Version history

Ford removed extensive cookie consent and privacy preference language from its Terms and Conditions. The updated document previously included detailed disclosures about cookie usage, targeted advertising, data sharing with partners, opt-out mechanisms, and support for Global Privacy Control signals. The revised version retains only a basic reference to redirect users to a separate privacy policy, eliminating the inline cookie settings, opt-out toggles, and preference management interface that were previously embedded in the terms.

Ford revised its paid plan terms for connected vehicle services. The updated language states that paid plans automatically renew until cancelled and that prices are subject to change. Previously, the terms required a credit card for plan activation and stated automatic renewal unless cancelled. Additionally, the language describing trial eligibility was changed from 'purchase is required' after the one-year trial to 'a paid plan is required,' clarifying that subscription continuation is mandatory for continued service access.

The diff provided consists primarily of technical code changes (JavaScript animation handlers and analytics tracking attributes) and promotional disclosure updates for Ford vehicle offers. The substantive changes appear to be additions of new promotional terms for a California Explorer Vehicle Day Use Annual Pass offer, including eligibility requirements, delivery deadlines (5/22/26 to 7/6/26), and pass restrictions (non-transferable, non-refundable, limit one per vehicle VIN). These are promotional disclosures rather than changes to Ford's core Terms and Conditions governing consumer rights or obligations.
