Plaid added a language selector to the beginning of their Terms of Use on May 5, 2026. The document now displays a notice that users are viewing English-European Union content, with an option to switch to English-US content. This is a navigational and regional localization update with no changes to the actual terms or user obligations.
This change is a technical and navigational update with no material impact on consumer rights, data handling, or obligations. Plaid has added a language selector allowing users to view either the EU or US version of its Terms of Use. The underlying terms themselves remain unchanged.
