Snap

Snap's Terms of Service govern Snapchat, Bitmoji, and related services, with concerning provisions that go beyond industry standards. Most notably, Snap claims a "perpetual" and "irrevocable" license to any content you post publicly, meaning they can use your photos and videos commercially forever, even after you delete your account. The company limits its liability to just $100 or what you paid in the past 12 months, leaving users with little recourse if something goes seriously wrong. Like most social platforms, Snap requires binding arbitration for disputes and prohibits class action lawsuits, making it harder to challenge problematic practices. Your conversations and content can be used to train AI systems like My AI. While Snap does have some user-friendly policies like clear age verification and data export options, the overly broad content licensing and minimal liability protection make these terms more aggressive than competitors. Users who frequently post public content should be especially cautious about the permanent licensing rights they're granting.
