Any comments, reviews, ideas, or other communications you send to Netflix can be used by the company permanently, worldwide, and without paying you, for any purpose including developing new products.

The provision grants Netflix a broad, irrevocable, royalty-free license over all user-submitted communications, including ideas and concepts, and includes a waiver of moral rights to the extent local law allows, which may affect users in jurisdictions where moral rights are statutory and non-waivable.
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.

"Netflix is free to use any comments, information, ideas, concepts, reviews, or techniques or any other material contained in any communication you may send to us ("Feedback"), including responses to questionnaires or through postings to the Netflix service, including our websites and user interfaces, worldwide and in perpetuity without further compensation, acknowledgement or payment to you for any purpose whatsoever including developing, manufacturing and marketing products and creating, modifying or improving the Netflix service. In addition, you agree not to enforce any "moral rights" in and to the Feedback, to the extent permitted by applicable law.— Excerpt from Netflix's Netflix Terms of Use
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Where feedback contains personal data, this provision may interact with data protection frameworks including Singapore's PDPA, and for users in other jurisdictions, equivalent frameworks. The moral rights waiver may conflict with non-waivable moral rights protections in civil law jurisdictions including France, Germany, and several Southeast Asian countries. Intellectual property regulators and data protection authorities in covered jurisdictions are the primary relevant enforcement bodies. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The scope of the license is broad ('any purpose whatsoever,' 'worldwide,' 'in perpetuity') and includes a moral rights waiver, but is standard in consumer-facing digital service agreements. Where feedback incidentally contains personal data, the license grant does not override data protection obligations. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: Civil law jurisdictions with non-waivable moral rights statutes (including several covered territories) create heightened exposure for the moral rights waiver component. EU/EEA users benefit from GDPR protections that may constrain use of personal data embedded in feedback regardless of the contractual license. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise or B2B users who submit feedback containing proprietary information should be aware that the terms assert a perpetual license over such communications; this may be a contract review trigger for procurement teams evaluating vendor relationships with Netflix. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should assess whether the feedback license constitutes a data processing activity requiring disclosure under applicable data protection law, and whether the moral rights waiver language is enforceable in each covered jurisdiction.
