Databricks added a new navigation link called 'Additional Billing and Commitment Terms' to its Terms of Service index on May 5, 2026. This change makes a separate billing and commitment terms document more visible and accessible from the main terms page. The practical effect is that users and customers are now more directly pointed toward specific billing and commitment obligations that were previously harder to locate.

What this means for you

This change does not alter any substantive terms or create new obligations; it simply makes existing billing and commitment terms more discoverable by adding a direct navigation link. Users who previously had to search for or guess where billing terms were located can now find them more easily from the main terms index. No action is required, but reviewing the linked 'Additional Billing and Commitment Terms' document may help clarify what billing obligations apply to your account.

This change record describes what was added, removed, or modified in the document. Analysis reflects what the updated agreement states or permits. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
