Amazon Reinstates Binding Arbitration, Bars Class-Action Lawsuits in Updated Terms

Amazon updated its Conditions of Use on August 14, 2026 to require binding individual arbitration for all customer disputes, reversing a prior removal of such provisions. A class-action waiver limits proceedings to individual claims, barring representative and public injunctive relief. The terms take effect automatically through continued use of Amazon services, with no separate opt-in required.
