You are not allowed to use any Netflix content or service data — including through prompting or interaction — to train, test, or build any AI or machine learning system.

This provision establishes Netflix's operational control over content use for computational purposes, preventing the service from becoming a data source for third-party or user-developed AI systems. The scope covers both direct model training and intermediate stages like prompt engineering and validation, which creates a comprehensive restriction on ML-based content analysis.
Any subscriber who uses Netflix content or service interactions to feed into an AI tool — even indirectly — may be in breach of these Terms, potentially resulting in account termination without refund.

"engage in any of the foregoing in connection with the use, creation, development, modification, prompting, fine-tuning, training, testing, benchmarking or validation of any machine learning tool, model, system, algorithm, product or other technology.— Excerpt from Netflix's Netflix Account and Content Policies
(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: This provision engages copyright law (17 U.S.C. §106 in the US; EU Copyright Directive 2019/790, Art. 3-4 on text and data mining), contract law enforceability, and emerging AI-specific regulatory frameworks including the EU AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689). Netflix's IP rights in its content underpin this restriction. The US Copyright Office's ongoing AI and copyright rulemakings are directly relevant. Primary enforcement authority lies with Netflix contractually and through civil IP litigation, with potential FTC involvement if the clause is used in a deceptive or anticompetitive manner. (2)
