OpenAI updated its Service Terms effective June 2, 2026, adding new sections governing Licensed Materials (software and code downloaded to customer systems) and ChatGPT Sites (a website-building feature). The Licensed Materials section establishes a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license for use solely on customer systems in accordance with the agreement, with restrictions on modification, redistribution, and sublicensing. The ChatGPT Sites section references separate terms governing website creation and publication. Additionally, the terms clarified language around GPT sharing and third-party GPT disclaimers through minor textual adjustments.
Enterprise customers: If you download software or code from OpenAI, you can only use it as permitted, cannot change or share it, and must delete it when your service ends.
The updated terms establish new licensing terms for software and code that customers may download and install on their own systems (Licensed Materials). Under the revised language, customers receive a limited, non-exclusive license to copy, install, and use Licensed Materials solely on their systems and in accordance with the agreement. The license is non-transferable and non-sublicensable, and customers may not modify, redistribute, or sublicense the materials. Upon termination of the service, customers must permanently delete all Licensed Materials and copies. The terms also introduce ChatGPT Sites, a feature for creating and publishing websites, which is governed by separate terms referenced in the agreement.
→ Review the separate ChatGPT Sites Terms if you plan to use the website-building feature.
→ If you download Licensed Materials (software or code), ensure your use complies with the non-modification and non-sublicensing restrictions stated in the updated terms.
