What this means for you

The updated terms clarify that Content now explicitly includes audio files, expand the available services to include DeepL Voice for Conversations alongside the existing Meetings offering, and add a new Model Context Protocol endpoint allowing integration with third-party AI assistant applications.

These changes do not materially restrict customer rights, data handling, or payment obligations.
