The updated Terms and Conditions remove inline cookie consent disclosures, preference toggles, and opt-out mechanisms that were previously embedded in the document. Users are now directed to a separate privacy policy for information about cookies, tracking technologies, data sharing with advertising and analytics partners, and opt-out options. The removal of the inline Cookie Preference Center and Global Privacy Control documentation means these controls are no longer described within the terms themselves, though Ford states they remain available through the redirected privacy policy.
