Ford's updated privacy policy clarifies automatic renewal practices for paid plans and removes a trademark reference. The revised language now states that paid plans automatically renew until cancelled and that prices are subject to change. The policy also removed the specific reference to 'FordPass ®' branding in app login language and replaced 'purchase is required' with 'a paid plan is required' after trial expiration.
The updated terms now explicitly state that paid plans automatically renew until cancelled and that prices are subject to change. Previously, the policy required credit card activation and automatic renewal unless cancelled; the new language generalizes this to describe any paid plan renewal. The revision clarifies that after the one-year trial period, owners must select a paid plan rather than simply make a purchase. These changes standardize the language describing subscription lifecycle but do not materially alter the operational mechanics of renewal or pricing authority.
Clarified that paid plans renew automatically until cancelled; prices subject to change.
