You are prohibited from using Netflix content or service outputs in connection with training, building, testing, or evaluating any AI or machine learning system or model.

This clause explicitly extends the general usage restrictions to cover AI and machine learning activities, meaning any use of Netflix content or service interactions to develop, fine-tune, benchmark, or validate AI models is prohibited under the terms.
The updated terms now require users to resolve most disputes with Netflix through binding arbitration rather than in court, unless users exercise a time-limited right to opt out. Under the revised language, disputes will not be decided by a judge or jury. The terms state that Section 6 contains full details of this requirement. You can review Section 6 to understand your opt-out rights and the time period available to exercise them.
View change record →The updated terms introduce a new account category called 'Extra Members,' described as users who do not live in the same household as the Account Owner, available where the feature is offered. The terms now explicitly require that any person creating a Netflix account must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in their jurisdiction. The revised language also clarifies that some Netflix content and features may be accessed without creating an account or providing a payment method, while other options require a subscription. These changes formalize previously implicit account structures and establish age-gated account creation.
View change record →The updated Terms of Use clarify how Netflix membership operates and what users authorize by continuing service. The revised language explicitly defines the Netflix service as a personalized subscription enabling discovery and access to content, and states that membership continues until terminated and that Netflix may charge the user's payment method on each billing cycle unless the user cancels before the billing date. The updated terms no longer include the prior version's prominent language describing mandatory arbitration requirements and dispute resolution procedures, creating a material gap in documented dispute resolution authority compared to the previous terms.
View change record →Researchers, developers, or users who access the Netflix service and attempt to use its content or service outputs in AI-related activities including model training, benchmarking, or testing are in breach of these terms and may have their access terminated.

"(ix) 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 Terms of Use
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision does not directly implicate a specific regulatory framework but is relevant to intellectual property law (copyright in streamed content), contract law, and potentially the EU AI Act for entities operating in the EU/EEA that source training data from streaming services. Enforcement would primarily proceed through contract law and copyright infringement claims rather than a specific regulatory body. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: High for any enterprise, research institution, or developer that accesses the service and conducts AI-related work. The clause is explicit and covers a broad range of activities including 'prompting,' 'fine-tuning,' 'benchmarking,' and 'validation,' which extends beyond simple scraping to cover more indirect AI development activities. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA-based entities subject to the EU AI Act and its training data provenance requirements face heightened exposure. Academic or research users in any jurisdiction who may claim fair use or fair dealing exceptions should note that this contractual restriction operates independently of, and may conflict with, statutory exceptions under applicable copyright law; legal teams should assess whether contractual override of statutory exceptions is enforceable in their jurisdiction. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Technology companies, AI developers, or research institutions evaluating Netflix as a data source for AI development should treat this clause as a definitive contractual barrier. Procurement and vendor assessment teams at organizations that have enterprise Netflix accounts should verify that the organization's AI development activities do not inadvertently implicate this restriction. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Organizations with AI governance programs should include this provision in their training data sourcing policies and ensure that employees with Netflix access understand the restriction applies to professional AI development activities conducted through or using the service.
