Vimeo’s video license permits distribution subject to your settings

When you submit a video, Vimeo may stream, embed, distribute, or make it available for download, subject to your selected privacy and sharing settings.

This license applies when you submit a video to Vimeo.

Feedback you submit can be used indefinitely without payment

If you give Vimeo feedback, it receives a perpetual, irrevocable license to use and share it in any manner without compensating you.

This applies if you submit comments, suggestions, or other feedback about the services.

A share link can make a private video viewable by anyone with it

Creating a shareable link overrides your video privacy settings, and embedding a video on a public website allows the public to view it.

This applies if you create a shareable link or embed the video on a publicly available website.

You retain ownership of the content you submit

The Terms say you retain intellectual-property ownership of the content you submit to Vimeo.

When a paid subscription ends, Vimeo may delete account content

The account may revert to free or be deleted, and Vimeo may delete content that exceeds the new status's limits.

This applies when a subscription ends.

Vimeo may end or restrict access after a Terms breach

If you breach the Terms, Vimeo may terminate immediately, with or without advance notice, or suspend, delete, or limit access to accounts or content.

This applies if you breach the Agreement.

The terms require individual arbitration for covered privacy claims

For defined privacy claims, the terms require binding individual arbitration unless you opt out within 30 days; separate terms waive class proceedings and jury trials.

This arbitration requirement applies to the Terms' defined Covered Privacy Claims.

The terms specify New York courts for disputes outside privacy claims

For other disputes, the terms specify exclusive courts in New York County or the Southern District of New York, potentially requiring litigation there.

This venue provision excludes the Terms' defined Covered Privacy Claims.

The terms seek to cap Vimeo’s liability for many claims

To the extent permitted by law, the terms exclude several damage types and cap total liability at the greater of prior-year payments or $100.

For direct Self-Serve purchases, the stated refund window for an initial plan purchase is 14 days for annual plans and 3 days for monthly plans; renewals and post-trial fees are excluded.

This stated refund policy applies to Self-Serve subscribers who purchase plans directly from Vimeo.
