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.
