AWS can immediately cut off your access to Bedrock and its AI models without warning if it believes you have broken any of the applicable rules.

This clause establishes AWS's authority to enforce compliance with its usage policies through immediate service termination, without a requirement to provide prior warning or opportunity to cure. This creates a direct enforcement mechanism tied to policy violation determinations made by AWS.
The updated terms establish new data-sharing mechanisms for users of Anthropic models on Amazon Bedrock. Specifically, AWS now explicitly authorizes notification to Anthropic of metadata present in requests sent to certain Anthropic products (e.g., Claude Code, computer use features), enabling Anthropic to conduct product-level usage attribution. Additionally, the terms introduce AWS WAF AI traffic monetization, which permits AWS to facilitate payment transactions between content publishers and buyers by sharing pricing, payment, and configuration information with payment providers and facilitators; the updated terms clarify that AWS does not provide regulated financial services and is not a party to fund flows, and that users' interactions with payment providers are governed by separate terms between the user and those parties. Users employing these features should review what metadata may be embedded in their requests and understand their own obligations to payment providers.
View change record →The updated terms establish that customers operating Amazon RDS databases on end-of-life software versions are now required to upgrade to supported versions. The agreement authorizes AWS to scan extension code used with Trusted Language Extensions for security and performance purposes, and establishes that extension code constitutes customer content. AWS disclaims responsibility for service failures caused by extensions or end-of-life database software. If a customer does not upgrade before an engine reaches end of life, AWS may snapshot the customer's data and delete the instance or cluster running the unsupported software, after providing prior notice of the engine end-of-life date.
View change record →The updated terms establish new operational requirements for any organization using Amazon Connect Talent to make or inform employment decisions. Customers must now obtain legally adequate privacy notices and consents from job applicants before their data is processed by the service. The terms require customers to review all AI output before making hiring decisions, implement processes for applicants to request information about the AI's role in decisions, and ensure their use of the tool complies with applicable labor, anti-discrimination, disability, data privacy, AI, wiretap, recordkeeping, and biometrics laws. Customers can configure an AI services opt-out policy through AWS Organizations to prevent their data from being used to train or improve AWS AI technologies.
View change record →Business customers relying on Bedrock for production AI workloads face a risk of immediate, unannounced service termination that could disrupt customer-facing applications with no guaranteed restoration process.

"We may suspend or terminate your access to Amazon Bedrock or any third-party models immediately if we determine that you have violated these Service Terms, the AWS Acceptable Use Policy, or any applicable model provider use policies.— Excerpt from AWS Bedrock's AWS Service Terms
REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: This clause engages general contract law (anticipatory breach, duty of good faith and fair dealing in applicable jurisdictions). In the EU, the Digital Services Act (Regulation 2022/2065) imposes notice and appeal requirements on platform suspensions where AWS qualifies as an intermediary service provider. UK contract law (Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977) may render an unconstrained suspension right unenforceable in certain consumer-facing contexts.
