Writer's Terms of Service was updated on May 21, 2026, with one sentence modified in the navigation or resource menu section. The change involved restructuring resource links, adding 'WRITER Academy' to the resources section, and reorganizing the placement of 'Events & webinars'. This appears to be a formatting and content organization update rather than a substantive change to contractual obligations or consumer rights.
This change does not materially affect the contractual terms or operational obligations consumers face when using Writer's platform. The update reorganizes navigation resources and adds a new Academy resource link but does not modify service terms, data practices, fees, or user rights. No action is required by consumers.
This change does not affect the substantive terms of Writer's service, consumer rights, or compliance obligations. The reorganization of resource links and addition of WRITER Academy is a navigation update without operational implications for how the service functions or what terms apply to users.

Expands prohibited conduct to explicitly address scraping, automated access, and bot activity, reflecting operational concerns not addressed in the previous generic content restrictions.
