Event Summary

Square reorganized the list of linked terms and policies that appear at the end of their main Terms of Service. Specific documents were reordered: 'Square Payment Terms' and 'Licenses' moved to different positions in the list, and 'Square Savings Deposit Account Terms', 'Afterpay Merchant Terms of Service', and several others were repositioned. This is a formatting and organizational change with no material alteration to the substantive terms themselves or the operative waiver language that precedes the list.

LOW

Consumer Impact

This change affects the organizational structure of Square's linked policy documentation but does not alter the substantive terms or operative rights. The waiver clause itself remains unchanged. Users will find the same policies referenced, but in a different order within the document.

Governance Analysis

This change does not materially affect the terms or obligations governing Square users. The reordering of linked policy references is a documentation organization matter only; substantive rights, protections, and responsibilities remain unchanged.

Key Clauses Affected

waiver clause

Remains unchanged; no waiver of terms deemed further or continuing waiver.
