Event Summary

OpenRouter updated its Terms of Service on July 19, 2026, changing the contact email address for customer support, account security concerns, model terms issues, and account termination from [email protected] to support@openrouter.ai. Additionally, the document added navigation links for 'Sign Up' to the header. These are administrative updates to contact information; the substantive rights and obligations stated in the terms remain unchanged.
