Meta updated its Llama API Terms of Service on May 29, 2026, making a minor stylistic change to a sentence describing when Meta may retain user content. The updated version removes the word 'and' before clause (ii), changing a list structure from semicolon-and-semicolon-and to semicolon-semicolon-and formatting. This is a grammatical adjustment with no operational change to Meta's content retention authority or user obligations.
The updated terms make no substantive change to when or why Meta may retain content under the Llama API agreement. The revision is a grammatical reordering of an existing clause listing three retention scenarios: legal compliance, Meta's rights under the agreement, and policy violation flags. The operational scope and effect remain identical.
This change has minimal operational significance. It is a grammatical adjustment to existing language describing Meta's content retention rights, with no effect on the actual scope or conditions under which Meta may retain developer content.
