The geographic exclusion list identifies 22 named European countries in which Paramount+ will not launch. Residents of those markets who submit their email address through this sign-up form may be providing consent for communications related to a service that will not be available to them, raising questions about the purpose and legal basis for collecting their data.
The updated terms now require all disputes with Paramount+ to be resolved through binding arbitration rather than court proceedings, and prohibit participation in class action lawsuits. This means individual users cannot join group litigation against the company and must pursue disputes through a private arbitration process, which may be more costly and less transparent than court proceedings. If you disagree with these terms, you should review the full arbitration section before continuing to use the service.
