YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties’ Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void."
Prohibits each party from bringing claims in a class, representative, or consolidated capacity, restricts the arbitrator from consolidating claims or presiding over representative proceedings, and provides that unenforceability of this provision voids the entire dispute resolution section.

You further agree that we may collect interest at the lesser of 1.5% per month or the highest amount permitted by law on any amounts not paid when due. Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Pricing Plan, you may cancel your Paid Subscription at any time. If you cancel your Paid Subscription, you will not be billed for any additional further periods, and your Paid Subscription will continue until the end of the then-current Paid Subscription term following which your Account shall revert to a free Account, subject otherwise to these Terms of Service. If you cancel your Paid Subscription, you will not receive a refund of any amounts which you have already paid, or be relieved of your obligation to pay amounts due."

Dates state when our pipeline captured and verified each document — not when the vendor last changed it. Documents are re-scanned on a recurring cadence; a document verified once says so until a re-scan confirms it again.
↑ 165 more findings this quarter vs last (185 vs 20). First scan: June 2026.

Need this for procurement or legal diligence?
Free shows today's risk. A Stack Audit gives you a citable, verbatim-sourced PDF across your whole AI stack — and flags the moment a vendor's terms change.
Know where the missing document lives?
We haven't yet verified Elicit's Privacy Policy. Point us at the official page and our pipeline will attempt to capture and read it in full. Submissions are candidates only — nothing is published until it passes the same verification gates as every other document on this site.
Every finding above is a verbatim quote from Elicit's own published policy, captured to an immutable snapshot and read in full through a two-gate verification pipeline. Confidence labels and any analysis are AI-generated and informational only — not legal advice.
