Bill overview
This bill strengthens consumer protections in California by limiting dispute resolution clauses in consumer use agreements – contracts for goods and services. It restricts these clauses to only address issues related to the actual use, payment, or provision of the good or service. The bill makes any waivers of these dispute resolution provisions invalid and ensures they are interpreted in a way that prioritizes consumer rights. It also clarifies that this law works alongside other consumer protection laws.
