Square reordered the list of linked documents and policies in the Australian section of its Privacy Notice. The BEFORE version listed 'Square Payment Terms' before 'Government Licenses', while the AFTER version reordered these items, moving 'Licenses' and 'Government' to appear after 'Square Data Processing Agreement' and before 'Square Payment Terms'. This is a formatting and organizational change with no material change to the policies themselves or to user rights and obligations.
