The lawyers who wrote the language you quote meant only for it to be used against consumers -- and especially consumer class actions. If a business-cardholder were to sue the company for violating the regulations meant to protect consumers, the company would use the language you quoted as a defense in the case.

Still, I will not give you a hard sell on signing up for a business credit card. Leave that to the rest of us here, and we'll handle all of the sign-up bonuses, 3x travel points and the like.
