, and expenses.
No instance of waiver by Webflow of its rights or remedies under these terms and conditions shall imply any obligation to grant any similar, future, or other waiver.
BASICALLY...
Webflow’s ability to provide the Service to you is subject to compliance with US sanctions that restrict or prohibit who or from where the Service can be accessed.
