Valve Removes Arbitration Requirement From Steam Subscriber Agreement
From Consumer Action Taskforce
Jump to navigationJump to search
In September 2024, Valve removed both the individual binding arbitration requirements and class-action waiver from the Steam Subscriber Agreement, which is, essentially, Steam's End-User License Agreement.
Implications[edit | edit source]
This restores consumer rights to both court litigation and class-action lawsuits, rather than being bound to forced arbitration, for resolving disputes with Steam.
