Zapier Acceptable Use Policy
Effective Date: October 15, 2025
We modified the Zapier Acceptable Use Policy (“AUP”) to incorporate acceptable use policies of our subprocessors, including AI LLM subprocessors. If you don’t agree with these modifications, your sole remedy is to cease using the Service immediately. Your continued use of the Service automatically constitutes your acceptance of this updated AUP.
You may review the prior version of the Zapier AUP here.
Zapier provides our customers with the most connected AI orchestration platform. Our customers and partners rely on the Service to automate critical parts of their business. To ensure continued reliability, everyone must access and use Zapier Service in ways that don’t abuse our Service. This AUP serves as a guide for what we consider abuse of our Service.

Bypass security, safety, or billing systems: bypass or attempt to circumvent use limitations, billing triggers, security mechanisms, or safety filters established by Zapier or a Third Party.
