Target's website updated how it displays promotional content on its terms page. The change removed a reference to 'Sponsored' content and replaced it with a list of shopping categories and promotional links (Easter, Easter Basket Ideas, Health & Wellness, Game Day Hosting, Gift Ideas, Target New Arrivals, Deals, and Sponsored). This appears to be a formatting or content organization change on the website rather than a substantive change to Target's legal terms or consumer obligations.

What this means for you

This change appears to be a website layout or formatting update rather than a substantive modification to Target's terms and conditions. The removal of one 'Sponsored' label and replacement with a list of promotional categories does not alter consumer rights, obligations, or data practices. No consumer action is required in response to this change.
