Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Netflix's Terms of Use establish that all subscription fees are non-refundable including for unused periods, that Netflix can charge any payment method linked to your account if your primary method fails, and that class action lawsuits against Netflix are waived where local law allows. Members are prohibited from sharing their account beyond their household unless their plan specifically permits it. You can cancel your membership anytime via the Account page at netflix.com, which stops future charges at the end of your current billing cycle.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

The offer of remote access support with 'full access to your computer' is a significant data access risk — it is broader than typical customer support and could expose personal files, browsing history, or other sensitive data stored on your device.

View original clause language
In certain instances, Customer Service may best be able to assist you by using a remote access support tool through which we have full access to your computer. If you do not want us to have this access, you should not consent to support through the remote access tool, and we will assist you through other means.
