Change Summary
AWS Bedrock updated its Service Terms to introduce a new AWS (new) program and restructured billing and project management terms. The update adds new provisions governing project creation, team member access, content ownership for contributed team content, and spend limits with account suspension authority. The change also removed prior payment method requirements for Amazon Bio Discovery and AWS Builder ID, while introducing explicit spend limit enforcement mechanisms that can pause or close accounts.
