Change Summary
YouTube Ads updated metadata and formatting in its Terms of Service on April 18, 2026, refreshing the effective date from January 5, 2022 to August 15, 2022 and making minor language adjustments throughout the document. These changes appear to be primarily organizational and editorial rather than substantive shifts in user rights or platform policies. Most consumers will not experience a material change in what they are permitted or required to do under the terms.
